What if all my baby is craving is cookies and sweets? and I'm only two months pregnant?


Everytime I'm hungry I get feeling sick but when I think of anything healthy I could munch on, none of it sounds appealing, but when I see a box of chips a hoy cookies, that sounds spectacular? I obviously can't live on this diet for the next nine months. Anybody have any suggestions?

Agreed, your body is really telling you that you need energy, AKA protein. My midwife tells me craving sweets may be a sign of anemia, so if you have any other symptoms of anemia, ask your doctor to check your blood so you can start taking iron supplements if needed.

When your body is craving sweets you actually need protein. Your blood sugar level will even out after eating protein regularly for a while, and the sweets cravings will go away.
