Husband spies on pregnant wife and her strange cravings

Husband "spies" on his "very interesting pregnant wife"

In a TikTok clip, her husband Aaron set up a camera and began “spying” on his “very interesting pregnant wife”, all while showcasing her cravings. 

The mum-of-two sat on the corner of the couch with a table filled with snacks, including a box of Lucky Charms cereal, a fruit salad, a watermelon and a bottle of mustard.

She held a bottle of juice in one hand and grabbed a fistful of cereal in the other, using her tongue to grab the pieces of marshmallow and discard the rest. 

“Lizard mode activated,” Aaron said. After having a sip of juice, she took a few moments to sniff the fruit salad before eating it.

“Lizard mode activated”

Here’s when the pregnancy cravings really kick in. 

Chantal reached over to the bottle of mustard and tipped it upside down, squeezing it all over the watermelon. She then picked up the watermelon and took a large bite. 

Her dog, who watched (and possibly judged) her eating throughout the entire clip, jumped off the couch. 

Clearly, he’d had enough. “I can’t keep watching this,” the caption read.

But Chantal was unfazed, continuing to sniff and eat her snacks. 

Finally, she filled her mouth with whipped cream and placed a piece of fruit on top. “I guess she’s satisfied,” Aaron laughed.

“This is so chaotic!”

The clip has amassed 7.2 million views, with a wave of support for Chantal’s pregnancy eating habits. 

“The smell check is real,” a fan laughed. "You are awesome, Mama! I can totally relate,” added another. 

“I love the sniff test of each fruit to make sure it's not gonna make her nauseous before she eats it,” read a comment. “She’s living her best life, ok!” wrote a supporter. 

But some were puzzled by her food combinations. 

“Mustard on a watermelon? OMG,” wrote a shocked person. “This is so chaotic,” said another. 

While many people agreed the mix was “gross”, others shared their own unique cravings. “I did refried black beans and tuna fish with my fourth,” wrote a mum. “Had my whole family looking at me crazy cause of those cravings.” 

“My mum used to do mustard and cheese,” wrote another. 

Others suggested a more satisfying cereal alternative. “Just get the women a bag of cereal marshmallows,” someone wrote.

“At least she’s balanced with her snacks!” wrote a defender.
