I'm eating apple after apple.

Very partial to an egg and salad cream sandwich.

And strangely can't get enough of water left in a glass over night, so it's all warm and strong tasting.

Well done on apples! Nothing so healthy here, have just discovered Gu Naughties Millionaire's Flapjacks. Am telling myself it's ok after having gone off chocolate between 8 weeks and 30 weeks, but tbh I am now overcompensating. And Orangina. Nothing else is so thirst quenching.

mashed potato.....can't get enough of the stuff!!

I'm on pickled herring, plums (not purple one, but the greeny ones), marmalade and proper eggy creme caramel. Water has to be just above freezing point.

grapes, but thats only 'cos i've got a box of them next to me. I eat whatever is in easy reach . I've not got any proper cravings yet

ThePhantomPlopper · 28/09/2009 19:22

I've gone off chocolate too, glad to hear it wasn't a permanent thing, I enjoyed being able to devour a family size pack of malteasers last time without feeling guilty.

Oh yes ThePhantomPlopper; don't get me started on tomato sauce! Although, tbh, I've always had a fondness for it.

blondieminx · 29/09/2009 11:26

oooh yes, apples and plums here too! Also apricots and pears. And strawberry milk (but not together). Chinese food.

Roll on lunchtime

prawn mayo sandwiches. which is not great since we're meant to be careful about prawns - but i make them myself so i know the prawns aren' lying about getting poisoned!

when do cravings occur? i don't know if thisis a pregnancy craving or just normal!

BeckyBendyLegs · 29/09/2009 12:08

Fab ice lollies, cheese, more cheese, terry's chocolate orange and apples, more apples and more apples. Also love the left-overnight-water thing too!

southernbelle77 · 29/09/2009 13:13

Is anyone having cravings that aren't food related???

I can't get enough of Mr Sheen dust wipes (the original ones smell sooooooooooo good!) Shame you can't eat them, although my house is more dust free than it's been in a long time!

sheeplikessleep · 29/09/2009 13:33

Cheese, juice, eggs and pasta (not altogether!)

blossomx · 29/09/2009 19:11

ThePhantomPlopper · 29/09/2009 19:51

In my first pregnancy I craved CIF ocean floor cleaner. I used to sit on the kitchen floor inhaling it.
