I am 32 weeks and just in thepast few weeks I have started to have cravings. Well just oe really and I think it is a Very Strange one!!
I crave ICE!!!!!!!!!! All I want to do it eat ice! LOL

With my DD i craved Olive Garden..all you can eat soup and salad adn it started pretty early on in the pregnacy.

Well, i am 34 wks tomorrow. I haven't really had any cravings through the pregnancy. I am craving sweet stuff now. That's bad b/c i can't have real sweet stuff due to g/d. GRRR! So i have to stick with stuff sweetened with splenda.

I am 8+ weeks.  I am craving Big Macs and milkshakes (both of which I normally hate)

At WIC they told me when you crave ice, it could mean your iron is low, which is nothing to worry about bc the dr just gives you iron pills.  Good Luck! and God Bless!

Yes, I have heard the same thing about chewing ice. Over the weekend I got some jelly belly green apple jelly beans and they were SO good! I ate a big bag in just two days! I know it's not good for me, but just thinking about them makes my mouth water. Other than that, I just get sudden cravings for something very specific. If I do, I go get it as soon as I can. Last week it was Red Lobster. I had the crab linguine alfredo and cheesy garlic biscuits. YUM!

I am 21w5d and although I havent actually craved anything as of yet, I have been told I have a weird sense of appetite.....it is summer over here and the fruit season is huge....plus I love cheese (sliced cheddar cheese) so I slice apples or pineapple or pears or bananas or mangoes and slap on a slice of cheese and hoe into it! lol  my dh laughs and just says it may not be a craving but a normal person wouldnt think to put such things together..lol

Well, it's not like Big Macs have that much real meat anyway!!

The worst part is about 3 bites in I get really sick.

Now I am craving lemon chicken, but the thought of cooking it makes me want to hurl.

That's cute, I crave Big Macs and milkshakes too!  I did with my son as well, but haven't been able to eat much meat until recently.  I'm 29 weeks 4 days and have more aversions than cravings, but the cravings are so funny and so intense.  I also crave ice, but in my water, can't get enough ice water.  Have a huge glass sitting next to me right now.  I'm not low in iron, but I have heard the same thing about ice.

Before I knew I had G.D., by biggest cravings were chicken nuggets/strips, ranch dressing and french fries. (But especially the ranch dressing)!!!! (I even had it on my spaghetti once :-| LOL Now, I'm craving all those wonderful sweets I can't have, good thing I have Splenda-Jell-O and splenda Jelly!!!! ;-) (and special sugar-free popsicles)
