cravings

has anyone ever craved something they couldn't have while pregnant?

when i was pg with mady my biggest craving was big macs, milk, and i had a spree of guava pastelitos also.

with this pg i usually crave food and when i eat it, it's not really what i wanted to eat. however....i crave beer sometimes. for the record, i'm not a drinker at all, a glass of wine usually was more than enough for me pre-pregnancy. i have never really sat back and had a beer just because either before. i guess sometimes i see dh having a cold one and it just seems so good. another thing....has anyone ever craved sex during pg? for some reason i can't get enough of it. when i was pg with mady i wanted nothing to do with playing tennis and now i can go for a tournament.

seriously, am i the only one?

Re: cravings

  • Yes! I craved sushi/sashimi my whole pregnancy!  In fact, Hunter was born at 12:39am and that night, I had DH bring sushi to the hospital for dinner :-)

    Sex??? Maybe at the beginning, but my last trimester all I wanted to do was sleep, LOL

  • You can have tuna though, just not more than I think 6oz a week or so.  And I think the kind you really need to stay away from is albacore tuna.  I used to have tuna sandwiches once a week or once every 2 weeks from the cafe downstairs...yum.

    my ob said the same thing to me...but knowing me i'll probably eat it and feel so guilty afterwards lol

  • I wanted sushi and wine all throughout my pregnancy.  The day we got home from the hospital with alexis, we had both sushi and wine (I didn't BF).

    I ate tuna also, but not more than once a week :) 

    As for tennis, it was the last thing I wanted to do!

  • I never had much drinking cravings during both my pregnancies. With Gaby, though I always wanted MD fries, gummy bears and bbq sauce (all 3 together at the same time). With Alex I didn't crave food, but tennis!!!! I wanted it 24-7 and still do! But that's just how I am naturally! buahahaha :)
  • LOL...I'm a really picky eater so don't eat sushi or anything of the sort...but I did want to eat raw cookie dough!!!! And as for playing tennis...I had complete placenta previa since 13 weeks and could no "play" until Mikey was 2 months old :(

  • I've heard a lot of women that crave tennis during pg!  Perfectly normal.  I sometimes dream of it!  LOL  Now is when my drive is coming back... but before I wanted nothing to do w/ Dh. 

    Actually, this wkend, my "What to Exepect" app spoke about sex during pg, and they said whatever you are "craving" is normal, and nothing to be alarmed about.  Some want it more than others... enjoy it while it lasts.  : )

    Funny thing, my BFF says she's had a lot of dreams (and even woken up by the BIG O) and she's pg w/ twin boys.  I have had a dream or two, but nothing as bad (or not bad but dramatic) as her!  LOL

  • I had so many cravings. Tuna sandwiches twice a day, PB&J and 2 hot dogs and a Pepsi, that was my lunch for my first 2 trimesters not all of that, I would alternate. As for Sushi I had it only on certain days Tuesdays and Fridays why those exact days? Who knows but I could only eat it on those days. I never worried about that since there were many pregnant Japanese ladies there all the time. As for the sex, I wanted nothing to do with that, plus he was never home during my pregnancy.

  • For me it was Pb & jelly sandwiches & a tall glass of milk for breakfast- lunch & dinner. I also wanted tennis all the time after my first tri. We played frequently up until the day I gave birth. At that point dh found it creepy but I wouldn't give him a break! Lol! Enjoy!!!!
  • This pregnancy I am ALL about the hot foods, spicy foods. This little girl is going to come out breathing fire, I tell you!

    I am dying for everything I cannot have but that is usual. I could not wait for salmon sashimi or a nice cold margarita when I was pregnant with Sophie.

    Have you tried Odouls? They hit the beer fix for me. Sam Adams also makes a non-alcholic but its grody.

    Lastly, sex this time around has been awesome. Dude. Awesome. With Sophie my drive was down the tubes and I had to drum up the enthusiasm. This time I am a lot...hornier. ;)

    This is what I thought! Because I have been dreaming about and wanting a lot of "the sex" this time around I was sure there was a penis growing inside me. LOL.

  • Congrats on your pragnancy!  Boy, I've missed a lot over the last few weeks!!

    I didn't really have any major cravings with Adrianna, but I did miss sushi with both pregnancies. With Nicky, the thought of alcohol was such a turnoff, but I did miss it with Adrianna.

  • Yes - I craved beer with my last pregnancy and would steal sips from MH once in a while.  Something about it being ice cold and just the taste of it made me crave.  I really don't like the taste of beer either.  I'm more of a mixed drink type of girl.  And Yes to the sex as well.  It was Cahrazeeee...enjoy it!
