Worried for baby’s growth/development

Am petite and thin, and about 8 weeks along. First obstetrics appt scheduled for 9 Dec. Currently having trouble eating normal portion; urge to vomit while eating. Always had difficulty gaining weight too. Any tips to improve appetite during the 1st trimester (and throughout the pregnancy journey)? Thanks much!

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.
