6 weeks and no appetite?

in 1st Trimester

Hey, everyone,

I'm six weeks tomorrow, and I have totally lost my interest in food. Is this normal? I'm eating, of course, but I'm not enjoying it! Aaa!

 

Anyone else have this problem?

    Yep, samesies. I just force myself to eat lean proteins and veggies. If i keep it down, its a blessing.

    I went through the same right around that time. For me it only lasted about a week.

    It's so weird how our bodies react all different to pregnancy. 1st pregnancy I suddenly loved food with lots of flavor. This pregnancy I hate spicy, sweet, flavorful food. I just want plain blah food. I like it though because I want to gain less weight this time and my love affair with food last time was not helpful!

    Same here.  I'm at 5 weeks and haven't had much of an appetite for the last week or so although I can tell that I'm hungry but don't have a desire for food.  Also, everything I do eat tastes about 10 times saltier, haha!

    I'm at 6w2d and have had little appetite. I have also had no symptoms except for very mild nausea and some food aversions: anything sweet or sugary and peanut butter. My two favorite things go figure!

    It takes me forever to eat a meal, I've found that if I eat slower and eat 6 small meals a day, I can keep my interest a little more.  The only thing that sucks thus far is not being able to pack my lunch for work.  By the time lunch comes around I no longer want to eat what I've packed and I'm really trying hard to avoid lunch meat, which was my usual lunch till I got my BFP.

    Just be sure to get lots of protein, and if you don't want to eat meat to get that buy some protein bars.  I keep a box in my desk at work.

    I am 6wks 3days and I am experiencing the same thing and have been for a week now.  Nothing appeals to me and when I don't eat I end up more nauseated than I was to start with.  I have to force myself to eat small meals but can only eat a few bites.  This is my second pregnancy and my first was not this bad.
