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.
