morning sickness friendly meals. please help

[qazxc]

please help with meal ideas that are quick and easy to prepare and non odorous as i suffer badly from morning sickness. any suggestions greatly appreciated.

dominoes!!

we had a lot of ready meals or sauce poured over meat dishes when my morning sickness was really baad.

worst thing was bringing up a dominoes pizza almost whole though, and haven't had one since!

I normally cook everything from scratch but couldn't stand up long enough or bare it to do that and tinned ravioli, soup and microwaved baked potatoes saved the day.

I was quite sensitive to odours as well - so I went down the cold food/ small but frequent meals route (the same food smells more when it's warm). Fruits, cereal and milk for breakfast. Salads for lunch (with chickpeas, hard boiled eggs, croutons etc). Previous day's leftovers for dinner (kept in the fridge and taken out an hour before dinnertime to bring to room temperature) eg curry and bread/ rice. And loads of mid-meal snacks :-) Hope this helps and good luck!

Tortilla wraps with grated cheese
Lots of potato based meals: baked with beans, cheesy mash, corned beef hash and spaghetti hoops
Fruit
Ice lollies (not a meal but better than nothing)

Looking at that list of food that sustained me and my DS's I'm amazed they are such robust fellas. Good luck. One day it will be a memory. :)

sorry Dominoes isn't the best help, is it?! :o

as others have said, potatoes are good - baked potato with cheese sustained me for the whole of the first 16 weeks of my 1st pg. Sadly I was violently sick at even the thought of potatoes this time round, until about 16 weeks

rice/risotto is good - get a bag of frozen chopped onions, then you don't need to spend time chopping veg.

boiled eggs on toast were good too.

cheese toasties.

whatever you fancy at the time, I found snacking best, crackers and cheese, fruit (melon in particular)

and CHIPS

Potatoes, pasta anything that doesn't burn when you vom it back up freezing cold apple juice really helped to DON'T EAT DORITOES they burn like hell xxx

Mini cheddars, potato waffles and baked spud with cheese when feeling adventurous (after about 16 weeks). That was it.
Amazingly, DC both turned out apparently normal and eat loads of green veg (they do both LOVE salty foods though....)

I found vacuum-packed two-minutes-to-cook fresh pasta good, with some pesto stirred in just before serving. There's a limit to how much you can puke in two minutes, at least.

When my mornig sickness was really bad I could just about manage:

Jacket potato plain with margarine (the smell of butter made me heave)
Plain roast chicken and mashed potato
White toast
Ready salted crisps
Plain biscuits

I am 20 weeks, so the memory is pretty fresh!

I subsisted off:

Cereal and milk - lots of types, but mostly sugary sweet stuff
Toast with a bit of butter and honey
Bananas dipped in peanut butter

That's about all I ate for 3 weeks.

Anything frozen that you could just tip out onto a baking tray and put in the oven. Minimal standing up required and no smells as it's frozen.

PS lemonade ice lollies were a favourite snack.

I lived on evening meals mashed potato and on a good day topped with some grated cheese, found that at lunchtime i wasn't so bad, so tried to eat a bit more then. As for breakfast i tried cereal, fruit and fibre i think was ok, but did see it again a few times! As someone else suggests, ice lollies seemed good too! Know this feels horrendous now, but when dc arrives, it will all be a distant memory.x
