I’ve been having really bad food aversions for the past week and feeling shattered.
I can think of food I would actually like to eat today - for the first time in days! Is it normal to come and go?

Live this question!
Yes they come, some stay for a little while, but they all go is my experience.
I like to believe it is your body telling you what you need for your child.
For example everyone told me coffee is very bad for you when pregnant.
One morning I had a splitting headache, never had that before. I stumbled to the coffee machine, like a robot. Drank coffee, and the headache went.
Turns out coffee narrows your veins. Pregnancy widens them. And a little narrowing was needed.
I couldn't eat anything, except walnuts, it was all I could keep in for months.
That craving stopped immediately when the baby was out.
The vitamins in them replace the ones in fish, to which I am badly allergic.
I would say find what you do want, and listen to your body. You will be amazed!
Good luck!
