Thread for pregnant food.
Last night, I needed bread and butter pickles with dinner. Then afterwards I had some fudge with peanut butter.
This morning, all that sounded good was a slice of banana bread toasted with butter.
I want to like salads with chicken, but the thought has me 🤮. Not sure what I'll do for lunch. I might do an orange chicken bowl from Panda Express but get steamed veg instead of rice. That's reasonable, right?

I haven't had any strong cravings which is kind of sad, I just need to eat ALL THE TIME. Which is also hard because I have more aversions and less options.
I do keep having random thoughts about Pizza Hut and Burger King, which is very weird because I haven't had either since I was pregnant with my daughter and couldn't eat them anymore.

I haven't been eating very well lately. The past 2 days I've had the runs and lots of gas/cramping. And nothing sounds good lately so I have to force myself to eat. Like last night for dinner was an apple with peanut butter and then my H made himself chips and cheese and I had a couple of those before I felt nauseous.
This morning I had part of a bagel and couldn't finish my half caff coffee.

Yesterday I made vegetable soup and it was amazing. I am eating it for lunch today its going pretty well. But after dinner last night I needed Ice cream. I went to Dairy queen and got a salted carmel truffle blizzard. I was the most satisfying thing I had all week.😀 My normal strawberry blue cheese almond salad is currently not edible

I’ve not been eating very healthy because I want all the carbs. I still don’t want anything sweet, so I have zero cravings for ice cream, cookies, brownies, cake, etc.
I’m doing good with meat. Sometimes I’m ok with eggs and sometimes not. I was doing good with salad, but in the last week they don’t sound good.

I’m pretty off chicken right now but red meat is ok. Veggies are fine for me, fruits I’m finding aggravate my stomach. I can’t do sweets at all Cheddar jalapeño bagels with lots of cream cheese and sparkling water are my current craving. I’m only a cold cereal eater while pregnant, and that’s back in full force, although sometimes the sweetness is too much.

Nothing sounds appetizing. Even reading this thread. I'm struggling with meal planning because just thinking about food turns my stomach. I have to eat or I feel worse so I've tried to make good choices

When not pregnant I looooove carbs and now it’s been what my stomach rejects pretty immediately. So that really makes me sad. And I usually love zucchini and dry heaved when H made them for dinner the other night.

I find that what sounds good one day is gross the next. Making meal planning difficult.

I pretty much have zero desire to cook or assemble food, but will pretty much eat something if presented to me. Bonus if it comes swirled on top of an ice cream cone, haha.
The exception was the "maid-rite" loose meat sandwiches my H and FIL prepared on vacation. I almost gagged. 🤮

I have been craving really basic kid food like blue box mac and cheese, grilled cheese and buttered noodles.
Unfortunately I am having major aversions to salad, which was my go to packed lunch during the week.

Currently I am laying in bed desperately wishing I had some bacon. Which is sad, because we have no bacon. And, I'm in bed.

Well, I'm 5 weeks today and this morning I didn't want anything for breakfast. I made myself eat an egg and cheese sandwich, and I feel better now. I didn't think the food aversions were supposed to start this early

I didn't think the food aversions were supposed to start this early I’m in this boat too. Nothing sounds appetizing right now, but I force myself to eat so I don’t feel sick. I’m looking forward to the days when I have some cravings.

@ges food aversions were one of my first clues I was pregnant. It was so bad around 5 weeks. I think bc of my super smelling nose. After like 3 weeks I could finally eat eggs again though! Aversions suck

I am really into tomato based things this week. Lasagna sounds great. Tomato based soups. Ravoli with marinara. Pizza. Give me all of the red sauces.

I just ate an embarrassingly large about of Pirate's Booty cheese puffs. No regrets.

I barely ate real food today. Just some fruit and a ham wrap. Just picking at food throughout the day.
