black pudding

[bubbles777]

Hey, anyone know if it's okay to eat black pudding during pregnancy? I have major cravings for it. also having major cravings for red meat, haggis anything meaty except chicken i've went right off chicken. I didn't think my body would be craving so much iron cause i do eat a lot of spinach!

I don't know what black puddng is but I eat a lot of spinach and am craving red meat something fierce. I ate a whole pound of the fattiest ground beef I could find last night, mixed with veggies. I want to chase cows right in the field >_<

Lol. i know me too! There was a deer outside my house the other night and all i could think of was how it would make good venison sausages. i know this probably sounds disgusting but black pudding is made of sheep's blood and its like dried and fried i can't explain it. im not sure if it would fall into the same category as liver as i don't know if it contains lots of vitamin a. im a meat fiend right now. i absolutely wish i lived in the states cause a taco bell would do me right now.

Black pudding sounds yummy, I told DH last night I wanted to fresh sqeeze a steak like an orange for a glass of 'juice'. I also want to eat a fresh heart and other organs I alsways did love a super bloody steak but this is really bizarre.

With my DD I ate nothing but Taco Bell it seemed, and we had to drive two hours to get to the closest one. We did it like 2 or 3 times a week, it was downright stupid

Dont see why not, as long as you have cooked it properly x

I've eaten a lot of lack pudding and white. Aslong as cooked thouroughly I am sure it is fine.

The women in my family brought their children up on Pudding with the odd guiness and all we are all fine (I hope lol)

I did ask my midwife and she said it's okay, that even Dr's precribed guiness in the old days

I can't eat fruit which I normally gorge myself on, and I love chicken too but it just seems like blah when it's cooked but the raw small of it gags me... My taster is off and nothng tastes the way it should. But I still crave veggies and red meat, Bubbles said spinach above and I had to go out and get some!

I heard that if you crave meat you're likely expecting boy! I'm not craving meat yet, and fast food really is gross to me. Anything fried and greasy, eck.

I hope so! I craved dairy with my daughter.
