It's different for everyone, some crave sweets while others want spicy things. I used to love simple ghar ka khana and plain dahi. Just eat what makes you happy but keep it healthy.
Eating pure, simple food with a happy mind is so important during this beautiful journey. Whatever you crave, try to have it fresh and say a small prayer of gratitude. God bless you and your little one, stay positive.
Honestly, I am currently in my 5th month and all I want is spicy street momos and cold coffee! Is anyone else also craving super spicy food like this daily? I hope it is safe for the baby, I try not to overeat.
My gynac told me that cravings are super normal due to hormonal shifts and sometimes iron deficiencies. She said as long as I'm not craving non-food items like chalk or mud (which is pica), eating small portions of what I like is totally fine. I used to crave sour pickles a lot but kept the salt intake in check as advised.
Arre, my cravings changed every week! Sometime it was spicy golgappas, next day I wanted double chocolate ice cream. I literally made my husband run to the sweet shop at 11 PM so many times, it was so much fun!
I am in my 20th week now and suddenly craving sweet things like rasgulla and chocolate at midnight! I feel so anxious thinking if this will affect my baby or cause gestational diabetes. Did anyone else face this sudden change in cravings in their second trimester?
