Do you think pregnant women do funny or strange things?

When I was pregnant I used to do funny things. My husband used to say I have changed a lot and that in certain things I have become even weird. I used to eat so many peas. My freezer was full of packets of peas just in case I wanted some! I used to run away from cats... which was even funnier. Sometimes I used to wake up at 5 in the morning and cook chicken and veg and usually I really love to sleep...
Do you work or live with pregnant women? Are you pregnant? What did you do when you were pregnant? Any strange or funny stories to tell?

i am not pregnant, not even married... but i have some pregnant friends and relatives before, and they use to crave for all kind of strange food, like sour mango, fruits not in season, other weird kinds....they would even let their husband find those food even if late at night.. and they often have a favorite picture or favorite person that they want to look at...and some of them also hate to eat their favorite food, hate some odor / smell, like the smell of her husband perfume, etc, and mood swings...

when my wife was pregnant she will wake me up and tell me she wants to eat peanuts har har har. i dont think its funny but i think it is strange. it was out of her natural and ordinary things. she does not wake me up when she likes something when she was not yet pregnant and mostly she will wait for me to wake up. but during pregnancy specially the early stage she eats and craves for a lot of hard to find foods.

I was really happy and excited for most of my pregnancy, so that was different for a start as I'm usually more reserved and laid back. And I couldn't get enough ice lollies - the frozen juice kind. We used to have to buy them in bulk, and make use of the "three boxes for the price of two offer", as I was getting through up to three lollies each day!
Later on in my pregnancy I also craved pickled onions, and had to keep a jar in the fridge at work as well as at home.
It's great that you had such a healthy craving. Peas are good for you! As are chicken and veg, but that would be a bit early for me, lol!
