Pregnancy cravings

Pregnancy cravingsHelen is 25 weeks pregnant and experiencing some intense pregnancy cravings.

“I’ve had a pretty normal pregnancy so far and I’ve been trying to eat as healthy as possible so that I don’t gain too much weight but for the last few weeks I’ve been having these massive cravings for cream cheese.  It has to be a particular brand (Philadelphia) and usually I have it in a sandwich but sometimes it gets so bad I’m embarrassed to admit I just eat it straight out of the tub with a spoon.  I can get through an entire packet in one sitting! I know it sounds disgusting but it tastes so good I don’t seem to be able to help myself.  The weird thing is that normally I don’t even like cream cheese!  Does this mean I have a nutritional deficiency?  A friend of mine was telling me she knows someone who ate dirt while they were pregnant but I’m sure that can’t be true! I’d love to hear if anyone else has experienced weird pregnancy cravings and whether they gave in to them. More importantly is there anything I can do to overcome them before I turn into a whale?”
