I may be pregnant. I have a doctor’s appointment this week to confirm. But I am going crazy craving for sour stuff and a lot of chillies (hot sauces). And I guess I was wondering how strong are the pregnancy cravings really. Can you contain them. Like if you don’t give in, do they go away? Or is it in my head?
Sometimes, not often, but sometimes I would get cravings for certain things like pizza hut’s buffalo wings or pickles (like a whole jar) and I would give into them or I wouldn’t stop thinking about them. I wouldn’t go crazy over them, but everytime after I got the craving and I hadn’t eaten it, that’s all I would want to eat. : )
They are very real and very crazy and very strong. Usually they are a bi-product of hormone changes. If you don’t give in, then sometimes they go away, sometimes they change or sometimes they don’t. You will laugh but with my first pregnancy one day I woke up and I thought I was going to die unless I had a girl scout cookie. The ones made with coconut. Anyway…I crawled across my floor to the phone, called the girl scout office which was 20 or so miles away and made them hold the last box for me while I drove there! Now thats crazy. I have had three kids and only got cravings once. But if you want it go and get it!
It is all depends. I had no cravings, but just the idea of certain foods made me sick.I was not able to drink cafe (I am a huge cafe drinker), I could not take the smell of onion. Good luck!
You have cravings whether you are pregnant or not.
Being pregnant can give you a more metallic taste so you can crave different things.
You are more hormonal so give in more easily – it isn’t really that the cravings are stronger
