Cravings

[Gabi]

Ok so we know that one of the most common things about pregnancy (according to media ) are cravings.

I wasn't expecting them so soon. It's completely impossible to stomach anything at the moment with morning..... noon and NIGHT sickness. But I've had this incessant desire to eat mashed potatoes now for over a week.
Last night I demanded cottage pie. Dear hubby's doing all the cooking now since I can't handle the kitchen.

It's not that I'm craving potatoes. It's just mashed potatoes. I'm mad about them.

Anyone else noticing early cravings?

I didn't have any until a couple of days ago I was standing in my kitchen and I got a strong wiff of banana milkshake. There was no bananas in our kitchen!!! So yesterday I went out and stocked up on asmuch as I could carry

i havent really had much luck with food , but at one stage i did crave oranges
and nartjies ( gabi will understand what that is) that was early on
then about a week ago i had to have an ice cream and went out to get it, bought a whole lot of other food, and forgot the ice cream! so i wanted it so badly i went back for it once i had got all the way home!

I can't get enough mexican food, I would eat it every night if hubby would let me and if I didn't gain extra weight doing it, lol!!! I'll crave other stuff, go out and buy it from the store, eat it once and then not want it anymore. Weird....

Ooooh naartjies. My husband lives for them. I can't handle them. LOL Pregnant or not!
The only thing I can handle with naartjies is naartjie juice when I'm really really REALLY thirsty. It's the most kwenching thing out there!
That's the only way I'll have them

I had a ham and silverskin onion sandwich for breakfast the other day, but I do love pickled onions, and I think I was using pregnancy as an excuse. Tee Hee !!

With my last pregnancy it was pineapples as well!! I was eating them till they were coming out my ears. But I ate so much that it made the side of my tongue raw. So everytime I ate one after that it stung... Not a pleasant combination

I must be abnormal LOL

I never had any real cravings through my first few pregnancies, and so far none with my current one. Not those real cravings that send out your hubby at midnight to buy what you want and need. LOL I guess my hubby should thank me for this

 

[Vickie]

I haven't had any real cravings so far....DH is very happy about that lol

I don't know if I'm craving anything but I would kill for Jacket potato and tuna with lots of mayo , I haven't had one in so long I'm desperate lol. But I have gone really really hungry in the last week, right now I'm stopping myself from going downstairs and raiding the fridge for lots of fatty stuff!

And all this week I've been wanting a cheese and onion pasty for my dinner , I ate them cause they where so good yummy.
