Q: Craving a beer!? help ladies please.

Hey ladies, i'm 28 weeks pregnant and for the last 2 weeks I have been craving a cold drink of beer! I can't get the thought of it out of my head and I swear beer is all I can smell!
Thing is, I've never been interested in drinking alcohol, before I fell pregnant I hardly even drunk and I have never touched a drop whilst being pregnant either.
I don't want to give in to this craving but its driving me crazy!
Please help ladies, why might I be craving this? Is there anything I can do to get rid of this craving- but not consume alcohol? X

I know I'm going to get attacked for this, but honestly one beer wouldn't hurt the baby. One beer does not have enough alcohol to do anything, it's just doctors would rather say none than risk getting sued. It's the same with caffeine, doctors say none when in fact anything under 200mg per day is ok. I have a lot of friends from other countries and a glass of wine is perfectly accepted where they're from.

No idea what would cause a beer craving (except bad luck!), but you could try non-alcoholic beer? That might do the trick...
