With DD I was craving fresh squeezed orange juice and cake. This time around I don't really have any cravings I am eating almost (except meat, fish & eggs) everything but given the choice between sweet and savory it would be savory all the way, where as last time it was definately sweet.
No cravings for me other than quantity! Having done the LE diet so strictly back in the autumn I've been overeating a bit since my BFP. Keep telling myself that I'm building a baby so I need to eat! Better stop the gluttony soon or I'll put on loads this time round!
uggg i want to eat soo much but my belly won't let me it's like i'm already in 3rd tri aggg. i still eat plenty but not as much as i want lol
Expecting twins, I have to eat a LOT of protein- at least 100 grams a day! Let me tell you, that's a lot! But it's so important that I get in that protein, tons of water (and I successfully drink a minimum of eight 16 oz glasses each and every day), and that I hit certain weight targets (25lbs at 20 weeks- I was 1 lb under this, so not bad!-, 38 lbs at 28 weeks, and so on). I'm shooting for a minimum of 40-45 lbs gained overall, however I believe I'll easily hit that. The heavier these babies are, the more likely they won't be born premature and the healthier they'll be.
So, having said that, I am NOT craving red meat! lol Stuffing my face with eggs, meat, cheese, kefir, etc all day means that I stay pretty full and almost never get very hungry. But I have had a hankering for honey wheat pretzel rods and, at night, a few Oreos. But that's about it, really.
around the world sounds like you are taking great care of yourself and babes as protein intake is supposed to help prevent a lot of things:)
cottage cheese is super high in protein as well as keifer(i don't eat meat:)
I got a big ol tub from costco lol I like to mix it w/ salsa and eat w/ tortilla chips lol but i don't know anyone else that does that might give it a try:)
also like w/ just honey or fruit:)
i really need to up my water intake but it makes me so full and then i can't eat what I want waaa lol. loving avocados and sourdough bread and oranges although no cravings for anything-
I've been craving Indian food, especially curry! I would eat it for every meal if I could. I even dream about it lol
Om gosh 5 boys, I was just coming on here to update that I can't get enough hot/spicy food. I'm craving indian and chilli like crazy. Can't get enough! Might be tmi but I'm finding if I do eat spicy food my urine gets concentrated and burns me so I'm having to drink lots of water when I do indulge to help dilute things.
This weeks craving is lemon cake.....about to go make myself one now lol
My craving lately has been chocolate dipped donuts. I make DH go out at night to get one lol each night the last week! I've been doing so well eating healthy, deserts and sweets have actually been a huge turn off till all of a sudden I want chocolate dipped donuts lol!!!
I craved Root Beer like a crazy woman for a few weeks, now I can't stomach it and all I want is salad and/or veggies I also really crave boiled eggs. For snacks, any type of candy! I cannot stomach any kind of meat!
