Spicy food cravings anyone?

[summer2011]

I've always liked spicy food, but since the start of this pregnancy it's pretty much all i want!

Meat doesn't taste good without some hot sauce, scrambled eggs with tabasco, cayenne pepper and chilli peppers in red sauces.

Am i out of control? Lol. Or does anyone else love spicy flavours right now as well? Hope i don't eventually give myself heartburn

I crave spice on everything so I'm right there with you. I am actually about to have some leftover pizza and jalapenos! Yumm! I literally crave jalapenos on plain corn chips too. My aunt was the same way.

Love jalapenos too lol. Nachos with jalapenos and salsa.... Yum. I always have some crushed chillies to give my pizza some spice too

Sounds like me during my first trimester. Couldn't get enough of curry! It's a popular craving to have. A lot of the women in the second trimester forum have the same craving and are also having boys xx

That's the first time I've heard craving spicy = boy. Chalk one up for the boys

I have had constant spicy food cravings this whole time. With my son, it wasn't anything like this. I've heard old wives' tales that say spicy food cravings mean boy, but I don't believe it. I think it's just how your body reacts in particular to certain hormones. I had a friend crave spicy food the whole 9 months and had a girl.

I was craving chilli rock salt tofu a few weeks back and now can't stand the thought of it

I've always loved spicy food but ever since getting pregnant I've been forced to stay away. Spicy foods give me the worst heart burn/indigestion. I am pretty depressed about it.
