sit right down & eat it. Only craving was for chipped ice. I loved it.
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?
