I was wondering if there were any other ladies out there that doesnt eat as much. I seem to have lost my apetite. I can only eat small meals (like two bites seriously) and then I get full. Im worried that im not eating enought but I cant force myself to eat or I get sick.

You cant eat big meals the bigger you get, your stomach is literally mushed into your diaphram, it cant hold a regular amount of food.
Its normal too to not be overly hungry, just keep taking your prenatals, and eat about 6 small meals a day.
Just munch on whatever sounds good whenever you can.

did this just start or have u been like this the whole time so far? if u have been like this u should have told ure dr a LONG time ago but if its just starting now then dont be alarmed, try drinking juices or milk at least to get the major nutrients down (calcium and vitamins). however every now and then snack on things dont pressure ureself but maybe have a carrot while ure doing something or have some toast. dont starve ureself but u dont have to force anything in that would just be worse to do. congrats its almost OVER!!

As the baby grows it takes up more room, squishing your organs. Your stomach may not have as much room to expand as you eat. As long as you eat periodically throughout the day it should be fine. Take your pre-nate pills. If your weight starts to go down your doctor should catch on and suggest suppliments.

The further along you get in your pregnancy, the less you tend to eat at one time. You will probally start eating more meals, just smaller portions. At least that is what I did .

I was worried about that too, but the midwife said it was ok, as long as I don't lose any drastic weight. Our stomachs are being pushed up into a small lil organ, so there isn't much room for hunger.

You don't need to force yourself to eat. Eat when you are hungry, eat something good for you because your not eating much
