Weird cravings!!

[Charliexoxo]

I thought i'd ask if anyone else is having strange cravings, just for fun!

I've started to go mad for ice and crunching it, i cant get enough, I think about it all day at work until i get home and can get my fix!! I know quite alot of pregnant women get this one though!

My new one which is really odd is i'm really loving sponges!! I woke up in the night and was even thinking about sponges and feeling them all lathered up with soap!! I started to really loveeee washing up because i loved the feeling of the suddy sponge but now I want to get a sponge to wash myself in the bath and just generally rub them! I was even going to bring one into work today to have on my desk to touch!!

Anyone else?!!

Lol never heard of a sponge craving but with my daughter it was a fusty smell like an old garage!! Weird! Anyway this time I think again its smells as I really reallllyyy love the smell of eggshell paint! :/ despite it being bad for me! Luckily for me my partner has painted all of my daughters furniture and the babies with this paint he will soon be making a start on the skirting boards and doors lol! Xx

Sponges here too, i wet it with cold water, squeeze out as much as i possibly can then chew on it. I think about it in bed, i think about it when im out and keep sponges upstairs and downstairs so i can get my fix.
I got it last time too, as soon as id had him it went. I even tried it once he was born to see if it brought me any comfort but it did nothing! Glad to see other sponge fans

Noooooo! I hope mine doesn't go away so soon after. The cravings are so intense that they are really enjoyable aren't they? xx
