chicken noodle soup.

so the only thing i can  keep down and eat is chicken noodle soup or bread. is this bad? i cannot for the life of me eat any meat what so ever. i can't barely eat the chicken chunks in the soup. meat makes me throw up and gag. will chicken noodle soup not be enough for the baby? I'm taking vitamins and iron pills always on time everyday. but thats the only thing i can keep down and eat. should i try something else. i have a doctors appointment tomorrow morning would nausea pills help me eat more things?

I'm 10 weeks! I've been so sick and tired. But they say crackers and all that but try salty meats bacon like nibble on that to see first! The doctor will prescribe zofran it took the edge off but it's different for everybody

yea i can't even smell meat lol. my babys dad his mom was cooking sausage the other morning and the smell alone had me in the bathroom for 10 minutes vomiting. I just need something to help me go back to eating meat or something. soup doesn't seem like enough energy for me but it does hit the spot and the only thing i can keep down.

At this stage my doctor said that the baby doesn't benefit off of what you eat. But your health in general. So it's ok if that is all you can eat. I could only drink powerade for the first 10 weeks. Baby is healthy. I couldn't even take my vitamins. My doctor said it was ok that early in pregnancy.

i feel you. last week i was fine but this week i cannot keep anything down. i tried eating home made burgers steak mash potatoes anything even fruit i cannot keep down. i love corn and nope that doesn't help either. I'm hoping i stay like this just for the first trimester i don't think i can handle this through my whole pregnancy. lol

You can get protein in other ways. Try eating almonds or cashews or peanut butter? Can you eat eggs? As long as you are taking your pills you will be fine but talk to your doctor at your next appointment.
