So I haven’t had any of the exciting/unusual cravings that other pregnant women seem to get.  No pickles and ice cream or anything like that.  One of my friends really craved creamed spinach and ate it twice a day. For months. 

The only thing that I seem to crave is meat of all kinds and sparkling water. Beef, chicken, fish, bacon, Italian sausage – it all sounds good. As far as the sparkling water, I think it might have something to do with my time in Germany and
Italy earlier in pregnancy, where sparkling water is everywhere.  The sparkling water I can get here isn’t quite as good as in
Germany, but it satisfies the cravings.
