Q. I have read you can have pregnancy cravings at any point during a pregancny. For some ladies its as early as the first month, others it varies.
With my previous pregnancy- I craved spicy foods & corn dogs off and on..
With my current one, Im craving a ton of dairy products. Cheeses, Yogurts and Milk (of course). Not really into ice cream.

A. I'm 21 weeks along and throughout my pregnancy I've craved anything spicy (although now that the heartburn is starting to kick in I'm trying to nip this one in the butt), sour patch kids, fruit loops OMG fruit loops are awesome lol, those canned green beans with onions and red bell peppers in them and last but not least....turkey, lots of mustard and a ton of pickles sandwhiches. Hehe thats about all I eat all day....My honey is worried that the baby is going to turn out eating nothing but turkey sandwhiches and fruit loops.
How strong are the pregnancy cravings really?
Q. I may be pregnant. I have a doctor's appointment this week to confirm. But I am going crazy craving for sour stuff and a lot of chillies (hot sauces). And I guess I was wondering how strong are the pregnancy cravings really. Can you contain them. Like if you don't give in, do they go away? Or is it in my head?
A. They are very real and very crazy and very strong. Usually they are a bi-product of hormone changes. If you don't give in, then sometimes they go away, sometimes they change or sometimes they don't. You will laugh but with my first pregnancy one day I woke up and I thought I was going to die unless I had a girl scout cookie. The ones made with coconut. Anyway...I crawled across my floor to the phone, called the girl scout office which was 20 or so miles away and made them hold the last box for me while I drove there! Now thats crazy. I have had three kids and only got cravings once. But if you want it go and get it!
Ladies,how far along in your pregnancies did you go before you started the typical pregnancy cravings we have?
Q. I just got a positive test result last week, but I already desire nachos and cheese a lot more than I previously cared for. I think I am maybe 1 month, I haven't been to the doctor yet. Can this be pregnancy cravings this soon, or is it all in my head?
A. Yes you can have cravings this early. I didn't have any cravings with my first, They started about 4 months along with my second ( steak and watermelon ). But with this last one it was at about 6 weeks ( Subway ).
Is it possible to prevent pregnancy cravings?
Q. I have the oddest cravings that strike me at really annoying times. For example I woke up at 3am craving goat cheese souffles .... Not exactly something I just had on hand! Another odd one was my extreme craving for a breakfast quiche at 9pm as I was turning in for the night. Since I can rarely satisfy my pregnancy cravings is there a way to just prevent them??
A. Pregnancy cravings are there for a reason, it means your body needs something that's in the food you want. So in theory, the only way to avoid it is to make sure you're getting enough nutrients.
