I couldn't stand the taste of hommus before I was pregnant. Now I can't get enough of it. I'm sitting here having hommus and lavosh crackers for lunch!
Were there any foods you couldn't stand and the LOVED when you were pregnant?

For me, it's Marmite! Could not abide the stuff before - the smell of it when DH would have some on his cheese on toast made me gag. But now....different story! I think it must be the real savoury aspect of it. I have to be in the mood for it, but a piece of cheese with a covering is yummo!
I was the same with olives. Loved them while I was pregnant but can't stand them when not
Tuna! and the funny thing - now that my daughter is 9 months, I still like it! Before, it used to make me gag!
Same!!:):
I used to gag at the thought of broccholi since being pg with Annabelle I really enjoy it!
milk! I never drink alot of milk, makes me feel sick, just have a bit in my coffee usually and thats it, but when pregnant:o I drank litres of the stuff a day!! iced coffees, milk shakes, out the bottle :lol: I would CRAVE it!! now I cant abide it anymore again!!
Olives! But I have liked them ever since my first pregnancy.
I stopped having sugar in coffee when I was pregnant the first time too.
I also develop this weird obsession for parsley in iced water. I don't know what is is about the combination but they do THINGS to me :lol:
plus carrots. I hate carrots normally, but when i'm pregnant I eat them raw, unpeeled, straight out of the bag!
And lettuce. Ice berg lettuce which I normally thing is boring, becomes the most delicious thing - go figure.
mushrooms!!
I never liked bananas but since my first pregnancy I started eating them and still do now!
I recall never liking cucumber until i was pregnant for the first time... ever since i still kind of like them... especially on fresh bread with salt and pepper.
Not technically a food but I didn't like lavendar much until i fell pregnant... and when preg i couldn't get enough of it! even in cheese... lavendar bits in cheese... yum!
same here, i dont hate milk though, i just never really drank it.:
Pork.
When I was pregnant with DS2, my DH suspected that I might be pregnant before I tested due to the fact that we went out for dinner at our local RSL and I turned to him and told him I wanted the pork ribs for dinner. The look he gave me was priceless. I hate pork and I especially hate ribs... gross!
Oh and pork crackling. I actually used to get grossed out over people eating it and would tell them so. But when pregnant with DS2 I craved it like crazy. I can't eat any of the above things since having him though.
chicken!
i have been vegie for more than 16 years, but the smell of chicken is so appealling at the moment. i can't eat big chunks, but eating any is a big step for me.
anchovies
Ah yes... kate just reminded me... i was vegetarian for years before being preg for the first time... then i started to eat fish and chicken... the smell of red meat never tempted me though... it actually turned me off even more... i suspect i have issues digesting mammal protein.
I hated orange juice, carrots & tomatos until I was pregnant. I have had them since having DS but they don't have the same appeal now.
I absolutely hated bacon until I fell pregnant with Juliette & even after I still enjoy it.
I have always hated Strawberry Milk - than when i was pregnant i woke up one morning and told DH i really wanted some strawberry Milk - he just laughed at me and didn't believe me until i went to the servo and got some strawberry milk and drunk all of it - for the rest of my pregnancy i loved it! than i had Miss B - DH brought it for me and i almost vomited at the thought - things went back to normal and to this day i hate it again and can't stomach the thought of it!
Avacados with DD1 - couldn't stand them before that pg and couldn't get enough of them while I was. Still cannot do without them so that has stuck with me.
Asparagus with DS - exactly the same story - couldn't stand them before and then I couldn't get enough of them and still can't get enough of them.
I am thankful to those pregnancies for introducing me some of the yummiest foods ever created :)
I reckon I do too. From when i was little, i never liked eating red meat. The smell of red meat was worse when i got pregnant than before. But chicken...:
i used to hate soda water and could never understand how anyone could drink it ... now i drink it straight from the bottle!!
I was the same with soda water and I still love it now. And cold drinks. Not actually a food, but when pg with DD, I had to have drinks COLD with a tonne of ice in it, Before being pg, I would drink tepid drinks, but now I still love cold drinks.
In the last week I have been eating these round things called 'Peaches' huh! I have always seen em at Coles and thought 'erk I'd rather buy a rockmelon' never had a peach before in my life! I walked past em last week and the smell made my mouth water..so there I was at the checkout with a basketfull of these things babbling to the 18 year old girl about how I'd never eaten one..
This pregnancy I can't handle fried capsicum, when I see the slimy skin it makes me squirm so I have to stay away from it
A few things with me...
Disliked Olives with a passion couldnt stand thier salty taste now I have to have them in my saladds and on my pizza
Caramel not a fan before I was pregnant now I cant get enough
and Milk I hated Milk before I was pregnant and now I could drink it by the carton load
Bananas for me too.
Made me gag before pg, and make me gag again now. But I was eating 3 a day when I was pg. Go figure!
Hated mushrooms but loved them when pregnant with DS#1 and still do.

Dianne
