I have had some cravings, but mostly I just crave things that I know I can stomach. For instance all I have been wanting lately is mashed potatoes and gravy from Bojangles, because when I think about it I don't gag -- literally nothing else sounds good.
Baby wants carbs and chocolate milk... but like others said, it's because they are the few things I can stomach. I tried to power through a hamburger at lunch, only got halfway through and felt totally ill!
I've had cravings for pickles like crazy. Even while I was eating eggs and bacon from breakfast..I had to have a pickle. Or when I was eating left over homemade chocolate frosting....I really needed that pickle.
I think I'll be stocking up on several pickles in my kitchen.
OH my GOODNESS!!! mee too!!! MY hubby thinks I'm crazy because NOTHING is salty enough! Even my vinegar and salt chips tasted SWEET to me...I have been really sick... just being able to stomach food other than saltines.... still shaky.... But yes PICKLES = AMAZING! I read that craving these things is your baby needing sodium.
thus far my primary one(at least twice this week) has been ketchup. Specifically, an otherwise-plain small cheeseburger(or hamburger), with LOTS of ketchup. The first time, I effed it up and got a much bigger burger and fries, and deeply regretted the fries...today, I just got two junior cheeseburgers, no fries, and ketchupped 'em myself. Much better.
The only other real craving I've had was last night, thanks to the ladies on this board and their talk of Arbys sandwiches
My cravings started at 5wks and havent stopped! And its for everything I never ate before, and things I loved before I feel sick even thinking about eating them!
Re: Too early for food cravings?
Why is it too early? That baby already knows what it wants!
