I realized I do that too.

'Cept now that's not good because I have a baby in me who likes to eat. xD

As for cravings... I dunno what's in Ice cream that I'm not getting enough of. I prefer frozen snacks over like snack foods, so really that's one of my main reasons for wanting Ice cream and popscicles.

And I don't even want to think of me thinking "mmm dirt!" xD

Deja vu. Did you down a bucket of iced cream earlier and poast about it?

When I'm lonely I go to public places. I'm never sad.

An escapist thing to do when I'm really upset is to go to bed. This is to avoid NON ISSUES like a crappy attack of hormones or somesuch thing.

You're probably tired of advice but here's some more! Look at what you're craving and think about it's nutritional content. Likely you don't want ice cream but you body has been deprived of something IN ice cream. A lot of pregnant women (before the advent of pre-natal vitamins, of course) in my family recall having very strong cravings for dirt and grass just because of the smells. My best friend (who is about 7 months along) also has dirt cravings sometimes. Probably due to lack of iron.

So yeah.

Women are... weird. >_>

Well, men can suffer from this too. All people can. It's called PICA.

In both of my pregnancies, I craved meats. With the older brat, I ate the hell out of beef jerky. The younger brat, I wanted buffalo wings everyday.
Foa is right, cravings usually stem from your body needing something. If you want something, its okay to eat it! Your body is wanting it for the baby and for a reason.
If you're worried about weight gain, try to do a little exercise. I found walking and swimming helped me. I would swim at my apt. complex and go walk the mall. Walking will also help with labor when you're later in your pregnancy.
Sour Cream and Onion chips and Dr. Pepper are my comfort foods.

If you have any ??'s or wanna talk Avarice-ness, lemme know..:)
