I didn’t think I craved anything until a work colleague pointed out that I was eating scrambled egg and spinach muffins every day! Our Daughter loves this combo so I guess she was craving it!
Nope, I didn’t have cravings. I went off chocolate and coffee, still don’t drink much coffee. And due to morning sickness, I could only eat some foods for a while
I craved rice and potatoes my entire pregnancy. If we went out to eat I either had rice with sauce or hot chips. In the beginning I ate so much Indian food that chicken started making me really sick, as did all red meats. When I was turned off Indian I found a new love for arancini balls.
Also for about a week I craved cheese flavoured rice cakes with nutella and grated carrot. When I finally ate it I brought it back up and never gave into it again.
To be honest, I didn’t. But I know lots of people that did. I felt weird being different from the rest, but I guess it depends each person is different. Even each pregnancy is as well.
Food cravings tend to come down to what your body associates with that food. For example…if your body knows you’re not eating enough to sustain what it needs to do it will crave sweet things so you eat, if you’re for example low in iron it might crave red meat or spinach..low in magnesium might crave dark chocolate. Low in idone, craves salt …low in antioxidants , might crave berries….low in vit c, might crave citrus fruit (this are just what seems to rein true with myself and I know everyone is different )
na, you want the truth I’ll give it to yah. People use being pregnant as a excuse to eat more because there ‘ eating for 2′ or the ‘baby’s craving things’ its all a load of bull which is why some women gain ridiculous amounts of weight. Women get in the mind frame there gunna crave food so they do, I had 3 kids ate normal and still had treats and lost all my baby weight within a few months by eating right and exercising. My cousin 6 years later after kids is 50kgs heavier and still blames her pregnancies. That’s the difference.
