I think its the bodies way of telling you that you lacking something. If you crave icecream for example, maybe its your body telling you that you need calcium, etc. Thats what my doctor told me, She said if you crave it, then your body needs it. The only time you should not give in to cravings is if you start to crave to eat clay or dirt, that is a problem called Pica, and you should see a doctor, otherwise enjoy and eat, but eat fatty foods in moderation so you don't have weight problems after.

Usually, their body craves what it is lacking. If they are craving pickles, it's usually the salt your body needs. I was dehydrated, so my body craved ice, and popsicles. Try finding a green (lime) popsicle in the middle of winter!!!

That's your body telling you what it needs. For instance, you may be craving something sweet. This could be your body telling you to take in more sugars such as fruit. If you're craving burgers then you may need to add some protein to your diet.

some woman crave things that are missing from their diet, but as was said before most cravings are all in the mind of the pregnant woman.

Lack of certain nutrients. If you crave red meat or spinach, you are probably low in iron, etc.

honestly i think its the fact that you can eat whatever you want and not worry about getting fat for 9 months out of your life lol. Thats what i think. I love being pregnant because i can eat whatever whenever i want and have no one question it lol. Thats my take on it :) And then the best part is having the baby and losing it all.....but then you become worried of over eating again lol

It is said that it is something their body is lacking, like if you are craving salty foods your body is lacking in sodium.

They really don't know why but it is suggested it is because the body is needing a specific nutrient or vitimin.

because the baby is demanding nutrients that your body might be lacking.
