Anybody else going through protein aversions?

Question

I’m 12 weeks tomorrow and I can’t eat any protein no matter how much I try!! I get two bite into chicken or eggs or any thing and the whole meal is ruined. I am nauseous the rest of the day. I will say I’m able to eat greasy cheeseburgers lol! Trying to be extra healthy though bc I started overweight.

Answer

I’ve had what I like to call pregnancy-induced vegetarianism both pregnancies. Meat makes my stomach turn 🤢

Answer

Me! I can't even look at or smell meat without feeling queasy, let alone eating it. I'm almost 8 weeks, this aversion started a couple weeks ago. I've been trying to eat lots of dairy, beans, peanut butter, etc. but I still feel guilty for not eating meat!

Answer

I don't like anything. I can stomach crap foods though like chicken nuggets and toco bell.

Answer

I’m 9 weeks and I feel the same right now! Chicken sounds really gross to me! But a cheeseburger...now that sounds delicious.

Answer

Yep same issue here! I’m even finding mushrooms off-putting 🤢 I usually have meat in my diet though so hubby has been trying to find creative ways of changing the flavour so it’s not as bad with sauces, stir-fry’s etc so I can still get the nutrients.

Answer

Getting there :( husband mentioned hamburgers tonight and I almost hurled.  I’ve been able to eat everything except most veggies... again.  I had horrible aversions with my first.  Eggs for sure, veggie straws, broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, apples, butter in anything.. stock up on whatever you can eat.  Oh, and don’t bother trying protein chips and pretzels they have on Amazon.  They’re literally the worst texture in the world.  Awful with morning sickness.

Answer

I do not like meat at all right now

Answer

I have aversions to pork right now and sometimes beef. Thankfully I can eat chicken. Try eating some nuts or nut butter. It helps if you don’t try to eat the meat straight. I make pastas and add meat and veggies to it to help soothe my stomach.

Answer

I used to be such a carnivore but I’ve really gone off a lot of meat, especially like plain natural cuts, which used to be my favourite. I am eating a lot of nuts still though, mostly pine nuts and hazelnuts. And my mum makes me these things I call energy bars, which are ground up seeds and nuts and dried fruit with coconut oil and cocoa powder. They’ve been a real life-saver as you can just nibble on small amounts but they give you a lot of nutrients and energy.

Answer

I'm the opposite all I'm craving is meat!
