Pre pregnancy, I loved food…and I was hoping pregnancy will be just an excuse to eat more food since dun they say “you eat for two”
BUT
now just the thought of food makes me sick, sometimes I end up being so hungry that I eat only to throw up sooner than later, or getting so nauseous that will not even want me to think about that particular food anymore.. I dun crave McDonald’s fries per se but thats one thing I am able to keep down.. there must be something in that salt!!!
when did your cravings kick in, if any??? please tell me you CAN enjoy food during pregnancy.. its totally heartbreaking for me to stay away from all the good food in the world
during my first trimester I had problem with almost all kinds of food I remember I ordered mcdonald’s coffee at work one day and at that time I did not know I was pregnant and boy that coffee made me sick. Once someone forced me to have milk shake after which I had horrible indigestion and heart burn and it lasted for like 3-4 days. The only thing I liked during my pregnancy was fruits and my mom used to send a box full of fruits everyday :jano: now my daughter likes fruits alot esp apple !
GTG in the first trimester, I thought I would never enjoy food again. I really could not imagine it. It sounds like such an exaggeration, but it wasn't at all. And all I could think is, I guess that will free up a lot of time, given how much time I have spent thinking about and eating food in the past :p Plus I thought it would be so easy to lose weight now.
But don't worry, the desire for food will come. I think I wrote once on here about my first craving (I think halfway through my second tri). I was meeting with a student in an area where some students eat lunch. Wafting toward me came the aroma of fried foods and ketchup FROM A TRASHCAN. OMG I wanted burgers and fries with ketchup so badly. I could not believe TRASH was appealing to me. LOL.
And wait till you're nursing, inshAllah! Those cravings are WAY more intense. :D
alirght girls i am taking your word for it.. come second trimester, I want cravings!!! I really want to be able to enjoy food!!!
if not, then I will just have to wait until after the birth of the baby to start nursing and enjoying food!!!
for now, I have a list of food aversions than the cravings.. how sad!!!
Sahar.. I so know thats not an exaggeration especially when I have my favorite yogurt right infront of me and I want to eat it so bad but I just can't... i m too nauseous to even enjoy that let alone risk the vomit!!!
I am having cravings for kofta salan, pulao and chicken roast with chaat and coca cola today...but noone here to make it all for me so I just ate a piece of bread with cheese.....
1st trimester was exactly the same for me. I couldn't eat without medicating myself with anti-emetics. I actually lost weight.
Now in second trimester, 95% of the nausea/vomiting is gone. I haven't had any cravings at all though I am way hungrier then I used to be pre-pregnancy
hang in there! :)
...first trimester is for feeling sick and throwing up
.cravings start 2nd trimester.
..by third trimester you,ll be too big,but enjoying food,
and after delivery you can't eat everything and anything if you feed as the baby cant digest it...
first pregnancy ... zilch nausea and perfect appetite.. actually bhooki billi i was... but i never craved anything.... i sooo wanted to cuz you always hear bout the pickles and the imlis... but nopes... i craved nothing
2nd pregnancy.. nausea and craving... explain that! wahts teh use right? ive craved the following so far: olives, mcfries, ice cream of any kind or even ice lollies, caeser salad, mars bar, and counting.
im in my 2nd tri.. nausea isnt so much unless i smell something wayyy strong like koftay today... god i lost all appetite for te rést of teh day. i just have an issue burping!
I had some cravings when pregnant....but they weren't daily cravings...I would be doing something totally unrelated and the thought of a certain food would make me want it right there and then...
I craved McD's filet of fish a lot of times...
I remember one day in my 7th month I wanted the dunkin donuts double chocolate donuts... I especially went out to get those....I had two I guess ,or maybe three that day...but fell very sick...:(
non stop vomiting...had to be admitted to the hospital for severe dehydration...
btw...I hate those donuts now...!!
It was never one consistent thing...various things at various times...ah the joys of being pregnant...!!...:D
U just hold on there GTG i am in mt third tri and today i just had my breakfast tea and ruscake...and now after an hour i am craving for fry egg with toast and i am still thinking to make it or not coz its my extra craving but i know i will going and make ittt.......:(
I don't want to eat anything except french fries or chawal....I don't like to eat salan or chicken/meat....
I'm glad that my husband cooks food for himself...and he makes the dishes I like...like mattar wale chawal or white rice...sometimes I go to bed without eating anything....I know it's stupid but I can't eat...
