I lost my taste for coffee during this pregnancy, too. At first it smelled/tasted awful, now I can tolerate it but just have no desire to drink it. Pregnant taste buds are so weird.
Ugh, I remember early in my pregnancy when brewing coffee made the house smell like tuna. That was a sad day. It eventually passed so there's hope yet!

Lol. My sympathies, AR.
Years ago H starting making my coffee in the morning. He doesn't drink it (crazy, right?), but was trying to do something nice for me. It was a bit strong, but I like it on the bolder side so I said nothing. I noticed, however, that I was becoming jittery at work--a problem I never had before. I finally asked him how much grounds he was using for my standard two cups in the morning. Turns out he was using enough to make a FULL POT of coffee. No wonder I was having the jitters!

It gets better.
I couldn't tolerate coffee in the first trimester. It tasted soooooo bad to me and kicked off a bunch of other things becoming horrible. Raw vegetables especially were teh suck. I couldn't even open the refrigerator without gagging because everything smelled awful.
All I wanted was brownies, apples, lemonade, and buttered pasta.
Things improved in the second tri with coffee and a few other things, but vegetables were heinous the entire time.
I still can't touch coffee. The smell of it made me sick for months! Now, I can tolerate the smell, but the thought of drinking it makes my stomach turn.
