Okay, I'm craving laundry powder. Does anyone know something edible with a similar consistency??? I'm desperate 😞

Veggie or apple straws (the chip kind)? Chalky candy like sweet tarts or something?

Fun dip!!

And make sure you go get blood work to make sure your not deficient on any important vitamins or nutrients

😩 I feel your pains I’m craving chalk

Ice helps me a little with not wanting to eat comet! I chew it to where it’s really small and grainy. I really want sand, dirt, comet, and clean cat litter. My mouth waters!!!

Reminds me of when my mum was pregnant with my little sister and craved the charcoal we put on the grill! Didn’t realize this was common lol.

Is this a real pregnancy thing or an ep of “my strange addiction” 🤨

I be craving startch.

i crave tissue

Usually means there’s an iron deficiency.

@dinamarie1995 clean kitty litter smells good even without the pregnancy😍😔. I here and there take a spoonful of starch nd eat it😔 it's bad.

Cornstarch

Wait.... What?@leahdeere @dinamarie1995 @mar_la @damnkmar20

@gummybear728, I SAID I CRAVE TISSUE

@angienickel, i wouldnt be surprised if thats what it was i have iron deficiency i have really craved it recently due to me having a recent blood transfusion

@damnkmar20 I know what you said. But I've never heard of pregnant woman craving non-edible things..

@gummybear728 @natasha_penney definitely a real thing lol. It's called PICA. I have an iron deficiency.

@gummybear728 @natasha_penney this only happens when I'm pregnant. I crave the smell of cleaning products a lot. The desire to actually put the laundry powder in my mouth just started.

Wow. That's really interesting to be honest. I'm actually really curious about this now. I've never heard of this lol that's why I was in shock when I was reading the post/comments. Learn something new everyday!

@jleona this is actually very interesting

I crave it only when my iron is low or my hbg is low. It’s how I know I need to get blood work. It’s the graininess that we crave. It’s so bad. I eat ice to try and get my mind off of it. I go to the gas station 3 times a day🤦‍♀️ @gummybear728,

It’s actually very common. Mostly happens when you’re iron is low.

@dinamarie1995 oh wow! That is crazy!! I appreciate the information ladies!

@malbhurtado my OB prescribed iron pills, I just don't take them. I know I should be.
