And in the blink of an eye, I am documenting another food round-up for my first trimester. I can’t believe how fast time is flying. If you missed the announcement post, yes I am pregnant with our second child! We’re beyond excited to complete our family and watch Willow fill the role as a big sister.
I wanted to document my meals just as I had done the first time around. There is A LOT after the cut. I hope it is helpful for other plant-based/vegan mamas. You’ll notice that things start off regular and suddenly my food preferences take a drastic change. I’ll make a note below… nausea is no fun. But I tried my very best to eat well and of course, taking my vegan prenatals to cover my back as I get through the messy first trimester. This is a very real look at how all over the place the first trimester can be. But I wasn’t too worried when I was craving Taco Bell and fast food because I knew it wouldn’t last forever. (And it didn’t!) My meals got progressively better after the dip, and you’ll notice. (Yay for eating spinach and beans again!)
As always, follow along on Instagram for more plant-based food inspiration. xx
OKAY. Here’s where the shift happened. I was eating great from weeks 4-6, but the end of week 6 took a turn for the worse. I couldn’t stomach a lot of meals… ugh! Very limited color… basically carbs and white/tan foods with an attempt at eating veggies with it. Time for some real deal first trimester foods…
Side note, note pictured: copious amounts of vegan Taco Bell. I just forget to get pics because I scarfed it down. Ha.
Eating has been getting easier again – weeee! Definitely not craving fast food and plain/unseasoned food as much. THANK GOD.
Hey! As always such delcious food & everything is so balanced. I’ve never tried Trader Joe’s chcolate ice-cream. Looks like I need to try it. I also am going to try your bagel with cream cheese & cucumber.

Hey Tracey! Thanks so much for all the love on these posts. I am so glad you like them!! The Trader Joe’s chocolate ice cream is incredible… and I am not a chocolate ice cream girl normally (I almost always go for vanilla if I had to choose between those two) but it is THE REAL DEAL! I also think you’ll love the cukes with cream cheese. Very addicting. Haha! Enjoy. xo
