Protein in first trimester??

Question

How much protein is everyone eating in the first trimester? My intake has been low since I've been SO incredibly nauseous all day and all night. 🤢 The food and smell aversions are awful too, so protein is hard to come by lately. Just curious if others are in the same boat?? Hoping to be able to eat more normally once I'm past the first trimester! 🤞🏻

Answer

I’m in the same boat. First trimester is just survival. I count it a good day if I’m able to eat and keep down all3 meals lol

Answer

I’m surviving off of all carbs right now. It’s the only thing that curbs the nausea. It’s all about survival and what you can keep down during the first trimester.

Answer

Protein makes me sick, the thought of meats and eggs make me feel like I will vomit. I've been having fruit smoothies in the morning with Greek yogurt and some peanut butter to up my protein intake since it's unlikely I'll have much throughout the day. I've also been ok with beans. Beans in veggie soup has been tolerable for me.

Answer

Can’t handle eating meat at all right now or eggs. To supplement I have been doing protein shakes with almond milk, peanut butter and yogurt. Also doing snack with peanut butter like apples or celery if I can stomach it which varies day to day.  My doctor loves that I do my protein shakes I try to have one to two a day.

Answer

Ive been eating protein bars in the morning for breakfast.  Honestly that's about it 🙈

Answer

I can’t eat a thing. Everything is gross. The only thing I can stomach besides crackers are fruits and veggies. I got a vanilla and flavorless protein powder and make fruit/veggie smoothies.
