I had pica when I was pregnant with both of my kids, but it was all about the ice. I guess that’s the most common. It had to be specific ice though, and my poor boyfriend has probably made over a dozen trips, to a specific gas station, ten miles from where we live to get it, in the middle of the night 😂

-_- · Answer

No that’s so awful; I’m glad he told your doctor. It’s a disease called Pica and it’s a vitamin deficiency

@tinafowlkes50 Yes it's horrible! And I couldn't imagine taking 3 a day 😝 I'm going to do my best to start taking the 1 everyday. I don't know how important it is but it must be crucial if the Dr. wants us to take something for it

Shannon · Answer

@tinafowlkes50 Honestly, even though i haven't been taking them everyday, I notice that the craving isn't as bad. (Its still there) but I can control myself now. So I think with time and persistence,  the craving will go away. But then I see some other women on here saying the craving never went away even with the pills so I have no clue!

Tina · Answer

@miss_understood I had the same issue with my last son. He is 4 now, but I only had the craving for a few months but I never took my pills. I did loose alot of blood during delivery and was extremely cold after. So I'm hoping we both do better with our meds. ❤️ We got this.
