I'm & weeks pregnant. I haven't had any morning sickness. Lately I have been feeling really hungry, but when I go to eat my appetite goes away. I have to force myself to eat. I really don't know what's going on with me. Is this normal?
As far as myself, I did not really have morning sickness until I was about 15 weeks pregnant. And then it only lasted about a week. Be happy that so far you are not having to be sick :)
i really didnt have morning sickness either, i was nto hungry at all and had to make myself eat for th baby. Had it not been that i was pregnant i may not have had anything to eat all day. That has since changed now that i am 28 weeks pregnant still not real hungry but i get the cravings and want all kinds of different things. Good luck!!!
It's normal to have up and down moments. I didn't necessarily eat more just more often. But I had morning sickness that lasted all day. Your hormones are going crazy right now so your body is trying to adjust. Give it some time and make sure you do try to eat something. The first couple months the only thing I could eat was powdered doughnuts and cereal and lots of milk, so I recommend finding at least one thing that doen't make you feel bad and stick with that awhile. Also remember if you crave something try to eat it, it's your body telling you that you need something from it. I craved a lot of fruits and veggies. Hope this helped.
I got hit hard with morning sickness after only about 6 weeks. In the mornings i usually have an upset stomache, and or puking, so i'm never very hungry. But on times that i puke i end up very hungry the rest of the day, versus times where my morning sickness is better and i dont get as sick, i'm not as hungry.

I was the same exact way when I was in the begginning. I would just force myself to eat little snacks but I would eat snacks all the time.. Not just when I got hungry. I tried to keep my stomach as full as possible.
Be grateful you don't have any morning sickness. I was sick for 12 weeks straight and working in a restaurant was almost impossible. I also wasn't hungry and had to force myself to eat even though it usually came right back up. The whole appetite thing changed around like 16 weeks and then I couldn't get enough to eat.
i and 24 weeks and at the beginning of my pregnancy i wasnt hungry then i completely lost my appetite and had to force my self to eat. i asked my doctor and she said not to worry u will getyour appetite back and sure enough i have. but i havent gained any weight i just eat like a horse.
I am 25 weeks pregnant. Lately my appetite has been decreasing (maybe because of the hot weather- I'm not sure) but a good reminder that definitely makes me eat is morning sickness. If I don't eat every 2 to 3 hours I get sick. But I think it's normal for your appetite to change. Just make yourself eat so the baby can have nourishment :)
