This lasted all the way until close to 5 months. I would eat healthy whenever possible but it didn't stay down most of the time. Poor baby girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1012078 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 02:22:48 +0000 FlyingSquirrel 1012078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Total crap. I joked that she's definitely DH's baby, because the only things she'll tolerate are junk that I never normally do. My staple diet was pizza, mac &amp; cheese, and cheese curls when I was able to eat much of anything at all. Much of the time it was crackers and ginger ale. I'm having trouble recalling a single vegetable that stayed down during my entire first trimester...though I made a few valiant efforts with generally disastrous results. </p> <p>My nausea finally abated somewhere between 16 and 17 weeks, and I'm slowly reincorporating more healthy foods (and cutting out the junk). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006976 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 19:17:16 +0000 MrsH 1006976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pretty okay. More French fries than normal but otherwise ok. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006971 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 19:12:55 +0000 yin 1006971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a lot of aversions in the first trimester, and baby mainly craved carbs! Luckily I didn't pack on much weight and have been eating healthy after the first trimester wave hit. I was also diagnosed with GD early at 18 weeks and have been eating like a healthy nut ever since. I miss carbs and sweets, but I'm thankful that I am eating well for baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006863 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 18:06:25 +0000 filly 1006863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my entire first trimester i ate complete crap. NOT JOKING. anything that would stay down and sadly it was all junk food + ice cream + carbs carbs and more carbs. </p> <p>then my 2 / 3rd trimesters made up for it bc i had NO crap food cravings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006857 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 18:04:14 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1006857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>First trimester, great. Second trimester, less than stellar. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006821 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 17:42:28 +0000 delight 1006821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh it was utter crap. I ate carbs, carbs and more carbs and still managed to lose 10 pounds. Dinner was either pizza, KD or grilled cheese, much to DH's delight. The only good food I ate was strawberries, sliced on top of my heaping bowls of Cap'N Crunch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006772 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 17:16:14 +0000 MamaBehr 1006772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was terrible. I can't tell you how many Freebird burritos I ate in such a small span of time (of course this is now a huge aversion!) I am now eating much better, which started at around 15 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006733 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 17:03:46 +0000 immabeetoo 1006733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>crap, worst I've eaten since freshman year of college. i focused on just getting calories down and worried about nutrition later! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006725 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 17:01:06 +0000 Cherrybee 1006725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ate so much carbohydrate in the first tri - I gained 8lb!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006722 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 16:59:46 +0000 MrsKoala 1006722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Honestly, I ate crap. Carbs, carbs and more carbs because that is all I could stomach. I'm slowly getting back into salads and better foods now that I'm almost 15 weeks but I still don't want some healthy foods that I used to love. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006720 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 16:59:16 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1006720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ate Chinese food for weeks. It was all I craved and apparently, could stomach. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006712 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 16:56:09 +0000 Boheme 1006712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was just focused on keeping things down. I ate tortillas, goldfish crackers, and Cheerios for weeks! Not good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006710 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 16:53:05 +0000 MapleMoose 1006710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1st trimester = whatever I could keep down. Nutrition was not a priority. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006701 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 16:43:02 +0000 runsyellowlites 1006701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Umm I've done decently. Even with G when I practically lived in the bathroom I tried to eat well.. it just all came back up. lol. It has been more difficult with P &amp; this time though b/c I'm exhausted and really don't want to even get up to grab a larabar from the pantry some days! ugh! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006697 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 16:40:13 +0000 MrsF 1006697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I couldn't keep anything down and lost weight :( All I could eat were Pilsbury crescent rolls. Yum. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006683 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 16:29:26 +0000 JessKas 1006683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was SO bad. I could only keep down things like crackers and bread. I tried to eat healthy foods, but it just didn't work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006681 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 16:28:54 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 1006681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Between the nausea and complete lack of appetite, I lost 8 lbs... Luckily she took what she needed, though I blame myself for the white spots on her teeth! (demineralization). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006669 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 16:23:48 +0000 lemondrop 1006669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Absolute crap. It was with C too, luckily he turned out awesome, so I'm sticking with my multi-vitamin and whatever I can keep down until this passes.</p> <p> Early on, it was the best it's ever been. But at this point I'm just in survival mode on bad days. Good days I try to eat well, but bad days like yesterday, well- I ate a cupcake. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006652 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 16:16:36 +0000 Bao 1006652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the beginning good. Now I'm eating fried cheesecake. Last night I had fried ice cream. Hey I figure as long as it stays down... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006631 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 15:53:12 +0000 travellingbee 1006631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hahaha. I laughed when I read this title. I was way more concerned with keeping anything down to worry about nutrition. So um, not very good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006624 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 15:47:30 +0000 Dandelion 1006624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good for S. Right now for this one I could be doing better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006613 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 15:36:41 +0000 autumnlove 1006613@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was really good but I got diagnosed with GD at 6 weeks. You should indulge in some comfort foods because you work out so much! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-nutrition-in-the-1st-trimester#post-1006611 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 15:34:45 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 1006611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like crap right now and I'm hungry. I know I should eat healthy but I just want to eat comfort foods. </p>
