Has anyone else experience pica? I have been craving some weird things and I don’t know if it’s harmful to have the cravings but I think I need to tell someone because it’s becoming a problem.

What do you crave if you dont mind me asking
Toni 🌸🌟💕··
Things like clay, lent from the dryer or vacuum even dryer sheets and deodorant sometimes.

What are you craving? I've heard of chalk a lot. Maybe you have a bit of a vitamin deficiency? Maybe we could try to find alternatives?

I have cravings for clay, lent from dryer and vacuum. Dryer sheets and deodorant. The urge to eat them has began to get stronger. Maybe. My doctor never said anything with blood test but then again I’m not sure if I was tested for vitamin deficiency.

I'd talk with your ob so they can run tests and see what your body is lacking.

@jenx, I didn’t think of it like that. Definitely a great idea ! Thank you . Maybe I should try something like grits and marshmallows? Not together of course lol.
JenX··
yes! And cotton candy is fluffy like lint.
Toni 🌸🌟💕··
I will try these and I hope that it works. I am really afraid of starting a bad habit like that.

It is definitely harmful to have those things you’re craving so don’t give in lol . But like @jenx, said I would find things that are edible that have the same textures as these things you’re craving .

@jenny955, I told my husband to stop and get some cotton candy for the lent cravings. 🤞🏽 hope it helps
🌸GoodVibeTribe🌸··
no I honestly have no idea what they got for it .

that's all I could really think of that would be almost the same kind of texture. But good I'm glad hope it works

So bad during my last pregnancy. I wanted the laundry detergent I use. 😂 Obviously I didn't give in, but I did laundry constantly so I could sit and smell it.

Omg 😂 , that sounds like me with the dryer sheets. I keep buying different fragrances and wash clothes often just to smell the sheets and rub my fingers through it lol.
