It's been a long time since the craving days. I can easily remember because it was the same one thing with every one..Orange soda..and it truly had to be a craving because I don't like soda.

Hi, x. I craved tomatoes and cucumbers sliced up in a bowl with salt and pepper. I loved pickles, salads and spicy chicken wings.. I loved anything that is delicious.. I was never a sweet eater as some women were. And I could not mix any of my foods together either.. I might would have puked!

Most pregnant women i know crave for unripe mango during their first trimester.But i never crave for that kind of fruit.But instead i loved to eat guava and vegetables.I always went to my mother,s house and let her cook vegetables for me.She really cooked good and i love it.She also had guava tree so i kept picking all the fruit every morning,lol!

When I was pregnant with my first daughter I craved Mr. goodbars all the time. I had to limit myself to how many I kept around or I would have eaten everyone in site some days. With my second daughter it was tator tots!! I would fry some up at all times of the night to eat them and get people to go to fast food places and get them for me all the time.

Well during my pregnancy I really didn't have a craving my boyfriend had the carving. He carved for pepsi and taco bell. We didn't even know I was pergnant until I went to the hospital cause of a seziure and found out I was 6months pergnant. With my pregnancy there was no carvings or anything so I feel as if I missed out on the whole point of being pergnant.

It's been quite a long time since I was last pregnant, but I can remember the cravings that I had. I had a HUGE craving for Greek salads and Chik-fil-a chicken sandwiches with waffle fries. I also absolutely HAD TO mix ketchup and mayonnaise together to dip my french fries in, no matter where the fries were from. I never had any extremely odd cravings like I've heard of others having, such as pickles with ice cream or soda with milk. I just had very strong cravings for particular fast food items. I would actually eat Greek salads for a week straight.

When i was pregnant,luckily i did not have cravings for any particular food or dishes.But i started disliking dishes made up of peas and cauliflower.The reason being that i was fully at bed rest and my MIL had to cook food and she is so lazy that she used to make peas and cauliflower and used to serve me during my pregnancy for three or more times in a day.I was fed up eating peas and cauliflower all the time.Now i do not eat them at all.

this is normal for women in pregnancy and i used to watch my cousin who used to have, infact i can call it the highest craving for meat and eggs. in normal situations we used ot eat these foods in a logical manner but in her pregnancy they formed part of every day meal.

i had strong cravings for fresh fruit, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, cheese of any kind, cheap freezy pops of the sort that come in little plastic tubes, and slurpees. i had cravings for all those things throughout my entire pregnancy they got stronger the whole time and the slurpees i could drink the largest size one in about 20 min on my own but i made sure not to get the caffeinated sort or the ones with artificial sugar because the first is just bad an the second is possibly bad for fetuses but the father is allergic so it was just a safer bet to not risk it and i don't like the funny aftertaste anyway its so icky. i have only had one so i couldn't say what number two will bring :)

During my first trimester of pregnancy, I craved for siopao and I ate it during breakfast, lunch and dinner. After that I didn't crave for any food so I was thinking what would be my child look like.

When I was pregnant I craved for chicken and chocolates. Unfortunately too much sweets is not good when your pregnant and so my husband would usually monitor the stuff that I eat. I would crave for Friday's Mushroom Chicken n' Mushroom most of the time. Tuna made my stomach churn when I was pregnant which was really weird since tuna used to be my favorite.
