THIS IS THE WEIRDEST THING I'VE EVER HEARD!!!


Do you have pica? Some pregnant women experience cravings for non-food items during their pregnancy such as dirt, ashes, ice, laundry starch, baking soda, toothpaste, paint chips, coffee grounds, and even cigarette butts! There isn’t an explanation for these behaviors just yet. Obviously, any doctor would tell you not to indulge your bizarre cravings as they interfere with digestion and/or poison you!

pica is also a craving for chewing ice. i TOTALLY have that. i've heard that 1.) you have low iron, 2.) you're sexually frustrated. hmm. definately not number 2!
