Cravings


So I decided that I need to do a better job of posting on this thing. Not really for whoever reads this but mostly because it is an easy way for me to keep a journal of life's happenings. New goal? Check!!
Today is all about cravings! Haha a lot of people have asked me what, if any, crazy cravings I have had with my pregnancy. I have had a few cravings but i can't really say that any of them are crazy. There is the usual pickles craving but... I've been obsessed with dill pickles my whole life so that's nothing new. Ice cream... yes PLEASE!! But again, nothing new for me. :) Chocolate, sweets in general... was born with a sweet tooth! I would have to say that my biggest craving has been french fries! Wendy's, McDonald's, In'n'out, Sonic... OH SONIC!!! Haha their chili cheese fries are pure bliss for me! I have been taking extra care to get plenty of vegetables and fruit in my diet as well so that this baby isn't just getting crap from me but I definitely can't live without those fries! :)
now for the foods that I haven't really been able to eat. Meat in general hasn't sounded good to me. And it's not that the smell or anything makes me sick. It just hasn't sounded good. Chinese food is another thing. Threw that one up too many times for it to be appealing anymore. I'm hoping that won't last forever cause I really like chinese food! And meat!! Haha Chris is a little frustrated with this because that makes it difficult to plan dinners for ourselves but really we still make meat for him to eat, I just don't eat it. Fish on the other hand, I can still do fish! So that's good I guess.
Anyway, that is my update for the day. if any of you reading this have any fun cravings now that you're pregos, or had any when you were pregos, please share! i love hearing others stories!

  1. The french fries craving was Beck's pregnancy for me. I had them all the time. Camie's was beef: steak, burgers, whatever way you could have beef.

  3. i don't think i've had any crazy cravings either. during the 1st trimester though the only things i wanted to eat were fruits and veggies. everything else was disgusting to me...especially meat and chocolate! (and i LOVE chocolate) but lately i've been craving cheeseburgers and french fries!! i still don't enjoy chicken really. and chocolate still isn't one of my favorite things to eat. pregnancy is weird. but amazing. hope you're doing great!

  5. Hey, i just stumbled upon your blog and to see that you guys are expecting baby #1 made my day! That is such great news. Congrats! It is the best feeling in the world to have a little life growing inside of you. Now we are just trying to convince ours to come out now (today's the official due date). He's getting way to comfy (and big) inside of me. Good luck with everything, and hey, you enjoy those chili cheese fries!
