IT or ICK while Pregnant! Part 1

My pregnancy cravings and what I ranked them out of 10!!! Part 1 of my cravings and aversions while pregnant!!!

1. Graeter’s strawberry milkshake- best craving in my life! 10000000000/10

2. Reese’s pieces- literally had the worst heartburn ever and the only thing that help was this!!! 100/10

3. Strawberry frosting- to be honest always hated frosting growing up, but I was notttt fighting little man on it!😂10/10

4. Breakfast food- always tasted raw to me! I physically could NOT eat it! Even the smell made me nauseous! 🤢 0/10

5. Yogurt of any kind- I could eat it, but would throw it right back up like 10 minutes later and we all know dairy is not yummy coming up!!!!😭😷 2/10

6. Any kind of chicken- this one also always tasted raw! Smell wasn’t bad. But raw tasting chicken ain’t it, so physically could not eat this and the texture was 🤮🤢 -5/10

what was some of your it’s and picks when pregnant?!?!?

... Read morePregnancy cravings can vary widely from one expectant mother to another. Many mothers report wanting sweet treats, while some experience strong aversions to certain foods like meat or dairy. For instance, individuals may have an insatiable craving for fruits or chocolate, while others might struggle with something as simple as breakfast foods. This variation often stems from hormonal changes that influence taste and smell during pregnancy. Cravings for specific foods such as ice cream or pickles are common, and some women even indulge in strange combinations! It's essential to listen to your body and enjoy these cravings in moderation. In addition to cravings, pregnancy can also lead to some intense aversions. As evidenced in my own experience, foods such as chicken or yogurts can take on completely different tastes due to pregnancy. Women may feel nauseous just at the thought of certain items; substances they previously loved can suddenly appear unpalatable. Understanding these triggers helps women navigate their dietary needs and preferences while pregnant. Engaging in conversations with other expectant mothers can be incredibly helpful. It allows for sharing experiences and helps normalize the ups and downs of cravings and aversions during pregnancy. Encourage one another to embrace these unusual tastes, and never hesitate to explore new options that may satisfy cravings, while ensuring that nutritional needs are met for the baby's growth. So what were your cravings or aversions? Share your stories and join the conversation!
