Anyone else having a hard time wanting food?

I love food. I had no problem eating tons with DD. BUT this time around, I can't ever think of something I really want. I will cook dinner & barely eat it, even if it sounded good 10 min before.

I want to be friends with food again!

Big fat NO.  I am pretty much always starving these days!  I keep busy so that I don't eat!

I usually feel like I am hungry, but I never am hungry for anything specific. Nothing sounds good to me!

I'm always hungry, but I just can't eat. Just about everything i look at or smell makes me nauseous.

i want to be friends with food again too!

Sometimes I'll make a huge meal that I'm excited about, and then want nothing to do with it.  This happened a lot in 1st tri, and occassionally does now too.  I'm also waiting for the super hunger to kick in.

I feel the same way! I am either staving and nothing sounds good or I try to eat b/c I NEED to eat and it tastes off. Somehow I am still gaining weight though!

I am too.  I'm always hungry, but I nothing sounds good and everything seems to make me nauseous.  Can't wait till this part of the pregnancy is over.

I have had the exact same problem. I will be starving ask the hubby to go get me something specific when he gets home take 2 bites and not want anymore. I haven't gained any weight and just waiting for that extreme hunger to hit. People that didn't know I am pregnant have actually asked  me if I lost weight. I am so jealous of those of you that have a baby bump at 16 weeks.

I do

I was starving for most of first tri, but the past couple of weeks I have just not been hungry.  I still eat to get all my nutrients, but I'm by no means starving.

Learned the hard way, that if I don't eat, I will throw up..

I've had the same problem my whole pregnancy. I never had morning sickness or strange cravings but I went from really loving food and eating to having to force myself to eat. To make matters worse, I'm 17 weeks and haven't gained any weight , so my dr asked me to eat more and DH has taken it upon himself to make sure I am, which only stresses me out about food even more.  I found that if I just eat whatever sounds good the minute it sounds good, it's better for me than waiting for a meal and I have started stashing Ensures at home and work for any time when I know I should eat but don't want to. Those work better for me than meals in most cases and at least have some healthy stuff in it.

yes! Im hungry all the time, and sometimes I know what I want.  But I have these really frustrating phases where I dont know what I want to eat.  Its like Im having a craving for something, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what it is, and nothing else sounds appealing.  It is VERY frustrating!
