Smell of coffee

I'm only 4 weeks pregnant and since finding out I'm pregnant I can't stand the smell or taste of coffee it makes me want to gip. Is this normal for so early on? I'm usually a coffee drinker but I have been cutting back over the last few months while TTC as I know it's not good but since being pregnant I can't stand it at all and don't miss it either. Has anyone else been the same this early on? X

Was my first sign when it tasted awful, drank tea from that moment on with all three pregnancies. Other things tasted and smelt awful as well.

I became incredibly sensitive to smells early on in my first pregnancy, so much so my DH opened a can of tuna in the kitchen and I threw up in a different room when I normally would never have been able to smell it from there.

I also went off the smell of coffee even more so than I already had, tea, herbs and spices, cigarette smoke even more so, and a whole host of other things. Especially meat cooking. Usually I'm fine with it but not in pregnancy.

This pregnancy I can't stand the smell of oil or raw potatoes cooking.

I couldn't stand the smell/taste or sight of chicken from 4 weeks Confused I was sick every single time I was anywhere near it!
But now it has made a perfect little nickname for our DD haha

I completely went off tea and chicken.

Thank you your comments make me feel better. I didn't know if it was too early for going off things or if it was all in my head.

I haven't found anything else yet that I've gone off but I have noticed a heightened sense of smell x
