I am 33 weeks along with my second daughter, and each pregnancy, around this time, I have craved wine. I am not an alcoholic, never have been. But I have drank alcohol before. I have not given in to this craving, but it's so strong that I can smell it, i can really smell wine! I know that one drink wouldn't hurt anything, but I'm not 21 anyways. So my question is has anyone craved anything like this?

One of my aunts had a similar experience, only with her it was beer, not wine. And the NA beer just didn't cut it. She craved beer the whole time, and she's not a beer drinker.
Me, I craved pineapple through my entire first pregnancy. I just could NOT get enough of the stuff.

I craved both peanut butter and hot dogs with my kids. The weird thing is that i really hate both.
If you're craving wine, it sounds like you're in need of a safer substitute. Try sparking grape juice. You'll get the taste without the alcohol that will definitely harm your baby at this stage.

Try dealcoholized wine. Brand names are Ariel (the best), Sutter Fre, and Carl Jung. There are some decent ones; Ariel has won awards in competition with regular wines.
I crave sushi when I'm pregnant. I think it's something about the seaweed, some mineral in it, because I also crave miso soup.

I know the feeling! I drank once in a blue moon (while I was not pregnant) only on special occasions, like new years. But now that I am pregnant with my second child I am craving alcohol like crazy. ~Bon

I am a wine drinker but when I was preg. I craved Corona (I hate beer) I made my husband drink it instead of Coors lite so I could at least have a little sip every now and again.
