TTMA cravings and aversions

[Quinstar]

Nothing. Nothing sounds good. Well, steak, I've been craving steak but aside from that I really hate all food.

I've been forcing down corn flakes, applesauce, and string cheese. Maybe tapioca pudding and ginger ale. Basically anything yellow/white colored. I'm so sick of yellow food...

[muskiefan]

With DD and DS I could eat the heck out of "hint of lime" tortilla chips.
So far, nothing has struck my fancy.

On the other hand, just thinking about bell peppers makes me want to hurl.

This is true all the time for me. Bell peppers are the worst.

Last time I wanted tangy things - citrus, fruity candy, hot wings, anything with a zing. My usual love of chocolate as a dessert was gone completely. Not like I wouldn't eat it, but I'd choose tangy candy over chocolate every time, and that's unusual for me (plus I don't eat a lot of sweets.)

This time nothing, yet. No aversions or cravings. My sense of smell is definitely heightened, though. I can smell even a pee diaper from across the room.

My DD is basically made up of airheads (the candy). I haven't had one since I was pregnant with her. This time it seems like salty food is going to sit better. I have been eating all of the Asian food and salt and vinager chips. Today, however, my mild nausea when my stomach is empty seems to have progressed to full blown morning sickness and nothing sounds good, despite the fact that I have been trying to eat enough to calm my stomach all morning.

With DS I ate ice cream and drank milk constantly. So far, this little one seems to like saltier foods - popcorn and pretzels. H asked me this morning if I wanted him to get me a donut, which I declined, and is highly unlike me.

[elissamarie]

Everything is gross and sounds awful at this point, especially meat and ice cream.

I try to give in to any cravings I have as long as they aren't too weird. So far they've mostly been Lucky Charms, fried calamari, and carrots with ranch.

I've also craved ketchup and gravy but have NOT eaten those.

I'm not there yet with either cravings or aversions. Give me a couple weeks and I'm sure I'll be back with an update. I think it all hit me around the 6 or 7 week mark with my first pregnancy.

#1 - nothing yet!

[obi]

Fries and gravy are everything right now.

[mikaela20]

For me it's a day to day. Nausea hits me most in the evening so dinners are hard. I seem to like carbs and cheese the most right now.

[beyoncepadthai]

With DS I craved bananas and tacos.
Right now I'm not really craving anything specific, I guess anything that doesn't give me heartburn. I'm having an aversion to lunch meat. Specifically the hard salami DH keeps waving in front of my face. The smell is making me nauseous. How many times do I have to say "No thanks I don't want any."?

[beyoncepadthai]

obi fries and gravy sounds like heaven!

[danvers]

Nothing I have to make sounds good. The very act of preparing food makes me nauseous. i seem to have an aversion to cooking.


I think I'm craving saltier things (I'm so nauseous I'm still not sure) and hot, melted cheese. So basically I'm eating a lot chips and queso. I'm sure babies can be grown on cheese.

I think I've ate my weight in pb&J here recently.

I'm not that sick anymore but I seem to get intensely hungry out if nowhere and if makes me feel week.

I haven't really been having any. I have been eating a lot of cheeseburgers though. Girl needs her meat.

[Quinstar]

@justinslovo, I am so jealous. I begged DH to take me for steak last night. But the nearest steakhouse is two hours away. And it sooo does taste better at a restaurant, hands down.

[glb30]

Quinstar 2 hours away?! I wouldn't survive without steak lol. Where do you live?

Eastern Colorado, there's not much around. Nice restaurants are either 2 hours to Denver, or way into Kansas. The nearest walmart is an hour and a half

[zengal]

Well I got those hot and spicy cheezits. I've never met a cheezit I didn't like, but they just tasted very flour-y to me. And everyone wants to stop at Chipotle and I can't think of a single thing that I would order right now. Something is wrong with my tastebuds.

[sillygirl44]

With my DS I craved chef Boyardee and tuna fish. With my DD I craved everything sweet. With this one I've been craving fried clams.

[moutonrouge]

I've wanted a lot of super salty foods. So I keep waking up thirsty. I need to cut down on that a bit.

Burgers, coffee, and milk are current aversions. There are times when nothing sounds good, but if food is put in front of me I'll eat it.

[mikaela20]

Ooo you reminded me moutonrouge I cannot drink or smell coffee. I've been craving orange juice in the morning.

Today I had to have a turkey sandwich. had to. I was conflicted about deli meat being bad, so I microwaved the shit out of the turkey to kill any germs.

It was delicious!

Opps are we supposed to avoid deli meat? I just made a turkey sandwhich today.

You're supposed to heat it to steaming when pregnant. Sometimes it can contain listeria. Hot dogs too.

ETA: don't panic, I'm sure you're fine.

[kristhegirl]

glb30 cheeseburgers are my usual PMS craving. Specifically the junior double cheeseburger from Sonic.

[Girlymama79]

Mexican. Give me all the Mexican food.

Get nasty chicken eggs away from me. Duck eggs are ok though.

[amandamh2]

My neighbour had me over for supper yesterday and I was glad I wasn't nauseous during the meal and was able to eat a small amount since she doesn't know I'm pregnant yet. The only thing that sounds good right now is chips, which is also what I craved with DS.
Coffee is pretty much out, I can only handle about a quarter cup before I start to feel sick which makes me so sad.

I'm so jealous you have a Sonic! I went to one once on a road trip from Houston to Michigan. It was amazing.
