Eating hot things!

for some strange reason all I crave is hot things!!! Can anyone inform me on how hot things affect the baby and how to stop eating hot stuff :(

Re: Eating hot things!

  • I'm assuming you mean spicy hot? The heartburn is so bad for me that I just don't eat anything spicy. As far as stopping... Just do it? I would say all in moderation but if you're really concerned just call your doc

  • Meeee too!!! I'm only 5 weeks though no heartburn yet. I want food ridiculously spicey. Throwing sliced jalapeño in all my dinners lately! Lol :o3
  • As long as you feel okay I can't see how this would be bad for your baby- my husband and I eat atomically hot food and I'm glad heartburn has not been an issue thus far! Later in pregnancy the more favors you introduce- the more flavors a your baby is exposed to through the amniotic fluid (and then breastmilk if you go that route)- I'm hoping this leads to a "more adventurous eater" as my DH is a chef and we eat all sorts of Wild flavors :). Eat away if it doesn't give you heartburn (and later in pregnancy the dreaded hemmeroids (sorry for the spelling)
  • Your not alone. Spicy is the only thing that sounds good right now. I might need to make friends with the woman who owns the Subway down the street because I am constantly craving the Southwest Chipotle dressing. Right now it sounds good on toast with eggs...just saying.

    There is nothing that says spicy will hurt the baby. With DD I could only keep coke and sour gummy worms. Later on it was anything orange.

  • I'm also really into the spicy food this time. There's no harm to baby, it might just be uncomfortable for you if you have issues with heartburn.
  • Me too! Spicier the better, pregnant or not but now I'm craving it. However the heartburn is not fun.
  • Thank you ladies so much *daps some hot sauce on my dinner* lol I just love it!
  • Later on it was anything orange.

    Really?! That's wild! I'm kind of excited about the coming cravings- DH not so much (he's the cook) :)
  • mmmmmm hot wings :)

    Yeah it was crazy. DD still loves mandarin oranges. I can't explain it it was the only thing that sounded good.
