Hungry and don't want to eat

Anyone else ever feel like this? It's not a pregnancy thing for me, but common actually. It never mattered there was a baby growing. Now I can spend hours being hungry telling myself I should eat something but don't what to eat!

Frustrating that's all!

    I'm like that, especially when it's hot outside.  I recommend snacking - think crunchy veggies, juicy fruit, cheese, and nuts.  Sometimes I also eat uncooked flavored oatmeal packets... I understand that's odd, though.  This usually sparks my hunger for something more meal-like around meal time and gives baby the nutrients she needs.  Also, drink lots of water!  Sometimes, you're thirsty rather than hungry but your body doesn't know the difference.

    Yes!  I've been having this problem.  It's really awful... and I make sure to drink plenty water, doesn't seem to help me though.

    Thanks! I do snack on lots of those things, but rare oatmeal? Never tried it! It's not hot here---it's winter in the southern Hemisphere. I'm just weird like that! Thanks!

    I didn't account for a different hemisphere!  And yes, uncooked oatmeal :)  I think my liking for it started out of laziness during my undergrad.  I hated washing dishes in my tiny dorm room so just grabbed my Strawberries and Cream Oatmeal packet and ate it for breakfast.  That's been one of my cravings, now!

    I'm hungry at this very moment.... It's not that I don't want to eat. I just don't want anything that I have here. I've noticed that I do this a lot, and end up starving myself because I can't bring myself to eat anything that I don't want. Very unhealthy...

    This is so me. I have been so bad about if it doesn't sound good to me at the moment and my mind is set on something else. I just don't eat. It's crazy.
