No appetite 14 weeks

Just wondering if any other ladies in their second trimester are experiencing loss of appetite? I am 14.5 weeks now and am never hungry. As my first trimester morning sickness passed by about 10 weeks, I was expecting to be eating normally by now. But I'm just never hungry. I force myself to eat a small breakfast, then at lunchtime the most o ever fancy is fruit, and I then have a small dinner with my family in the evening - but I am never hungry for it and could happily go without.

Normally (pre-pregnancy) I love food and especially sweets and cakes - now I just never want to eat anything really. I don't feel sick any more, but I'm just not hungry. Ever.

My weight now is about 3 pounds less than at the start of the pregnancy.

I've googled loss of appetite in pregnancy and apart from being related to morning sickness (which mine isn't any more), can't find anything. The normal thing seems to be an increase in appetite. Should I be worried and is anyone else in the same boat?

Same here. Been like this the entire pregnancy so far. I'm 16 + 5 and have lost all interest in food (1st time ever in my life lol) Just never really feel like eating and when i do eat i'll be half way through and get bored of it, nothing tastes normal and its just a thought to eat really. Although i do force myself because if i let myself get really hungry i am sick.

I get this too sort of, although I do feel hungry a lot, just can't find anything I want to eat other than fruit and trying to find stuff I want for dinner is a nightmare. I've not gained any weight so far and I'm just about to hit 14 weeks. I think the heat doesn't help either as being hot and bothered doesn't make me want to eat.

I had nausea with DS first trimester and after it passed I was the same. No interest in food. My portions were small I lost 2 stone by 20 weeks. I had it to lose though so midwife wasn't concerned but heading into 3rd trimester I had a much better appetite and DS was 9lb9!

Glad it's not just me. It feels so odd going through the day thinking about what to eat all the time and just not fancying anything - not even chocolate!
