What's your MUST HAVE food while PG??

Are you addicted to anything?? I am in LOVE with fruit. Must have some type of fruit everyday. Fruit fruit fruit!! YUM!

Do you hate anything all of a sudden??

I don't hate anything (yet) but I definitely lost my taste for sushi (which I suppose is a good thing anyway)...I used to be addicted to sushi.

I don't hate anything yet.
Last week I was craving meat, specifically hamburgers but then I ate one the other afternoon and it didn't sit well with me so that phase is over.
Hopefully next will be something healhty.
I always crave ice cream, pregnant or not. I am just buying the light stuff.

Pretzels from the mall. Not the healthiest craving, but I need to have one at least once a week. No aversions yet, but I'm sure I'll have a least one.

The week before I found I was PG I needed a juicy hamburger and greasy fries in the WORST way - I made DH take me out EVERYNIGHT! Now it's chocolate and I'm trying really really hard to not give in. Nothing I don't like yet - but I wish that WOULD happen because ALL I DO IS EAT!

2 weeks ago before I found out I was PG all I wanted was hamburgers as well. Last week though I was sick all week and nothing sounded good to me. I'm already sick of toast and crackers. The last 2 days though I have been craving turkey so I'm going to make a turkey breast for dinner tonight.

Mine is definitely chocolate, I wish it was fruit. You are lucky, your cravings are healthy. Mine are making my butt get as big as my belly

In the early stages I had lots of must have things - but mostly pizza, fruit and anything with melted cheese. I had weeks where cereal was my thing. Weeks where fruit was my things. Weeks were donuts were tasty. Luckiy candy/chocolate never was something I had to have. Unfortunately, I have GD and can't eat much of any good stuff because of the dumb diet I am on and I dying for some real yummy food. I miss Mexican (this is my must have even before pregnancy)!!!

My biggest aversion is chicken - I really haven't been about to eat too much of that the entire pregnancy and for awhile I could eat pork either.

I'm tremendously nauseous so virtually everything makes me gag. DH wanted to eat his famous veggie Chili last night, but I turned green just at the thought. I used to LOVE LOVE LOVE veggies and cous cous, but it's making me sick. Every morning I usually eat grapenuts, but I can't anymore.

The only stuff I CAN eat is breakfast food - oatmeal, cream of wheat, eggs, toast, crackers, cheerios, oh and yesterday I got the worst, worst, worst craving for pancakes. I'm a vegetarian and every night I've been having dreams that I'm eating chicken

When I was pregnant all I wanted was meat, meat and more meat. I could have had steaks and burgers every night.

I went through a Cinnamon Toast Crunch phase for awhile and then anything coffee flavored which is so wierd b/c I don't drink coffee LOL.

The one thing I wouldn't go near was pork - even when food shopping I couldn't even look at it.

The one thing I can't handle is chicken and if I am cooking it, that's even worse! Cravings have changed weekly

When I was pregnant I had cravings for cheese. I also had cravings for chocalate.
Of course, I ate them in moderation.
While pregnant, I couldn't eat chicken and red meat grossed me out too. It was so strange.

OJ. I could NOT start my day with out a glass. It was the first thing I did in the morning, that is besides pee I also had the cravings for greasy foods, in particular hamburgers. I wanted them every night. DH was going nuts cooking them out on our grill in the freezing cold winter last year

Up till now it has been Baskin Robbins Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream. But i think I overdid it and currently have been eating tons of cereal with blueberries...YUM. Probably a good thing as I seem to be growing everywhere BUT my belly!!

Also, eggs have competely grossed me out. I know they're supposed to be so good for you and the baby so I try to sneak them in if I make chicken cutlets or eggplant parm or the like.

As for me... I haven't really craved anything specific all the time, just that I've had spontaneous cravings for pizza, or vanilla wafers, or strawberries, or steak/burger, or DEFINITELY McDs fries/hashbrowns.

My aversion hasn't been anything either, but I have noticed that I'd rather cook steak & pork chops, than chicken.

ok, this is really gross, but for the first few weeks all I wanted was brussel sprouts with a big glass of chocolate milk.
Now this week I cannot live without a everything bagel with lettuce, tomato and mayo, and this weekend, Entenmann's cinnamon buns with a big glass of milk, I think I gained 5 lbs this weekend alone!!!

I am right now living on Ellios pizza and LOVE french fries!!

I used to eat a lot of chocolate but don't really want it anymore. Used to love broccoli (one of the only veggies I like) but the thought makes me gag.

The things that I really crave are basically carbs of any kind .
