Anyone NOT hungry?

Is anyone else just not hungry?  Every time I try to force myself eat, the idea just disgusts me, no matter what the food is.  But I really just don't want to eat in general. I know baby needs the nutrients, but it all just sounds gross.

I'm in a similar boat. I find myself having to force the first few bites to get past the nausea but it is manageable after that.

Yes, I'm not too bad.  Been eating fairly good for a while now.

Last week I couldn't stop eating and this week it is a struggle to want to eat anything.  Just when you start to get things somewhat figured out they go and change again:)

I'm not really hungry either. No real food aversions yet, but I'm having a hard time finding something that sounds good besides stir fry. LOL. I'm exhausted and lazy lately, so I really just want to go to Mongolian for every meal. Haha.

I feel your pain, everything I used to love is making my stomach turn now. And when I do eat, I can only eat a little before I feel sick. I actually lost 5 lbs, which any other time would make me happy but right now is just making me worried. My PreN vitamins are also making me sick.

I haven't been hungry at all. The only food I can say I've actually wanted is hashbrowns. Every meal, it's the only thing that sounds good, but I can't just eat hashbrowns. I'm a little relieved though. My last pregnancy I was constantly hungry for 41 weeks and it drove me crazy!

 This.  Exactly.  Plus I just started getting morning sickness within the past week so a lot of foods set me off now too.  Eating is the only thing that keeps my m/s under control but nothing sounds good and certain foods make me sick anyway, but of course I don't know what foods do that until it's already in my mouth.  For instance, I was eating veggie pizza yesterday and there were only 2 slices of olives on it (I feel jipped).  Normally I love olives but after taking a bite with one of the olives I was nauseous ALL DAY.

I am with you sister.  The first few weeks after conception, I couldn't eat enough. Now, it is an absolute struggle to even walk into the kitchen. I only want to eat crap, too! The only thing that doesn't turn my stomach are blueberry muffins. Oh, and guacamole (what the heck is wrong with me?). I feel so badly for my husband!! I feel better when I graze during the day, but I can't find what I can eat without turning green immediately!

I have also found that the Bolthouse smoothies have been helpful for keeping my blood sugar steady.  Every 15-30 minutes, I'd take a sip throughout the day, and be okay. I wasn't ready to do triple lutzes afterward, but I wasn't thinking about finding an escape route to a place where I could puke in private.

At this point, I'm desperate to find a way to not feel like crap so I can feel like a functioning human and not like I've been on a bender.
