My ever-changing food aversions

ReeceFamily · October 2011

I swear my food aversions change with every meal, and it's driving me crazy. If Chinese food sounds good right now, you can bet it's going to sound horrid later today. Makes grocery shopping a pretty tricky affair, mostly I have given up and eat out alot according to my whims!

I'm 100% with you on this.

Something that sounds awesome now will completely turn my stomach in an hour or so. My poor husband (who does 99% of the shopping and cooking) is being very patient with me, but it's a little frustrating. He actually suggested that, for now, we just shop for the basics and pick up what we need to make dinner on a daily basis so I can decide what I want each day.

We thankfully live right down the street from the grocery store, so this week, I'm going to go each morning and pick up what I want for the day, otherwise I don't think I'd eat.

I agree! DH and I went out to dinner last Friday. I was excited to go to my fave place. I ordered soup which was good, but once my favorite meal came out I didn't want it anymore... I didn't even want it in front of me.

The waitress insisted that she bring me something else (I didn't tell her that I was pg) I just told her that I was full from soup and bread and that I would eat it for lunch. All DH could do was laugh... he thinks all of this is funny... I'm NOT LAUGHING!!!

Yeah, grocery shopping is tough bc my tastes change every minute. DH doesn't understand that.

ugh. I feel you. It does make grocery shopping awful. DH is on his own for the next few weeks and I had to send my mom out to get healthy food for DD, I just couldn't do it yesterday when we went grocery shopping

This. And, what is up with healthy food sounding gross? All I want is fast food...how is that good for baby? I'm normally a lean-meat-and-veggies kind of gal, but not now!

I'm right here too. I had a list of "ok foods" that I went and bought a ton of... Needless to say, the next day they were all "NO WAY foods". Shopping = sucks!

When I was pregnant with DD, I thought DH was going to kill me over my changing food aversions. I would send him an e-mail in the afternoon suggesting pizza for dinner, but by the evening I wouldn't be able to stomach pizza so he had his hopes up for nothing. Yesterday I was thinking maybe we could grill steaks and right now the thought of steak makes me want to be sick. Fun times!

I feel you guys on the grocery shopping. We try to make a loose plan for the week and then buy stuff to make the meals. DH was working this weekend so I had to make the list of food for the week. I was thinking saltines all week. I hate food right now. I ended up just making the most boring list of stuff dh likes. I will eat it if it is front of my face - but I don't want to think about it!

Right there with you... I literally cannot think of a single thing that would appeal to me right now. UGH. Everything DH suggests just makes me sick!

I can barely stomach anything at this point! Sipping ginger tea all day is the only thing that is keeping me from feeling too nauseous all day. I've been subsisting on bagels, PB&J, and chicken broth & noodles (no meat) for the past few days. I can't even look at mozzarella cheese! It's definitely making life challenging as I usually did the grocery shopping and cooking!
