what did you crave for when your were pregnant?

I craved the same things both times which was weird. I had to have Kentucky Fried Chicken- could not live without it. It's a wonder that my kids didn't come out clucking. In the morning I had to have fruit- a melon of some kind. I would eat the whole thing of whatever it was- cantaloupe, watermelon, honeydew. It had to be melon. Milk duds were another thing. Smells didn't really bother me too much unless it was eggs. They would make me barf every time when I was prego.

The first pregnancy i had a craving for KFC gravy constantly, and i gained about 60 lbs. And i also couldnt smell peanut butter or i would throw up the first few months while i had morning sickness. Too bad for me that hubby eats a LOT of peanut butter, too bad for him he'd try to kiss me after he'd eaten it! This pregnancy, i havent had any real cravings, i just always WANT junk food, but i try to refrain cause i didn't want to gain all that weight like i did last time. i've only gotten half of it off in the year and a half!

Nothing made me really sick when I thought about it or smelled it. The first time round I didn't really cook anything (because I didn't know how to) and survived on rice and yogurt. I craved for something at my grannie's place. At our place, we pour a little water on left over rice and have it the next day (it's a little sour then). Well, I craved that and especially the one at my grandmother's! They always had it and I flew all the way from the next state for it and guess what? They didn't have it that day!!!! and I wasn't there long enough to have it the next day! With the second one, all I wanted to do was eat and eat and eat. and fortunately I went to my mother's for my delivery and had all the spicy food that I wanted.

I have not been pregnant so what i am sharing is from my friends' experiences. one friend craved fruit tarts. and even had a nightmare about it. another friend craved mars bars and so she had a ready stock of that. and another friend craved certain local food, but it was harder to get it in the middle of the night.

With my first pregnancy I couldn't eat meat all all. I couldn't stand the smell of food period. All I ate the entire time i was pregnant was Cheese and pickles and fruit. My son loves all fruits and can't enough pickles and cheese. This pregnancy (I'm 32 weeks pregnant) I can eat just about everything but red meat and eggs. I haven't had many cravings other then Wink soda and licorice :)

When I was pregnant with my son I craved chinesse food constantly, also ice cream, which i am not a big fan of normally and the smell of cat food made me sick to my stomach and also the site or smell of ground beef was also very sickning to me. With my daughter I craved the broccoli cheese soup from Quiznos and also chocolate dipped in onion dip. And the smell of any kind of fish made me sick. We had to stop eatinng in our favorite chinesse resturant because of it.

When I was pregnant with my son I craved strawberry soda and a whole box of powdered donuts. I couldn't have the small 6 pack I had to have the whole box. With my daughter, I just ate everything and alot of it...LOL. Nothing repulsed me with either one of them.

ok, i will think now..hhhmmm...when i was pregnant i crave for banana que..you know that? its been cook in a pan with oil and brown sugar..yah, i love that so much..the smell, the taste..so yummy, don't know why but i really crave that kind of food..but i hate kinds of smell, like perfumes, colognes, lotions, dont know why hate that..lol and on my early months, i really wanted to put on my make up, then i feel so very ugly, that i noticed that my face look so tired, so pale..but after 3 months i really feel so glowing and i love to put on my make-up, and i feel so fresh..

This is one of the best discussions. I know for me personally, each pregnancy has been different. My first, I was not able to be near coffee. The smell alone ruined my day and made me ill. I loved french fries and cheez-its. With my second.... I also loved french fries... Ketchup made me ill which is something I normally love. Oh and my car. for some reason the looks of it made me cringe... weird, I know. Now this time around.... There are few foods I can eat and nearly everything makes me ill. Smells, just the sight of foods. My comfort foods right now are green beans with nothing on them just straight from a can or oatmeal.

When I was pregnant with my kids I craved peanut butter marshmallow sandwhiches. When I was pregnant with my daugter diet coke disgusted me even though that is what I had always drank I was about 4 months along before I could stomache a diet coke.

nothing made really me sick except of the smell of kitchen.when i was pregnant,i crave for fruits,whatever fruits,strawberry and cherry are my favourite.

With my 9 year old I craved Fruits and ICE water, with my 7 year old I craved Chili Cheese Fritos and Pepsi oh and Slim Jims, with my 2 year old I craved Whoppers, from Burger King

With my first I wanted apple juice, milk, and steak! with my second I wanted carbs & lots of them, and cranberry juice with my third I wanted fresh fruit and milk with my fourth I wanted candy & junk food (which is unusual for me) with my fifth I wanted fresh veggies & water I'm done having kids... lol.. but I'd be afraid of what #6 would crave... I'm out of food groups... lmao... hopefully it wouldn't be paint chips =P

I could not get enough pickles. I would eat them by the jar. lol My mom used to make fun of me because I would eat green olives and drink slushes. They tasted so good together I don't know why. If I smelled eggs cooking I would get soo sick, even if I thought about eggs. It was horrible.

With my first and second I craved alot of fruits and mexican. With my third I also craved mexican and jalepenos which was weird cause I hated them. I ate them with him and now I love them. Nothing really made me to sick. I never got morning sickness with either of them. Didn't know I was pregnant with either of them till I missed my period. I guess I got lucky on that part.

One pregnancy I craved coco-cola with raspberry cordial..yum. Canned peaches for another, don't think i had any more. oh yes when I was in labour with my last child i wanted fish and chips, this is at the pushing stage!!!!! after the baby was born my husband asked me if I still wanted the fish and chips...couldn't think of any thing worse!!!!!! Meat cooking made me ill, i could eat it if someone else cooked it and i didn't have to smell it cooking.
