First it was just little odd things like - I wonder how this pickle would taste with marshmallow fluff? Then I couldn't get enough oranges - orange soda, orange ade, orange juice, etc . . . My sister-in-law keeps saying it's too early to be having cravings but I can't seem to help it. Also - I was a huge meat-eater and now can't stand any pork or sausage. I can eat beef and chicken but it
s not the same as before I was pregnant.

Had no cravings until now..... Now crave wet bath sponges and flannels..... just want to bite them and rub my tongue on them..... when i finally gave in and indulged myself last week the relief was amazing! Also need to crunch ice for an hour before bed too. Would love to know why this is happening.

I can't get enough chinese food. I could eat cream cheese wontons all the time. But, I limit myself on this, since it probably is not very healthy. But, I don't crave sweets, and I love cottage cheese and milk.

I am so pleased to say, I have not had any strange cravings! I did however a couple weeks back really want bagels with cream cheese and sliced avacado on it! I don't wake up in the middle of the night wanting to eat anything. I have happily increased my veggies and fruit, lightened up on my bread products, &as a result, I have maintained the same weight throughout my pregnancy.I am currently 6mos&2 wks pregnant. I walk every day into work,5 days a wk,for 45minutes.My doc says I'm the healthiest pregnancy she's seen in a very long time! I'm extatic!Hopefully my 3rd trimester is as pleasant.
