What Did You Crave?

Yesterday I was watching a show about a lady having twins. Crazy...right? Ha! Well she told the doctor about her weird cravings-CHALK! Chalk as in what kids play with. The doctor said it wouldn't hurt her but he has heard pregnant women crave all things: chalk, dirt, and baking soda. To watch this lady take out a stick of chalk and eat it was disgusting... What did you crave while pregnant? Chalk perhaps?

    Although I haven't had a baby... Chris' mom craved vanilla ice cream with blue cheese crumbles.. needless to say he LOVES vanilla ice cream.. but hates blue cheese.

  10. I think I might have just puked in my mouth, well not really, but that is absolutely disgusting! I hope when I am pregnant one day that I at least crave something really good!

  12. With my son, I craved nothing, but I thought I needed to eat for two:(

    With my daughter, I craved Chinese food and orange juice. Prior to getting pregnant, you wouldn't catch me eating Chinese or drinking orange juice. I still love Chinese, but don't care for orange juice.
