Aversion to meat, could it be my prenatals?

For the last month I can't eat any red meat and port can be challenging. I can't even put it in my mouth. The smell and sight of it make me ill, but I've always been a steak girl. Could this be from all the iron in my prenatals??? Oh I'm 10 weeks.

Thanks

Wow- I cannot wait to see what your baby's gender will be!!! You'll have to remind us about your turn-off to meat when you get the gender scan and share the results.

I AM 25 WEEKS W/ MY 3RD GIRL. I COULDN'T STAND TO COOK OR EAT RED MEAT W/ ANY OF THESE PREGNANCYS.  THIS ONE I CANT EAT RED MEAT AT ALL. I CAN EAT A STEAK WITHOUT ALOT OF FAT IF IT IS SMOKED ON A GRILL. I ALSO CANT STAND TO EAT SHRIMP OR SMELL IT COOKED OR NOT.GOOD LUCK.

I think it has to do more with baby than the vitamins. Some people just crave meat, others cannot stand the sight of it, especially when it is raw. When I was pregnant with my girls handling raw chicken sent me gagging into the toilet.

They say meat aversions usually mean girls and carnivorous pregnancies mean boy! We shall see!!!
