  57. I'm pregnant now and I have no cravings.. None. Should I be worried. Or maybe it just means my baby has all the nutrients it needs. I am trying to eat a balanced diet. More fruit and vegetables. Or maybe it's cause I am just five months pregnant. Wait till I am further on, maybe then the cravings will strike.. Can't wait!

  94. My wife will leave all the food in the house, sneak out a stainless steel bowl and go to beg for party rice. Also if she asks for agbalumo, you dare not say you can't get it because she will cry like a baby you will think you have killed somebody. The one that drives me crazy most is not even food... She will suck my nipple for hours on end. No sex, she doesn't want to have sex she just wants to suck my dry nipple for hours(it tickles me lie crazy) and she will cry so much when I get up if she is not yet satisfied except she is satisfied .
