Anyone else craving fruit?!

in September 2015 Moms
I've never been one to go to the kitchen with the intention of reaching for the nearest bit of fruit, but now... It's all I think about, sour fruit in particular! Just curious as to whether any of you mommas are craving healthy stuff, I'm usually a cheese burger / brown sauce or anything really fatty kinda girl when I'm pregnant lol

    Yes, craving fruit all the time! I can down a bag of clementines in a couple days. My mom was curious about whether I was craving meats or fruit, she thinks if you crave fruit, you're having a girl. It's some sort of old wives tail, of course, but at our 12 week NT scan, they said they thought we were having a girl.

    yes, I want fruit and can't stand meat, except hot dogs which I normally dislike. lol. and I crave grapes, which I don't normally like! strawberries and oranges are something I always love, so that's not new; but I can't seem to eat bananas right now and that makes me sad.

    YES!!! Guess we are pregnant at the right time if this craving stays with spring/summer time (in my area of the country anyway!)

    Most definitely! Throughout this first trimester it has been fruit, veggies, and falafel. Fruit is in the lead. Ha

    Aww that's interesting! I think that could be very true as I was all over meat with my boys, I have a feeling this one could be a little girl, only time will tell we'll be happy either way but with 2 boys and one girl it would certainly even out things in out house hold :)

    Clementines! Bags and bags full, love them! I hope this old wives tale of craving fruit means a girl! I'm seriously out numbered here my son is 10, then we have my boyfriend and our 2 male kitties! But on a serious note just praying for a happy healthy baby :)

    Apples, lots of apples, & cantaloupe! I'm sure watermelon will be big once it's a little more in season .

    Granny Smith apples and peanut butter. And sour grapes that's it for me. It's the sour stuff I'm loving.

    I wish! I can only do the apples + PB like everyone else is digging. I can knock back like a 1/2 cup of PB at those times! I'm in Bradley class and they want us to eat 80-100 g of protein a day so it's my only hope since my only appetite seems to be for um.... yeast rolls and honeybuns and baguette!

    OH! But I am nuts for watermelon. We usually try to eat very seasonally but we have been going through watermelon like crazy! Berries too - I can't stand winter fruits it seems, other than those apples!

    so... funny story.... when this board first started, there was a post called 'Oranges' and I remember being like 'jesus WTF, you don't need to post everything that comes to your damn little mind... great, you like f'ing fruit, congrats' 

    but now i am totally eating my words because seriously I can't stop.  I eat at least 2 cuties every day, I drink glasses of juice (I NEVER drink juice unless it's hangover breakfast), i bought mangoes twice in the last month.  I can't get enough fruit. 

    So moral of the story is, orange cravings are obviously a thing for some reason!!  Of course my other craving is bread and McDonalds, so.... maybe it's balancing out my lack of nutrients!

    Crazy! I love fruit in the summer time. But I only craved strawberries up until my 9th week. Then it was strawberry yogurt with strawberry granola and simply orange banana juice. My family and dear friends that know I'm prego (11 wks) all think I'm having a girl because of my cravings. (this is my first so I have no idea)

    Yep. I make myself a bowl of fresh strawberries and banana every morning. With my son I craved any type of fruit practically the whole pregnancy.

    I have been resting soooo much fruit! I mostly crave really juicy fruits. I ate a whole bag of Clementines last week, it was honey dew melon the week before, and this week it's been red seedless grapes. I also easy a banana and apple every day, but that's just habit.

    Watermelon for me.  Same as the last two pregnancies. It's my only real pregnancy craving, but I NEED it!!

    For almost the past 4 weeks fruits and veggies were about all I could consistently keep down. Every week I scour through the grocery store to find fruit that's on sale - pineapple (so good!), cantaloupe, berries and apples.

    I want any kind of fruit any time of day! In the first trimester that's pretty much the only thing I wanted to eat, nothing else sounded good at all. Now that I'm in the second trimester I can finally eat other food but still have mad cravings for anything with fruit!

    Love fruit!! I just bit into a "peach" only to find out I had bought a white nectarine. I mean, I'm not complaining, just not what I was expecting! Lol
