8. Are you having any weird cravings? / Are you craving pickles and ice cream?
Why do people think it’s a good idea to ask a pregnant woman about their cravings. To crave means to greatly or eagerly desire or yearn for something. So it would make sense, right? Asking a pregnant woman what type of food they desire most. Unless you plan on supplying her with whatever she says, at this point, it’d be smart to just keep your mouth shut because chances are she’s most likely not going to be able to stop thinking about whatever whacky combination of food she so desires until she gets it and she’ll hate you for every minute she doesn’t have said food combo in her possession just for mentioning it. And speaking of wacky food combinations, asking about pickles and ice cream is just dumb! Not only is pregnant women craving pickles and ice cream such a distorted cliché, put many pregnant women can get sick on just the thought of something that gross!
