I know it sounds rediculous, but im craving a burger from burger king, and its 9:30, and i want it really bad, but its so late, and i cant lay down bc i feel like i need to go get it. I should have gotten it at 3 this afternoon but i put it off and figured i would forget about it! I dont need to eat it this late. This sounds crazy!
I know this sounds pathetic, but i feel like im going to cry about it!

Pregnancy hormones can do weird things to your body and mind. LOL
Go get the burger, you’ll fall asleep faster once you’ve had it.
Well, my sister-in-law craved ice cream her last trimester of her 3rd pregnancy and gained 10 lbs. in a week due to it. That caused her some anxiety! LOL
But I know what you mean. I started craving steak with my 1st child and was coming out of my skin. My husband ended up taking me to a Flying J so I could get a steak at around 1AM.
With my 2nd child, we were extremely poor and I was not eating near enough calories. My mother and father-in-law came over and found our cupboards and fridge practically empty. I explained in tears that I hadn’t eaten anything but rice crispies in two days because I’d given everything to our first daughter so she wouldn’t be hungry. They took me to Golden Corral to get me as much as I could eat in one sitting. I ate several steaks, several pieces of chicken, two plates of salad, and load of potatoes and veggies before I started feeling normal. Then they took me to a grocery store and loaded us up.
So I don’t think you’re crazy at all. And it’s quite common to cry over stuff that feels silly while pregnant.
No, but this past month I have been craving things that I craved in my second pregnancy-super spicey food- and I’m not pregnant…but it kind of freaked me out because I thought maybe I could be…:)
Go get that BK! You deserve it!
Its funny!! When i was in the beginning of my pregnancy i saw a commerical for arbys, and i wanted a beef n cheddar and curly fries SOOOOO bad, it was late at night too,. i didn’t get it, but i thought about it all night and did get it the next day. fight it girl!! Chew some gum and get it tomorrow!! it will be sooo good tomorrow!
I am having an awful craving right now too! Not for a burger but for my mom’s homemade chipdip. I thought I had all the stuff to make it and was in town and got home and didn’t have one of the ingredients. I am so bummed! I could have called home to see if we had it and then I could have picked it up
I had many similar cravings my last pregnancy. I made many midnight trips to the store.
If you have to have it.. go get it!
