It is not uncommon. Your body is having some changes and sometimes women will crave add foods. The worry is if you crave harmful things like laundry detergent or soap.

I never really craved anything out of the ordinary.... Except when I would eat eggs, I would put it on a piece of butter toast with apple jelly and ketchup....lol

I've also heard if you crave things like ice or meat you need iron. But, I don't know lol

Jalapenos can't hurt the baby.
Spicy foods are fine, they just may give you heartburn..
I eat sooo much spicy foods as that isn't what triggers my heartburn, thank goodness. I loove spicy. Lol
