This morning I made bacon and eggs for breakfast.
*gag*
I cracked open an egg and it was bloody around the yolk. *shudder*
Totally lost my appetite for anything protein related. Thankfully I have lots and lots of veggies I can cook up.
This happens to me pretty often. Does this ever happen to you? (getting grossed out. not the egg).

Oh yuck! That would gross me out too! Yes, it happens to me. Turkey breast from the store always grosses me out because it has that shiny film on it. EW! With this pregnancy, I have been really grossed out by meat too, which is really odd for me, I normally LOVE steak!
-
Normally, no, but during my first trimester if I saw meat before it was cooked I couldn't eat it. All I could stomach was fruits and veggies!
-
Chunks of meat were my one big pregnancy food aversion. I could handle meat on sandwiches, but something like steak or lamb or anything not paired with lots of carbs? Uggggggh.
-
@Rosie Girl: I'm a total carnivore, but couldn't stomach meat when I was pregnant too! It had to be hidden in a burrito or lasagna for me to eat it.
I was crazy for carbs. So weird. -
@Mrs. Yoyo: Someone told me that if you have a meat aversion you're having a girl. I wanted nothing but carbs and had a daughter
-
Some days I can cook meat (and eggs!) but not want to eat them afterwards and other days I can't handle cooking them at all but I can eat them just fine!
Raw chicken still smells funny to me though. I used to cook and eat chicken ALL the time and now I can't. It makes me cringe. =/
-
@Elonwy: ugh. I can't eat raw chicken if I smell it. Smells really gross. -.-
-
@chopsuey119: It was one of my "omg, I think I'm pregnant!" symptoms because it smelt so weird. I had to get SO to smell it too and figured maybe my nose was just having an off day. But nope... it still smells so funny!
-
Touching raw meat when I'm cooking it always grosses me out because I feel like my hands and everything near the meat is contaminated by salmonella no matter how much I clean, lol.
-
Never!!
Lately tho, I don't crave red meat.
-
@chopsuey119: Ha, not so much here! The nurse also swore up and down that it would be a girl because he had a fast heartbeat
-
Yes! I don't like cooking meat very much but I do because my husband loves it. I usually have a small portion. I have a real hard time touching or looking at hamburger meat. Last night at a family Christmas party my bil spent the entire day roasting a whole pig. I almost cried when I saw it. Then when he is carving it half the family comes outside to eat some of the skin. My husband tries to hand me a piece and it had hair on it. *shudder*
I tried being a vegetarian before and it didn't work out. I think I would be really being a pescetarian.
-
I have wanted very little meat during pregnancy- in fact I must be winding down because I ate my first BLT since getting that BFP months and months ago. Usually I am pretty moody about whether I want meat or not before pregnancy too.
-
I was a vegetarian for more than 10 years, and there are still a lot of things about meat that I can't handle. I rarely ever cook meat myself b/c the raw meat makes me squeamish. I rarely eat large amounts of meat in a single meal, and I often opt for vegetarian meals even at restaurants to this day. I think I'm healthier now for having some animal protein in my diet, but I don't make it a substantial portion of what I eat.
Btw, meat totally grossed me out for my entire first trimester. Even now I've been eating less meat than before I got pregnant. I'm kind of worried about the health ramifications, but I figure my body would be craving meat if I really needed the extra protein and/or iron...
-
Ugh, yes!! I hateee raw meat. Looking at it, smelling it, touching it, etc. My husband LOVES to cook, so our deal is that he cooks and I wash dishes (we rent an older home with no dishwasher). It works for us!
-
@skibobrown: You can always getting protein and iron from other sources! Spinach, nuts, legumes, etc.
I think I have issues with meat because I'm the one who cooks. @lilteacherbee: I don't think I'd have problems with meat if my DH cooked. -
sometimes ground turkey or beef grosses me out...especially when it looks all wormy!
-
Yep, when I have to touch raw meat.LOL I have to wear gloves...ew!
-
I couldn't eat meat during my first trimester. But my non preggo self loves meat!
-
I hate raw chicken. DH can't stand it at all, so I do all the cutting and leaning... but I sanitize and wash everything because I'm so OCD about salmonella and etc.
-
I have issues with eggs stemming from some farm eggs that had an eyeball...that being said I still eat eggs but only from the store. Other meats don't bother me in the least.
-
I had a meat aversion in the beginning. It's better now, although raw chicken still kinda grosses me out but it always has. It's just so shiny and slippery!
-
I usually love love love meat - red meat, chicken, anything. During pregnancy I haven't loved it so much. Red meat grossed me out for a bit - now I can eat it, but just don't enjoy it as much as I used to.
-
Raw eggs always gross me out, especially if they have some whitish stuff near the yolk..
-
I do get grossed out sometimes so I'm scared of what will happen when I get pregnant. Raw chicken breast freak me out, however it is my favorite source of protein so I just have to suck it up and deal with it!
-
Sadly, I can't eat Vietnamese sandwiches anymore because I had one where the meat was really fatty and I completely lost my appetite for it.
-
I HATE dealing with raw poultry. Like, over the weekend we hosted a party and make turkey and I wanted to barf the entire time we were preparing it. There's something about a raw turkey that makes it feel eerily human. *barf* As for eggs, the ONLY time it makes me feel sick is when I crack it open and it's a twin yolk. EWWWW.
-
Not really unless I am already having issues with all food in general.
-
Eww, that is gross. If it's not cooked all the way, like something that is not suppose to be eaten raw, I'll lose my appetite.
