Rumbley In My Tumbley
I feel like these 4 months I have craved everything and anything but I fear im giving birth to a picky eater because I crave something for three days only want that and then cant dream of touching it again and the idea of it makes me sick to my tummy. Before I knew I was pregnant I was eating peporoni pizza out the bung hole (my boyfriend and I worked at a cicis pizza) and I have never ever ever like peporoni (or any pork besides baccon my whole life) ... But now if I try and eat it it makes me sick and I cant even imagine that I ate it at all ... Ick.

Salt & vinegar chips. I *never* ate them before I got pregnant, and now they're all I ever want. That and freshly baked brownies. Mmm, brownies...

When you crave stuff it means your body is lacking something you need...If you get weird cravings like paper (very weird! Lol especially eating sheets of it...Hahaha you weirdo!) or dirt you should talk to your doctor.
I craved meat for about a week (i am not a fan of meat very much especially red- but that was right around christmas so there were parties galor with those meat/cheese platters- I was in heaven) and then I didn't crave anything. Since I don't eat meat I guess my body needed the iron or something.

With .Oliver I craved potatoes!
Roasted potatoes
jacket potatoes
mashed potatoes
and coco pops (they are a breakfast cereal. Made from puffed grains of rice [like rice krispies] but with a chocolate flavour).
Fortunately I didn't crave them at the same time lol
after I came out of hospital I craved chocolate like you wouldn't believe I mean i'd eat 2-3 500g bars of cadbury's whole nut per day and yet I rarely eat chocolate.
When we have chocolate it's normally a big toblerone or something and it sits in the fridge for days and we each have a piece or two per day.

Ut oh beckster its starting... I got sick around 7 weeks so maybe its just a lil sooner this time for you.
My friend said the dr asked her if she was craving paper, dirt, or ice. I guess when you crave those things it means there is something wrong and you arent getting something you really need to be getting. So after you started taking iron did it go away?

At the moment, i'm craving chocolate.. And sugary cereals.. And sweets! Everyone thinks it's going to be a girl coz all I crave is sweet things.. I dunno how true that is though.
I ate sweet stuff quite a lot before, but this is mad, I seriously can't eat much else - due to sickness, mainly.. But my body always seems to find time to want chocolate when i'm not feeling sick!

hi thanks I guess so. And no my craving never stopped. I craved right up until I had him. I had some in my handbag at the delivery room and ate it about an hour after having him. I was a mad woman!

Might not be related but paper contains cellulose which is the substance that holds cells together :0

i'm taking iron pills too but I still want ice.
But other than that I dont' like much unless it's frozen. I like frozen corn on the cob, or kernals of corn, frozen birds eye peas.
And popsicles yummy
