edited August 2014 in Pregnant after a Loss
Of course, this poll can't possibly include every food craving imaginable. But, if you had to pick one...

  • T1 was all about spicy food and fruit.

    T2 so far is all about sweet things.  Must say, I was really really hoping that the sweet tooth would go away for the entirety of pregnancy.  No such luck. :(

  • Spicy food and also cold fruit. I can't stomach tomato sauce or virtually anything Italian, (DH and I are Italian with a very Italian last name) but the baby loves it some Mexican cuisine! Haha

  • I chose cheese/mac and cheese, but really I'm just craving all the carbs - mac and cheese, spaghetti, fettucini alfredo, new potatoes, mashed potatoes, etc.

  • I chose no cravings but it's not really that accurate.  I haven't had any major new cravings that I wouldn't have while not pregnant but the difference is that now my desire for them is multiplied.  For example, the other day my friend had some home made nachos for lunch and I told her I might eat my way through the table to get to them before she could (joking, of course ;) ) and went home that night to make nachos because I couldn't get them out of my head.  But honestly, that is a likely scenario for me while not pregnant just without all the "THAT LOOKS SO GOOD I'M GONNA EAT THAT LATER TONIGHT" drama haha.

  • I said ice cream, but it's really just a general craving for sweets. My sweet tooth is out of control right now.

  • With DS, I loved me some ice cream. We lived in hot FL at the time, and he was due in July so yeah. Alas, every time I ate ice cream I was guaranteed to put on 2 lbs :((.

    So far, all I crave right now is chocolate and potato chips.

  • I picked 'Everything' because I just want to eat all the time. I'm not sure if I've even had any true cavings yet but I've definitely found myself eating things I normally wouldn't eat over the past few weeks. For instance I was grocery shopping the other day and I just had to pick up pikelets and banana yoghurt. I haven't eaten pikelets since I was a kid and I rarely if ever eat yoghurt and normally don't like banana flavoured anything. Apart from that I've kind of just felt like eating something after I've seen it. Fast food commercials have never been so influential!

  • I've gone through a couple phases including 1) lemon anything 2) ice cream 3) yogurt 4) peanut butter. Oh, and there was a water phase. For weeks 6 and 7, I was constantly thirsty, and drinking at least ten 8oz glasses of water per day. So odd!
