Cant eat meat.

Hi ladies I was wondering if anyone else feels like they have turned to the vegetarian lifestyle since they have been expecting. I used to be able to eat meat now I am 17-18 weeks and I've become almost completely vegetarian (once in a while eating chicken). I wonder if its normal and if I'm going to be able to eat meat after my pregnancy. Is anyone else experiencing this? Are you considering keeping to the vegetarian lifestyle?

I haven't been able to keep meat/protien down.The worst for me was hamburger meat. Being as I am diabetic my drs have me on daily phenagren so I can get enough protein daily. Its helped considerably. I couldn't eat beef of any kind with my last pregnancy but soon as i had her I was fine.

With my first, any red meat made me throw up, even after morning sickness was gone. But as soon as baby was born, I was back to normal.

I absolutely hated chicken or fish up until a few wks ago, I was able to eat steak though. I used to not eat red meat and mostly eat only fish and a bit of chicken. Now I'm 31wks and eat everything lol

This happened to me with my first. I couldn't even look at meat. But I was fine after she was born.
