It's normal. I am also 20 weeks (having a boy) and want spicy food (not salty). Some women get a sweeter tooth while other prefer salty/spicy. I would just say to limit your salt intake. Good luck!

i am going to be 24 weeks on wednesday( having a boy) and my entire pregnancy i have craved salty and sweet foods and while niether are good for you you can still have them in moderation

I'm 25 weeks (boy) and all I have been craving is salty and spicy.  With chocolate chip cookies here and there! ;)

Its perfectly normal. Usually when cravings like that hit its because your body is needing something and your not getting enough. I'm about 24 weeks and lately I've been craving salty/sweet foods. Its a very hard combination to find.

cleighty honey, have you tryed chex mix sweet and salty. I am (11 weeks) always craving for that and trust me its hits both the spot for sweet spot and salty spot at the same time.
