Craving ..... drugs

With my other pregnancies I craved alcohol (normally hate it) but with this time I have been craving marijuana and narcotics. I'm not sure why because I haven't drugs for 15 years and I never liked them. My doctor offered to give me Percocet for leg pain. I didnt tell him why but I refused because of the feelings I've been having. Has this happened to anyone else?

Okay I know this in no way compares but I haven't drank pop (soda) much the past couple years and now it's all I want. Maybe because you know it's a no-no?

I think just wanting things you aren't supposed to have. I crave seafood and never ate it before. And for a while I kept wanting lunch meat. Not as major as drugs though. I'm not even a drinker but I can't wait to have a drink and cigarette after my baby gets here.

I've never heard of this. I've heard women wanting alcohol but I think its a you can't do it so you want it kind of thing. But props to you for not taking the pills your doctor was going to give you.
