Any other mom to be or moms have a craving for ice while pregnant? It's all I crave besides tacos and its getting obsessive almost!

I mentioned it to both my doctor and my dietician cuz I've heard the anemia thing before and neither of them seemed to worry about it. Doctor said I don't need to take the iron unless It goes up to all day ice eating which it's mainly when I'm at work or my parents house that I eat it...maybe it's still worth another mention to the doctor though?

Better take some iron.  You need a lot during pregnancy, and craving ice is a sign of anemia.
