Dont even have the energy or appetite but know I need to eat to try to feel better. I think I’m exhausting cereal, English muffins and saltines!!! Any quick ideas that preferably don’t involve cooking??
This thread is so necessary right now! I'm glad you started it. I'm currently on saltines. Apples help. That's about all I ate when I was pg with DD. I am considering just buying a lot of those boxed pasta meals because DH can handle making them by himself if I get too bad to cook.
Protein is supposed to help. But I know sometimes it’s just whatever you can get down. I’ve depended on Boost nutritional drinks in the past. We had fish sticks, potatoes, and apple sauce for dinner tonight. I’m already thinking about maybe carry out broccoli cheese soup tomorrow night.
Just yesterday I found this juice at the supermarket and I loved it: apple, kale, pineapple, ginger and peppermint. It really eased the nausea enough so I could have a proper diner.
I have a recently diagnosed allergy to wheat, yet all I want are saltines or pretzels (the bagel w/cream cheese sounds really good too) ☹. So I am still looking for a good alternative for me. However, my best friend said watermelon helped her. So maybe I will get some the next time I am at the store.
Re: Easy meals/snacks for extreme nausea??
It really eased the nausea enough so I could have a proper diner.
I can eat any citrus when I’m nauseous. It just makes it worse. (And normally, I love grapefruit juice!)
But my nausea has been pretty mild, and it comes and goes. As long as I eat something every 2-3 hours, I’m doing ok.
I CANNOT eat any citrus.
