So, is anyone having cravings??!?! I read all about different symptoms but no one has said anything about cravings.

I have no clue if i'm pregnant (i have actually convinced myself i'm not at this point) - but I did have the period cramps for about 3 weeks without a period, got lightheaded when I worked out (so now I work-out with less intensity), and as far as cravings, I felt that orange juice tasted 100x better than it ever has before (i liked it before too) and the thought of chocolate made me nasseas.

However, now, I have not stopped thinking about chocolate and craving it and orange juice tastes normally good, not 100x more than usual.

Did anyone have cravings that came and went when they were first pregnant? I'm not a chocolate person except when i'm pmsing, so maybe i'm just pmsing, I guess i'll find out if I get my period before I take another test. However, I have never had such an amazing taste of orange juice when i'm pmsing (but my allergies could have been good so I tasted the oj better:).....Who knows...I feel like i'm trying to find every reason to think i'm pregnant...But I don't think I am anymore b/c I don't want to get excited for nothing!!!

I think you can have cravings very early in your pregnancy. My sister used to eat pickles with peanut butter her first month in. It is just a way for your body to get all of the nutrients it needs for the baby. You may be pregnant. I would wait until missed period and then test. Or you could call your doc. Well best of luck. Lots of baby dust.

Some women do get cravings when they are pregnant, others do not. I get cravings and I am not pregnant, sometimes it is just nerves and anxiety but if you do want to be pregnant I hope that they are pregnancy cravnigs. Keep us posted!
Good luck to you and happy holildays!
