What were your pregnancy cravings

[loveismum]

What were your pregnancy cravings? What week did they start? And what was the gender of your baby?

With my baby boy it was chicken super noodles and salt and vinegar crisps! I was obsessed. My cravings didn't really start until the second trimester.

This just popped into my head because weirdly today I've had 3 cans of Fanta and I absolutely hate it! But I just wanted it lots today, so strange. My period isn't due for a week....

I was looking forward to bonkers cravings like eating ice cream using a pickled gherkin but I had the opposite effect.

Huge list of food aversions, couldn't even step in the supermarket without feeling sick. Felt that way practically straight after getting pregnant!

Cheese and bread!

First time I was pregnant I craved Indian food. Years later when I had already been taking fertility/pregnancy vitamins for ages I didn't crave anything.

DD - Babybel cheese. I would eat three a day. I can't even look at them now.

Sand unfortunately

2 Girls: Extra strong cheddar, raw rhubarb, granny Smith's but only the very green sharp, crisp ones. Pickled onions, grapefruits galore, cans of tuna and Guinness at the very end but I resisted that one and only had the odd glass. Had dreadful morning sickness with dd2 & for 3 months subsisted on tomato soup & Smash with the odd cracker here and there.

Meat.
Kebabs,burgers,hotdogs,steak pie.

Boy

Clay, like the kind you make wonky sculptures with in primary school.
To my knowledge I have never eaten any but I could imagine so strongly what it would taste like and I thought about it multiple times a day.
I didn't eat any but I really wanted to. Halfway through the third trimester it went away and I have never wanted to eat clay again.

Garners pickled onions
Strawberries

No cravings whatsoever, infact the only thing I could stomach for 2 months was cheese and salad wraps, everything else made me vomit. I was so bored of eating them.
I had a boy.

Chocolate for both, and they are different sexes

For my daughter it was olives and gherkins. For my son it was Victoria sponge cakes with proper cream.
