Lack of appetite?

in Babies: 0 - 3 Months
Anyone else experiencing this? I don't have much of an appetite, and when I am hungry, I have to tend to DS. I try and snack on healthy foods while he's asleep just so I have something in my system. If you're experiencing this, how do you ladies handle it? Any suggestions are welcome.

    I'm experiencing this too!  I don't have any suggesstions unfortunately.  My best friend went through this too when she first had her baby.  I'm assuming it's normal.

    I'm not very hungry either. It takes me almost all day to finish a normal sized apple, which is all I snack on. I eat my dinner over several hours, but breakfast, usually a bowl of cereal I'll suck down as fast as I can get it in my mouth. After that, s-l-o-w eating all day. I'm kinda hoping this won't change so I can lose the remaining baby weight, especially combined with pumping!

    I felt like that for the first few weeks.  My husband forced me to eat in the hospital.  I'm sure the crazy hormones has something to do with it.  Don't worry, it will come back.  Ugh...

    This was me at the start! Everyone told me that I my appetite would increase because I was breastfeeding, but I totally lost my appetite instead. It slowly built back up and then in the last couple of weeks it's increased - I'm starving all the time!

    Damn. I don't remember this from my last pregnancy. Le sigh.

    I don't have anything to add to this except I still sometimes just don't have time to eat!  But, I wanted to say that I have a Scarlet too!!  See pics below!

    My DD is 10 days old and I feel the same way. I ate super healthy and often when pregnant but now my appetite is gone. the other day I ate lunch and didn't feel hungry after. I told my DH to give me snacks or else I would either be too busy with DD or just be too tired to eat.
