What craving did you have when you were pregnant?

I am about 37 weeks pregnant and my craving are (on and off) chocolate and cakes. But I try to control them since they are not healthy and I'm scared of the diabetic prone.

I had a craving for chicken foot and jerked pork. What you could do too is buy what you like and have it in stock. Normally cravings are for what you liked before. To his day I love chikcen foot and jerk pork.

I've been having cravings for chocolate off and on. My main craving has been french fries! My husband even went out and got me some from McD's at abou 2 am! I was shocked!

I often hear about those cravings during pregnancy and especially those weird ones. But when I was pregnant I never really craved that much for a particular food. For the first four months of my pregnancy I couldn't eat at all. I just wanted to throw up all the time! But when on my fourth month, it took an opposite turn, and I just gobbled up everything in sight! Hehehe. I was really hungry all the time.

with my first I craved cheese burgers - fast food variety. yuck! with my 5th I craved hot peppers and ate them by the jar full. with my 7th I was so very sick from the 4th month on that I had no cravings or desires for food. I had gestational diabetes, gallstones, and worst of all pancreatitis (caused by the gallstones blocking the common duct) excruciating pain, I lost over 70 pounds during the pregnancy.

For me it was steak! Filet mignon to be exact. Oh yes, and covered in A-1 steak sauce...as the commercial says, yes it's that good! I couldn't eat enough red meat...strange because I may eat red meat 4 times a month now, opting more for chicken and fish. What is really strange is that my little boy craves red meat all of the time...could this be carried over from the pregnancy? Maybe it was he that caused me to go ga ga over steak! Good question!

Sour candy was the biggest crazing that I had. I ate so much sour candy, it was insane. I would buy several rolls of shock tarts on my way into work, and by the end of the day they would all be gone. My other major craving was broccoli, which was really funny because I HATED broccoli before that. The first time I ordered broccoli cheese soup while at a restaurant with my husband, he looked at me like I'd gone mad, then started saying I must have been replaced with an alien or something. lol

I had several cravings, but they were all phases. In order, they were : watermelon, tomatos, peaches, curly fries, grapefruit, sour stuff like candy or pickles, popscicles. I also craved chocolate off and on, but that's not necessarily because I'm pregnant, that's because I love chocolate!

When I was pregnant, I had the strangest craving--Potatoes! I had to have potato soup, french fries, baked potatoes, mashed, scalloped.. you name it I was all over it! I'm lucky my daughter didnt come out looking like a potato! =P
