I was standing at the train station last week waiting for my train when all of a sudden, I noticed the sprinkled salt on the ground and I had to resist the urge of dipping my finger into it and just tasting the salt. If I was totally alone there I probably would have done it! If thats not weird I don't know what is!!

This is my first pregnancy. First all I wanted was cottage cheese with pancakes and real maple syrup, or just a block of mozzerella cheese now 1 week later all I want is salad salad salad and real fruit smoothies

My apetite has changed alot! I will be craving something one minute, but when i get half way through eating it, the craving changes, and i cant stomach what i'm eating! It literally makes me sick!

I have not had any real weird cravings. I don't like to eat our usual weekly spaghetti and haven't really since I've been pregnant. I do LOVE chocolate milk and can't seem to get enough of it. I love to have it in the mornings with a bagel and cream cheese or a croissant. In my first trimester I loved to eat eggs in the morning. But, for the most part, I do not crave sweets as much as I did before I was prego.

Early on in the pregnancy is was salt. Then garlic. Now it is root beer!
