3rd Trimester

anyone else not like food as much anymore?

lately (for a few weeks), I have hardly liked any food. I'm only eating because I have to, but I haven't been enjoying things that I used to like and even love. I haven't craved anything for a few months either. Is this weird? Anyone else experiencing the same thing?

Re: anyone else not like food as much anymore?

  • Yep. I feel like my diet pretty much consists of strawberries, grapes, milk, cereal, chicken and Oreo's.

    I'm right there with ya.

    It's like I don't want a meal ever.  I would be happy just picking on munchies all day.  I get full so quickly and everythign feels squished in there.

    All I want right now is ice cream with sprinkles.

  • My appetite went down around 36 weeks or so.  But I still love food.

  • Me.  Food just doesn't taste the same.  It's like my tastebuds have been dulled Sad 
  • YES! for the past two weeks or so. it's not that i don't like anything but i just don't have an appetite so farcking weird. I

  • yes, I'm hungry but don't feel like eating much of anything... but still forcing myself to follow my 'diet'... specific quantities of fruits, veggies, proteins, etc.

    I don't think I crave anything more than once per week now.

  • me!  The only thing I'm still loving is any fresh fruit.  Sometimes I have to make myself eat as I've forgotten b/c I don't seem to be hungry.

  • ok, great to know that i'm not alone in this! it's so sad b/c i think of restaurants that i used to love and haven't been to for awhile, and then i order my old favorite meal, and i don't even like it anymore. hopefully our tastebuds will go back to normal after our LOs come!
  • Weird observation: Notice that most of us who feel this way are having girls? Interesting.

  • Yeppers, right here!  It's funny you should post this I was just going to post the same thing.  Food just seems blah! 
  • Nope!  I still love it.  I am not eating as much of it later in the day though.  I am starving for breakfast and lunch but by dinner I barely eat anything.  I just had a fried egg and cheese english muffin sandwich and a bowl of fruit salad.  I thoroughly enjoyed it!

  • Totally. I don't even like thinking about food- it's exhausting.?
  • i havent craved anything either...from what ive heard from people its more common not to crave it seems, since no one I know does. I feel so full all the time that when I do feel hungry I get excited bc I love food lol
  • that happened to me as well.

    the only thing i want is cereal.

  • oh, i am still hungry, but when DH asks me what i want, i literally can't tell him b/c i don't want anything. it's so weird! and he is all ready to go buy me things that i crave, which is so cute, but i don't want anything!
  • I wish I was having that problem!! I can't get enough food. I am eating all day long and when I'm not eating, I'm thinking about what I'll be eating next! The OWT says that if you're having a boy you'll eat like a teenage boy... in my case it is totally true! I just hope it goes away once he gets here so that I have a chance of getting back to my pre-pregnancy size.

    Perhaps we could share and then both be just right?

  • it's like i'm hungry, but don't want to cook anything.  once i fnally do eat, i'm hungry again in an hour.
