Third trimester and can't eat

[Anonymous]

I am sure this is oh so very normal, but I am having a REALLY hard time eating. I am 33 weeks, and my appetite has vanished. When I do eat (because I have hunger, not an appetite), I feel like I am going to barf. Three weeks ago, I was eating everything that wasn't nailed down.

Maybe my stomach is just too squished? I am measuring pretty small. Anyone else have this experience? How did you get enough nourishment? Tips on how NOT to feel like throwing up after eating little meals?

Thanks. Much appreciated

Try drinking ensure--this is pretty normal-may not be a lot of room in there for food. Also, it's hot outside which can affect you appetite. I would just try to eat a little bit every few hours and not stress.

OP here- I can't believe I didn't think of Ensure or Balance. That is a great suggestion! Thanks. (Of course, I would MUCH rather have a venti frapachinno with extra whip cream. . .)

I think Ensure will be easier to digest in smaller amounts, and help with the blood sugar issues. thanks again.
