no appetite

christsgurl · January 2014

I've had to make myself eat yesterday & today because I don't feel hungery & pretty much all food sounds kinda gross right now. Just been drinking fluids mostly but I just think its werid that I'm pregnant 35 weeks & food completely is a turn off right now. Its not like I'm having 3rd trimester morning sickness either. Anyone else is the same anti-food boat?

I have short bouts of nausea that come and go and often no appetite too. I think it comes with the territory.

RondackHiker · January 2014

Nope. Food's been my best friend this entire pregnancy. No anti-food issues here at all.

I have zero appetite as well. No nausea or anything but I just don't feel like eating, of course I do but its hard to because I'm not in the mood for anything.

OH gosh, me. Nothing appeals to me. And on top of that, I have GD, so I HAVE to eat frequently. It's going on the list of things this kid owes me when they are a teenager. Glad to hear there are many on our appetiteless boat.

I lost my appetite for weeks but the last few days it has improved. But my appetite has been off this entire pregnancy. Hope it starts coming back for you.

Have you tried wafers?

I'm 35w 4d and have been feeling this way all week, too! I have to remind myself to eat.

Mine has been going back and forth. I think part of it has to do with the fact I feel like a stuffed turkey.

Yes, a little bit. It's so frustrating as I normally have a huge appetite and cravings like nuts! I know I will be ravenous when I am breastfeeding and also wanting to lose baby weight (don't worry, I know you have to eat to keep milk up and that will not be a problem I am sure!) but lately I'm sort of "eh" about food. I still eat of course but I can't eat as much without feeling ill because my stomach is so scrunched up right now and all the heartburn, etc. It's not often that I get super hungry and I haven't had too many cravings lately. What's even more depressing is it's not keeping from gaining excessive amounts of weight each week, either! So I'm gaining weight at the speed of light and not even getting the bonus of being able to enjoy it!

I know, it's silly, and really yes as long as the baby is healthy (and by all accounts he seems to be doing fine in there) I don't care and the weight will work itself out, but uuuuugh. All this extra weight is making me swell and be miserable and dread trying to lose it all!

I have definately noticed my appetite getting smaller. I don't get that feeling that I just want to eat anymore. I think part of it is because our stomachs are so small that it's not like we can really enjoy meals anymore. I also have been getting a lot of nausea and indigestion which makes it not fun.

No. Give me all the food!!!

I love the Gap girls. This and "Van down by the river" are the two best Chris Farley moments, IMHO.

I do have to say I have been craving a root beer float though & that craving probably won't go away till I have one or 2

LOL this is so me. I've had a thing for Honey Bunches of Oats (with almonds). I'm not even a little embarrassed to admit I go through a couple boxes a week.

@codypup there's always crispix in my house! Publix had a sale during first tri and I think I bought 6+ boxes.
All of this cereal sounds good. I think I'm going to go with @megash113's cinnamon toast crunch!

christsgurl · January 2014

Finally got my hunger back lol! Had 4 slices of pizza for supper & DH has to go and brag about the amazing sushi he had at his friends house the other day. Not fair. Oh & he bought root beer for me but forget it there! Food rant over

ShePersisted · January 2014

OP be happy that all you have is no appetite. I'll take that any day rather than other symptoms some women have been having here like constant nausea for the last 8 months, pain in the ribs and abdomen the moment they eat and heart burn that hurts more than anything else. As long as you can take some food and keep it down you are actually doing very well.

I will now go back to holding my ribs as I drank a big glass of fiber and it won't digest for another hour!

I did that with a box of CTC last month. I had to take a few weeks off from it afterwards, but #worthit.

I could easily eat a box of CTC in a day. No problem.
