Constant Nausea. What to eat???

Question

Help!!! I’m 6 weeks and the thought of almost every food known to man makes me gag. I want so badly to feed this baby extremely well, but I can’t stomach anything. The only things I crave are mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese. What do I do????

Answer

First, congrats!!  I’m also 6 weeks (today), woo!
My nausea occurs in waves, and while I am lucky enough to stomach most foods, EVERYTHING tastes sour after!  It’s awful!
My bff recommended eating watermelon, as it helped ease her nausea.  I’m sure other melons would work well too, I just don’t care for them.  Plus it helps keep you hydrated which is an added bonus!
She also recommended “Preggie Pops” sour hard candies...you can find them on amazon.  I know candy isn’t *real* food, but it might help take the edge off of your nausea enough for you to eat some good-for-you things!

Answer

Just try to eat what sounds good to you. I find that if my husband prepares or heats up the food for me, I am more likely to eat it. I just have to stay out of the kitchen and away from the fridge smells. I am 9 weeks and have been eating pizza, Mac and cheese, chicken enchiladas, and cheese ravioli.  Watermelon helps sometimes but I've have strong aversions to most fruits and veggies. My doc says just eat what you can for now and take your prenatal vitamin. Preggie pops work for me in the morning and ginger ale helps at night.

Answer

Congrats on being pregnant! First of all, your baby is getting everything he/she needs straight from your body. You have nothing to worry about... seriously! Even vitamins- I had to stop taking them until 16 weeks because my nausea/vomiting was severe and they would make me feel even more sick. I'm currently 20 weeks and doing great. Eat when you can and try to stay hydrated. I could barely look at water without feeling queasy as it tasted like metal to me. I opted for Gatorade or juices sometimes. 
I know what you're going thru all too well:(Macaroni and cheese was literally the only food I could eat until I had a rather unfortunate incident involving some kraft mnc and my kitchen sink (I'll spare u details). Regardless I ate it in small portions 3-4 times a week until the "incident". Sucking on ice pops and Gatorade ice cubes helped me... the ice cubes were especially good when my vomiting spun out of control and I couldn't keep anything down. Out of everything I tried I would say dry Honeycomb cereal helped me the most. Also soft hot pretzels were great whenever I could get one. Hang in there ... it gets better❤️
