Just ranting - Strong Food Aversion continues at week 13

same here mama to be, I was unable to eat anything other than rice, corn, lotus root soup, porridge, and fruits. I couldn't even drink water too 🫤 my doctor told me dont need to focus too much on stressing about nutrition, just eat / drink what I can, better than eating "healthy" food and end up puking it all out. most important to keep yourself hydrated, and take your pregnancy supplements! my appetite came back at around week 15. seems like it has been weeks since you posted this, are you able to eat more now? no need to guilt yourself, pregnancy is already a challenge, so take it easy and know that food aversion is also your body's natural way of helping you grow the baby safely!

you're not alone in this! I'm still hating and gagging at the thought of food too, which is a very diff me and really hardgoing day to day thing ): vomiting is still there, but less compared to week 5-6 (which i was hospitalised for hyperemesis gravidrum). Every monthly check-up, my weight is reducing. don't feel guilty, you're as important as growing baby! I was assured and comforted by a mom who had it worse than me that baby will still grow (take mommy's body nutrients), though mommy's appetite remains poor! hope this brings some assurance to you too ❤️

Same here… whatever I loved to eat previously just make me gagged now. I always do not know what to eat. My mum and MIL also do not know what to cook for me. It’s really frustrating. Know that you are not alone.

Hey mummy! Hugs! Hang in there! I’m in the same situation as you. Any food smell, smell of oil and grease make me nauseous. I only eat paus/bread and biscuits. I know it gets really depressing but we’re in this tgt!

Don’t be discouraged! A lot told me I would feel better at week 13 too cause it’s the start of second trimester. But I actually only felt better at week 15! It will be better! Hang in there!
