any breast feeding moms feel like they have no appetite? My LO is 5 days old and has gained an ounce since we left the hospital. The pediatrician was happy with her weight. I just don't feel hungry. Is this normal?
I'd say yes it's completely normal but make sure you eat anyway! It's very important to stay hydrated and eat enough while you're building your supply, so keep eating even if you're not particularly hungry.
I think it's normal, but still try to eat (maybe do small, frequent meals if you're not feeling hungry enough for regular meals) and for sure stay hydrated!
I'm not hungry at all, I eat because it's time to eat but not because I want to. I vaguely remember being like this with my son at the begging, but about 6 weeks after he was born I felt hungry all the time.
I haven't been hungry at all either. My baby is 5 days today & has gained 8 oz though so I'm not worried.. I make sure to drink plenty of water & eat small meals throughout the day even if I have to force myself to eat!
Me too! I only remember being ravenously hungry with my other two, it's weird! On the up side I only have one pound to go until I'm back to my pre-pregnancy weight, but I'm still trying to remind myself to eat.
I'm not hungry either. I drink a lot of fluids especially almond milk. I force myself to eat meals. I've lost over 45lbs 3 weeks pp. not trying to diet I just get full and have no desire to eat.
I'm hungry all the time...you do need more calories at this time though so I guess just make sure you are getting enough. Maybe just have little snacks throughout the day and not big meals?
