Cravings for Boys vs. Girls

So with my first pregnancy, I had a boy, and all I craved was salt, doritos, tomato soup, orange juice by the gallon, pickles and black olives.

This time around, not craving the salt so much, but more sweets, in particular, Entenmann's chocolate donuts and Starburst candy Chat Icon

I keep thinking - there's got to be at least one girl in there (I am thinking it's a boy and girl but we will see).

For fun, what are your cravings with a boy vs girl? Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Cravings for Boys vs. Girls

With my DD all I wanted to eat was cheese!!...........constantly!! I ate cheese morning, noon, and night throughout my whole pregnancy. I couldn't get enough.

With this pregnancy (just found out it's a Chat Icon ) all I have wanted is junk food. Constantly. Devil dogs, pizza, Doritos, candy.........cr@p, cr@p, and more cr@p. Sooooo different from when I was pregnant with my DD. Chat Icon

Re: Cravings for Boys vs. Girls

With DD all I ate was candy, cookies and cake. The amount of sugar I consumed was gross

Now I'm pg with DS and my cravings have been mostly salty and savory.

Weird how it worked out.

Re: Cravings for Boys vs. Girls

I was team green with DD and I had NO sweet cravings. Seriously. To the point where when I was diagnosed with GD I was like eh, well, not like I really have been eating sugar anyway.

I was a damn cheese whore. All I wanted was cheese. Pepperjack, specifically.

OMG!!! I'm so doing this!
With my DD-I was eating Snickers bars at 7 am before I knew I was pregnant. I ate a lot of watermelon, cake, ice cream.
With DS, I craved BACON. Lots of it!
This time around, I started out craving BBQ pulled chicken and now just writing it out makes me wanna vomit. I've moved onto carbs and sweet stuff. I'm going to be team green for this one Chat Icon

Re: Cravings for Boys vs. Girls

with my first pregnancy (ended in a mc but it was a girl) all i wanted was veggies and hummus. all healthy stuff, no sweets.

this pregnancy, im having a girl and a boy and i'm leaning towards more salty stuff but i dont really have specific cravings. i mean, i dont think the cravings mean anything but its fun to speculate!

Cravings for Boys vs. Girls

I've craved things I don't usually crave- for awhile it was taco bell, then I wanted spinach pie and french fries. SO I guess more so salty and spicy.
Normally I'm a big sweet eater, but I never really had cravings for sweets this pregnancy.
I'm having a boy.

Re: Cravings for Boys vs. Girls

I don't think it's true. I normally prefer sweets but when pregnant with my twin girls all I craved was fruit and savory stuff. That's usually what they say are boy cravings.

With My DS I craved anything with Vinegar and I put cheese on everything ... This time I crave fruit juices or lemonade a lot, I want cupcakes for breakfast (even though I dont eat them all the time) you would think I'm having a girl but they said Chat Icon lol so I really dont believe the craving myths Chat Icon
