[edit] Food cravings

Some food craving are due to your bodies lack of nutrients. If you have a craving for something have it. There's nothing wrong with permiting yourself to having some chocolate or a piece of cake just don't do any binge eating. If you have any wierd craving for inedible stuff talk to your doctor about it before you have it. For me I had craving for foods all through my pregnancy, but cravings are usually during the first trimester.
