as oppossed to 'wishful thinking' or whatever. For instance, girls get on here to list their symptoms of possible pregnancy, and many of them say that they are craving foods after just like 2 weeks of supposed pregnancy. My question is how can you know that you are actually craving foods, unless you are never hungry otherwise or something? I realize that everyone has different symptoms, but that also makes me think, how can you know that you are not just more aware of these supposed 'symptoms' because you already think that you may be expecting?
I think that what it is,…I think in the mind you know you are pregnant and your mind is making you think you want all these foods, but really you aren't craving at all! i was pregnant twice, got the cravings yes,…but then i was pregnant, i didn't care,…I thought i was pregnant, i was thinking i was hungry all the time, wanting taco bell, late 2 weeks and It was nothing,…so really i think its the mind making yo believe that you want it to be true so you make your self think that you are really craving these foods!!!!
Totally. I think it's the way the mind works, hence why placebo pills always seem to do the trick in "healing" some illnesses.
I haven't actually craved anything. nothing that I wouldn't categorzied as a "want to eat"… but that has been happening since I first learned to eat. "I feel like a bowl of ice cream"… I don't think it was a pregnancy sign at age 6 though hehe
Diamond Girl, I suggest that you get a pregnancy test and find out if you are or not. I crave things from time to time, and I know darn well that I am not pregnant. Same thing with my wife. she is craving chili right now, and has been for two days, yet she cannot be pregnant. the mind is a funny thing, and likes to play tricks on the body, it seems.
Get a test and find out for certain.
