Ugh cravings....

I've been sober since October 13th... I found it odd that I had no cravings in the beginning but come to find out I was pregnant ( happened after my last use date). However the last couple weeks I've had cravings it's driving me nuts.... Obviously I know the on,y option is to stay clean it's not about me any more. I just needed to talks about it :/

Congratulations on the baby and your sober time! Cravings are tough in the early days, what are you doing for recovery?

Congratulations? I echo the comments above....I had to work the AA program before the cravings went away permanently.

Congratulations on baby! Sorry about the cravings. I gave in to food cravings when I was pregnant. A substitute? My fallback is currently ice cream. I'm indulging now.

Congratulations on the baby and your sobriety! I just made it to a week of sobriety today. Right now I'm combating cravings with flavored seltzer water, soda, ice cream, and pretty much anything with chocolate. I know... not the best long-term game plan but its working for now. Best of luck to you!

I realize your drug is not alcohol but reading through these tips might help?
