Cravings just get into your head and you cant stop thinking about it until you have it. Its not always something 'naughty' just usually something random that you think/obsess about. Weird how everyone and every pregnancy is so different. I was sick the day of my bfp up until 20 weeks with DD, with this one I havent felt nauseated once!
Mmmmm.....my cravings last time were for hot wings! This time nothing yet, but I still have a while to go!

I think my "cravings" are only part cravings, part me just letting myself have what I want. We got pregnant right after getting married. Leading up to the wedding, I was very strict with diet and exercise, because like any girl, I wanted to look fabulous on my wedding day. After that, I promised myself I would let up a bit, and I have. So I think sometimes for me they are REAL cravings, but sometimes its the fact that I would NEVER have let myself indulge in McD's cheeseburgers, but now..... well the baby wants what he/she wants! haha.
Re: Will it ever happen to me?
Same reason some people never have morning sickness (I never did).
Just the way your body reacts, and every body is different.
That said, I am craving fruit rollups and fruity drinks big time.
we are all just different...
my craving is Dove ice cream bars and reeses peanutbutter cups with the dark chocolate....
Very true. I started having morning sickness with this baby and none with Alex.
Silly question.. But what is it like? You just want to have it or you actually taste the food you want?
The thought gets in my head and I just NEED it.
For the last week whenever I would think of fruit rollups I was like Pavlov's dog. I wanted them SO BAD. I craved them badly in my last pregnancy.
I started out craving carbs. It was the only thing that made my stomach feel better.
Then I started having constipation and I started craving salad and fruit. I guess your body knows what it needs!
To me, it just feels like that is the only food that will taste good. Everything else sounds gross.
