“Black-and-white milk shakes from the Shake Shack! I was pregnant in the summer, and toward the end I had them, well, almost daily. I indulged in quite a few juicy, delicious burgers there, too.” —Melisa Coburn
“It’s totally cliché, but I always craved Guss’ Pickles on the Lower East Side.” —Kathy Mora
“Cheesecake. The Stage Deli wanted $11 for a slice—talk about nausea—so we went to F. Monteleone & Cammareri Bros. Bakery in Carroll Gardens for mini individual cheesecakes. They were $2.50 each and wonderful.” —Abby West
“It’s a little odd, but I really wanted the spelt banana chocolate chip scones at Lifethyme Natural Market on Sixth Avenue at 9th Street.” —Jessica Shaw
“Ice cream cake. One day I stopped by a Carvel and found that they sell cake, with those chocolate crunchies, by the slice! I was ready to buy an entire cake, but this was a much more economical solution.” —Sonali Mody
“I’m pregnant right now. First trimester: nausea. Second trimester: Trader Joe’s nitrite-free bacon (had to limit myself to every other day). Third trimester: BLT Signature Burger (also with bacon). I’m trying to keep it down to one a week.” —Daphne Uviller
“All I wanted when I was pregnant were carbs and cheese. And I found a lot of food to satisfy me—baked potatoes with cheddar, mac and cheese—at Chat ’n’ Chew on 16th Street and Miss Mamie’s Spoonbread on 110th. They’re both child-friendly, too, so you can go back after you’ve had your kid.” —Raven Snook
