Oh my god! I'm addicted to crisps I can't stop, had this craving throughout but now I'm 8 months I'm still going, especially salt & vinegar.... what's your cravings? Or cravings you've had in previous pregnancies, so interested to know!

I'm only 7 weeks and the last week I can't stop thinking about roast lamb and gravy pretty much constantly 😂This is strange because not only has it been close to 30 degrees and definately not the weather for a roast, i've never been that fond of lamb. Also unfortunately a very difficult (and EXPENSIVE!) craving to fufil

I am also a crisp lover this pregnancy. I'm obsessed with salt and vinegar chipsticks at the moment, I can't get enough! Thank heavens sell share bags x

Oranges!

I had Hyperemesis but all I wanted to eat throughout was green apples (the more sour the better), avocados, ready salted crisps, biting into cold lemons, my husband would find random lemons in the fridge and freezer with teeth marks in 😂 icy apple and blackcurrant squash x

In my first pregnancy that ended in mmc I really wanted Chinese and curry sauce. In my second pregnancy that resulted in ds absolutely nothing, no cravings throughout the pregnancy.

Meat.All the meat.
Kebabs,mcdonalds,hotdogs,pie.
I had a boy.

Oranges by the net full, and really cold milk by the pint. I wouldn't drink a pint of milk before or since if you paid me!

Littlelighthouse · 30/06/2023 19:34

With my son it was mini cheddars and milk 😂
With my daughter is was everything and anything sweet 🎂

Whattodo112222 · 30/06/2023 19:35

Ritz crackers, chips with salt and diet lemonade

17caterpillars1mouse · 30/06/2023 19:35

Sausage rolls. The cheaper the better

HopeAndStrength · 30/06/2023 19:38

Another vote for oranges, and strawberries, blueberries etc

orangeflags · 30/06/2023 19:39

Garlic croutons with my first. And m and s coronation chicken sandwiches with the second

ElmTree22 · 30/06/2023 19:43

I had hg. So couldn't stomach a single thing until after 20 weeks. My first craving when I was 21 weeks was full fat coke, biscoff milkshake and chip shop chips with curry sauce.

Weefreetiffany · 30/06/2023 20:20

No really cravings but I can’t stand onions, bring them up Immediately now when normally I can’t get enough of them. Also can’t stand the smell or taste of butter. Plain water makes me puke. I can only do simple foods and put ketchup with everything. So embarrassing as I love cooking and fine dining. But I just want fish finger/ chicken nugget sandwiches with white crap bread and ketchup. And sweet yoghurts, rice pudding and cornflakes 😂😭

StephanieSuperpowers · 30/06/2023 20:23

Cold, cold orange juice. Couldn't face an actual orange, for some reason.

reddingweddy · 30/06/2023 20:24

Tinned peaches

Throwaway246810 · 30/06/2023 20:24

I love this question!

For me, anything salty. Crusty bakery bread was a big one. Also hard boiled eggs (would have been sick eating these before getting pregnant)

Anything sweet made me ill. One of my colleagues brought me in a homemade cheesecake once and I ran to the toilet to puke! Felt awful...

I had a boy.

Good luck with your baby xx

IHeartGeneHunt · 30/06/2023 20:27

Apples, watermelon and egg mayo sandwiches. Later on it was peanut butter and banana sandwiches, I had always detested peanut butter. I still love it now.

bravotango · 30/06/2023 20:30

McDonald's strawberry milkshake!! Yum

JollyMollyPolly · 30/06/2023 20:30

With my twin boys it was cheap salt and vinegar crisps. With my singleton boy it was just ripe nectarines. It's funny how they were so different!

@17caterpillars1mouse

Haha yes me too!

ClarityClankrant · 30/06/2023 20:31

Nothing. I didn't have any in both my pregnancies. Was a bit miffed! 😂

tulipsunday · 30/06/2023 20:54

Sweets! Really want some right now and regret resisting buying them earlier 😂
