Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?

I can't seem to eat even half as much as normal, I'm losing weight pretty rapidly too...

Last night I made a very scrummy steak pie, peas, carrots and mashed potatoes for my family, sat down to eat it and just couldn't :(

It's been the same since tri 1, although my sickness and nausea has gone x

It's like I feel full after a cup of tea! I'm hungry, and I'll make a chicken salad, and can't even eat a quarter of it.

I;m really starting to worry - don't get me wrong, I needed to lose weight before I got pregnant, i was 12 stone..

Now i'm ten and a half..

I;m worried bean isn't getting any nutrients..

To top it all off, all I want to do is sleep all the time...

Help :(
 
I just don't want to be losing weight under these circumstances! :( It can't be good for LO x
 
If you needed to lose weight before baby appeared then maybe it's taking the nutrients from what you already had. I wouldn't worry too much. Plenty of people lose weight at the beginning, but if you're seriously concerned, then ring your MW.

I've gone from eating like a horse and having 3-4 massive meals a day, to barely stomaching a full dinner. I feel better just snacking on at bits throughout the day. The thought of a plateful of food makes me sick, no matter what it is! xxx
 
Thanks chick, I guess it probably is just taking from what I had x

I wouldn't say I was fat or anything, but if I lose any more weight i'm not sure I'm gonna look very healthy!! lol

I think i'll give it a few more weeks and if i dont start feeling any better then I should mention it to midwife x
 
I was the same i lost almost 3 stone and felt full after a few mouthfulls.
Midwife said not to worry as baby takes what it needs from what i could manage to eat. Im only just starting to show now so im worried baby is a bit small.
 
dont worry yourself too much hun, baby will always take everything it needs from you...even if it leaves you feeling rubbish lol so if your feeling fine on what your eating then bubs will be getting all they need (just make sure when you do eat you are having a good balanced diet...not just yummy choccy biscuits lol)

I am finding it all very odd, I couldnt eat a thing in tri1, then got my apetite back in tri 2

now I go back and forth, I can go for a week where I can hardly eat a thing before I feel stupidly full (so like you Im eating a few mouthfulls of a sandwich etc) but then I have a few days that are the complete opposite and I feel like I would literally eat anything that was put in front of me lol
 
I wouldn't say I was fat or anything, but if I lose any more weight i'm not sure I'm gonna look very healthy!! lol

I've done the complete opposite, I was underweight and looking very unhealthy apparently then I started eating like mad and I've piled on 2 stone so far. I'm guessing I didn't have the nutrients for my body never mind LO's. I'm currently looking very porky and feel crap about it all. I think that's why so many people are guessing that I am PG as I've piled the weight on and my boobs are hugggggggge!!! lol xxx
 
I've lost loads of weight too I've dropped 2 dress sizes at least, because I've been so sick, but when i can eat it is hardly anything compared to before. I do have a lot of spare as I was 19st when I fell pregnant so the weight loss has made me more comfortable, but I am worried about the baby plus cos I'm not eating much I'm getting really (tmi!) constipated!! I'm seeing my midwife Monday so was gonna mention it to her.
Just try eating little but often and just make sure the nutrients you are getting are good ones!
