    not sure if this is an actual craving but i am dyin for ice pops. ive had supersplits but the ice cream takes away from the 'hit' of the orange bit. i just thought of mr freezes. anyone remember them. im considering goin out to stock up on them. surely they would be safe... wouldnt they. theyre only ice. any ideas?

    also could you make ice pops out of orange robinsons drink or orange juice? water just aint quenching my thirst!!

    There was a slush puppie type machine in a coffee shop I went in today and that triggered a craving. Had to resist though as I'm sure that stuff is pure sugar!

    You can make ice pops from orange squash (or any flavour), just buy some plastic mould things. I'm sure they have them in supermarkets? Going to have to make some today I think :)

    Ice cream is definitely my pregnancy "thing"!
    My reasoning/ justification- I can't cool down most of the time- ice cream helps!
    Reflux is killing me- ice- cream soothes the burn!
    And I've a hematoma thing that's flaring up a bit, and my teeth are not great for a number of reasons- I need more calcium that's in ice cream!

    *Sneaks off to freezer to find some HB.... mmmm... rasberry ripple? :D

    Frozen green grapes are really good too!

    I get those little lunchbox-sized cartons of juice or smoothie and put them in the freezer. The innocent ones are amazing but expensive. Copella Apple juice cartons are half price in Tesco now. I've also used the Tesco organic cartons. Yum.

    after reading this thread I'd love a loop the loop now!! When I was pregnant with number 1 I loved eating ice.

    ive been craving any sort of ice/ cool pops, the problem is i dont know when to stop! i find the boxes of mr freeze coolpops are tiny id nearly go through the whole box in one night!! the ones ya buy separate in the shops are the best (the mega coolpops!) but cant get them in alot of shops, bought some choc pops and rockets today,id love a porky pig but i havnt seen then in years! its great when the shops sell all the old ice pops although after reading this i think il have to go the shop again for a loop the loop!!
