major CRAVINGS and AVERSIONS during pregnancy 🤤🤮

during pregnancy i never thought i was experiencing cravings.. until i was in my second trimester crying because i found the biggest bag of “oops all berries in” cereal i have ever seen.

cravings:

• 7brew: the first few weeks, i wanted it daily. like… multiple times a day. then suddenly, total 180 i couldn’t even look at it. (1st trimester ish)

• cereal: the most stereotypical craving ever, but i wanted all of them. mixed together. every. single. kind. (whole pregnancy)

• unexpected cheddar cheese from trader joe’s: drove 2.5 hours just to stock up (mainly 1st trimester, no regrets).

• yoohoos: could’ve easily drank my body weight in them daily (1st & 2nd trimester).

• uncrustables + chips stuffed inside: my go-to dinner at work — devoured, no crumbs left (whole pregnancy).

• pickles + cream cheese + takis: but ONLY with Grillo’s pickles. non-negotiable. (2nd & 3rd trimester).

• ramen noodles + Grillo’s pickles: weirdly elite combo that lasted about 2–3 weeks, then vanished forever.

• anything sweet: Nothing Bundt Cakes, Crumbl, Publix cupcakes… didn’t matter, i was obsessed (3rd trimester)

aversions:

• 7brew (again): i went from needing it every day to getting nauseous at the thought of it. had to drive different routes just so i wouldn’t see it. if someone mentioned it, i’d instantly gag. could drink any other coffee though. pregnancy logic 🤷‍♀️

• Zaxby’s: one bad experience (that i will not relive) and i still haven’t eaten it since… we’re talking over a year and a half later.

• opening my refrigerator: it could be completely empty, but i swore something was rotting inside. the smell (that didn’t exist) haunted me for weeks.

pregnancy is SO weird, pregnancy cravings/aversions are even weirder. what are some cravings and aversions you have had/are having?
