With the first one it was grapes, chocolate digestives and egg sandwiches. The second one it was McLeans toothpaste - tube a day. She has the most beautiful teeth now.

With the 1st, I couldn´t stand the smell of tea or potatoes.
Haven´t drunk tea since unless I have to for the sake of politeness.
No problems with the second one way or the other.

Crab or prawns,,,,,,,I chucked them down my neck knowing full well they would chuck themselves back up again within an hour or so..

apart from that I couldnt eat hardly any foods they just returned throughout the day and night,was not a good time.

I didn't crave anything, but went off a lot of my favourite foods , Roast lamb was the first , I struggle to eat it even now and then Beef,tho I enjoy a lovely Fillet steak now.

I don't drink and not fussed the smell but when I was pregnant with both of mine the smell of it used to make me wretch.

I craved whiskey and coke! Neither which I normally like.

Luckily I was able to resist the craving most of the time.

Funny, pickles seem to have come up a lot. When I was pregnant with my daughter it was red cabbage and when expecting my son it was pickled cucumbers. :-D

Pickled onions, I used to get up in the night to eat them, I didn't like them before I was pregnant, but I do now, and still crave them sometimes.
