anyone got a lack of appetite and no cravings?

dimple123 · Apr 3rd, 2012, 10:39 AM

I'm almost 16 weeks and I have no desire to eat food. Well my sickness has gone, and i'm always insanely hungry but I just have no desire to eat. I obviously do eat but I struggle with lunch especially sandwiches, and I never eat the full amount on my plate. I just associate pregnancy with eating well and cravings and I have no cravings. anyone experiencing this too?

No cravings and some days I force myself to eat, other days I want to eat non stop. Just find things you want that are healthy and snack often if you can.

This has been happening to me since I concieved no appetite and no cravings no morning sickness caused me to loose 6 lbs. Now I'm kinda getting my appetite bk but still no cravings I've gained 3lbs bk now at 16 wks but the baby has been good throughout so its fine!

I feel like i force myself to eat, i could be starving but am unable to eat like i want. At first i didnt think much of it but it seems as though it should have passed by now. I plan on bringing this up at my nxt dr appt.

i'm like this too, since i hit the 2nd trimester i went from hungry and nauseated all the time to not wanting to eat. i've even had some issues where i've forgotten to drink enough water and gotten dehydrated. i need to remind myself to eat cuz i don't have the incentive of there being evil sickness if i don't.

i'm sure once 3rd tri shows up this will change

I've had no cravings really, but a massive appetite! I have gone off meat a bit though... baby must be a vegetarian!

at least i'm not the only one! It's just so weird seeing all these threads about craving etc, and me thinking i'm the only one feeling like this. strange as well that before I was pregnant I had such an appetite, I could eat anything and everything even if i was full.

Not everyone gets cravings, out of my 3 pregnancies i've only ever had cravings with one of them. i had barely any appitite till 20weeks but thats cos my sickness was still bad at that point. x

im exactly the same

its now lunch time and the thought of eating makes me nausea.
last night I forced myself to eat a chicken burger, 30mins later 'blaaaaaaaah' everything!

I will let my doc know tomorrow cos this can't be okay.

I still can't drink much water without the need of throwing up </3333

I'm the same with water actually, I hate drinking it, it makes me want to vomit. But I force myself to drink it. Hopefully 3rd tri will be better for us
