What is/was your pregnancy food aversion?

[MissClarke86]

I'm just curious. The only thing I can't think of without wanting to hurl is southern fried chicken wraps! It was one of those meals we cooked quite a lot around the time I found out I was pregnant, and for some reason the thought of it now is bleurgh.

I also, bizarrely, can't think about playing PokemonGo without feeling ill. I think it's a motion sickness thing, but again it was something I played a lot a few weeks ago. Very strange!

I went of chicken. The thought of it turned my stomach. The minute DS was born I needed chicken. DH brought me a hot chicken & stuffing sandwich with loads of mayo & salt when he came back in the evening to see us.

No food. But l went off tea and coffee and Immediately loved both again when baby came each time.

Pregnant with DS 1 - I took an aversion to tomatoes whether tinned or fresh (v difficult as pasta was one of our staple meals) - even seeing a tomato sitting innocently in the fridge made me want to hurl.
DS 2 - coffee.

[Womenareliketeabags]

Cauliflower with DS. Raw, cooked, the smell, the thought, it being cooked were all awful.

This pregnancy no food aversions!

[foxessocks]

Mushrooms and tomato ketchup. Both times!

[iklboo]

Oh, I also went off broccoli. I've never been able to eat it the same again, except tender stem.

[Alicekeach]

Coffee - I love it normally.

[BonesyBones]

Currently 18 weeks pregnant and have gone off all meat and anything tomato based or cheesy. I can't even cope with the smells. It's making eating very difficult. Milk is also making me feel very sick, despite craving it constantly.

[Captainkanga]

Yes to southern fried chicken. Can't get enough of it! I've resorted to making my own out of cornflakes and oven baking to ease some of the guilt also fajitas - can't get enough of them!

I've gone off veggies apart from cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, Cooked onions mushrooms and peppers, plus anything on a Sunday roast. But ONLY on a Sunday roast. Can't face broccoli etc otherwise at the moment. so weird!

I usually love curry, but I haven't been able to eat it during either pregnancy Chicken tikka masala was my first meal when I got home from the hospital at 4am after having Dd best curry ever!
This time round I still can't stomach curry, but the other thing I'm not really enjoying is any kind of meat - which is devastating because I'm a real carnivore usually!

[alphabook]

Feels like everything at the moment! Anything remotely spicy, sauces, vegetables, tea, and fish. I already don't eat meat. That basically leaves fruit, carbs and dairy! I didn't used to eat much dairy but I've started eating more just because there's so little I can eat at the moment.

[Leviticus]

Loads. Tea, both times and I couldn't look at or think about fizzy drinks, literally had to look the other way in the supermarket.

Tea and poultry are very common ones I think.

[AliensInUnderpants12]

I don't remember going off of anything with DS, I did crave cheese though, any type but especially cheddar cheese 😋

I went off tomatoes with DD and couldn't eat our normal meals like spaghetti bolognese, or lasagne. That was unexpected! I craved watercress and spinach with DD, but only in the first 6 weeks or so.

[daisywhoopsie]

Pre-pregnancy I loved oranges and mayo not together. I can stomach an orange now but they certainly aren't my first choice anymore. As for mayo, I can't believe I ever liked it.

[Chinks123]

Pizza! I couldn't even look at one, I have no idea why, and the thought of eating it did make me be sick one day

It took me a good few weeks after the birth to be able to enjoy it again. (Probably a sign to lay off the carbs)

[PickledLilly]

Last time sandwiches and pizza, this time red meat.

[MalbecAndLindt]

Most food eggs, fish and tea definitely though. Normally drink loads of tea so that was difficult for me. Developed aversion to eggs 2 days after the BFP, 10 weeks now and still can't think about eggs without wanting to vom except in cake

[paddypants13]

Pork, both times. Poor dh made me some in a sauce when I was pregnant with ds . I took one mouthful, couldn't even chew it and promptly threw up everywhere. Grim.

[MessyBun247]

Chicken, any veg (especially mushrooms which I usually LOVE), tea and coffee.

[Moonrocks6]

Tea for me too. Tastes like fish.

[DarylDixonsDarlin]

Eggs the first time.
Chicken the second.
Both eggs and chicken the third time, as well as milk/creamy stuff.

All the above babies turned into children who love both chicken and eggs

[livelyredjellybean]

Lamb! Went through a phase where I couldn't eat anything sweet - slightly awkward working in a chocolate factory. Still cannot drink squash. Also can't tolerate fruit juice without getting an upset stomach.
