craving all things sour?

missy168

it seems like i have more food aversions these days than cravings but i'm just realizing that i'm wanting to eat all things sour!  seems so strange to me bc i'm normally a sweets person.  i made my husband buy me sour punch straws a few weeks ago, last week i had sour skittles out the vending machine at work and i keep eating kiwis.  i guess this is officially my first craving.  so random! 

do you believe that cravings mean your body needs certain nutrients?  what on earth could sour cravings mean?

My friend that is having her baby on the 4th craved sour stuff the whole pregnancy with her third and final boy.

I have a craving for pickles and sour patch watermelon candies. I actually ate a whole bag this weekend. I want some bad right now. 

I am craving more things sour than sweet or salty or any food.

Same here - I want sour/salty stuff.  I can't drink water lately without at least half a lemon in it and I'm drinking a new lemonade I found that makes H pucker but I LOVE it.  I was the same with my son - I knew to test b/c I actually thought drinking soy sauce sounded tasty!  I've been eating the sour straw things too and the Mexican Chillito stuff - the salty chili mix to add to fruit and things?  Yep it is HEAVENLY on watermelon and strawberries and I like to let it marinate a little to really get the flavors going - best when cold!

I was craving sour for a while and probably will again... I seem to cycle through my cravings repeatedly. My healthiest sour option so far? Granny smith apples. For a while I was eating one or two every day. They're not super sour, but they do the trick and I can feel good about eating them.

Love Sour Patch Kids lately. Some people say the sour helps nausea.....

With my DD I craved sweets - Reese's, brownies, etc. 

This time - sour and salty...and they guessed boy at my NT scan!

I think it's just that every pg is different but it's funny that they're different.  I guess we'll see at the 20 week u/s if this LO really is a boy!
