I was repulsed by food until a week ago, haha. And I don't really have cravings for anything, but I do actually want to eat now.. frequent small meals are best for me. If I eat a whole meal I feel very uncomfortable.

I couldn't stand food until I was about 16 weeks, then my appetite came back gradually. Now I'm 35+3 and I feel like a bottomless pit. Never really had cravings, unless you count the neverending need for flesh. All I wanted for the longest time was meat, which I thought was funny because I never was a big fan of meat, at least not red meat. Steak was the most disgusting thing ever to me, now I can't get enough of it!

welcome to motherhood! it's very normal, although normally, you won't start craving things until after your first trimester.

You'll start to crave good when your morning sickness subsides.  Trust me I was the same way. I was sick from 6 weeks to 14 weeks. And it was horrible.
