All in the title really!

I use to love a good cup of tea I'd have about 4-5 a day but now just the thought of one is enough to make me heave! 😂

So I'm interested to hear what else everyone else has been put off of since being pregnant!

It was mayo for me, even the sight of it made me want to be sick, a real nauseous feeling. I was back to loving it after, and my daughter loves it, but when I was pregnant it made me feel really sick.

On the other hand, I craved wine gums. A sweet I’m not actually a fan of, neither before or after, I had to have a constant supply and even recall going into lengthy meetings with customers with a bag, because I would get distracted thinking about them otherwise,,😯

Nothing, eating helps my nausea. May have contributed to my weight gain....Blush

I used to love broccoli , i was even able to eat a whole steamed broccoli with my meal but ever since I've fallen pregnant i cannot even stand the smell so my DH cannot have it either. 😁 I hope i go back to loving broccoli once the little one makes their appearance. 🥰

I went off tea and coffee totally (even decaf), it wasn't extreme but I found myself only drinking a third or half a cup whenever I made one. Am back on tea now - probably started liking it again at around 24 weeks ish, and maybe the odd coffee

And I only wanted to eat ALL THE CARBS. Again, better now, but I was eyeing up toast cereal pasta rice all the time til a couple of weeks ago

4amWitchingHour · 23/04/2020 09:23

And chips.

Even the smell of coffee would make me sick, it was awful.
The weirdest thing for me though is that for years I used to drink loads of Ribena and loved Nutella on toast, and the day I gave birth 6 months ago I went off them both completely and haven't touched them since!

Chocolate :( normally absolutely love it - thought of eating it makes me want to gag now. Lots of unopened Easter Eggs :(

Roast chicken. Roast meat generally.

Everything really, but I can’t stand the smell of pepperoni pizza 🤢 my other half has it now and again and it makes me vomit. Garlic bread is a no no and I used to love it. Can’t eat pasta which was my fave meal before too. I’ve lived off fruit especially apples, toast and Jamaican vegetable patties, I hadn’t eaten one since my friends mom made some for me when I was about 17 but I just seemed to really crave them as soon as I was pregnant now I eat one for dinner nearly every day.

Can’t stand meat right now either and the thought of a Sunday makes me gag even though I normally love them. I’m now nearly 14 weeks and the ms had eased a little and I’ve noticed I’ve started to eat a little more than I did x

Chicken and broccli. I used to eat chicken, brown rice and broccli every day (boring I know but was very into my weightlifting) and since 5 weeks it has made me throw up. 24 weeks and still makes me feel sick just the thought of it.

Meat and coffee for me I am basically vegetarian now when I am not cooking for dp

I wanted all the carbs and cheese, lots of cheese Grin
