Pregnancy

5 wks and no appetite but for no particular reason. Is this a bad sign?

I've got myself all in a stew about this pregnancy.

I am amazed I got pregnant at all - I haven't been feeling too well for months, bad insomnia + loads of stress etc.

I was starving in the first trimester with my other pregnancies. I have just got over a bug but I'm just not particularly hungry. I have occasional bouts of nausea (I think) but that's not why I'm not hungry.

has anyone else felt like this and the pregnancy was ok?

I was like this, no appetite whatsoever and then food tasted like wallpaper paste anyway. then at 7 weeks morning ickness kicked in and i had to force myself to eat to not be sick. But I still wasnt hungry. By about 16 weeks i was ravenous and ate myself stupid. Haribo, strawberry icecream, fruity things...god i just couldnt stop eating.

The baby turned out just fine...she's asleep upstairs. Its early days in your pregnancy. give it another 3 months and i bet you'll be back to biscuit stuffing.

oh that's great news on one hand but on the other, I haven't had morning sickness before and I hope it's not a sign that I'll be puking everywhere!!!!
