Pickles and Ice Cream

When my co-workers organized a baby shower for me, someone signed up to bring pickles and ice cream for the pot-luck lunch. Obviously, they were having fun with the fact that many women experience unusual food cravings when pregnant. I however, have not. In the first trimester, I did eat a lot of salty things, because I was often nauseated, and salt seemed to help with that. But when I passed through the sickness phase, I dropped the salt shaker and reunited with my sweet tooth. Occasionally I do crave something, like cinnamon rolls, or cupcakes, or chocolate chip cookies, (do we see a pattern here?) but as soon as my craving is satisfied, it passes. So there isn't anything that I have consistently craved throughout my pregnancy, and certainly nothing strange or unusual, like pickles and ice cream.

That's good to hear! at 16 weeks I haven't craved anything constantly...sometimes I would think about things...but I was a little worried. Good to know I'm not the only one.
