Hailey Bieber’s pregnancy cravings are a chimera of misaligned food items. She was sure to share the unholy concoction on social media.
On Wednesday, May 15, the 27-year-old model took to her Instagram Stories to share a snapshot with her followers, showcasing the variety of foods she’s been craving during her pregnancy with her and Justin Bieber’s first child.
“Currently my biggest craving… egg salad on top of a pickle with hot sauce, and no you’re not allowed to judge!!”, Hailey wrote alongside a photo of her holding the grotesque pile of slop.
Do Hailey Bieber’s Pregancy Cravings Hold Up to Scientific Scrutiny? Probably Not…
While many American women insist pregnancy cravings are a fact of life, the science is muddy. Researchers have found that pregnancy cravings are not necessarily experienced in all cultures.
In cultures where English is not the primary language, and where women do report cravings, the desired items significantly differ from those commonly reported in the US and UK. For example, in Japan, rice is the food most craved by women experiencing such cravings.
Turns out, those pregnancy cravings for pickles and ice cream might not be the nutritional heroes we thought they were. Studies hint that craved foods don’t pack the nutrient punch needed during pregnancy. Giving in to cravings too often can tip the scales past what the doctor recommends, leading to potential complications.
Meanwhile, Hailey’s pregnancy cravings revelation comes after she showed off her growing baby bump in her Instagram stories. The image shows Hailey wearing a sleeveless top that exposes her tummy. Her right-hand rests underneath the bump, a portrait of a proud mother-to-be.
Last week, the joyful pair announced on Instagram that Hailey is expecting, accompanying the news with images from their vow renewal and a maternity photo shoot, some of which were captured by Justin.
Reports indicate Hailey is six months pregnant, although details about the baby’s gender or name have not yet been disclosed.
Justin and Hailey tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at a New York City courthouse on September 13, 2018. They later celebrated their union with a vow exchange in the presence of friends and family in South Carolina on September 30, 2019.
