I have 2 weeks left to go and lately I have just been having 3 small meals and a few small snacks, is this how it is for you?

Are you eating what you want, when you want? If so...who cares? Just eat, be merry, and enjoy. Congrats to you, and I wish you all the luck in the world!

You should eat regardless whenever you feel hungry and small light meals (not as in ight in fat but in quantity proportion) usually 2-3 small regular meals and a snack in between both. because your baby will need all the energy you can give them as well as yourselves for labor as you will not be allowed to eat most likely during labor. And you will need energy and get lots of rest. Dont ever suppress your need to eat at least that was what I learned during pregnancy. =) Good luck

Sometimes your appetite decreases close to the end of the pregnancy, and you need to eat smaller meals, more frequently. This is completley normal - baby is taking up so much space in your body there is little space in your stomach for food. Just make sure you are keeping regular about your food, so you are still supplying adequate nutrition to you and your baby.

No. I was happy to have my appetite back two weeks before my my little one started to drop. I had smaller meals for the first two months of my third trimester but went crazy again for the last few weeks of my pregnancy.

There isn't much room left for your stomach to expand properly now, so eating little and often is prob good for you. It will prob also keep your energy up as well which can only be a good thing at the moment. Good luck.

No, I ate and drank whatever I wanted. 3 meals a day and lots of junk food. Little Debbies, pies, cakes etc. etc. I only gained 22 lbs. my whole pregnancy. I was back in my reg. clothes when my son was 1 month old. I breast fed too. That helps alot.
Just eat whatever you want.

No sweetie......I ate from the time I got up until I went to bed and even got up in the middle of the night to eat chocolate teddy grahams (LOL)......eat healthy if at all possible. The last few weeks were the worst for me.....IT'S ALL WORTH IT, THOUGH.

When I was pregnant I hardly had an appetite, and then evrything I would eat would give me heartburn. So it just differs for everyone.

That's how it was with my last pregnancy. We will see this time.
