Cravings

One of the most common questions I have been asked while pregnant is, "Have you had any cravings?" I heard that some pregnant women have crazy cravings at odd hours of the night for bizarre things like banana and peanut butter sandwiches. Honestly, I don't think my cravings have been any different than usual. I get really hungry every few hours and if I don't get food in my system I become fatigued and grumpy. I always have cravings for sweets (pregnant or not).

But then the other day I realized what my 'craving' has been. Watermelon. It always sounds good. It is cold, refreshing, and delicious. Maybe it is because we live in this crazy hot desert and something cool and refreshing always sounds good. Or maybe it is because I am pregnant. For now, I'm declaring it my pregnancy craving.

Haha! You ARE in a hot desert. Plus you just get HOT at the end of pregnancy anyways. My 8-9 months craving was always cold, lemon or lime treats...for the same reasons. Cold and refreshing!
