At 20 weeks pregs u would think I would be eating more but I'm not. It's 5pm I haven't eaten since 6pm last night. My partner is mad at me but I'm just not hungry. Should is just eat to eat?

Umm... this cannot be healthy.

I don't really feel like eating but I eat because I know the baby needs it. I would try that..

I'm not hungry either but it's really important to eat! Not eating since yesterday is not good for you and not good for baby at all- this makes me really worried. I force myself to eat and I make smoothies, I'm not even close to eating what I was eating pre pregnancy but I'm doing my best. Saying you're just not hungry isn't good enough!! I understand why your SO is angry with you!! EAT!!! You're growing a baby.

You should probably eat even if you do not have an appetite.

Are you at least taking your prenatal vitamins?

My appetite has dwindled, but I eat because I know I have to. My last two pregnancies were totally opposite. I was always hungry.

I could eat all of the food. Seriously.

I have days when I can't eat anything. I try to find foods I can turn to when I feel that way. I eat a lot of cereal and cheese it's. MH says I eat like a toodler. My ob says it's normal. I feel like you should find some kind of comfort food though.

My appetite is very on and off. Some days, I could eat anything and everything in sight. Other days, like today, eating is kind of a chore, although I'm still somewhat hungry.

Try getting some instant breakfast or drinking chocolate milk.

I second the instant breakfasts, they are pretty delicious too

I think it's normal for us to not feel hungry sometimes or want to eat, and other times to not be able to eat enough. However, you need to eat something. Even if it's just some fruit and a piece or toast.

I can't hardly eat breakfast anymore, but having GD, I make myself eat something. I feel full about 3 bites in. I have an appetite the rest of the day, but til about noon it's hard to eat much of anything.

Sometimes when I have no appetite and I feel sick, I force myself to eat some fruit and it really helps. I agree that prenatals are super important so at least try to force that down the hatch. You are your baby's source of nutrients, that's something to keep in mind. Hope your appetite comes back, eating is the best!

My appetite is definitely down a bit, but I'm still eating 3 regular meals with a protein/nuts snack here and there to try to avoid blood sugar spikes. I feel like all I could think about was food first tri and now I'm slightly disinterested.

Definitely eat, even if it's small. Baby needs energy and nutrients.

I agree you should eat even if you aren't hungry. I was force feeding myself for the first three-four months. It's easier now but the only thing that really sounds good & is satisfying is icecream! I eat other things of course but you just have to eat for your baby! Try to find something you can get down: hard boiled eggs, cheese, apples, cearel? Just some suggestions. Good luck!

I can't go two hours without stuffing my face.

And going almost 24 hours without eating doesn't sound healthy for the baby. Get a shake or something

I'm also like you and if I do eat I get nauseated. So I just try to do small snacks.
