Food Aversions?!?!

Question

I am 5 weeks and 5 days pregnant and so far I have had the hardest time with eating. I am wanting to eat healthy for my baby but all I crave is greesy fattening foods like pizza, hot pockets, tacos and ice cream. I haven't been giving in to most of my cravings and instead have been trying to choke down broccoli, chicken and other healthy things for baby and me but it's difficult. Any body have tips and suggestions for me I'm trying not to gain a bunch of weight since I was chunky before baby.

Answer

Nope, haven't had those yet.  With my first pregnancy I did they were specific to,  grape jam and fudge stripped cookies. I also had a specific craving of my husband's pizza.  This time though I haven't had any food aversions but my cravings had been all over the place.  Like yesterday I wanted tacos in the early afternoon but by the time dinner had rolled around I wanted lasagna that I had made in the freezer and I had already got out taco meat and such.  Ugh, I think my first pregnancy was a bit more easier lol where cravings are concerned.

Answer

I try and just go with moderation and try to get enough nutrients. I tend to think that some cravings is your body telling you what you need. And I keep exercise up to offset all the ice cream I crave!
