No appetite at 33 weeks and low weight gain...anyone else?
posted 6th Dec
So since i hit about 20 weeks or so my appetite has gone away completely. I want nothing to eat except breakfast which i normaly throw half away. I just cannot get myself to eat anything. Not because it grosses me out but because i am simply not hungry and nothing sounds good. I have only gained a total of 12lbs and I am 33 weeks. My doctor told me to not be alarmed and that i will be under the 20lbs weight gain at birth. I am just kind of wondering if anyone else is going through this?

Thats normal. I only ate about twice a day but I was also sick until the day after I gave birth. I lost 10 lbs and only gained 17 lbs. She was small for almost 40 weeks but healthy!

im 36 weeks and have only gained 7 pounds, my doc said the same thing. they even did an ultrasound just to make sure baby was growing and everything is fine. im sure your lil one will be ok. its normal to loose your appetite towards the end of pregnancy

I am having the same problem. I have to force myself to eat most of the time. =( I've only gained 7 pounds with this pregnancy so far.

I'm 16 weeks 3 days pregnant with our first baby together and I have gained anything at all. I lost 10 pounds in my first trimester and now I am pretty much staying around the same weight now, which isn't over the weight I started at when I found out I was pregnant. I take it day by day but there is no way I can eat "for two" like most people speak of during pregnacy. I feel ok and eat fairly well some days and others I find all food completely repulsive.
