1st Trimester

Am I A Freak?

I'm only like 4.5 weeks pregnant so I don't know if this means anything but... Before I was pregnant I ate ALL the time. Now it's like I've lost my appetite and I have to make myself eat so I know that baby is getting enough nutrients (in addition to taking PNVs).

Anyone else notice a decrease in appetite at first? It's like I just don't feel like eating. It's so weird.

  • Total freak....j/k.  It's called food aversions. They come and go for pretty much every food in existence.

  • Lol.  I'm the exact opposite.  I eat all the time!
  • you're fine and it's normal. My appetite change too. i no longer want my favorite foods. it's very normal. you're not harming the baby by not eating all the time b/c the first 3 months it doesnt require that much.

    congrats!

  • When I was at the point you are, I was still eating normally. Around 7 weeks the food aversions started (and have not stopped) but I'm still hungry all the time.

    No worries, everyone is different.

  • I am the complete opposite, I have to eat every 1.5 hours, and my stomach is growling if I go any longer.?
  • Yes!  The first week and a half after I found out I had no desire to eat - very unlike me!  Don't worry it'll change = )
