    I craved lots of sweets in the very beginning.. weird creations like waffles with peanut butter, honey, sryup, nuts, whip cream, m &m's , almonds, peaches : all that in one big dish! It was sooo gooood! Oh and I couldn't get enough whole milk and grilled cheese sandwhiches..

    Then the second trimester was when I craved spinach and Kale..whole grains..all the healthy stuff..

    Can't remember what it was third trimester, i was getting too uncomfortable that thats all i can remember

    first child, it was pecan candybars and coke

    second child, twinkies and dark chocolate, both of which I hate with a passion.

    third child, halapeno poppers, again, something I hate, but ate every time I turned around.

    For ds, I practically lived on D'Angelo's chicken caesar salad wraps. Every night, dh and I would polish off a 1/2 gal of ice cream. Mmmmm!

    So far, no cravings, but a few things are really turning me off. Yesterday, I ate a Caramel Cadbury Egg- it was gross, it was just too sweet, and normall I love those things!

    With my first child, I craved candy apples and Mexican food. It was tough to get candy apples in those days! Had to pray a carnival came to town!LOL! With my second child I craved Hostess cherry or lemon pies and ate tons of ice. My MIL kept telling me that eating ice all the time meant I was enemic. My doctor laughed but, went ahead and did a blood test. He called me, that evening, at home and told me to go right out to get some iron pills. I guess some of those "Old Wives Tales" can be very true.

    ROFL...promise not to gag....peanutbutter milkshakes. And I don't particularly care for either peanutbutter OR milkshakes LOL! And to topit all, this was 30 years ago when you pretty much had three choices ...chocolate, vanilla, or strawberry...unless you wanted to make them yourself. I burned up two blenders!

    I craved pizza and mexican food (both of which the respective kids LOVE...!) ! I had a friend who craved COMET!!! She tried to refrain from eating it, but loved to "sniff" it while she cleaned. I wouldn't reccommend that though!
