You're not crazy!


Actually last night around this time I was hungry for a big meal from Perkins!

I settled for a bowl of Frosted Mini Wheats instead

I want to go and make a sandwich...like a BLT or something..but cereal is a good idea, probably better for me anyways!

Oh my gosh, I know what you mean!! Usually hits me around midnight. I usually just have a bagel or some cereal, though.

Right now I just want a nice home-cooked meal.
Or something from Hometown Buffet
I haven't been there in almost a year! ....

Hehe, just say, really shyly with your hand on your stomach, "John, I'm having a craving...will you go get us some milk?"
See how he responds and you'll know what to expect when you're pregnant!

I'd try - but he's sleeping before he leaves for work in an hour

Dontcha just hate it when that happens?! Usually I sit there in self-pity for 15 minutes afterwards
then just can't take it anymore & end up walking or jogging my dog around the block.....Then come straight back to sitting in front of the computer for a couple of hours on TCS

If I stay up past midnight or so I get hungry for something random and big.

So I just go to sleep before than (11:30pm or so) and wake up for breakfast in the am early.

My savoury cravings tend not to get a chance to kick in late at night, because it's unusual for us to eat dinner before 8 pm -- 9 is more usual. But occasionally when we need to be out of an evening, and there isn't an opportunity to stick some nourishment in my face earlier, we'll get home 10- or 11- ish, and the first thing I do is hit the kitchen and put together a BLT -- maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan that's good late at night -- especially for a dinner-deprived body!

Suprisingly I don't crave anything after dinner. I tend not to eat anything after dinner now that I am pregnant - I used to. Unfortunately anything I eat in the evening now days turns straight to heartburn.

You all have me craving a BLT now! I usually want salty stuff. I guess I crave salty more than I do sweet stuff (other than chocolate) Is that normal? Man I could really go for some McDonalds fries now!!

Whoops!! I am sorry about the transfer craving.... maybe I am just having sympathy cravings for you and the other pregnant lady in my office. I am going to get a big bag of potato chips at lunch. McDonalds will be way to crowded!!

Funniest thing, I had to wake up at 4 am this morning to study, and I woke up with a huge craving for chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes. The kind they have at this fantastic little restaraunt here in town called The Farmhouse. Ugh, I'm drooling now. Who in the world wants chick fried steak in the morning, lol.
