MAKE UP YOUR MIND!

This baby... I will crave something and then after one bite I am immediately repulsed by it.

For example...

We went to a restaurant last night and I had some pulled pork nachos as an appetizer. They were amazing and my mouth was salivating for just more pulled pork. So I ordered the pulled pork plate. The second the food was set in front of me my gag reflexes kicked in and I could no longer even stomach having it in front of me.

A week or two before I was craving a nice cheesy pizza... no toppings... just CHEESE... (probably was low on calcium) I bought a nice cheese pizza from my favorite pizza restaurant and after one bite I immediately felt the urge to hurl. I couldn't stand the smell... the sight... I had to have my husband take it away from me.

I wanted a banana... took two bites and threw it away. I wanted tacos (mostly just the ground beef)... could only eat one...

I get hungry but when I eat something this kid is like... "Oh... That's not what I thought it would taste like..."

  • I know the feeling very well!  Mine is kind of similar.

  • I am the same way! Everything is disgusting and I am having a hard time getting my daily calories in.
  • My husband often makes big batches of chicken and vegetable stir fry. The last time he made it, the chicken repulsed me so bad I had to clean the kitchen and open all the doors and windows and light candles. Well, last night he made it again. The smell bothered me but wasn't horrible. Until I woke up in the middle of the night smelling it in the bedroom. It was torture. I just got home from work and the whole house smells like it. I can't even open the fridge. So I feel your pain on being repulsed!!! I want to bleach the whole house.
  • Yup. I will be in the middle of chewing something that sounded amazing 5 minutes earlier and then have to go spit it out! haha
  • I bought some of those orange frosted hostess cupcakes because I was craving them, and then didn't want anything to do with them for weeks!

    I've never tried them! I'm 50% intrigued and 50% disgusted by the notion of orange frosting. I'm sure I'll be buying these tomorrow. Thanks a lot.

    The whole thing is actually orange flavor. They're delicious! (And cream filled ;) )

  • Me too! I hate it! It's making meal planning a PITA!
  • Agreed! I'm baffled how to do meal planning currently. All the foods that I originally craved now make me sick just thinking about them.
  • So last night I made something I cannot begin to spell or pronounce correctly.  It was German food.  But it contained onions.  So far have been okay with the smell it left in the house....... Then I went out for a couple of hours today and came back home and the smell knocked me down soon as I walked into the door.  I was like whoah.  That seriously stinks.  Took out the trash and lit some candles.  Hoping that will help.

  • Exactly what's been happening with me! At least it's been helping me not to completely binge out, but it's so frustrating! I sit there staring at my plate wanting to eat more, but i know that if I have another bite it will make me sick.
  • Tonight I was reminded of the one dish I can actually finish- salad. I keep saying this baby is gonna be a health nut.
  • I'm driving my husband insane (I think - he's been calm and quiet about it). Last week, we drove around for 30 mins in search of a burrito only to get home and be repulsed by it. Last night, we got ready to go out for pizza, got to the restaurant and left to head for the grocery store for steaks and apple sauce. I'm an apple freak right now. Thankfully it's the right time of year for them!

    Crisp, green lettuce and spinach is absolute heaven to me right now! I don't even want any sort of dressing, just greens! (I finally understand the Baker's mother from Into the Woods and her crazy pregnancy craving for "Greens, greens, nothing but greens!"...)

    We had dinner at the ILs and all I could stomach was salad. My (very Italian) MIL was super offended and kept loading my plate with all this food. I tried to be polite, but the idea of tomato sauce and meat and garlic...oh man, I want to hurl just thinking about it! So after we finally announced I am pregnant at dessert, my MIL was like "You know you are supposed to gain weight, right? You look like you have lost 20 lbs already! Don't starve that baby!" while cutting me a huge slice of chocolate cake. Thanks...and I've only lost 8lbs, thank you very much!

    LOL! Yeah I haven't gained any weight since I found out I was pregnant. I haven't been wanting to eat anything.

  • Wish I was in that boat! Depending on the day, I'm up 2-6 pounds. I'm trying to be very careful about weight gain as I don't need to gain more than 10-20 pounds in total.
