Anyone craving orange juice with Ice???

Ladies, I don't know what's going on with me but I've been drinking OJ like crazyyyyyyyyyy. I'm normally not an OJ drinking to begin with so I'm guessing is the pregnancy. Everytime I get up in the morning I HAVE TO HAVE a glass of OJ. Then when I get to work I have another another class full of ice. It tastes sooo gooddddddddd.

The other day my DH and and I got into a fight b/c he had drank the last bit of OJ left and I went on a ramp page. After towards I thought to myself, "it's just OJ and why did I go off like that" so I later apologized to my DH about my attitude in the morning and of course he understand. I'm sure he thinks I'm crazy.

Is anyone else clinging/craving or becoming obsessed with certain foods?

PLS LET ME KNOW I'm not going CrAZY HERE!

I have been craving OJ.....frequently throughout this pregnancy.    In fact I made my 19 year old go get me some this morning.  It's sooo refresshing....haven't tried it with the ice, but I can't seem to get enough.

Don't feel bad...I got mad at my DH because I found out he's been tapping into my light vanilla soy milk.  I thought for sure no one in this house would have liked it but me, but there he was pouring himself a glass.   Nothing is safe in my house.  I even had fat free milk for me and they drank that too!!

I craved it a lot in the beginning with this pregnancy and the last.  I usually buy the carton but I started buying cans because it is cheaper.  I would go through at least one carton or can a day.  Often more.  I still have to have it in the morning but I don't crave it all day anymore.  Two of my friends had the same thing.  Maybe it is the folic acid???

In the beginning of my pregnancy, with this one and with my son, all I wanted was ice cold OJ!!! I normally don't drink it much either, so I knew it was pregnancy related. But once my m/s kicked in, I couldn't stomach it anymore. Somedays I really want it, but I am afraid! hopefully once my m/s goes away I can have some again. Lately I have been loving strawberry milk...every morning I have to have a glass! It's like my morning fix! haha. =)

I drink OJ like crazy! Last night my dh made himself a screwdriver and I could have punched him out. Hello that's my OJ! How dare he touch it, lol. Worse than that is when my son who loves oj pours a huge glass of it and I get so mad. I just look at him and think what a little thief. I can't get enough of it I buy three gallons at a time now. I'm a little protective over a few food items like that it's pretty funny.

I did the same thing with OJ actually. I only had a small bottle and found out my husband drank it. I was soooo mad. Then I felt silly later. Yes though I have been wanting OJ like crazy, so your not alone.
