Weird Aversions

Is anyone else experiencing aversions to things other than food? I have this really odd feeling of "sick" whenever I think about nature. Yes, nature. WTF? We recently went on a fantastic vacation where we kayaked, hiked & thoroughly enjoyed nature - and now the thought of the whole trip makes me want to puke. Just seeing a picture of a friend in the woods by a beautiful waterfall made me feel ill.  My husband thinks it might be that being out in nature is an "unsafe" feeling while being pregnant, needing to feel safe....I think I'm just mental. Anyone...anyone?

  • Yes!! I just got back from Europe and whenever I think about anything from the trip I get really nauseous. Seeing pictures of my friends on vacation now makes me nauseous. Airplanes, luggage, trains, any souvenir that I bought....it's bad. My husband is annoyed because we can't talk about our Europe trip ever. Im really hoping it passes soon...

  • @justxlaugh Were you pregnant on the trip? I was 4 weeks on ours & not experiencing much in the way of symptoms yet, just tired.

  • Last time I was pregnant I threw up after eating a salad and now I can't bring myself to eat one. I also haven't been really feeling vegetables in general lately.
  • Red meat, just the thought of a burger, which I love, makes me want to gag.

    @Spartanrd4 Salads are one of my favorite things to eat, but it just sounds horrible to me right now. This really makes me sad since I have fresh veggies from my garden.

    I have an aversion to going out! I just want to be home. The thought of leaving the house makes me feel queasy. This baby is a homebody like me and my husband :wink:

    EDIT: I just thought of another 'non-food' aversion (though I have plenty of food aversions too...) I can't STAND to look at pictures of food! I used to follow so many foodie instagrams, but now they make my stomach turn. 
  • I feel like I have to brush my teeth all the time. It's like the after taste of anything disgusts me. 
  • @Sazzical yeah I was 5 weeks. I just started to get nauseous the last few days we were there. Thank God we came home when we did!
