When people get pregnant, they usually expect to experience nausea, fatigue, and maybe even vomiting.
Once the morning sickness subsides, typical food cravings can kick in.
However, some types of cravings may be unexpected.
That’s good because restricting food during pregnancy is never a wise idea.
What a vegetable craving means
Believe it or not, some pregnant people crave vegetables.
It’s not a bad craving to have and it doesn’t signal anything harmful.
Doctors are split onwhat exactly causes cravings.
Leafy greens offer vitamins A, K, and folate.
According toMayo Clinic, you need 27 grams of iron every day while pregnant so every bit helps.
Veggies also contain high amounts of fiber which help ease and prevent pregnancy constipation.
Besides fruit and vegetables, whole grains, protein, and dairy are all vital for a healthy pregnancy.
