Re: Baby cravings

  • The only craving I've had is french fried onions. I want to put them on hot dogs, burgers, salads, etc.

  • Every day is a new craving. My most common ones are sushi, potatoes and tomatoes. Not together. Today I have been craving a cheeseburger something fierce. 
  • In the beginning I craved jalapeños. I don't even really like them all that much normally. Lately it's been fruit or sour candy. Mostly sour candy.

    Just keep swimming.
  • Other than wanting juice and milk (usually have maybe 3 glasses a year) during first trimester, I haven't craved anything I don't normally crave.

  • @midwestbaby  I also thought this thread was going to be about craving babies, which I have been since seeing the videos they showed during our childbirth class this weekend lol.

  • This happened with DD too but I crave water constantly. We went to Walmart earlier to get a few things and I didn't take a bottle with me so when we got home I acted like I haven't had water in days, even DH looked at me like I was crazy. 

    Other than that I wish I had cravings, I love the satisfaction that comes when you finally eat something you've been craving so bad. That makes me sound like an uber fatty but I don't even care. 
  • @Lynnlove28 I love that satisfaction you get too when you finally eat something you've been craving. It's an amazing feeling. But I also LOVE food.

    I've had pretty normal cravings with this one. It normally changes from week to week. It's ranged from things such as macaroni and cheese, snickers, Reece's, doughnuts, chocolate chip cookies, cake, Zaxby's house zalad with honey mustard dressing, burgers, etc. The weirdest thing I've ever craved though was with my first pregnancy (a loss). It's what prompted me to take a test with that pregnancy. I got this sudden intense craving (to the point where my mouth was watering) for peanut butter and raspberry jam sandwich with bread and butter pickles on it. And if that we're enough, I dipped the sandwich in the pickle juice. Sounds absolutely disgusting, but it tasted amazing. After that pregnancy ended and the symptoms went away, I tried that sandwich again and almost puked...
  • I have been buying jars of pickles and just drinking the juice straight up.  Also, cut a cantelope in half, scoop out the seeds and put vanilla ice cream in the bowl part, then devour - soooo amazing, I'm looking for investors to open up a cantelope and ice cream stand at the beach this summer.

  • STRAWBERRIES! And Taco Bell, I never ate Taco Bell before I got pregnant because I didn't like it and now I want it everyday 
  • This week:
    Soft batch chocolate chip cookies. 
  • Sour patch kids. It's disgusting how much I'm loving them..

  • Watermelon! Everyday I want watermelon. And fried chicken. I never liked fried chicken, I would always remove the skin/breading before I ate it. Now I want it all.
  • I feel like mine is weird because I've never wanted this. But ANYTHING that is Tomato/Basil. I had my husband make me bruschetta 3 nights in a row. I made Caprese grilled cheese sandwiches 2 nights in a row. Another 2 nights I made a Tomato Basil Chicken with fettuccine. I have since then pinned about 10 new tomato basil recipes on Pinterest. I also enjoy just eating cherry tomatoes! My aunt said she craved tomatoes when she was pregnant with her son. And I am having a boy. She is the only other person to have a boy in the family. Maybe it's genetic to want tomatoes while pregnant in our family! Haha!

  • @kriley602774 I'm with you on the sour patch kids!! Pre pregnancy I hardly ate candy and if I did it was chocolate. Now, chocolate is unappealing and I want sour candy all of the time! 
  • @BrunetteBabe722 lol me to about  taco bell. ...more Wendy's though the bacon cheese burgers never tasted sooooo good
  • Pop tarts. I finally caved last week and now I can't seem to quit!
  • Red meat. DH caught me smelling the raw steaks before I put them on the grill and thought I was crazy. Also strawberries, raspberries and peaches COVERED in cream.
  • Coleslaw....weird right? I think it's just because it's cold and crunchy. 
  • @texasmama2014 I read something about Jessica Simpson craving pop tarts when she was pregnant, but she would heat them up and put butter on both sides.
  • lucypodlucypod member
    Sorry all I could think about when I read the title was that you were craving babies...

    Haha! I thought the same thing  :D 

    milkshakes and mexican food. non. stop.

  • The most recent one for me is Mexican food. I had a taco salad 3 nights in a row. 



  • Chipotle. Mac n cheese. Pasta. Chipotle. Chipotle. Watermelon. Clementines. Chipotle...
  • @Whitmore1027, I also seem to have a thing for fresh basil the past several weeks.
  • My cravings have been coming in waves since around 16 weeks. I'll randomly start craving something and that's all I want to eat for about a week, then it switches to something else. Nothing too crazy, but so far I've craved burrito bowls from Moes w/ extra lime juice and hot sauce, Minneola oranges, and some other things I've since forgotten. However, there has been one constant craving since early on - Lay's sour cream and onion chips. I can't get enough of them.
  • jacerujaceru member
    Ice cream! I want ice cream all the time. I have to limit myself to a couple spoon fulls a night
  • @kriley602774 I'm with you on the sour patch kids!! Pre pregnancy I hardly ate candy and if I did it was chocolate. Now, chocolate is unappealing and I want sour candy all of the time! 
    Me too. Finally bought some and have been savoring every one of them.

  • Lemon EVERYTHING.  I hate citrus usually, but this week has been lemon pasta, lemon cake, lemonade...I've also been drinking the juice from my pickle jar.  In my first trimester it was onions, I'd jut eat them like apples, DH thought I was nuts. To be fair, I even thought it was nuts....didn't stop me from doing it though.


  • Ketchup. Not sure why but I want the acidity in ketchup. I would eat a burger and fries daily if it meant I could have ketchup. 

    I I never had cravings like this with my son.

  • i have been craving cottage cheese with banana, Salvadorean empanadas which my mom made me some :) , tamales, fried plantains, pasta, sonic burger, Jamaican chicken, ice cream, hot chocolate, arroz con leche (rice pudding) Mexican cake, corn on the cob with butter parmesan and hot sauce, tacos from taco truck and banana pancakes or waffles
  • Strawberries -- I can easily finish off one of those pound containers in a day. Fruit in general, too (raspberries, pineapple, watermelon) and fruity, tart desserts like fruit popsicles, key lime pie, etc. 

    Also red meat (I've been eating a lot of steaks), Chipotle, fast food burgers (I've only indulged this one a few times), lemonade, shrimp cocktail. 

    I agree with PP that it's very gratifying when you get the thing you crave, and that this is one of the fun aspects of pregnancy. We spent a weekend with friends recently, and in the morning when I said it might be good to put some of my breakfast eggs on last night's leftover enchiladas, my friend said having me around was like having a stoned person with the munchies. I said that's pretty much what it feels like sometimes! 
  • tmk0325tmk0325 member
    Lol @Snaps816 that's exactly what it feels like! 

    My cravings are very similar to yours. I am loving fruit- strawberries, pineapple, watermelon, apples, you name it. Also Mexican food, cheese, Mac and cheese, cereal, and ice cream/Popsicles are on the top of the list as well!

  • Apple's with peanut butter and Hershey cookies and creme bars. I think the Apple's cancel out the chocolate.
  • I've been craving frozen grapes, popsicles, ice water, pretty much anything cold. And then I'll have my sweet craving. I seriously ordered a 5lb bag of gummy bear cubs to put in my frozen yogurt. My hubby laughs every time he sees me getting some. I've really only wanted fresh stuff too. Fruits and veggies. It's helping to keep me gaining too much weight, so that's nice! 
  • Sweets - ice cream, chocolates...I have to switch to yogurt with fresh fruit. 
  • Strawberries and sweets...and I could have cared less about sweets prepregnancy!
  • @snaps816 I actually make enchiladas with scrambled eggs inside for dinner on vegetarian nights and they are delicious! 

    My new must have is apples with almond butter - it's really filling too so that's a plus. 
  • Fruit has been a big one for me too. I bought cherries on Friday and I basically ate the entire bag on our 3hr car ride this weekend.
