intense cravings!

This craving is going to be the death of me! All I want is sugar, sugar, and more sugar!

I have never really been a sweets person. Sure a candy bar during my period, or some ice cream here and there, but that was about it. Now I want pop-tarts, donuts, chocolate bars, ice cream, cookies... you name it, I want it. I even want sodas like crazy, and I was mainly a water and tea drinker pre-pregnancy. Root beer has been my weakness during pregnancy since it's caffeine free. I was watching Gabriel Iglesias stand up this weekend with my boyfriend and he does that joke about the donuts and being pulled over, and I was salivating at the thought of a box of donuts!! It's probably a good thing (although very very maddening right now) that we don't keep a lot of sweets in the house or I'd probably put on 10lbs and go into a sugar coma.

I'm gonna go rummage my pantry now.... :)

Anyone else having a craving that's driving them nuts?

Re: intense cravings!

  • I just woke up from a nap, rolled over to DH, and said, "I want a cookie."

     

    So I'm making chocolate chip cookies.  You all can come over and eat them with me.  The backyard is really sunny and lovely today.

OMG. and YES! it is definitely a good thing that i don't store sweets at home otherwise, LO and I would probably be gaining more than we should ((:

  • I've noticed it's been especially bad the past week or two and I'm almost to my 3rd trimester. I ate 3 bite size chocolates I found and a blow pop, that seemed to trick my taste buds for now. But chances are I'll be bribing the boyfriend to stop for a snickers on his way home from work!!

  • Yes Yes Yes...I saw a wedding cake made of donuts while searching for wedding ideas and its all I've been able to think about since!  I want sweets all the time, I normally craved salty snacks during my period.  Every day I promise myself NOT to eat anything bad but I always cave to temptation...will power?  Where did you go?

    All I want is a chocolate Entenmann's  donut. And I shall receive... because I was good at my glucose test today, so I deserve it... right?

  • Reading this post just made it worse!! I had only gained 7lbs at 27 weeks then sugar bug hit me and I wanted choc (which I couldn't stand in the first trimester) and cookies, rice Krispy treats etc... I didn't even notice what I was doing until my 29th week weigh in showed I'd gained FOUR pounds!! In two weeks!!! I did blame it on the mc Donald's breakfast and water weigh from a fall/ twisted ankle along with baby weight though. Hahah.. Helped in my mind anyway!

  • I would literally kill for an ice cream sandwich, but I get sick from too many artificial additives and the ones in the grocery store might not be worth the punishment. I now also want all of the things you all just said, particularly a donut. I like the ones with white cream in the middle and chocolate frosting...I can usually handle one if I was good all day, and I was really good today :)

    DH was making a cheesecake from scratch in an attempt to appease the Pregnant Couch Troll, but he just told me it won't be ready to eat til like 2am and we have to wait til tomorrow. I am the grumpiest couch troll ever. Guess who's getting sent to Whole Foods?
