pregnancy eating habits passed to your kids?

Question

I'm not a picky eater at all, however this pregnancy has turned me into one. I'll go far enough to make a meal and then when I'm ready to eat I don't want it anymore. And sometimes dinner is the only time I'm actually hungry bc I pretty much "picked" my way into a slight  starvation mode...

Just wondering if you were picky or had cravings during pregnancy did your child end up with similar traits or cravings/likes?

Hope It's just pregnancy problem, and that I don't have a picky eater child!

Answer

I've been the same way. It's like all day my stomache says not yet, not yet, nope, none of that and then at 8 pm it's like ok go! More food! More food more food!

Answer

I was picky when i was pregnant and now my own son is more adventurous with food than me. It's always just important that once you start introducing foods to your baby that you have them try everything. Even if it's something you don't personally like. The more foods and flavors you get them use to, the better eaters they turn out to be down the road.

Answer

I was a super picky eater while pregnant. Immediately stopped eating meat...and funnily enough it continued after pregnancy and I eat a plant based diet now lol I couldn't eat dairy and only ever wanted Mexican food. My daughter is the BEST eater ever. Loves salads and veggie and avocado and basically anything that's not typical kid food. It definitely did not vary over with this girl lol

Answer

My mom ate a lot of fruit with my sister, she ended up loving fruit. She ate a lot of veggies with me, and i LOVE veggies. And she ate a lot of icecream with my brother, and he eats chocoate icecream for breakfast with a cocacola 😷

Answer

I have 3 kids and I'm always this way until around 20 weeks and then my eating is back to normal.  Not sure how far along you are but it could pass. The only thing I noticed is with my 2nd son I wasn't into vegetables like I normally am, he's 2.5 and won't touch vegetables, even as a baby with purees before they know it's a 'vegetable' he just wouldn't do it lol
