Im 6 weeks and I haven't eaten anything all day but half an apple and some chips. I feel hungry but whenever I get up to go make some food the thought of eating makes me nauseous. Haven't puked yet but I can't stomach food.
Currently have chicken in the crockpot for dinner and the smell is making me want to puke. I can't imagine touching it. Ugh.
Update: DH just moved the crockpot to the garage.

this was me with DD! In the beginning I just ate what I could when I could!
Now I seem to be ok but definitely have adversions mostly and can only eat small meals

Yeah, just eat what you can. It was so hard, b/c DH would ask me what I want to eat, but I always told him I don't know whether I want to eat that until I'm there and it's in front of me! I just ate a lot of bland carbs. Hang in there!

I just ate whatever I could in those early weeks. Not healthy at all, by some days it was potato chips or vanilla wafers.

@FaithFertility: @snowjewelz: @jhd: It was never this bad with my first pregnancy. I had some food aversions before today but always managed to eat something substantial. Ugh

I ate a lot of random foods - whatever I could shove in. Pop tarts and bagel bites and carnation instant breakfast. I went back to all of my childhood favorites. Hang in there

@artsyfartsy: Don't cook anything that smells strongly of anything--or that takes more than 10 minutes of cooking time. Eat fast. Small portions. Leave the room after.
That's all I could do in first tri.

Honestly? I haven't managed to eat. I'm barely scraping by. What has worked for me: Popsicles, String Cheese, PB&J, Mozzarella Sticks, Pizza (only on occasion), Pop Tarts, Muffins, Smoothies.
And that's it. Not very healthy, huh?

I ate a lot of white rice and cereal when I was pregnant. I ended up losing like, 15 lbs during my first trimester. But then I gained it all back when I felt better 2nd tri and ate everything in sight.

Bagels. Lots of bagels and other carbs. You gotta do what you gotta do.

Just nibble constantly on whatever you can keep down. The baby is going to siphon off whatever it needs from your body's own stores, so its just a matter of keeping yourself going. Try getting a Jamba Juice smoothie - something cold and nutritious and substantial - and keep some crackers or bread around. Crystallized ginger slices helped sometimes with the nausea too.

Bagel bites, Cheetos, pickles, Caesar salad.
Have to eat snacks all day including the second I open my eyes. If I get hungry I get nauseous.

I didn't eat much. I ended up loosing 5 pounds in the first trimester. Whenever anything sounded good I ate it. I mostly ate oyster crackers, pasta roni, and strawberries.
