No appetite

No nausea or vomiting yet, but I have basically NO desire to eat.  I did force myself to eat some Easy Mac for lunch and felt okay.  Anyone else completely uninterested in food?

Re: No appetite

  • Yes but it comes and goes. I've not had much of an appetite either but inhaled half a pizza for lunch yesterday. Just eat what you can.

  • I feel the exact same way coupled with all day nausea.  I don't want anything in my fridge, and it makes food shopping challenging.  I have to force myself though because if I ignore eating all day, by the evening my stomach hurts so bad.  Even though your brain is telling you it doesn't want food, your body is still just as hungry as ever if that make sense.

  • Morning sickness started for me yesterday. I'm finding orange juice at least sounds good. I'll have something to drink, will eat some simple carbs (mashed potatoes today) around 9:30/10, and am feeling OK by 12. Nausea starts up again in the evening.

  • I definitely have a lack of appetite. I have occasional nausea but that isn't why. A lot of times I'm just not hungry.
  • This happened during my pregnancy with DD.  It kicked in around 6 weeks and lasted until about 13 weeks.  I never had nausea, food aversions, etc, but I was just straight up not hungry.  I had to force myself to eat, but would get through half a piece of toast and be stuffed.  We had a juicer, so I made a lot of veggie/fruit juice, and also some protein shakes so I could at least drink some calories/nutrition.

    So far, my appetite is relatively normal, but I'm only 4w6d, so I'm not counting on that lasting.
  • I am having to force myself to eat.  I have no appetite and nothing sounds good.  Once I do eat, I get horrible indigestion and feel miserable.  

    The only thing that sounds good to me lately is ice cream and chocolate milk.  
  • I'm in the same boat no appetite little nauseous here and there. But when I do feel hungry I can almost eat everything in the house lol
