If you had food aversions in pregnancy, when did they pass?

[Sparksi]

I’m 6+4, since 5+5 I have been feeling exceptionally sick. I haven’t been sick but a couple of really bad dry heaving spells.
One thing I am struggling with is food aversions. I can’t open the fridge without wanting to vomit, and the smell and sight of food in supermarkets really turns my stomach.

Currently there isn’t one consistent food that I feel ok about, it really just varies. Even the thought of the wrong food is enough to make me retch. Full fat coke helps if I sip it, but nothing else seems to- not ginger, not peppermint, nothing! Totally alien feeling to me as I usually have a stomach of steel and never feel queasy at all.

I’m grateful to be pregnant and hope it’s a very healthy sign but it’s not the nicest symptom and is draining my energy and affecting my mood.

If you had food aversions/nausea, when did it start and how many weeks were you when it stopped?

With both of my pregnancies it started around 6 weeks. In my first pregnancy it lifted around 13/14 weeks and by 16 weeks I was fine with all foods.
With my second pregnancy I felt sick until 23/24 weeks and I still couldn’t face apples until after DC2 was born - we both love apples now and probably have one every day.

During my first pregnancy I was worried about not eating, but my GP told me not to worry and apparently an adult liver has about five years of nutrients built up in it (GP said that, but I haven’t found any research myself on it). I also took prescribed anti-sickness tablets which did help a bit.
