Cooking Is So Hard For Me

I love to cook but it is so hard for me to do right now.  Food smells repulse me while I am cooking.  I cooked for my hubby last week and I was actually looking forward to eating dinner with him, the food just ended up grossing me out.

I can't keep feeding my DH junk food/carry out you just get tired of that, you know? 

Anyone else have that problem?

Re: Cooking Is So Hard For Me

  • Yes. I'm still cooking away because we have two little ones as well, but I'm not really eating any of it. Everything makes me sick and it's getting worse not better at 14 + weeks. Keep trying, and keep taking your prenatals to get those extra vitamins.

  • I hear ya! Nothing sounds appealing to me at all. Except pizza but neither H or I should have to live 9 months on pizza. Most of the time my problem is that I'm so damn tiredi don't even want to cook. Hope it gets better for you!
  • I usually love to cook and am used to cooking every meal (so is DH.)  The thought of raw foods, vegetables, and standing over the stove.... can't do it.  I'm so miserable every time I pull into the drive thru.

  • Yeah...unfortunately my husband has been eating junk food and frozen crap (which I also consider junk).  I feel bad but I just cant get my self to cook right now, unless he wants vomit on his food :(

    I think I'm getting burnt out on it! I had it Thursday at work, Friday for dinner and Monday for dinner. I need something new.
  • I try to hold my breathe and then run out of the kitchen to breathe again! ugh. lol. It is rough.

    I was craving chicken, caeser salad and baked potato last night, so my hubby (wonderful) made it all...i started to eat it and my body was like...noooooo, what are you doing?

    sad.

  • Yah, i havent cooked much lately. I feel guilty but i just cant do it.  On sunday i made ravioli and garlic bread.  Sounded good until i ate it and promptly threw it all up 5 minutes later.

  • I'm glad I am not the only one - I love food and it is so disheartening that it repulses me now.

  • I can't even think about cooking without getting sick.  I write a cooking blog, and had to quit writing altogether for a while.  Getting a little better now, and I'm posting things I've written a while ago but hadn't posted yet.  At least I can stand to read them now!
