Just wondering what everyone else is craving? For me it's peanut butter and fruit. Not necessarily together.
Also, what is totally turning your stomach? I think I may have another few days of drinking coffee and then it'll be a no no. Already sort of icky today.

I used to drink those flavored water packets, the kind that has caffeine in them. I replaced soft drinks with those and would drink at least 2-3 a day. I can no longer drink them. The taste just isn't the same.
Other than that, it's been a toss up. One day something will sound sooo good, and the next day the thought of that same thing makes me nauseous. I have had a slight craving for apples though.
ETA- with my daughter, I couldn't eat peanut butter. It took me a long time to be able to eat it again (and Im a peanut butter lover!)

I am craving everything except vegetables. Vegetables make me want to barf.
And I wonder why I gained 40 lbs last time.

Salsa, asparagus, and brussel sprouts. So far vegetables just sound so good to me.
Last time I had an aversion to garlic and onions. It was a pain in the ass because we use them both a ton to cook. I got skeaved out by raw onions this week, but so far cooked have still been fine.

Ice cream! Seriously sometimes the only thing I can stomach is a Klondike bar. At least there’s calcium right? And I wonder why my A1c was elevated the last three months...
I had a big salad kick at the beginning. It was actually one that prompted my testing.😜
I have not been a big fan of meat. And I CANNOT take pills with regular water. Water has actually made me vomit. I need carbonation.

Craving mostly carbs of some kind like bread with butter but not toast. Chips, popcorn, fries, and pickles are good too. Oh and V8. Apparently I'm craving salt in a big way.
I don't like coffee which is just as heartbreaking as it was with my first. And sugary things in general are gross. Randomly meat is gross. Depends on the day.

Water. It’s so sad. I normally am constantly drinking water. These days I choke down a little while gagging.

I had a piece of bread earlier today that had a massive layer of peanut butter on it lol. Toast is just no beuno right now |

I don’t know if I was just living under a rock, but I was shocked to discover that water gives you heartburn? Last pregnancy, I’d wake up with heartburn so I’d go and chug water and wonder why it didn’t help. My stomach acid was having a field day! Realized after a few days that it was making it worse. The things you learn... |

Last week I was craving meat, but that's gone. Sugar never works out well for me first tri, but my craving for it thrid tri more than makes up for it!
Every time I'm pregnant I crave foods I haven't eaten in a while, and then I am averse to eating that food I just ate for quite a while.
I guess my babies like variety

I think it's a bit early for cravings over here but I did have a big bowl of popcorn last night and felt sick afterwards. i could seriously survive off of popcorn so that was weird. I avoided it all last pregnancy because of the puking though to it makes sense. No more popcorn for me!

I totally struggled with heartburn this pregnancy and last time, and I drink sooo much water, especially at night. This new info could be a game changer! Do you avoid water at night? Combine with a snack? Help me. |

I drank milk sometimes which helped in the moment. |

Bland carbs (bagels, cereal, etc) are the only thing that doesn't make me want to puke right now. So basically I'm going to gain 50 pounds again this pregnancy, I'm sure of it. I'm choking down water too. And I'm usually a 80+ oz a day kind of girl  |

Cravings vary day to day right now. If it's anything like last time, I'll be eating tons of ice cream.
Iced coffee is something I can't drink right now and anything breakfast foods are questionable.

No cravings but I’m starting to struggle with water. It’s basically all I drink so switching to carbonated drinks will “out” me same as last pregnancy.
I’m also adverse to my fridge. DH and I cleaned it in case there was some lingering smell but it didn’t help. My stomach flip flops every time I open it.

I'm loving my daily english muffin with butter.
The thing that turns my stomach the most is hamburger. Or really any meat so far that isn't chicken.

I just had some milk to drink before bed and if it woke me, I’d have some cold milk and it would stop it really quickly. |

I was making soup for dinner tonight and drank the rest of the chicken stock that I wasn't using. It was so damn good.
I need to start drinking a glass of milk before bed again. I did it last pregnancy and it helped battle some nausea since the casein in it takes longer to break down (bro science from my body building husband).

Mostly I just have food aversions, which change from hour to hour. No consistent cravings yet this pregnancy. I remember being nauseous until close to 20 weeks with DD, I'm just hoping it doesn't last as long this time around.

I am still avoiding salmon from my first pregnancy.
I was nauseous AF last time and survived off ramen noodles b/c anything else made me want to hurl. Haven’t been nauseous yet, fingers crossed.

At around 7 weeks I had a huge craving for noodles, then a week later just the thought made me sick! Weird. |
