Answer

Your baby will get everything it needs. Our bodies put the baby’s nutritional needs before our own- so we get whatever’s left over.
Take your prenatal and eat what you can but don’t stress too much! I lived off uncrustables and Gatorade my first trimester and my baby is perfectly healthy!

Answer

Take a prenatal.

Answer

Try a healthy smoothie from a health store. That’s what I loved on the first two trimesters.

Answer

The nutritional needs in first trimester for baby are actually super low so you should be just fine. Some women can’t eat anything On account of hyperemesis and their babes turn out just fine. 
The food aversion (vegetables for me) lifted around 14 weeks and then I was able to eat a fairly balanced diet again. You can ask a dietitian for advice - many grocery stores have consultations for free!

Answer

Why don’t you just get your own protein powder and add fruit/peanut butter/chia/etc and make your own smoothies?
