Your appetite will change along the way. For now, try to find food which you can eat and help you feel better. Liquids, sweets, sour stuff, anything. If you can stomach healthy food, of course better. No need to worry about weight as long as baby’s growth is unaffected which you will know during your periodic gynae appointments.
My 1st and 2nd i had no appetite and mostly survived on kiwi and grapefruit. Now my 3rd is worst, i puked 3x a day and went from 55kg to 48kg in 6weeks. Obgyn said all is good and waiting for my next appt in dec 9 too. Also my friend advice me to eat plain, like no sauce and soup. It work for me :)
First trimester usually no appetite due to morning sickness.. I survive with fruits, porridge and yong tuo foo soup. Sometimes fish soup. Currently at 3rd trimester. Still don't have good appetite. I eat normal portion and not much variety of food.
My gynae ask me not to force myself to eat. When u want to eat, eat. Eat the food u like (other than taboo foods). Eat small frequent meals . Hungry also can cause nausea. Don’t need to eat 3 large meals. Hope it helps !
Baby has yolk sack which gives it nourishment during early pregnancy. Only later in pregnancy, when the umbilical cord is more developed, then baby gets more nutrients from mum. Don’t worry.
Don't force yourself to eat. Just make sure you don't get dehydrated. You can't starve your baby at such an early stage
Eat anything you like.
