Pregnancy cravings for foods you usually dislike

[carrotsandstickz]

I'm 14 weeks and just started this week craving fish. I usually hate fish. What's that all about?! Have just eaten a big bowl of kedgeree...

In my third pregnancy I craved soap. It was ridiculous. I was worried I would crave meat or fish as I haven't eaten either since I was 10 but thankfully that didn't happen. Soap though, that really was weird.

I hate the taste and smell of fried eggs. When I was pregnant with ds26 I woke one night and had the biggest craving for a fried egg sandwich with tomato sauce. I could have killed for one! Also one night I segmented 6 Jaffa oranges into a large bowl and sat there eating them watching tv. Before I found out I was pregnant I had to have chocolate each day and pepper on ln all my food.

Never had anything on ds21

I'm also on my third but my first two were a long time ago. I never had cravings in those which is another reason I'm surprised.

Yep cream cakes. Dairy normally sets off my ibs but it disappeared in pregnancy so I overindulged a lot!

Peanut butter. Absolutely hated it all my life then got pregnant and had it with honey on toast every day. Still love it.

I craved fizzy water. A very specific size of bubble too! Hated it prior to pregnancy and don't care for it much now.
I also craved soap! But on a very hot flannel, over my face so I could breathe in the smell! Pregnancy is so very weird

I can't stand milk.

DC1 born in January and I craved porridge. DC2 born August and I craved Angel Delight. Both with full fat milk 🤢
