appetite

I'm 13w and lately I've had a loss of my appetite.  I get hungry but when I sit down to eat I'm not hungry. Some days I find myself forcing myself to have to eat. .... has anyone else had this issue... is this normal??

Try different things to see what suites you for now. May be soup or something soft. I started juicing my fruits and veggies and that helped to. Just play around with things. You need to eat something.

At first I was like insanely hungry.

Now, at 8w, nothing sounds good, and if I don't eat, I get sick.

Be sure to drink lots of fluids. I tend to get easily dehydrated, and it's been leading to migraines that Tylenol doesn't even help. :( But now I know the reason, and if I feel one coming on, I sip on juice/water... Too much makes me sick, so if you can tolerate it, that is awesome! :)

I had that happen to me too. Its no fun. I had it from 14-19 weeks. I found dried fruits and light soup got me through.

That's how I've been and I'm only 7 weeks now but it's been going on for like 2 weeks...  I have to force myself to eat most of the time and the only thing that I am actually willing to eat is like fruit

Sometimes doctors can give you something for appetite or nausea. It's normal to lose your appetite though. :) Just stay hydrated and try to eat something small or fruits or something.
