Squashies are soft sweets that come in all sorts of flavours.
Although Michelle hasn’t revealed the sex of her baby, the cravings quickly had fans guessing.
It’s an old wives’ tale that a sweet tooth during pregnancy is a sign it’s a girl!
“I think you’re having a girl,” suggested one.
Another agreed: “A little girl on the way, I’d say.”
Plenty of other followers said they had the same craving and they weren’t even pregnant!
