How long long does food adversions typically last?

I am having an adversion to chicken, which is terrible since DH and I used to have that 4-5 nights a week. Now I do not know what to eat. It's been turkey meatballs, turkey burgers, Boca Burgers, and a little fish. I am tired of being creative! JK, but does anyone have any easy meals that do not include chicken? Also, is there a chance this adversion will disapear along with my nausea in the second try?! :)

Thanks!

  • I'm right there with you on the chicken. I've been eating a lot of beef and pork instead, or pasta. I'm sure it's not the best thing, but if I'm going to throw it up, chicken is probably even worse. I'm curious to know if it will go away when my appetite comes back in the 2nd tri.

  • I know, I hope so! It was a huge staple for us. Now we are like ugh what should we have? Before was chicken on salad, chicken stir fry, chicken and shrimp, etc. I hope it does. I actually tried to cook it anyway last week, because I thought it was 'just in my head' and boy I need to listen and trust myself more. I was so sick just from the smell of it cooking! lol

  • I couldn't eat ground beef during my entire pregnancy last time. It was so strange!
  • I know how you feel. I am now 10 weeks and the m/s is still really bad.

    I made tacos the other night and they tasted really good. I used the hard taco shells, ground beef (can use turkey too), sour cream, cheese, lettuce and salsa. Other than that a lot of pasta and mashed potatoes, any carbs taste good. Mot foods though make me sick just thinking about it. I am hoping by week 12 to have some relief'

  • I am happy to report in the last week I am almost back to normal! my problem was beef prepared any way, and only at dinner time. I still have some weird food + smell issues sometimes but I am eating at night again and feel somewhat normal!! hang in there!

  • I've had an aversion to meat, period : Thankfully I used to be a vegetarian, so finding sources of lean protein isn't an issue.

    I feel like the anti-Phoebe... Carnivorous until I got KU. :(
