It sounds kind of strange, I think, to crave beer period let alone while being pregnant, especially being a woman! I was wondering if anyone else has too. I'm not much of a beer drinker at all and would drink Bud Light if I ever did lol and I never really drank at all for about a year before I even got pregnant... of course now that I'm pregnant I'm not considering having a beer! So, anyone else crave it? ...wonder what it could be...

Actually yes, I did crave breer for awhile in this preganacy. I have had two others in which I never did but it is the strangest thing because I NEVER drink beer!! I would walk by the beer isle in the grocery store and seriously consider buying some but I wouldn't even know what to buy. I never did because I won't even have a glass of wine while pregnant but it was the oddest thing that I craved beer. I think it has something to do with the hobbs or the barley, I don't know but you are not alone.

Well, i dont know why that is, but i`m just the same - i want beer since the week 3 or so. However, i didnt dislike it before as well, though i just drank some 2-3 times a year, however now it drives me nuts that i cant even take it. Its a little bad for your hubby to eat or drink the stuff you crave but cannot have in front of your eyes. If he is understanding enough, maybe you can ask him to stop drinking beer in front of you to help you make feel better. I`m personally already dreaming of getting a breast pump so that i can fill up some clean milk and then celebrate a little. I dont have the guts to wait for 6 or more months even after birth and a baby for sure doesnt need a cranky mother :) I`m almost 20 weeks now! Good luck with your pregnancy too!

Beer huh?! LOL! I've been craving "vodka cruisers" lately! The funny thing is before I was pregnant it's wasn't exactly my choice of drink! Of course I've been strong and haven't had any, but I'm already picturing me with a cruiser in my hand once the baby is born! Anyway who knows once the baby is born maybe I won't be craving cruisers anymore!

Oh yes! I have had the craving for a beer also. Just one beer sounds so good. But of course can't have it. I think the fact that we can't drink makes us want one....and now at least you know you're not the only one.

I did crave beer with my first pregnancy, and before I became pregnant, I could not stand the taste of it. I would drink a half of can at times. It never hurt me nor my baby. I had a beer maybe once or twice a month. Sometimes I would take a couple of sips, and be done with it. It was very limited.

I had the same weird craving and I have never been much of a drinker. I think its because you can't have it...that makes you want it more. I also crave things like fish (no no because of mecury), hot dogs (no no because of listeria), and same with lunch meat. I want everything I can't have!
My craving for beer went away about 2 weeks ago. You will probably stop wanting it after a while.

I do. Especially with the weather getting warmer. I bought a six-pack of non-alcoholic beer and drink one when the craving hits. It's not as good as a quality beer, but whatcha gonna do??

Yes I have had a craving for beer...Until my husband opened one up next to me and I got sick from the smell!!! People crave very wierd things while pregnant. My cousin is 8 months pregnant and says she craves cigarettes...But I think that may be her excuss for smoking! lol
