This thread is making me want one now so I will drive the 1 min. to McD's to get one after I type this out. hahah! No - seriously, I USED to think it was SO gross. But since this pregnancy I crave sweets and the sweet syrup somehow makes the sausage oh-so-tasty! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-552143 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 12:44:51 +0000 Dandelion 552143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anagram: they are pretty good! I've eaten them before getting pregnant (and without the gravy, haha) and it's one of the few items I like on the mcdonald's menu! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-552136 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 12:43:38 +0000 Anagram 552136@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@katiew92081: @shopaholic: </p> <p>OMG...sausage McGriddle? I don't think I've eaten one of those in my entire life....but now I kinda want one. Sigh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-552130 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 12:42:27 +0000 shopaholic 552130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@katiew92081: ahahaha - that sounds terrible and fascinating at the same time! hehehe good hubby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-552113 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 12:35:26 +0000 Dandelion 552113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: One day a couple months ago I craved a sausage mcgriddle...with the sausage gravy on top. My husband was so sweet to order it for me and bring it home and it tasted so good to me! I haven't done it or craved it since, but it was so weird! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-552101 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 12:32:01 +0000 shopaholic 552101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anagram: That's funny! ONE thing I can stomach every few days is a Sausage McGriddle from McD's! I know... it's terrible! My pregnancy food tolerances are all pretty unhealthy besides fruit and veggies!</p> <p>@katiew92081: Oh no! No chocolate? That's a sad one!</p> <p>@mediagirl: lol! Sounds like my DH - don't feed baby anything expensive - don't want her to acquire a taste for expensive foods! heheh</p> <p>@spaniellove: Wow! That is a huge aversion that's affected the rest of her life! Crazy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551702 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 09:48:22 +0000 Alivoo01 551702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to be a HUGE fan of steak, but now, I don't ever crave it (poor hubby, he loves steak). All other types of meat has been okay, including chicken. Raw veggies on the other hand have been somewhat of a no-no for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551528 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 08:05:44 +0000 spaniellove 551528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a family story about how my grandmother, who had hyperemesis, had such a strong aversion to chicken in all of her pregnancies that to this day she refuses to allow anyone to cook or eat chicken in her presence. But that didn't stop her kids from liking meat for sure! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551526 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 08:04:37 +0000 mediagirl 551526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I couldn't stand meat for a lot of my pregnancy, I loved shrimp, though. Baby eats everything so, I don't think there's a correlation (we haven't given her shrimp yet. We don't need her tastes to be too expensive for our wallets yet). ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551523 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 08:03:09 +0000 Anagram 551523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I have a meat aversion right now, too. BUT the weird thing is, I'm starting to be able to eat one meat in particular: sausage. Which I didn't really like much before pregnancy.</p> <p>I used to like chicken, turkey, and occasionally red meat. Now I can't eat any of that, but I *can* eat breakfast sausage in all forms.</p> <p>Prettttttttty awesome (sarcasm). My husband doesn't eat pork at all, so that's making it worse. I also tried breaded chicken last weekend (buggalo wing "poppers") and those were fine, but that's because the chicken was disguised. And I can't go around just eating sausage and buffalo wings....lol. Not so healthy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551507 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 07:31:40 +0000 Dandelion 551507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pretty much can't eat anything without heartburn...especially chocolate. I don't think she'll be turning her nose up at it too much when she's older! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551467 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 03:38:22 +0000 lovehoneybee 551467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a total meat aversion that started before I even knew I was pregnant. Even bacon :( </p> <p>I wolfed down a turkey sandwich not long after delivery though! Pregnancy is weird like that but I've never heard of a correlation between meat aversion during pregnancy and having a vegetarian child. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551422 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 00:20:04 +0000 shopaholic 551422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks ladies! I do hear chicken is a pretty common aversion, but I couldn't eat the prime rib from my sister's bday the other night, or much of any kind of meat. It's 9pm and I'm finally forcing myself to eat a little meat in the form of Del Taco Chili Cheese Fries and a hot-sauce laden chicken taco. Otherwise, my main source of protein these days comes from peanut butter. :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551406 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 23:39:00 +0000 mrsjyw 551406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I couldn't stand chicken the enitre pregnancy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551315 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 22:09:51 +0000 heffalump 551315@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only had that in my first trimester. Now that lo is here she really could be a vegetarian..... Except she loves hot dogs. All other meat she hates. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551274 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 21:30:08 +0000 betsyboop 551274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yuck, chicken disgusted me when I was pregnant. I loved steak though, and I never eat steak. LO is only 8 months but she loves chicken! I think it's probably just an aversion. My other mommy friends said chicken during pregnancy was tough for them too. Weird, I wonder why! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551270 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 21:25:03 +0000 Vegmama 551270@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm actually afraid I'll crave meat during pregnancy (I'm a vegetarian). One of my dear friends couldn't even think about chicken during pregnancy ... it took her about 5 weeks after delivery to be able to handle it. It totally went away! Her LO is only 3 months, so who knows if she'll like it or not. Thinking it's just an aversion for you during pregnancy!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551269 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 21:24:59 +0000 junebugmama 551269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Meat made me sick. I couldn't even look at it for most of my pregnancy. My aversion stuck for about 6 weeks after delivery.</p> <p>My guy is 8 months old. Yesterday he ate almost an entire chicken breast (which is bananas for any baby his age), so it really had no effect on him </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551265 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 21:22:41 +0000 prettylizy 551265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was not terribly interested in meat whe I was pregnant either (with the exception of bacon... bacon is ALWAYS good!). My carnivorous ways returned after she war born though, and Prettybaby love Love LOVES meat now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551258 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 21:20:45 +0000 MamaBehr 551258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I couldn't touch any meat while I was pregnant with DD as well! It was horrible. She will be three in March and she is picky about meat but does eat it :) </p> <p>However, when I was pregnant with my son all I wanted to eat was meat! Go figure :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-wants-me-to-be-a-vegetarian-apparently#post-551185 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 20:48:02 +0000 shopaholic 551185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Gah! I'm 35+ weeks and this baby girl STILL does not like when I eat any meat! I've had a strong meat aversion ever since the beginning of pregnancy. I told DH she's probably going to want to be a vegetarian! Every time I have a piece of chicken or ham especially, it takes a lot of force just to swallow! Anyone else experience this? And did your LO really end up not liking meat? :p </p>
