Honesty in the first trimester... Just eat what you can. Worry about "proper nutrition" in the 2nd and 3rd. For now just drink plenty of fluids and take your vitamins and eat what/when you can. You're baby will take what it needs and be just fine. I personally lived on fruit smoothies and pop tarts and cereal and Popsicles lol. Then in my 2nd and 3rd I got to eating more nutritious meals.

Food aversion is a very common symptom. I haven't really had any cravings. And my whole first trimester I was grossed out by most food smells/taste
