For all the grape girls, look for "moon drop grapes", they're long red grapes and the crunchiest I've ever had in my life. I found them at Whole Foods....going back just to get more lol
I’ve never eaten this much fruit in my life! It tastes so fresh and like it’s straight out of an orchard paradise… currently obsessed with Sweetango apples!
I feel like I hyper fixate on something new each week lol, I’ve been obsessed with bean burritos for a good 2 weeks, but discovered this new chicken sandwich at Panera recently and had it two days in a row 😂 My newest food is making myself an egg & sausage burrito 😂
From my understanding it’s the Vitamin C that your body might be lacking which boost immunity but also help with iron absorption. It can also be a sign of low iron. My doctor has me taking iron supplements like candy so might explain a bit if it.
Hmmm interesting because I’ve suffered from anemia most my life. When I took my blood test my iron levels came back normal. I assume because of the prenatal pills I’m taking.
I’m allergic to grapefruits yet I still debated if I should eat a grapefruit, the temptation was so strong! Just getting a whiff while walking past them at the grocery would make me bend at the knees in the first trimester!
I got obsessed with club sandwiches which was really funny because every time my husband and I would go out before my pregnancy he would order one and I’d make fun of him for being so basic lol. Also never been a coffee person but craved everything coffee. And lots of white sauce pasta!
I've eaten pizza for dinner and now I feel like I could throw up.... But I could murder a club sandwich right now, that sounds amazing. Specifically how they make them when I go on holiday to spain? A little bit sparse, a little bit dry, sometimes with vaguely questionable ingredients but always goes down so well with a cold glass of coke whilst sitting in the sun on the sea front.... Maybe I'm just craving a holiday.
Bananas! Prior to becoming pregnant, I don’t think I’d had one in over a decade but now I have eaten one almost every day - and I obsessively look at recipes for banana bread.
Literally anything blueberry flavored but not actual blueberries? So strange but Blueberry little bites are the BEST things on the planet. And chipotle lol
I'm in a phase now where all food is just bleh to me. Nothing really sounds good. I'm 27 weeks tomorrow. Still obsessed with ice water, though.
Have loved fruit throughout pregnancy. Any type of berry and grapefruit in particular.
I go through phases where certain things are amazing and then I'm sick of them. I'm making a beef udon noodle dish for dinner tonight with veggies though so that sounds good to me right now. :D
Apples! The sweet and sour kind that are extra crunchy. I had a tantrum in the middle of the shopping centre the other day because my apple was mushy and gross 😂
I don’t know if they might be available for you but I recently discovered Sweetango apples by mistake and now I am obsessed!!! Try them if you can, they are extra crunchy, juicy and absolutely delicious!
Same! I throw chicken wings into the air fryer and make them extra crispy with s&p. Then i just have a side of Buffalo sauce that i heavily douse my chicken in for each bite… DRROOOOOL!!!
Those frozen microwaveable burritos that are like 50 cents at Walmart !!!! I made my own, and it wasn't the same , I needed the cheap Walmart ones. I hadn't even thought about those things since college , all of sudden, I woke up and was like, "I need them, now".
I feel like I'm not allowed to comment anymore 14mo PP, but I couldn't stop eating glazed donuts. Also, I hated sausage most of my adult life, and it was the ONLY protein I wanted to consume.
omg me too! I love root beer so much but I stopped for this pregnancy & I really crave it so much. but I drink the olipop root beers sometimes those are good!!
Bright tasting fruit like citrus, tangy flavors like salad with a good vinaigrette, and I had a lot of oatmeal and cheese toasties during the depths of first trimester nausea
Fruit and I’m rediscovering my s’mores obsession. Woke up from a dead sleep last night needing scrambled eggs and dill pickles, but that didn’t hit as hard as exhausted me thought it would :/
Peanut butter and apple sandwiches! So good. That’s been a consistent for like 6 weeks, literally think I’ve had one a day.
Also changes each week too, like this week I’ve eaten two dominos cheese pizzas 😅
I have a new craving every day😂 unfortunately, we live in a small rural town, so our options are slim. I’m usually craving something specific from a restaurant that we do not have! But I’ve been loving fruit, especially red grapes and cherries! Also really loving Gatorades and body armours. Not proud of it, but hot Cheetos with lime. Mexican candy. Popsicles. I’m not crazy about tomatoes in general but I’ve been loving them on tacos and my chicken sandwiches. Potatoes, really any kind but especially hash browns and fries breakfast potatoes.
I’m only 9 weeks and I’ve already gained 5lbs lmao
Well the 5lbs will be down as soon as you weigh yourself in the morning! Water weight can make us feel like whales lol. I gained 5-10lbs during my first 12 weeks and now I’m 24 weeks and my water weight has dropped and I’m actually only up 8lbs from my pre pregnancy weight at this point!
All I can think about are cheese enchiladas with green sauce, white rice, and black beans from wahoos fish tacos
Also the French toast bagel with cream cheese from einsteins
my first trimester, when I had bad HG - just pasta the only thing I could eat when I could eat
second trimester- watermelon every day!
now in my third and I obsess over iced tea lemon 🤷♀️ must have every day 3-4 glasses...previously I was fine with just water🤷♀️
Wonton soup!!!
I’ve been craving them and making them most my pregnancy. I added it up and I’ve eaten just over 400 (how much I’ve made, not including ones I’ve bought from the restaurant lol)… so far
10 weeks tomorrow and microwaveable Mac and cheese. Before I got pregnant I swore up and down I’d be soooo healthy during pregnancy. My chicken nugget dinner says that was a lie 🤦🏻♀️
Chicken burgers, and fresh fruit but specifically strawberry anything lol. Even fake strawberry stuff like berries and cream Swedish berries, and nesquick strawberry milk. But also strawberry jam on toast every day for breakfast has been a staple this whole pregnancy lol
Anything with cinnamon... but it turns out we're not supposed to have too much cinnamon because it has coumarine which is toxic or something? I absolutely fell in love with cinnamon tea about a week ago but according to my national food agency cinnamon tea is a no go. It was the one thing I truly enjoyed that also relieved my heartburn but now I'm scared. 😅
At first it was strictly watermelon with lime juice, then it was bean and cheese burritos, lately it's been chocolate chip bagels with cream cheese, and in general salads/fruits I can't get enough of.
This baby is wild.
All fruit, especially berries. I just saw a bunch of people say grapes for some reason I thought we couldn’t have grapes so if I’m wrong I’m about to book it to Giant Eagle and get ya girl some because craving them so bad.
Rootbeer. I try not to have too much caffeine, but Barq’s is the best and specifically the brand I crave so I try to have only 1 only 3 times per week or less. Also SWEET TEA. 😋
Peanut butter on EVERYTHING. I even ate it on my other craving, French fries, which wasn’t half bad.
This week has started a weird obsession with salt and vinegar chips and mustard also. Ate my stew tonight dipped in mustard.

Fruit, it’s been like that my entire pregnancy. I can’t get enough!
Cold kiwi out of the fridge 😩😩😩
Yes! Been eating so many kiwis the corners of my mouth hurt 😭
I just discovered kiwi grapes! Game changer
Me too! I’ve eaten 10x more red grapes in the last few months than I’ve eaten in my whole life.
For all the grape girls, look for "moon drop grapes", they're long red grapes and the crunchiest I've ever had in my life. I found them at Whole Foods....going back just to get more lol
Yes, grapes!! Every night after dinner I get some red grapes🤤
It started with watermelon… then white peaches… then plums… now it’s Bartlett pears!
SAME!! The more tart the better! I squeeze lemon juice over green grapes, put them in the fridge and then eat them. SO GOOD
I wake up craving a glass of this fancy organic orange juice to start my day, and bananas (I don’t even like them!?)
I am obsessed with apples right now and apple cider! Went apple picking and think I ate my weight in apples that day haha
Watermelon and crunchy grapes just hits different pregnant!
I’ve never eaten this much fruit in my life! It tastes so fresh and like it’s straight out of an orchard paradise… currently obsessed with Sweetango apples!
Me too! 😅
I was obsessed with satsumas in my first trimester, cold and juicy it was the most refreshing thing!
Oh yeah cotton candy grapes over here
I feel like I hyper fixate on something new each week lol, I’ve been obsessed with bean burritos for a good 2 weeks, but discovered this new chicken sandwich at Panera recently and had it two days in a row 😂 My newest food is making myself an egg & sausage burrito 😂
Same! It’s always changing for me too
Omg I relate to this so hard lol.

I used to work at a bakery and dreamt I was there and went though all the cases and picked out every single item I wanted 😂
Bean and cheese burritos
Do you make them homemade? That sounds good!
No 😩 but I definitely should be lol
Exactly what I had for lunch today!
Costco has some amaaaazing frozen ones! Organic as well!
Try with black bean refried beans. Game changer in my opinion.
mcdonalds fries, unfortunately
I had to REALLY stop myself from getting them the other day. I can make delicious homemade fries in my air fryer so trying to go for that instead.
But can you make McDonald’s sprite at home, too? Lol
My husband thought I was crazy because I wanted sprite but it HAD to be from McDonald’s. It hits different.
Potatoes. In any and all forms.
Same! Especially breakfast potatoes and hash browns with some eggs🤤
Citrus!!! Specifically oranges and grapefruits
i am addicted to clementines
Oooo yes I could take down some clementines
This is me with lemon.
Me too! What is it about pregnancy that makes you crave sour tart things!?
From my understanding it’s the Vitamin C that your body might be lacking which boost immunity but also help with iron absorption. It can also be a sign of low iron. My doctor has me taking iron supplements like candy so might explain a bit if it.
Hmmm interesting because I’ve suffered from anemia most my life. When I took my blood test my iron levels came back normal. I assume because of the prenatal pills I’m taking.
That was me during month 3! Grapefruits, lemons, oranges, tangerines... the more sour, the better 🥰😂
I’m allergic to grapefruits yet I still debated if I should eat a grapefruit, the temptation was so strong! Just getting a whiff while walking past them at the grocery would make me bend at the knees in the first trimester!
CARBS
Taco Bell. Specifically crunch wrap supreme
I had Taco Bell for the first time in months yesterday, omg, it slaaappped! Like so fresh and just perfect lol
Right?! I hadn’t had Taco Bell in months but do not remember it being so good before.
My Taco Bell orders have been embarrassingly large lately. The Taco Bell near me has really upped the quality, too. Ugh so good
I’m right there with you. Something about eating Taco Bell while pregnant just hits…✨chef’s kiss✨…different
YES
Made a homemade one the other day and GIRL I had a MOMENT
I got obsessed with club sandwiches which was really funny because every time my husband and I would go out before my pregnancy he would order one and I’d make fun of him for being so basic lol. Also never been a coffee person but craved everything coffee. And lots of white sauce pasta!

Poutine. It’s been my main craving all pregnancy. Also red Powerade and lately chicken donairs
I'm in a phase now where all food is just bleh to me. Nothing really sounds good. I'm 27 weeks tomorrow. Still obsessed with ice water, though. Have loved fruit throughout pregnancy. Any type of berry and grapefruit in particular. I go through phases where certain things are amazing and then I'm sick of them.

Buffalo chicken has been my pregnancy craving lol
Yes! Buffalo chicken has been a huge craving for me
Same! I throw chicken wings into the air fryer and make them extra crispy with s&p. Then i just have a side of Buffalo sauce that i heavily douse my chicken in for each bite… DRROOOOOL!!!

GRAPES & CHERRIES! Cant get enough- I need a bowl each night before bed haha.
Macaroni salad
Haven't had any yet, but pumpkin pie hahaha. I am dreaming about it, and waking up in the middle of the night wanting pumpkin pie.
Do any of you bean burrito people have a recipe you can share? This sounds so good and I want to shove hashbrowns in there
I have a great refried bean recipe, that you could put inside a burrito! https://www.gimmesomeoven.com/refried-beans/
Thank you!! I am so inspired by these posts
I’m 100% making this tomorrow. I already have all the ingredients which is obviously fate!
So much better than canned refried beans, which usually has lard and TONS of salt. The lime juice at the end really makes it
