Dislike protein, how?

No protein (eggs, meat, fish, prawn, beef) taste or look appetising to me. I feel nauseous looking at them and is not consuming them. šŸ˜¢ I'm currently 8 weeks. Any advice fellow mummies? I'm afraid baby doesn't have enough nutrients.

Baby is not taking nutrients from you at this stage yet. Donā€™t worry! Just make sure youā€™re taking your folic acid and drinking enough water daily. Alternatively, you can consider drinking pregnancy milk.

Some brands have chocolate pregnancy milk too šŸ˜ one day a cup is fine.

I'm 7 weeks and I find them nauseating, cannot tolerate the smell of raw meat either. I take soybean and tofu to make up for the protein, dark green leafy veg for iron. Hope this helps!

thank you for listing the alternatives. sadly, I don't take any of them šŸ˜… am I picky eater to start with. and pregnancy aversion is making is alot more difficult.

If you're ok with it maybe have it spicy? I eat mala kind to hide the taste and I works for me. the next best alternative for me was Chinese soups
