2nd Trimester

Anyone else have a meat aversion?

Lately I can't eat meat.  In the last week, I have made steaks, chicken breasts and pork chops.  Everytime I get about 3 or 4 bites in, I start gagging and can't eat any more.  I can still eat processed meat no problem though, go figure.

  • Yep, ever since about 6 weeks. Mostly red meat.
  • Nope not me, if it stays still on the plate I'll eat it :-)

  • Yeah, I haven't been able to eat meat since like week 8. Sucks, it's almost all meats too :( Although, I did eat a mighty tasty venison shepards pie.

  • Me. It's been like that from the start. It's gotten slightly better, I can eat about half of a steak now before I start gagging, before I couldn't eat it at all.

  • Yes yes yes. Since week seven meat is almost completely unappealing. Especially poultry.

    BTW, not sure what you mean by processed meat but that phrase makes me gag. All I can think of is cafeteria lunch style taco meat and/or SPAM. Gross!


  • poultry. just can't get a break. :(?

  • It was really bad around 9 weeks, I couldn't even walk by the meat section at the store.

  • I just had this conversation with a friend, I just can't get over the aversion to any meat products. I can eat a small amount before I feel gross and full!

    SPAM?  No way!  Ick!  LOL

    No, I meant more like cold cuts (Subway), sausage, hamburger, etc.

  • I"m not sure if it's an aversion so much as I just don't really need or want it right now...
  • only to chicken.

  • I'm glad to hear everyone else feel this way! I was a vegetarian for 12 years and have eaten meat now for about 4 years, but since getting pregnant I just can't stand it. I am finally at the place where I can stand to cook it for DH, but I still won't eat it. It disgusts me!
  • not me, this baby girl loves burgers and steaks.
  • I can only eat beef.  Chicken turkey etc makes me get sick. :( 
  • I am right there with you!

    I can down a hamburger like a champ... chicken breast- no chance!

    (This from a girl who didn't eat red meat before pregnancy)

  • Yep.. To all chicken and any meat that isn't cut up really small.

  • I've been like this since BFP. I don't eat pork anyways, but i'm really missing steak and chicken. Funny thing, I can have fajitas at the restaurant and fast food.
  • Can't do chicken ~ makes me want to loose my lunch even thinking about it.  But i have no problem eating beef which is wierd b/c i've NEVER been a beef eater.   
  • I couldn't eat poultry for the first trimester, same with the first pregnancy.
  • I could not be happier to be in the 2nd trimester.. I wasn't able to eat any meat in the last couple of months.
  • Oh my goodness i cant stand meat... I used to love fish,chicken, and a lil read meat but oh lord not now..
  • Yup! Right there with ya! I can't do chicken. Hamburger is ok...steak is 50/50.
  • No, thank God.  Still love meat, I am such a carnivore.

  • YES!!! The only time I got sick was over a gorgeous pot roast I'd made in the crock pot for like 10 hours.. it smelled so good, too! Right after I ate it, I had to push my hubby out of the way to get to the bathroom! Since then, I'll cook chicken breasts, tacos and I suddenly feel really sick. I hate that!! I love chicken!
