Weird Cravings

kimberly_ann81 · August 2014

Didn't really get any weird cravings with the boys. Right now, onion rings and a turtle sundae sound really good.

What's your weird cravings?

moroccojade · August 2014

I had the onion ring thing a few months ago. I waited about 3 or 4 weeks then finally gave in. (They were disappointing - but at least I shook the craving.)

Now? Nothing out of the ordinary.

Nothing strange here.......just donuts. Powdered donuts....chocolate donuts....Boston cream donuts....glazed donuts.....Apple fritters....yeah. Just all the donuts.

Milk.. lol! I just want to drink the whole gallon. And I use to hate milk! Unless it was in cereal

It changes week by week with me. One week I craved and ate nothing but avocados. Another week I wanted nothing but peaches. This week we're on watermelon. I've eaten 2 monster ones since we went to the farmer's market Sunday. I do have to say that my weirdest, and most continuous cravings are garlic crabs and smelling the ocean. We live in North Jersey and are about an hour or so from the beach and have an unlimited supply to fresh seafood. Unfortunately, I'm not taking chances with the crabs. But at least once a week I beg my husband to take a drive down so I can get my ocean air "fix" and a few garlic shrimp instead, lol.

Nothing weird here right now, but my grandma told me that she craved the smell of new tires when she was pregnant with my aunt! My grandpa was a mechanic so he used to bring some home for her!

Had a bad experience with bad crabs last year and food poisoning ::shudder::

Mr. Clean makes Gain scented cleaners. I use them to clean my whole house. It now smells like a heavenly Laundromat!

Oh totally understand. I've had food poisoning from shrimp twice. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

kimberly_ann81 · August 2014

My husband brought home my onion rings and turtle sundae tonight. They were very good.

mamatohne · August 2014

Chocolate dipped Potatoe chips with a marshmallow in between like a s'more. I know right, wtf?

When I was pregnant with ds I had pica in my 3rd trimester, I could of (but didnt) drank bleach, or eaten a pumice stone.

*snort*

Selective reading.

AFM: I really haven't had any strong cravings (at least not any more than I had when I wasn't pregnant). The only strange thing was when I walked by an area where people smoke outside our office and thought the faint smell of cigarettes smelled good. I don't even smoke! I have no idea where that came from.

amberej · August 2014

I ate buckeye classic ice cream the other day with chilli cheese fritos!! Sounds gross but it was delicious at the time!

Alid86 · August 2014

Almond butter - mmmm I eat it pretty much every day for breakfast

Melissa2216 · August 2014

Bacon. My non-pregnant self doesn't eat bacon or any kind of red meat, but there is a turkey/bacon/avocado sandwich at Subway that I just love. I just polished off some bacon cheddar potato wedges from Jack in the Box while thinking "where have you been all my life?"

I also have been craving mint ice cream with oreos all week and today I got an amazing mint Haagen Daas sundae with fudge and oreos that was To. Die. For.

Yeah...today has been one big health fail. I told myself I was being healthy by drinking a protein powder drink with "superfoods" (kale, broccoli, etc.) in it. My lunch was that and some McDonald's french fries. Sorry, baby.

FishyMom · August 2014

Coconut snow cones... As large as they will make them! Yumm!

Watertreader · August 2014

Almonds. And ice cream.

megbanachek · August 2014

Cucumbers!

angelajo19 · August 2014

During my first pregnancy I craved the smell of dryer sheets. We had a horrible washer and dryer (we lived overseas) so the only way to smell clean laundry was to sniff the dryer sheets. This pregnancy I just started craving the smell of clean laundry. We have an amazing washer and dryer now so I just want to do laundry all day, everyday!!! I don't want to fold any of it, but I just want to bury my face in it.

highbornhunter · August 2014

I want a hamburger - cooked medium (gasp!) with lots of cheese and onions and ketchup on it.

I see McDonalds in my future, or maybe Wendys. Possibly Five Guys.

I was craving onion rings too really early on! Had them a few times before finally getting a blooming onion because that was really what I wanted. Since then though, no weird cravings. I keep waiting to want something strange like my friend and her pickle and cream cheese sandwiches!

kimberly_ann81 · August 2014

@Celticlass6

I love blooming onions. I'd eat the whole thing in one sitting right now. To bad the closest place to get one is an hour away.

Kristil2014 · August 2014

No wierd cravings yet. At the beginning all I wanted was cheese and milk. Which now both are giving huge digestion issues.

I have found that there are some foods that taste more amazing now that I am pregnant. I had a mango the other day that was so freaking delish that I could have eaten 10 more. (Mangos never taste that amazing here. It just takes to long to ship them to here where I am in Canada, that they lose all their sweetness.)

hellosweety18 · August 2014

Donuts donuts donuts =P~
That and walnuts...

brichar31 · August 2014

I have a jar of Peanut Butter on my desk that I eat by the spoonful! My boss asked me if I should be eating that...something about the baby may be allergic? I told him he was crazy.

I may have read it on here but I've been wanting a PB and Jam sandwich cooked like a grilled cheese in the worst way!

lovingaddi · August 2014

Bacon, mcdonalds fries, & milkshakes. Of course nothing that is actually decent for me!

kimberly_ann81 · August 2014

@tarynleann What do you think? Saw this on FB just now.

hjenni · August 2014

Gimme all the string cheese! And I wonder why I'm so constipated :-/

MuchlyGen · August 2014

THAI FOOD.

All the Thai food.

With my first son it was all about peaches and nectarines... and pizza.

With my second it was all about oranges and salad, of all things. So healthy. I would go to Olive Garden and eat the entire salad bowl myself then ask for a refill. And meat! He broke my fifteen year vegetarian streak when I got down to the last few months, was anemic, and craved red meat hard core.

Now? Thai food. All the Thai food. And I totally have a nauseating aversion to pork. Baby girl likes spicy, does not love meat.

Are these real? I'm shopping in the states next week; screw baby supplies, I'm buying chocolate covered chips!

reneegrulkowski · August 2014

I wanted hot Cheetos and I've never had a craving for them before, they were gross to say the least but glad the craving is over with.

Sorry, not real. Use to be part of a "Pick the Newest Flavor" contest a while ago. They didn't win.
