Are cravings real?

Question

What cravings have you ladies had?

I'm currently 21+5 weeks and have had NO cravings...? Too early? Do we have cravings based on the nutrients our bodies are lacking? Or... Is it just an excuse to eat all the goodies we want? ...which I wouldn't mind lol 😁🍕🍿🍪🍫🍭🍡🌯🌮🍔🍟🌭🍤🍗🌶🌽🍍🍝

Answer

I haven't had any either. But I also don't limit myself. If I want something, I enjoy it. But I have had no crazy cravings or sending the hubby out in the middle of the night either.

Answer

Right now, it's pancakes for me. I used to rarely eat them and never actually craved them until pregnancy, and now I could eat them for every meal! They're not nutritious, so I doubt my body's lacking anything from the, but who knows?

Answer

LOL consider yourself lucky. Personally, I don't know the science (if any) behind cravings. What I do know is that they're real and different with each pregnancy. They began at about 12 weeks for me this time around. I can't have bread, and I have to stay well stocked on apples. I had a craving for ice cream cake. I tried to ignore it, but two weeks later I still wanted some. My major craving is fruit right now. With my first, popcorn! With my second, ribs and steak. I actually have to force myself to take in some fat this time around. All I want are apples and celery!

Answer

I crave mangos 😍

Answer

I'm 20 weeks and haven't had any food craving either.

Answer

Spicy/foods with a kick for me! Jalapeño cheddar Cheetos, Thai food, Colby jack jalapeño cheddar bites. Crawfish, I think about daily. And slushies lol one of my all time favorite foods since I was a kid, lasagna, I can't stand now :(
