I am just over 38 weeks and for the past 3 days or so, I have completely lost my appetite..I am ok with breakfast but I sometime has to force myself to eat, lunch I force myself to eat a sandwhich and then comes dinner..I think I want to eat but every bit of food I look at I just get turned off by it. the past couple night I have been skipping dinner cause I just can't bring myself to eat...for those who have reached this point or this is not their first, have you experienced this? Should I be concerned about this and call my OB?
PS..Please don't tell me i need to eat..baby needs it..try small meals..I have heard all this and know this...just curious to see if others been through it.
Re: 38 + weeks and Loss of appetite
I think it means .... you're 38+ weeks pregnant. You're running out of room for food. I hit this point around 38w with both babies as well and never went into labor.
Do what you can, but it's not like your baby is going to starve if you skip dinner.

Same with me. Finding it hard to want to eat, but feel like i can't quench my thirst. When I'm hungry...the thought of anything sounds unappetizing. It sucks.
