Food Aversions or Cravings?

Question

I’m 7 weeks 5 days and today I realized that I’m not a fan of meat any more. I can tolerate in things but don’t like it on its own. My husband made boneless chicken thigh and roasted Brussels sprouts (usually one of my favorites) and I could barely stomach either. 
I’ve been craving Mac and cheese so my husband made me some last night but I wanted to make it with hamburger and onion to add more to it... the beef was fine in the Mac and cheese since there was only a little.
What is everyone else’s experiences?

Answer

I was vegan when I got pregnant this time, but after around 8 or 9 weeks, the thought of tofu just made my stomach turn. I could NOT tolerate ANY of my normal protein sources. I could only stomach fruits and vegetables. So I started eating a little bit of fish and then slowly incorporated meat into my diet. At first it made me sick but now it seems to be ok. I’m 14 weeks and I still have aversions but it’s not as intense as it was. Also I crave McD’s nuggets like DAILY but I almost never let myself have them because they are junk food LOL.

Answer

My first trimester was miserable. I was constantly nauseous and had food aversions to just about everything. I literally had a break down one night because I missed food so damn much 😂 2nd trimester was ALLOT better when it came to food. I'm now at 32 weeks and the only 2 things that I really liked before I got pregnant and now avoid are the pizza lunchables and game meat (deer, elk, etc.)

Answer

I’ve been starting to have food aversions as well. The only thing I really want lately is pasta, especially Mac n cheese as well. Most things that I would normally eat are sounding or even tasting awful the last week.

Answer

I like to make soups/chili’s...I usually use ground chicken if I’m adding meat to chili or chicken thighs if making soup. I eat mostly plant based with some lean proteins...
I have been craving tuna this pregnancy like crazy for some reason - so I made a batch of tuna salad with veganaise, Dijon mustard, some red onion and celery and just kind of add a little scoop to a salad for lunch. (I only use skipjack line caught)
I also tolerate salmon really well. I don’t really eat beef or pork, so I haven’t tried them yet this pregnancy...but the thought isn’t very appealing lol
There are veggies that are high in protein. And beans are a go-to for me also ☺️ if you can’t stomach meat!
