I’m pregnant and crave washing up liquid – I force myself to smell it multiple times a day to stop myself drinking it
IT’S pretty common to crave some peculiar food combinations during pregnancy, but one mum-to-be has taken her cravings to another level.
Yanni, who is 30 weeks pregnant, took to social media to show one of her bizarre cravings that she’s had to deal with.
“POV: You’re 30 weeks pregnant, anaemic and crave dish liquid,” she wrote over the viral TikTok video.
In the clip, the mum shows herself squirting bright orange washing up liquid into a wine glass filled with water and ice.
She then vigorously stirs it with a spoon before taking a big sniff of the soapy water.
Of course, Yani never actually drinks the soap, but to curb her intense cravings she came up with a savvy solution, which she showed off in the video.
She first sniffed the soap, before taking a big gulp of another icy drink, and then smelled the soap again, to create the illusion of actually drinking the forbidden beverage.
It turns out the mum also craved the soapy substance during her other pregnancies too.
She explained: “Yes I craved dish liquid with all three pregnancies.
“Yes do it multiple times a day, yes it goes away after birth and no I would stop posting about it.”
The comments section of the video showed people shocked by the unusual craving and didn’t know what to make of it.
One commented: “I thought she was about to drink it and got scared.”
A second agreed: “I was worried for a second there.”
And another mum confessed to having the same craving, she said: “I craved soap too omg, and laundry detergent.”
“I had these cravings with laundry detergent,” another confessed.
And another mum wrote: “I crave bleach, I loved washing my whites after they came out the washer I’d sit there and sniff forever.”
WHAT CAUSES PREGNANCY CRAVINGS?
Eating things that aren’t food, like soap, is called Pica – and the unusual cravings don’t just happen during pregnancy.
If you do consume items that aren’t considered food you should contact a medical professional for help as it could be very dangerous.
Although more research is needed to fully understand why cravings happen, some believe it’s down to hormonal changes, which can affect your sense of taste and smell.
This means you may crave foods you don’t usually enjoy, or go off some of your favourite grub.
According to the pros at Tommy Pica is often a sign of anaemia, and some other common non-food cravings can include:
- clay or dirt
- ice or freezer frost
- stones
- charcoal
- soap
- pieces of paper
- chalk.
