Food aversions -_-

amandoza23 · December 2015

It's already starting. Last time around I could only eat yogurt and string cheese my entire first trimester because everything else turned my stomach. I couldn't even finish a bowl of my favorite cereal this morning. Whyyyyy I just want to eat

ashleyluxe · December 2015

I just threw out my salad because I couldn't stand the lettuce in it. It tasted off but I know it was perfectly fine. Sigh.

bluesky24 · December 2015

Ugh I just don't want to eat anything. Did three laps around my work cafeteria before settling on a soup that's essentially just chicken broth and only ate half of it...and yesterday a lime in my seltzer water was the worst thing I've ever tasted.

I find it very difficult to eat anything sweet

I've been able to eat anything else though

My aversions consist of anything healthy - veggies, salads, etc. A midwife friend said that it's very common to crave/gravitate toward carbs because they are lower in bacteria than say leafy greens or meat. I thought that was interesting!

Very interesting! I couldn't eat meet at all my first tri last time. Carbs are always my friend lol I was able to eat some pasta for lunch today actually

First trimester with DS I seemed to live on sourdough bread and ginger ale. I certainly couldn't stand salad but this time around I'm shoveling it down and everything else sounds wretched.

holdensmama15 · December 2015

I don't have any aversions really but I'm just not hungry. Then I force myself to eat (and drink tons of water) and feel gross after.

BritMC18 · December 2015

My food aversions only really kicked into gear in the last few days. I went to put a piece of spearmint gum in my mouth and nearly threw up from the taste/smell. Also, I'm craving salads with chicken badly, but when I go to eat one it triggers nassea.

Pretty much all I can stomach right now are string cheese sticks, mandarin oranges, and bread.

JenniferMasters · December 2015

lol all I can eat in the morning are saltines and string cheese! What's with string cheese that makes it so edible?? lol
Hot pockets smell so bad my DH warns me now to leave the room if he has to eat one. I get crazy hungry at lunch and can usually stomach something solid like soup but dinner is a no go-I just have no appetite and bloat easily so I don't want to eat anything

noodles, rice, and plain protein help

Today the thought of water makes me nauseous. I used to drink water constantly but today, I had to fight to finish a small bottle.

babybravesfan · December 2015

@ashleybaker712 water for me too! It's like since I know I should be drinking a ton of it, it makes me sick to even think about it.

Also, I had this last time around too but chicken sounds disgusting right now.

ashleybaker712 · December 2015

@babybravesfan last time I couldn't handle chicken. I would try to eat it but for some reason it just seemed slimy and nasty.

DragonMom2 · December 2015

I loved fluffer nutters, ( peanut butter and marshmallow fluff sandwhich). Now I can't stand peanut butter!!!

ioliodio · December 2015

Meat. All meat suddenly. I was predominately vegetarian last pregnancy... I guess it's going to happen again this time.

ioliodio · December 2015

Oh, and water. Water is the only thing lately that consistently makes me throw up.

karaszoo1 · December 2015

Yes water is killing me too!!!!
And most everything else.im praying that I don't have all day sickness the entire pregnancy like I did with 16 mo old(it was literally 24 /7)even puked thru my entire labor.ever try pushing while puking at the same time ,yeah not fun.they had to bring in an extra nurse to hold a puke bucket....

Merocket59 · December 2015

Coffee! Took a few sips and it was gross. I spoke with the nurse at the OB office today and she said I could have luncheon meat if I put it in the microwave when I got home from the grocery store and I wanted to vomit just thinking of it! But I'm all for any real meat or chicken. Apples also don't taste quite right, I had one last week and it tasted like styrofoam, so today I had a green apple since it would have more taste but it was way too tart. Bananas and peanut butter are my new favorite, can't get enough.

BooksForMe23 · December 2015

All sweets! The other day, I could smell the Hershey kiss my husband was eating from across the room, and I yelled at him for breathing chocolate smell at me. He thought I was nuts. I've been obsessed with pistachios, and usually I don't like any nuts.

alwayshug · December 2015

@karaszoo1 That sounds awful! Here's hoping that doesn't happen again!

My husband made bacon, toast, and scrambled eggs for breakfast this morning and I couldn't eat more than two bites of the eggs. I just couldn't make myself do it. This is my first food aversion so far.

ashleyluxe · December 2015

@alwayshug That was one of the weird signs that made me think I was pregnant. I grabbed breakfast at work and the girl paying for her breakfast had eggs and I literally thought I was going to lose it. I had breakfast today with old work friends and the eggs... get them off my plate. I normally only slightly tolerate eggs but now I think I despise them! Glad I am not alone!

CityWest · December 2015

So glad I'm not alone in this! I really feel for all of you!!

I'm either feeling queasy or completely uninterested in food. All my favourites foods now gross me out and finding something for me to eat is starting to drive my husband crazy. The only thing I've enjoyed was a Hungarian dish (full of butter and potatoes) made by my MIL. Meal times roll around and NOTHING appeals, I've been forcing myself to eat some soup or toast.

If I get a whiff of someone who has been smoking or has eaten garlic then nausea kicks in for the next hour or so too!! Yuck!.

DressageDarling · December 2015

My DH and I went out for a date night last night and I had been craving steak. I took one bite and it was awful. It tasted terrible and the texture was just not pleasing at all.

I agree with you there. I haven't gotten nauseous but nothing sounds good and I am almost never hungry. I didn't know that could be a symptom.

tyannej · December 2015

My adversions so far consist of Cheetos, saltine crackers (which may be an issue in the long run), and all I've wanted to eat is pickles.

Simpledesign629 · December 2015

@bameier I'm also craving salads!! So bizarre! But I have no food aversions yet...as weird as it sounds I want to get that feeling to assure myself I'm really pregnant!

WinchesterGirl · December 2015

Apparently this baby strongly dislikes cheddar cheese. Almost got sick just trying to grate some for dinner tonight
