This doesn't have anything to do w/the baby's tastebuds.  Make sure your are drinking a TON of water if your indulging in mexican and cheeseburgers, since they are very high in sodium...

Are you sure the dizziness is related to what your eating?  It could be an isolated problem, and have little or nothing to do w/your diet.  Ask your dr. about the dizziness....although it is fairly common at this point in pregnancy.

Be carefully to get up slowly, and when you bend down, you must bend w/your knees and not your back.  Don't let your head go lower than your heart, as this will cause dizziness.

I had really bad all day sickness for the first 20 weeks, I'm now 26 weeks and still sick on ocassion.  I know if I eat to fast or get up to fast after eating I feel crappy, and sometimes it just happens, especially if I eat something that will give me heartburn later. Eat slow, watch what you eat and see if you eat it and get sick often after eating that, then avoid that food for awhile.  And if you are still feeling icky let your doctor know.
