Cravings do not constitute pregnancy.
Anyone can crave certian foods , men ,
women and children! Cravings are not
symptom nor are they something to
determine pregnancy by. Take a test thats
what they are made for.

You can crave anything when you are
pregnant. Many people crave things and
are not pregnant too. IF you think you
are pregnant, pregnancy tests are easy to
take.
Usually what a craving tells you is that
your body is lacking something in that
food. I am not talking about addictions.
But say you crave spinach for some
reason...that would be because of it's
iron content. I know, who craves spinach
lol....but you get the idea.

No, it sounds like you're hungry. Your
body can crave foods even when you're NOT
pregnant. Perhaps you have an iron
deficiency?

This question goes along with the question
that I had asked earlier in the day, and
this is not the only symptom that I have
been having. Also I do have an iron
deficiency due to anemia....and I don't
have these cravings normally, nor any time
in the past. I do not believe that they
are linked because the type of anemia that
I have is a rare type only found in people
of mediteranean descent. Consuming more
iron does not help.
