When do the food aversions/cravings start?

satsumasandlemons · November 2016

I suspect I'm using pregnancy as an excuse, but I'm barely ku'd and not even 4 weeks pregnant!

i need to slow my roll, I think.

Perhaps you could check out either the symptoms thread or the what my pregnant self is eating thread where this topic is being discussed.

It's different for everyone, however as @caribbeanmama suggested you should look into the threads that are already started.

Thanks for guiding me here - I did look through a few search functions and stopped short of trying to piece together timelines and cravings to get an answer to my question.

I only had aversions on the 3 days I was nauseous so far - week 6.

This is always one of my most obvious symptoms (I don't get many - usually fatigue, extreme thirst, and bloat). I don't get noticeable cravings, but the aversions are brutal. The whole first trimester of my last pregnancy, from about week six on, even the thought of some of my favorite foods was enough to turn my stomach. My husband asked me yesterday if I wanted sautéed onions with the steak tips he was making and I literally gagged. The smell of garlic (which I usually eat in full, roasted cloves) makes me have to send plates back if we are eating out. If anyone has been to Oahu, the whole North Shore is loaded with garlic shrimp trucks and you can smell it from miles away. I can't even go up there for the first 12 weeks of pregnancy.

5+6 here and the food aversion hit me a few days ago. I have no desire to eat and just thinking about food makes me nauseous. I'm living off bananas and cinnamon applesauce because they are bland. Im only eating because I have to, not because I want to

My first pregnancy I had absolutely none. No food cravings, aversions nothing. This time I've had cravings where I can't eat anything else but that since 4 weeks maybe earlier.

So far zero cravings, allllllll aversions! This happened with DS pregnancy, also. I have to force myself to eat anything at all. Everything sounds gross and will make me gag smelling it or thinking about it!

ThePecks · November 2016

I haven't really had any cravings or aversions per se, but smells are killing me. Mostly I'm trying to avoid overly spicy foods since I've got bad indigestion these days...

splashmountain · November 2016

It's different with everyone. So far, I haven't had any yet this pregnancy but with ds around 9-10 weeks I started hating all meat. Just walking through the meat department in the store made me gag!

I also had a huge craving for oranges last time around 6 or 7 weeks I think. MH came home from work one day and I was sitting on the couch with a bag of oranges next to me and an old grocery bag on my lap full of peels lol

I'm 6 + 4 and food adversions and slight nausea started a week ago for me. Feeling better today though. Praise the Lord!

knit-sew-mama · November 2016

@ThePecks - I hear you on the smells. The litter box for the cat bothers me even a day or so after it's been cleaned. And of course DH is the only one who can clean it now so I feel bad but I keep bothering him about it.

Tonight, apparently.

JAM85 · November 2016

Mine hit hardcore at 6 weeks and had only gotten worse (7w1d now) along with the nausea and throwing up/gagging.literally everything sounds horrible and I don't know if I can eat something until right before I do and then a few minutes later I usually realize that was a mistake. I had this with DD as well although I don't think quite as bad but it's hard to remember.

abmommy15 · November 2016

With my first the cravings started in the middle of the second tri. With this one they started about a week ago. Haven't had true aversions with either but occasionally I will sit down to a dinner that sounded delicious and suddenly it's the last thing I want to eat. I wouldn't call it an aversion though because I will eat it later or the next day. Pregnancy does bizarre things to my eating habits.
