Hiya!

I'm 38 weeks and apart from chocolate and cakes and strong flavors, I'd say nothing odd. Although having cheese and-tuna sandwich may be considered odd!!

Hi, congratulations on your pregnancy. With my first pregnancy, I would crave chilli, I would pour chilli sauce on cucumber and eat it! I couldnt do that now though!

I haven't had any craving as of yet but I read online they are most prominent between 10-12 weeks I'm sure my time will come but I feel like I'm missing out lol I have had the food aversions more than anything can't stand the smell of cooking food no matter it is. The only smell I can stomach is Chinese food which I have always loved but now it's the only meal I can enjoy hot as I'm eating the others cold/ luke warm due to the smell 🙈 I hope my baby doesn't come out with a love for hoisin sauce lol

I remember that mostly I didn't wanted to eat anything... Everything was just gross for me in these early weeks. But when I finally had some cravings, it was always something very particular. Like, I didn't wanted to eat anything but chicken stock, or chinese soup with happy cow cheese spread inside, or burger...
