I was sick until my 4th or 5th month (and still have occasional bouts, ESPECIALLY after I brush my teeth-eek!). I ended up losing 12 lbs the first trimester, b/c so many smells and flavors repulsed me. I'm nine months now (only 2 weeks and 6 days until my due date-woohoo!) and I've only gained a total of 8 lbs. I STILL can't eat mushrooms, chicken, and mayo (three of my favorite things normally).
What I could eat/drink:
Decaf hot tea
Pedialyte popsicles
V-8 Splash juice
Whole wheat bagels
Steak (Filet Mignon was the only food I really WANTED during that time)
Crackers
Dole Fruit Gels (jello cups with diced fruit)
Peanut butter
Good luck to you, and talk to your doctor. They can recommend a nutritionist who can work with you to figure out what might help with the situation.
