First major craving...
amynicole21 wrote: I went to the grocery store for my lunch break because I have been craving things I just can't get at normal stores! I bought a huge bottle of grapefruit juice  I never drink grapefruit juice! I also want salt salt salt. I really wanted a big can of salted almonds which I would have eaten in one sitting, but I couldn't find them. I got cashews instead.  And tuna! I only want tuna salad when I'm pregnant. So bizarre. I didn't get any of that, though... don't trust it unless I make it myself 
I really didn't have this many cravings with Sophia. My theory was always that you crave the nutrients your body is lacking, so I guess I'm not getting enough protein, vitamin c and sodium  Maybe that theory isn't so sound. 
Kaitlin'smom replied: I just hope you dont eat all that in one sitting....ewwwww LOL
what an interesting theory cause the only thing I really craved was milk, and I know I was getting enougth calcium
coasterqueen replied: OMG! I'm there with you...I only craved sweets and pasta with Kylie (but I normally like those things just as much when not pg). This time I'm craving things that I just can't understand. There's a restaurant in town that I HATE and I have been craving it so bad my mouth is watering. Ick! ROFL.
This morning it was banana nut bread so I had to stop and get some.
My biggest craving is EGGS!!!! I have to have an egg sandwich every day it seems! Course Dh is out of town, so I have to wait til he gets back to have one. Sniff sniff. Yes, I hate to even cook an egg. ROFL.
I WISH I would crave things I hate normally though, lol, like veggies, salad, etc. 
EDIT: What I did crave during pg with Kylie and craving it with this one is alcohol. I don't get it but when I'm pg I want alcohol so bad. WEIRD...course not giving in to that craving. ROFL.
Also I'm craving macaroni and cheese and tuna SO BAD I'd give my left arm for some and the same for hotdogs! I didn't have this during first pg. But I thought we weren't supposed to have tuna????
Kirstenmumof3 replied:  Oh Amy you are too funny! I remember when I was pregnant with the girls I craved TUNA like crazy! I ate a tuna sandwich for lunch, supper and then an evening snack!
kimberley replied: LOL you girls are making me nauseous!  something about grapefruit juice, nuts and tuna all at once doesn't sound appealing lolol.
and Karen, you are having a boy!!! all i ate while preggo with the boys was eggs! breakfast, lunch and dinner... some kind of eggs!
i understood fish was a no-no during pg too because of mercury and bacteria. 
DansMom replied: I still like canned peaches after craving them while I was pregnant. Grapefruit juice makes sense---kind of in the pickle category, an intense, highly acidic flavor. Yumm!!!
MommyToAshley replied: LOL! I love stories about cravings, it's so funny how our body and mind works! 
I craved anything with tomatoes when I was PG with Ashley... tomatoes, tomato soup, spaghetti  So bizarre!
amynicole21 replied:
Mmmmmm, pickles!
With Sophia it was mandarin orange fruit cups... ate them daily!
chloe&tysmommy replied: OMG!!! I didn't even know you were preggo....CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! How exciting!!!
I have been MIA for a couple weeks now (renovating the house) so I'm slowly trying to catch up on the board.
So Congrats to you again
amynicole21 replied:
Thanks! I'm pretty excited about it
Guest replied:
 That would be great for DH's sake. It's funny because when I was pg with Kylie everyone and I mean everyone was definite she was going to be a girl and she was. This time I have people telling me it's a boy and some a girl because of my symptoms. I can't wait to find out myself.
coasterqueen replied: oops that last one was from me .
kit_kats_mom replied: LOL! I drank a ton of grapefruit juice when I was pregnant with K. Sounds kinda good now that you mention it.
I had a serious chinese food craving today (sodium shortage in my body? LOL).
jolene555 replied: i was crazy about tuna when i was pregnant, but i was told definaly no more than 3 servings of tuna in a week, and absulutely no albacore. it has too much mercury. just thought i would mention it in case somebody out there hasn't heard that yet.
Maddie&EthansMom replied: I craved orange juice with Ethan. Anything citrus. I craved sweets with Maddie. I never ate sweets until I was pg with her.
Littlejojames replied: Having very odd cravings that i cant seem to pin down to one thing at the minute. I do know that as soon as i eat i feel the need to get it back up 
It has to get better than this 
Guest_boogabearzmom replied:
It does get better . I'm starting to feel a bit more of myself now and I'm almost 12 weeks....so hopefully you will see some relief soon. 
mama3x replied: Can you imagine if a scientist tried to research craving in pg women?! I don't think he'd ever reach a sure conclusion!
With DS: I craved coca-cola and cherry vanilla ice cream with the occasional banana split or sundae.
With DD: MEAT! I craved red meat and chicken mostly as well as potatoes.
With this DS: I crave milk, ice cream, bananas, and orange juice. Not together tho lol! (well, maybe just the bananas and ice cream).
I also had that thing where I would crave something, eat it, then feel really ill afterwards. Thankfully it went away!
Josie83 replied: I agree cravings are so interesting! Mine changed all the times, a lot of the time it was crisps (which i eat a lot of anyway) and orange juice. It was hilarious tho, because if i told Jason the baby was craving something he would bezz it out and get it . . . fogive me for takign advantage but a few mysterious cravings for choc etx would pop up from time to time!!  xx
jolene555 replied: i have a pg friend, so i thought i would share her craving. watch out - this one is nasty . . .
mcdonalds french fries
with
hot mustard
WITH
HERSHEY'S CHOCOLATE SYRUP
note: that's all 3 things TOGETHER. ick. makes me cringe thinking about it. she loves it. would eat it 3x a day if she could.
Josie83 replied: Jolene . . . yuck!!!!! xx
mrshires replied: Ok, that is gross. When I get McDonald's french fries, I eat it with Hot Mustard. OR, Wendy's chicken nuggets dipped in Frosty. But together, eeeeww.
I'm definitely in the tomato bunch. And cheese, cheese, cheese. All I can get my hands on.

A&A'smommy replied: I ate so many eggs while I was pg with Alyssa, TONS of them and I ate tuna but no one told me I wasn't suppose to have them 
OMG Jolene that is SOOO gross
