Protein?

Question

Anyone else struggling to eat protein? I feel like I’m not eating enough but I always feel sick trying to eat it. Shakes are a huge no, I couldn’t keep them down when I wasn’t  pregnant 😂 
I can eat sweets no problem though🤦🏻‍♀️

Answer

I told my doctor meat is disgusting to me now and she said you get a free pass in the first trimester 😜 she suggested eating eggs, yogurt, and nuts instead and said in the 2nd trimester things will taste and sound better again

Answer

🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️ me girl!! Haven’t had the appetite for meat this last week or so and it’s been bothering my husband, but I can’t help it! Fruits, veggies and junk food, yup I’m good, meat/protein, no way! 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

Answer

Don’t forget beans, grains and nuts also contain protein.  Try eating them. x

Answer

Me too! Oddly just at night. So I have an egg for breakfast and lentils or some meat for lunch. Evening protein makes me want to gag

Answer

I feel like I wrote your post lol. Almonds have been what I have been eating per my doctor! They help with nausea and have protein. She also said boiled eggs but I have not been able to do that lol. I dont want any meat and all I want is sweets! Like any time of day lol

Answer

Also has anyone purchased/read The Whole 9 Months? It’s a cookbook and nutrition guide from first trimester on. Great for the new vegans here

Answer

You could make protein brownies, cookies, or muffins. Flapjacked is an awesome brand. Kodiak cakes is also another protein brand, but their added sugar is high

Answer

Same!! It seems I’ve turned vegan for the time being lol I haven’t touched meat in weeks!

Answer

I am having the same issue... major food aversion to protein foods 🤢

Answer

Ugh. Same. Better this time than pregnancy number one - where I kept basically nothing down the first trimester except for ice cream - but protein smells awful now. I’m just relying on my memory that last time I loved meat again come the second trimester.
