I felt this 😭 I can’t figure out what to eat because everything I think about makes me want to throw up. Went through this with my first as well, I’m 8 weeks now and I’m miserable

Think about how a little baby eats: little bits at a time about every 2 hours throughout the day or they cry and scream and are miserable. That’s how you have to think of your needs right now. This stage of pregnancy will really help you understand your newborn screaming for the boob or bottle even if they only ate 45 minutes ago. Be gentle and kind with yourself. It’s just a different way of eating. Try to priotize protein in whatever form you can get down. I found little “charcuterie” meals often went down easier than a “traditional” like meat and potatoes meal

I am gonna screenshot this message it’s very helpful I’ll look at this every day to remind myself be patient and understand the journey takes patients and love and to be gentle with my body thanks girl it’s hard for us to remember this during pregnancy when we’re in so much pain 😂

it absolutely is hard and it can be very challenging to have to literally hit the ground running already right at the beginning of pregnancy changing something you have to do every day even when baby is only the size of a seed.

Something that can help a *lot* of women is to eat and drink immediately upon waking or at least within 20-30 minutes. Often something simple can help crackers or toast to start. Then maybe try to get in some protein like eggs, peanut butter, etc.

Eating more slowly can also help. If that means a few granola bars that you take down nice and slow along your commute or just a a you start your day that can work.

It can help to you remember that you and your baby are on a unique journey together and all you can do is adjust as your needs change. Planning ahead becomes much more a thing of the past in some respects in pregnancy, which is exactly what it’s like having a new baby. You are mostly responding to things as they happen at first.
