Is it normal to not be that hungry? I have a healthy diet and eat right but for the last few days my appetite has not been huge. Is this normal as you get closer to the third trimester? Thanks !!

Hey sleepy, it is a girl, so perhaps that has something to do with it!! :)

This is absolutely normal! As the baby grows, there is less room for your stomach, and there will be times when you just are not hungry, or you don't even want to think about food.
Just remember to eat. Smaller and more frequent meals/snacks might be what's best for you.

Trust me when I say this.......ENJOY NOT BEING HUNGRY! I am 38 1/2 weeks along and I am tearing up a box of cereal right now because no matter what I eat and when I eat it, I still feel hungry to the point it almost makes me sick....I have gained 7 lbs in the past 3 weeks and that is not normal at all for me, especially how far along I am. Enjoy it.

I went through this stage too. I was forcing myself to eat - simply because of baby. If i wasn't pregnant i wouldn't have bothered eating! lol.
When mentioning this to my doc she said it was completely normal. As your uterus gets bigger it presses against your internal organs, including your stomach, making you feel less hungry. Also, if you are drinking more water that will make you feel full as well. Don't worry though - baby is always taking the nutrients and vitamins it needs from you. Just make sure you are taking your prenatal vitamins and all will be well.
Just as a note - i'm 31.5wks now and my appetite is (slowly) on the increase again! lol. So don't stress yourself out about it.
All the best :)

i'm 35 weeks pregnant and that i'm feeling negative. in spite of the undeniable fact that, i'm getting decrease than 5 hours of sleep. i determined that in those very previous couple of weeks- i'm gonna pamper myself. Iwent and were given myself a facial, nail reducing and pedicure. I also began writing issues downs that made me offended- I knwo i'm no longer offended at all people especially yet basically worrying. attempt to even positioned on fantastic fabric, underclothes, and positioned on the make up so that you're feeling like all people else. I used to artwork for all time and loved getting dressed for artwork- so I have a tendency to do issues I used to do b4 I were given pregnant. concentration on the positives- i understand this is not basic sister- i'm top there with you... yet you should walk your self out of those undesirable mood or you'll wade through down the line.. trust me i'm 35 weeks and that i knwo what i'm speaking about.......... sturdy success

Well for my first two pregnancies.. which were boys by the way... i was eating constantly with them.. but now that I am pregnant with a girl.. I haven't really been hungry this whole pregnancy. i still eat my 5 small meals a day though.. but it is normal. Sometimes you are and sometimes your not.. just make sure you nibble on something whether you are or not.. goodluck

i am 27 weeks pregnant and i am experiencing the same thing. this is my third pregnancy and it is completely normal. at the beginning of all of my pregnancys i would eat all the time, but now i have slowed down alot. as you get further in your pregnancy your appetite slows down due to your growing baby. the less room you have, the less you eat or have the urge to eat. as long as you arent going all day without eating you will be fine and so will baby.

Yes because the baby is getting bigger and pushing on your stomach so it is feeling fuller so to speak. As long as you are eating right and not loading up on junk you'll be fine. If you don't gain enough wait the Dr. will tell you. Good Luck!

trust me once you hit about 30 weeks your baby will want to go into a growth spurt. and you will be hungrier, just eat normally and stay active, you will be fine.

Um i don't think so. In fact you'd probably be vomiting up what you did eat. Check with your doctor though.
