I'm 25 weeks and as of yet have had absolutely no cravings

Am sad because I was looking forward to trying weird and wonderful combinations of food and getting away with it!

So... in the absence of any cravings of my own - what have you been craving?

The weirder, the better!

i had a lemon craving with dd (2) and cheesy doritos with ds (4). everyone thought i was crazy with the lemons i'm glad i wasn't alone. i'd have about 3 a day and peel them like oranges too. how strange

Oh, me too lemons -- uncontrollable. I'd run into Tescos and eat a raw lemon

I couldn't eat anything hot (I mean heated up, not spicy) at all and it was for months through winter .

I could only eat fox's glacier mints (a big bag a day), those mini bars of dairy milk (one a day), and salt and vinegar walkers crisps with added malt vinegar (2 bags a day).

I did not crave any of the above foods, they were just the only options, and I can't abide them now!

toilet paper, torn off into long strips. Yum yum.

I'm really craving my chewable vitamin C tablets (they taste of tangy oranges) but obviously can't just tuck in!

This is a little bit disgusting but..... whenever I go into a store like John lewis or indeed a homeware shop I am drawn like a magnet to the door mats. It think that it's the texture.....

I was very excited when we had cause to buy a new one. When we got it home I had a sneaky chew on the sisal-type upper and rubber bottom-it was bliss! Although I tried to be discrete DH discovered me having a chomp and was horrified. I dread to think of the germs- even though it was new!

Strawberry milk, those pink seafod crab sticks and strawberry poptarts . . though not all at the same time! Wonder if that means im having a girl since everything I craved was pink . . . . . .

For the first 3 or 4 months I loved eating raw limes.

Could do with one now.
