Aversion to meat

in 2nd Trimester
I still don't want to eat it.
At least I can smell it and not get sick anymore.  I am having to make myself eat it (this is all meat, chicken, pork, hamburger, venison, fish).  After I eat meat my stomach gets really upset and I feel that way for hours.  Anyone else this way?  Should I just give up the fight and get my protien elsewhere?  I didn't really eat it that much before pregnancy, but I liked it and now I really really don't.

    I would just find protein elsewhere.  I was vegan for 9 months last year so know what vegetarian stuff I like as far as protein goes.

    Good for you for forcing yourself...that's far better than what I'm doing :)

    I use a lot of peanut butter, nuts and beans.

    I will need to start doing that.  Only bad thing is we have a freezer full of beef from my parents cow, a whole deer, and fish from home.  That was money we wouldn't have to spend.  Beans here I come, they are actually pretty cheap though.

    i have the same problem. i usually love chicken and it makes me want to throw up. same with ground beef. *shudders* dont try to force yourself if it makes you sick. there are plenty of other options out there: peanut butter, beans, yogurt, etc.

    im going through the same thing however it's the taste AND texture of the chicken and beef that is totally grosing me out these days. this didn't happen in my first pregnancy. it's really true that every pregnancy is different. i've pretty much lost my appetite. i force myself to eat. ugh. i've been eating a lot of peanut butter, edamame, eggs, beans.

    I also had a huge aversion to meat and almost all protein, especially at the beginning of my pregnancy. I can eat it better now, but I still supplement with lots of beans, nuts, peanut butter, and I add dr. approved protein powder to my smoothies. hth!

    I feel the same way. I find I can eat a burger or chicken sandwich. Thats about it. Good luck!

    Since around 6 weeks I haven't been able to eat chicken.  I can eat beef which is weird because I was mostly a vegetarian before.  But, chicken, even the sight of it makes me want to vomit.
