To all woman that are or have been pregnant

[Daisy and Delilah]

With my son, I drove by KFC every day to get to work. I almost puked in the car every time. It was all I could do to get by there and it was the only way to work. All from the smell of the place. After that passed, I craved homemade southern creamed corn off the cob and fresh sliced tomatoes. I would travel to the ends of the earth to find a produce stand that had corn and tomatoes. Today, my son hates both

With my daughter, I had to make biscuits, sausage, gravy, and eggs every morning for my husband before work. At 5 a.m. I was completely nauseous and almost unable to make it through the process. After it was on the table I had to get outside and get some air. After that passed, I craved jello of all flavors. I had to have it every day.

Sadly, absolutely nothing bothered me when I was pregnant ... except the foods I normally hate anyway, olives and onions. Bleck!!

And the only thing I craved was potato chips with salsa.

I never hated any foods while I was pregnant with the boys, just the smell of gasoline mad me sick to my stomach. I did crave a lot.

With Austin - Subway Cold Cut Trio with B.B.Q sauce and cheetohs along with the sandwich and dipped in B.B.Q. sauce.

With Tyler - Blueberry bleguim (SP?) waffles.....smothered in whip cream!!

Hot dogs! OMG! I coudn't stand the smell/taste/sight of hot dogs when I was pregnant with Hugito.

And I couldn't get enough Malt-o-meal. I hadn't had it since I was like 12, but I couldn't stop eating it. That and mac n cheese and limes (not at the same time).

And the funny thing is that Hugito loves all of them.

I didn't hate any foods when I was pregnant, but I couldn't live without baked potatoes. Mmmm...

I've had weird cravings all my life, so I don't really know if the things I am craving now have anything to do with pregnancy or not. I do seem to be having trouble with the smell of ground meat cooking, and for some reason salads have been turning my stomach. I hope I can get past that, because salads are usually my favorite. I have sort of been craving a chipped ham and potato chip sandwich with mayo though. I haven't had one of those since I was little.

[Pawsitive Thinking]

I don't remember hating anything but do remember my favourite meal being a plate of broccoli, topped with pilchards and washed down with Ribena milk.......

I couldn't stand chinese food. It turned my stomach. Still, 2.5 years later, it really hasn't changed.

LOL same with me.... I remember one time I came out of the kitchen with Dill pickles and chocolate milk LOL it almost made my brother in law sick to HIS stomach just watching me eat it lol. He says "what kind of combo is that? are you pregnant" LOL but I wasn't.... I just eat wierd things lol.

I can't say that I have had any cravings yet. Well... other than Burger King Whoppers but I always crave those lol.

I lucked out, I never got morning sickness. I could eat anything and nothing grossed me out. As long as I didn't drive (or be a passanger) in a car on an empty stomach I was fine. I did feel carsick from driving on an empty stomach but that was about it. As far as cravings, I craved McDonalds Big Macs all the time. I also craved ice cream, but I think most pregnant woman crave ice cream. I hope my future pregnancy(s) is as easy as my pregnancy with Quinn. I couldn't have asked for an easier time at it.

I was never turned off by any food during pregnancy. I could & did, eat everything. I had to watch my weight & the Doc wanted my weight to not
go over 133 lbs. While cooking any meats, I had to have the exhaust fan
on high. The smell of the meat while cooking made me feel sick, but I could
sit right down & eat it. Only craving was for chipped ice. I loved it.

I've never been pregnant, but when my mom was pregnant with me, she CRAVED McD's Fish Sandwiches. My poor dad... with a McD's on just about every corner, they had to leave way early just to get anywhere.

Not sure if there was food she disliked.

[Roxyluvsme13]

I'm way too young to be pregnant, but my mom..

She couldn't stand mustard or fried chicken. She LOVES mustard. So, it was weird. And she craved cottage cheese, tomato soup, italian dressing, and I think some other stuff.

I know I am only 15 weeks along.... but I have not gained a pound yet I have actually lost 12.

I have no increased appetite what so ever. It seems wierd cause I always hear how pregnant women want to eat everything and anything.

The only smell I can't stomach is chicken cooking.... I haven't done any cooking for some time though because I am always too tired by the time I get home from work. Hubby does all the cooking... he is a better cook than me anyway. but I feel bad lol because he loves chicken but has been refraining from eating it. LOL I told him to make some chicken for himself the other night because I know it must be killing him to not have it every once in a while.

My mom was a chipped ice kind of lady when she was pregnant with my brother.... with me it was for ice water.

When do cravings usually start? right away or later on?
