What do you ...........

crave and what do you NOT want to eat while pregnant?

I've had days when I wanted cheese,some days I wanted to snack on pickles and some days I just felt like noodle soup.

Turn-offs have been chicken, pork and any meat thats not well done.

I crave everything I cannot have now, but I never really went thru a 'must have' food.
I always hated Chinese food so I still do. My food habits didn't really get effected by the pregnancy in all honestly.

Cravings have been grilled cheese, bagels, peanut butter sandwiches on FRESH Wonder white bread, Young Chow fried rice, and Super Pretzels (the kind you buy frozen at the grocery store).

Turn offs are CHICKEN in all forms, and all other Chinese food besides the aforementioned Young Chow fried rice.

But I only have it once a week so I don't make a tuna mercury baby.

I guess this is a good thing but I just have to turn my head away to sweets!
I thought I would crave them but they make me sick lately..
I have been eating regular, havent really had any major cravings, just hungry 24-7

OMG Jodi! That is me. Hungry 24-7. I will eat something and feel like I haven't eaten a thing.
How far along are you?

Sue,
I posted about this a long time ago and I STILL can't stop eating.
I am about 25 weeks but since I was about 15 weeks I dont get cravings for food I get seriously hungry, like I need to eat or i'm gonna pass out!
I can eat a whole meal and get STARVED about 2 hours later..
Amazingly though I only gained 7 pounds..
I think thats cause I was very very sick the first 15 weeks and lost lots of weight from nausea

I didn't have any morning sickness. I did feel queasy at times. I am always hungry even right after I eat. If I don't eat, I feel really sick.
This litte one is a hungry little thing!

Goodness all this food talk is making me starving and I just had a bowl of cerial an hour ago..
Lets see what else I can get my gruby little hands on...

I went through cravings and then they passed. I cant say I craved anything all 9 months. Just to name a few:

black & white Carvel shakes
tuna melts (yuck!)
V8 vegetable drink (yuck!)
once I craved a matzoh broken in half with a slice of swiss cheese in the middle, like a sandwich. I had to have it that night! LOL!!!

3 days before the baby was born, I was DYING for rice pudding made a very specific way (firm rice, custard top) and I made a huge casserole of it. DH didnt like the custard top so it was left just to me. That was all I ate for 2 days - every meal.

What I couldnt stand to see, smell or think about:

coffee
broccoli
any kind of gravy especially beef gravy
pepper

It's so funny what pregnancy does to your taste.

I didnt have coffee for months after the baby but now I'm back to being a slave to it again. I never reacquired a taste for pepper on anything, I cant stand it.
