Favorite Pregnant Food

Shortstack06

So my husband sent me a link to the 20 most craved foods by pregnant women. So I included a few to see what the consensus is across the board (and we all love clicky polls).

Serunatu

SS: Fresh fruit! 

mlee116

SS: ALL the food.

ssm1218

All of the above all the time.

I said chocolate. But chocolate is always my favorite, pregnant or not.

BayCamp

Carbs. All the pasta, potatoes, and rice.

abcmom12

SS: sorbet has been the constant this whole time

How is pizza not an option?  I picked spicy food, but that would be my second choice after pizza. I was also obsessed with popsicles, but that seems to have gone away now that the weather has cooled off.

Salty foods, spicy foods, chocolate... all the carbs. I'd say sushi, Mexican (yes to the guac), chicken wings, cheeseburgers, and fresh fruit (especially raspberries).

Lemon everything. I made like a million pans of lemon bars this pregnancy and every chance I get I order a lemony dessert. I've never liked lemon this much before lol

I went through a fresh lemonade phase in first tri. It was ridiculous, I would go through Wendy's just for a large one.

agsgrrl

Yup.

I could live on spaghetti, potatoes and chocolate. I would be a freaking house, but a happy house.

Where the fuck is my salami!? 

As soon as I saw you posted, I was like shit fuck I forgot salami.

Mashed potatoes. Who would have thought someone could be so enthusiastic about mashed potatoes?

kimba1976

All the grapefruit juice. All of it. And pretty much anything else citrusy

First trimester was fruit, second trimester was donuts, and third so far is carrots (WTF?)

designchica

First tri= spicy food and meat. Lots of hot sauce on breakfast burritos. Second tri= lemonade and cheeseburgers. Third tri= cranberry juice

This whole pregnancy for me has been all about eggs. I can't get enough eggs. Doesn't matter how they're made. I had the same craving with DD but only during the first tri. This time it's the whole pregnancy.

Exact opposite here, I can't even look at them

Ihope

SS salad

1st tri: carbs and cheese, 2nd tri: fresh fruit, 3rd tri: pastries!

@stormygrace‌ , me too with the Chinese food. I think I overdid it in the first tri since I was so wiped out and it was convenient. Now it just grosses me out.

Takeabreath

SS nachos and froot loops.

LeviJeans

SS: Carbonation. Alllll the drinks with carbonation

brookey79

Hard to pick between chocolate and ice cream...maybe chocolate ice cream would have been my choice!

MrsFaulkner2012

I couldn't get enough steak and baked potatoes! In fact, I could eat it right now, lol

gmeyer1019

SS I don't think I can truly say I craved anything. In fact it takes me forever to figure out what I want for lunch every day, cause I just don't know. It's been weird lol

feeshah

APPLES DAMN IT!!!

I also love ice, spicy food, ice cream, cake, and I'm diggin steak fajitas too with sour cream.

LizaMcCracking

Carbs are mah lifeeee!
Mashed potatoes with lots of gravy!
And then mixing corn in with it with some Cajun seasoning sprinkled on! And some red beans and rice extra spicy and maybe a drum stick or two. Also extra spicy. And a bisquit.......
Damn now I gotta drive to Popeyes.

hollieandaaron2012

My cravings have changed a lot. The first part of the pregnancy I was all about juice, then it was chocolate milk, and now salty.

jjgypsy

Fresh fruit & cereal.  I think I like the cereal so much because it's something I don't have to cook.

BabyByTim

First tri: I didn't have cravings because the thought of food made me nauseous.

Second tri: carbonated drinks (love my soda stream), spicy foods, sushi, cereal (cocoa crispies) and milk

Third tri: all about the ice and this week fresh lemons, either just the lemon or squeezed over veggies and salad

diz1313

Ice cream, cookies, donuts, cake, pie.... all of the sweets!! And milk I so want milk ALL THE TIME!

Nothing like the lactose intolerant mothership chugging down gallons of milk and generally I am a salty/spicy lover instead of sweets. I have totally been hijacked!

mrsshawnavanb

I picked SS because for me it changes daily or weekly. For a few weeks I craved mozzarella sticks, then for awhile I could've eaten pizza daily, I've been on a raspberry lemonade kick for months too.

Kmm1023

All food all the time

rozANDbenSINCE2001

What I *want* to eat is unfortunately not the same as what I have been able to eat. I want to eat super spicy, old school, homemade Thai food that my mom made for me growing up. Instead? I have been eating mashed potatoes, baked squash, and other super simple meals. All the acid and nausea keeps me from straying too far away from stuff on the bland side. I do indulge in chips and donuts, though.

BrainCellSup

My cravings went from strongly salty to now also wanting all of the baked goods. Pasta with marinara sauce, mozzarella, and red pepper flakes has been a constant 'yes' food. I honestly think I could have it every night.

pinklepop

SS: GUMMY BEARS. I don't get it. So random.

sarahlynne30

Bagels with loads of cream cheese, and also pizza! I'm like a ninja turtle with pizza lol

Glamourtech90

BURGERS. GIMME ALL THE BURGERS. I wasn't a big beef fan before pregnancy.

I've been really particular with my cravings --- I've dreamt about a goat cheese scramble (scrambled eggs with goat cheese, chicken sausage, tomatoes, and chives) with a side of french toast from an awesome little breakfast place nearby. I've been eating there at least twice a week the entire pregnancy. It's SO good. mmmmmm
