Mamas - did your taste buds change after birth? Is that even possible? My ENTIRE life I could NOT handle spicy food in the slightest and after my 3rd baby I love spicy food.

Yes :100:! I did the opposite. I used to love spicy and now I can’t handle it at all. I also like lots of old man candy now. My ex said all my favorites were my FIL’s favorites (so a man not in 1945) lol. That switched over during pregnancy and never went bank to normal lol

Tastebuds change in general but I think the hormones can help. I hated anchovies most of my life, half way through my second pregnancy, I was craving pepperoni pizza with extra anchovies, and haven’t looked back lol. I’m a fiend for the salty little suckers
