my weirdest pregnancy craving was with my first child. it was milk. not so weird unless you're allergic to it. even weirder is that it didn't make me sick while i was pregnant with her.

Well I would say count your blessings and in the same breath I will say you are missing out on something great. Its amazing to think that my daughter grew inside of me and I gave her life. When I see her it is hard to think that she was in my stomach! I always called her " The Gremlin" When she was in my stomach :P she would move around so much it looked like something was abuot to pop right through my skin!

My niece is a nurse and had the same thing going on. She says it is called a PICA and is common in pregnant women. Her hubby caught her almost taking a bite out of a stick of butter, her deoderant, and a candle. We tease her about it all the time. It really is a medical condition though. Something about the baby is lacking a vitamin perhaps?

When you crave things that aren't food during pregnancy isn't that a sign of low iron or something like that? I didn't have any weird cravings. I just craved food in general. lol :)
