Ooo, when I was pregnant I had nine months of EXTREME nausea, from the second I opened my eyes until I went to sleep (around 7 PM!). My OB/GYN said to eat anything... even chocolate cake, but the suggestion made me start gagging right in her office!

I wanted no food except grapefruit and stinky cheeses - two things I would never eat when not pregnant. (Not coincidently, I think, my daughter loves both.)

I gagged at everything, including lettuce. Two smells in particular that were awful were coffee and garlic - things I normally loved - they both smelled like dog poop! When my poor husband would try to have some dinner, like opening a can of soup, I had to go in the bedroom, close the door, and stick my head out of the open window. I even gagged drinking water, and brushing my teeth.

You will be over this in a few weeks, no doubt. It's actually a very good sign that the baby is healthy! Good luck with finding things to eat... it's worth it in the end.

Cheers, from

aww i really hope i dont have 9 months of this.
Man...I love garlic!!!! I cannot imagine not having those yummy pickles which were suggested to me by my sister in law who ate them all the while she was pregnant.

grapefruits will never interest me...I think i had to many sour experiances with them as a kid...thanks mom

My best friend (who is due in 9 days!!!) went through an awful period of sickness. All she ate was angel hair pasta with a tiny bit of sauce or just butter, and fruity popsicles.

The only thing that made me sick when I was pregnant was eggs, other than that I could and did eat anything.

Especially hot fudge sundaes, oh my goodness, were they ever good. The doctor finally put me on a diet with my daughter, I had gained over 36 pounds by that time.

Try some gingerbread snaps for a sickly belly or Vernors pop.

for instance, Garlic Pickles, olives, refried beans, chips, subway and sprite. I pretty much could live off of just those things right now.

stuff I dont even wanna think about...chicken,pork,anything italian, cheese sauce and peanut butter

What are you craving or despising?

In college just before my period I would eat garlic pickles and dip them in yogurt. They all swore I was pregnant. LoL
