Crave Crazy

Pregnant women need to cope with increasing weight, morning sickness, enlarging abdominal, and so on, whereas men have to deal with… nothing.
But don’t ever think that the women will let the men get away without paying any price. They give men the craving.

I read that craving during pregnancy might be caused by the changing hormone or by nutritional deficiency. But the thing is, when a woman says that she wants to eat Orecchiette con Cima Zucchini at 3 am., you cannot know for sure whether it is the pregnancy body telling her that it needs the nutrition from the food, or your wife simply saying, ”You put this into my body! Now you go out and pay the price! You ungrateful *#*&^@!”, because pregnant woman’s craving is usually accompanied by the mood swing.

So, I believe that my wife is starting to have her craving. She started to ask for a lot of food that are tasty but not healthy. I say it must be the craving (although if such thing happens to me, it’s called “lunch”), because she has been trying to eat healthily, in between her nausea and bloating.
But I’ve been trying to accommodate that anyway, because if I don’t, then the baby will surely have an appetite of a Godzilla, unless it won’t. Well, actually I am not so sure about the effect of unsatisfied craving (somebody should look this up).

Anyway, I am going to put a list of everything that my wife is craving for during the nine months, and see how I can provide her with all the food.
