What did you crave/loathe?

[madham]

Did anyone/partner get any odd cravings when they were pregnant. I myself used to eat bars and bars of orange flavoured chocolate, matchmakers being a favourite and also chocolate oranges, mmm. But in the same respect the smell of my favourite crsips cheese and onion made me chuck.

Well I'm not pregnant and don't have any kids but my friend had really mad cravings for smelling mud and dust!

Cheese and Onion pies from the Chip Shop...and bags and bags and bags of Haribo Sour fizzy sweets...I don't normally eat sweets or pies! And I went off bananas for two years. Oh, and I craved a good night out, fitting into my flares and a good bottle of red wine constantly ; )

I was sick all day everyday both times, and although I survived on apple juice I constantly craved a roast dinner. My hubbie is not a cook, so one night I got into my head that I would have one of those awful frozen complete roast dinners. Sent hubbie off to the supermarket and he bought one and warmed it up for me. Needless to say after 2 bites I was sick. I still feel nauseous when I see them in the freezer in Sainsburys.

I haven't been through this experience yet, bu my mum had cravings for Kellogs Bran Flakes! And she also said she couldn't stand the taste or smell of chicken and that it tasted like soap!

With our youngest (wasn't there for the first two) my wife was mad for Polos, she was up to six or seven tubes a day by the time of the birth. I remember driving round the city a 2.00 a.m. trying to find an all-night garage - no 24 hr. Tescos then - that sold Polos. I bought seven packets, the guy must have thought I was weird.

chocolate cake. And it had to be the kind with the chocolate coating on the outside with layers of chocolate running all the way through. And I don't eat chocolate!

Mint sauce on everything, especially cheese and tomato sandwiches!

[madham]

Anniekon OO Mint sauce, can't think of anything worse!

I used to eat tons of apples (me I hardly ever eat any fruit) and would always go to the local pizza shop 'cos I thought they had the BEST ice. Awful pizza though. I also developed a passion for garlic. My poor husband probanly had nightmares about my constsnt garlic breath!
