Anyone else not hungry at all?

[VanillaIce]

I'm 30 wks today and am have still not had even a single day of feeling any hungrier than usual. In fact, I'm far less hungry than before I was pregnant and it's been like this all the way through. The first trimester I put it down to MS and nausea and didn't worry about it. But my appetite has never really returned. When I do eat, I try to make sure it's something healthy so I know I'm getting some good things each day (luckily I seem to have less desire for sweet stuff than before) but I keep reading in my pregnancy books about all the calories my baby needs and how I should be eating an extra 300 by this stage and I just don't think I am.

There just don't seem to be enough hours in the day to get through all the foods that you're supposed to eat in pregnancy! And I find it hard to eat at all in the mornings as still feel a bit dodgy when I first wake up. I've just read that over the next few weeks my baby's brain is having a growth spurt - and I really do want him to have a good brain!

I'm just surprised as everyone assumes pregnant women are ravenous all the time, don't they???

I am the same - am 22 weeks today and my appetite hasn't increased either. Again, I had MS in the first trimester so eating was reduced dramatically. Now, I am eating the same as before being pregnant - I am trying to make sure I have lots of fruit inbetween just as snacks. I am also taking my pregnacare tablets each day. My last scan showed she was absolutely fine so I not worrying about it.

Hi jazzy, I'm taking a vitamin pill every day too, as a back up. I'm eating ok-ish I think, just not lots and lots. It's really quite a struggle isn't it? And to think, pre-pregnancy, I'd have loved a few weeks of no appetite!

Scans all fine here too and fundal height slightly above average for the weeks that I am so presumably all is well. Just hate to think of baby hungry in there!
