Hi

I'm 30+6 and I am never hungry. In fact I have lost weight but my MW is fine with is it as when I conceived I was 16 stone so apparently I have alot of padding!

I can't be arsed to eat. I have to force myself to eat most days.
The last time I saw my MW she was a bit course with me because my urine sample showed something called a keytone level which indicated I wasn't eating and she told me to nibble if I am not hungry but I must eat but I can't find my appetite. Nothing appeals to me at the moment. I did suffer from morning sickness between week 6 & 18 but then it went away and now it has come back again but it's mild and in the morning for about an hour.

I think it's hormones.

Hi. My last pregnancy I was hungry mornings and evenings particularly and snacked throughout the day. But this time I seem to have lost all hunger and feel as though I'm eating for the sake of eating to be honest. I'm about the same stage as you (19+5). Don't think it's anything to worry about just try to eat what you can when you can xx

I only eat because I have to, v v v rare to feel hungry just feel sick too much. ( I miss being hungry and liking food)

I have been like this since 17 weeks (now 19+6) I am making myself eat regularly but am finding I am eating junk rather than proper food. It doesn't help that I feel too tired to cook when I come in from work most days and DH isn't always about to make something for me.

I find that I'm really hungry first thing and mid-morning but the rest of the day I just seem to be picking at things as I don't have much of an appetite at all. I've always had a healthy appetite so it feels a bit strange not being able to eat big meals but you soon get used to it, although it is frustrating when you sit down to your favourite meal and can't even eat half of it :roll: I haven't put on any weight yet but midwife isn't worried at all as baby is growing well so must be getting enough from my reserves xxx
