Where are the cravings?

Everyone told me to wait until my third trimester...that food would taste like it never has before in my life...that my cravings would be so overwhelming they would cause me to rush to the grocery store at all hours of the day just to satisfy them. Being a food lover, I was very excited for this. Well, I am 30 weeks pregnant and I have not had one single craving. Of course I feel like certain foods more than others, but that isn't atypical of my behavior when I am not pregnant.

In the beginning of my pregnancy, I had a taste for lemonade and licorice, but this faded quickly and wasn't really that strong. So where are the cravings? I guess I shouldn't speak too soon, I have 10 weeks left...perhaps they will surface in the next week or two.

Yeah, I'm waiting for the same thing. In the very beginning, I craved healthy foods like smoothies. Now I'm feeling like my normal self, thinking about McDonald's fries and double cheeseburgers. That's not the pregnancy talking.

for me it was ice cream with hot fudge sauce. Once it was watermelon and pepsi. chocolate seemed to be a big one for me, but nothing like pickles and ice cream together.
