No appetite to the biggest appetite

most of my pregnancy my appetite has been little to none. I literally had to force myself to eat. But now that I'm 30 weeks, I can't eat enough. I just ate a half loaf of garlic bread. Has anyone else experienced this?

Re: No appetite to the biggest appetite

  • I have somewhat! Like you, I didn't have an appetite for probably the first 20 weeks. Had to force myself to eat a lot. Now, I will have days where I can't eat enough and other days where I just want to eat like I did when not pregnant. I think it's pretty normal!

  • Your baby may also be going through a growth spurt. I've experienced it occasionally. Right now I'm mostly at the point where I'm just eating like I did pre-pregnancy
  • My problem is I want to eat EVERYTHING but when I sit down to eat I can barely eat a third of it. I feel so stretched out :( I agree with PP, I think it's a growth spurt.
  • I had that up until a few weeks ago now Im at the full stage... I eat because I have to but im mighty full all the time 

  • I have days where I can eat everything in sight and other days where I have to force down things..
  • I had no appetite till about 2 weeks ago and now I can't stop eating! The trouble is I fill up quickly but then 10 minutes later I'm hungry again! I'm trying my hardest to tone down the eating because I dot want to put on a tonne of weight but I really am constantly hungry for carbs haha!!
  • I was nauseous early on and didn't want to eat, then I turned into a bottomless pit and couldn't eat enough. Around 25w I suddenly just wasn't very hungry. Four weeks later, I'm back to being starving again. I figure this is just going to be a roller coaster so I just listen to my body and eat healthfully.
  • Yes! Same here. I ate a half loaf of garlic bread in one sitting the other day. I also don't wanna gain a bunch of weight but it's whatever baby wants
  • I was at the point where I could eat my whole fridge in one day lol no lie I have terrible insomnia as well so I'd take 100 late night snack and meal trips. I would eat get stuffed and 20 minutes later I'm starving. Now I have to force myself to eat. I'm still really tiny so I'm assuming im going to regain my hunger soon so my baby can pack on the pounds :)
