Soda, cake, milk, cereal, CARBS, peanut butter, tuna, bubble tea, ice cream, pizza, cheese burgers are amongst my list. Mind you I NEVER ate this stuff before. Can't wait for these freaking cravings to let up!!!
I had a weird craving for spaghettios in the late first/early second trimester. But that seems to have largely gone away. I haven't had any OMG NEED IT NOW cravings. My husband is thankful; he had visions of having to run from store to store in the middle of the night to feed cravings.

Me too!! I was eating a can a day!
I'll add cereal, strawberries and ice cream to this list!
Burgers. I eat so many burgers. I've been able to keep it manageable by cooking turkey burgers at home and keeping them in the fridge so I can throw a mostly healthy burger together as needed.
Cereal... Big time. Also, at the beginning of second trimester, I really wanted fried okra and mashed potatoes. I went to three places in one night because I wasn't sure of their menus.
Anything sweet, especially chocolate. Which is weird for me bc I didn't really like sweet stuff before I was pregnant... especially not chocolate. I've had this particular craving pretty much the entire time. Also, popsicles. It's starting to warm up here so it's partially that, but I'm pretty much obsessed.
I've been craving wine, beer and a good mixed drink! Especially now that it's getting warm... I find myself day dreaming about being on the beach with a drink in my hand. So pretty much anything I'm not allowed having right now... I want!

Yes! OMG, I want a beer so bad. I've had a few non-alcoholic ones, but they suck. It is fun to see people give me the side-eye at restaurants, though
Cereal and PB and honey sandwiches. I have never had one before in my life, but suddenly NEEDED one a few weeks back and now almost every day after work I have a PB and honey sandwich.

Lately I have been craving fruits but the first two trimester was all sweets. The only craving that has been consistent is wine. DH is getting really sick of hearing me say "I could REALLY go for a glass of cold white wine right now!"
Burgers. I eat so many burgers. I've been able to keep it manageable by cooking turkey burgers at home and keeping them in the fridge so I can throw a mostly healthy burger together as needed.
Cake. Definitely cake.
Raisin toast.
YES TO CAKE! I have DH make me one about every three days. It's nuts. My mom said with both my brothers she craved sugar constantly. I tried satiating the craving with fruit or a small amount of sugar, but it doesn't go away until I eat so much sugar I wanna puke.
Beginning of pregnancy was meat and cheese. Then cereal and milk (still my go to snack). Lately hot chocolate. Beer has also been a craving and I'm not a drinker at all.
Also, my burger craving is like specifically for leftover cold cheeseburgers that have been in the fridge for a few hours or overnight. I know. It's really weird.

I'm with you on burgers for sure! But raisins...I can't handle them in any form.
@TXmamatobeYou're a girl after my own heart. I miss champagne so much. My husband actually encouraged me to order a glass when we went to dinner on New Year's Eve, and I wasn't quite showing enough for other people to look at the pregnant lady drinking. The first few sips were magical, but then the bubbles and sugar made my stomach hate me. But post baby AND it being summer? Give me all the sparkling rose available. I used to work in a wine shop and am a bit of a snob, but I live in Utah now where there is no good wine. I don't know what I'm going to do.
Cereal, jalepenos on anything, spaghetti, CHAMPAGNE. I love champagne and can't wait to have some after we have the baby.
This. I loved spaghetti before but now I could probably eat it every day. I think I might convince DH to get some for dinner now. I wasn't really a fan of jalapenos before and now I get them ALL THE TIME. Give me all the spicy food. And yes to the champagne. We already have our after baby celebratory bottle picked out and I am WAY too excited about it.
baaahh I want so many things I really shouldn't be eating with GD... I love kraft macaroni shapes and was trying to cut down when I got pregnant, did decently alright not eating it all the time, and now I can only eat a tiny portion of it because of GD and my husband won't eat it and I hate leftovers, so I either wasted it and try to refrain from eating it all, don't eat it at all, or eat the whole box. I also really miss baked potatoes with all the fixings. I'm gonna go carb & sweets crazy when I hopefully test in the clear after being pregnant. I miss milk a lot too. Usually I go through a gallon on my own in a couple of weeks (before it expires), but the jug I have now is past expired and it's still half full! I was also drinking fake margaritas here & there, and now I can't do that either because of them being pure sugar. I'm actually losing weight now with this GD diet, I was at 12 lbs gained for my pregnancy and now I'm down to 10lbs gained overall. (Baby boy is measuring fine though, 73rd percentile). I just really wish I could indulge a bit more, some things I could probably have a little, but it would be hard to stop, lol

@txmamatobe Omg. Have you tried eating jalepenos with popcorn? My SO got me hooked on it and its the best thing ever. We even ask for them at the movie theater!
My craving is so weird. It's like the baby really wants celery. I don't want celery, but I keep finding myself buying it and eating it. So I guess the baby already has me wrapped around her finger! Lol
I am so impressionable. I saw a picture of a pizza on this forum and now all I want is pizza. I won't be reading the responses here because then I will want all of those things in addition to a whole pizza.
Popsicles! Everyone at work was teasing me a couple weeks ago because I was obsessing over grape popsicles and bomb pops! Like the ones you get from the ice cream man. Like I wasn't ever going to be satisfied until I got those and it was the greatest day ever when I finally ate one. Also hot chocolate and onion rings

I very simply just want everything, right up until the moment I get it and then I'm convinced I could have done better. Don't worry, I still eat all of it. Begrudgingly.
This was a new one: asparagus. I've never had strong feelings either way about it, but yesterday I couldn't stop filling my plate up with it! I ate a tiny piece of chicken, a small serving of kugel, a teeny bit of roasted potatoes and then 3 helpings of asparagus! It was so bizarre, but I just couldn't stop myself!
I was never a big candy person but now I want sugar! Purple/Blue bags of skittles have been my weakness lately. Lol not really a craving but I have been eating greenbeans every day. Its the only thing I have been able/wanted to eat the entire time even with the 1st tri nausea and now the extra worse heartburn.
I've been eating mashed potatoes mixed with baked beans and sauerkraut, but truthfully, I could just eat a whole can of baked beans right now. That'd haunt me, I'm sure.
