I am 10 weeks and still feeling really rotten. Nothing appeals to me, but especially not starchy things like bread or crackers. I need to eat, though-I'm already down 10 lbs from aversions amd throwing up.
So what's on your go-to list of pregnancy foods? Bonus if it includes protien.

I'm 6w4d - today I feel decent. the last 2 days were horrible. I've been into cereal, pb on crackers, and fig newtons. I managed to eat a normal lunch today (leftover pasta) but it changes by the hour.

Right now, yogurt with granola, eggs and veggies. I don't want to see another salad for as long as I live, I am starting to hate eggs, and I have another week of black bean burger lunches to look forward to. The yogurt I can take or leave.
Gestational Diabetes. It takes the fun out of eating. Four more weeks hopefully of this and then I am eating ALL THE CARBS.

I managed to eat a little better this time around (in general--I still eat a lot of junk) but with E, I craved meat. Like, I ALWAYS wanted a cheeseburger. I also disgustingly ate a lot of things like Spaghetti-os and Chef Boyardee because I so rarely had an appetite...when I felt hungry I needed something I could eat ASAP before the feeling passed. Ha!
ETA: Oh, and nut butter. All the nut butter.
Good luck, mama...and, by the way....OMG OMG OMG CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!

I've been eating relatively healthy recently (almost 26 weeks now, so long past the nausea phase thankfully). I've had various obsessions with this pregnancy and they have included peanut butter nature valley bars, snapea crisps, bagels with cream cheese, and of course, chocolate.
In first tri, I was having trouble with most meats so I think most of my protein was coming from greek yogurt (I like plain with fruit, but I let myself have some of the sugary/fruity ones as a treat), cottage cheese, and nut butters. Oh and ice cream has protein (or at least I tell myself that).

I think the only things I could eat at the point were grilled cheese and bagels with cream cheese or Wavy Lays. Not really helpful with protein.

Anything and everything that isn't good for me. I am hungry all the time and veggies are just gross to me still.

At the beginning I was also eating a lot of bagels with cream cheese. And Stouffer's frozen macaroni and cheese.
Now in addition to chicken nuggets I'm eating anything I can dip in ranch dressing, so I'm getting veggies in that way. Especially cucumbers, carrots and cherry tomatoes.

@LovelyPlum: congratulations!!!
Cheese sticks, yogurt and add granola or oats to make it a different consistency. Smoothie with protein powder? Even just chocolate milk or a milkshake would be something if you could handle sweets.

Sugar, bacon, pizza, French fries. I've also disgustingly had a lot of fried chicken and judged myself during it. I was super sick first tri and pretty much just ate cold cereal and baked potatoes and while those both still have my heart, I've expanded my repotoire a bit. I try to eat some veggies, fruit and healthy stuff regularly but on the weekends - all bets are off. Oh well!
