Craving salad like crazy

[Brz04]

I always figured I would crave weird stuff during pregnancy or unhealthy foods, but I have been craving salad (I think it has something to do with the crunchy lettuce?? Weird), fresh fruit, ice water (not to eat the ice, just so the water is super cold) and cottage cheese (pasteurized of course). My DH thinks I'm nuts and keeps waiting for me to request pickles and ice cream but at least my cravings are really healthy!! For now anyways...haha

It's nice to have healthy cravings! I had cravings for weeks for tuna with loads of green salad with olive oil and balsamic vinegar! Yum!

I have been craving salad lately too. I usually eat it for lunch and dinner. I was so upset last night, I was getting everything out to make my salad and realized I forgot to buy lettuce I was soooo disappointed!

oooh a big salad sounds delish!!! when i was pregnant with my daughter i craved ice water. before i knew i was even pregnant. i dont usually drink water (sweet tea is my weakness) but i would NEED ice cold water all day long. i remember the one day my husband was getting drinks before dinner and didnt put any ice in my water, i took a sip and literally started crying because it wasnt cold enough. haha. i also cried over him eating stale cereal at one point during that pregnancy too.

think ill go make myself a salad now.

I craved a lot of salad early on and then it shifted to fruit. I have been crazy for fruit this pregnancy but much of it was sweet and salty. I would crave watermelon with feta and/or olives. I would eat peaches but I would salt them or eat them with plain yogurt so I get more tang to it.

I've been eating olives like crazy and also, I loved water before pregnancy but now I can't seem to drink anything but fruit juice.

Mostly this pregnancy my cravings have been fruit, cheese and olives.

I went through a phase of eating salad all the time and I also like to eat the ready made pasta salad tubs. I love ice cold water too I've always got a bottle in the freezer prepared lol

This pregnancy has been all about salads and fresh fruit for me. Very unusual for me during pregnancy! Maybe this baby will be a health nut?!
