hiya, i found out about 4 days ago im around 5-6 weeks pregnant (so excited!!) the only symptoms i had were sore boobs and late period. i didnt feel any different at all.
now i no im pregnant, i can notice every little gurgle in my stomach, which is just making me paranoid. plus since finding out i cant seem to eat when im hungry, rite now my stomach rumbling but im not really that hungry ??? i thought i was suppose to be pigging out by now??? i feel like i have to force myself to eat for the baby.
has any 1 else had anything like this?? or is it me being silly??

ive started feeling full and sickly every time i eat, i find im not particulaly hungry in the day and cant eat much when i try but as soon as im in bed for the night i get hunger pains lol
luckily im 2 lazy 2 go back downstairs

i find it takes a lot of energy to eat. i can never be bothered cooking and when i do i end up not fancying what i have cooked. i hope it passes.

aaww im the same lol...i got into bed the other night, and i had this really horrible empty feeling in my stomach and then i really fancied cheese on toast!!

youve been watching that cathedral city advert havent you? i think thats why i get hungry in bed at night cuz of the bloody adverts and cooking programmes

I've been like this too. I've resorted to eating snacks rather than meals, meals make me feel bloated and sluggish, were as a snack satisfies my hunger, but i don't feel heavy after, and it doesent feel like ive forced it down.

I've had that to on and off throughout my pregnancy. You do need to make sure you eat during the day, it's best to try to eat several small meals (they told me 6).

this seems to be totally normal, though I was worried when I started feeling like this too. I think we all worry about everything now!!!

I can't eat when I'm feeling well, or when I'm feeling sick, or when I am hungry! I am finding that I eat a little of whatever I like whenever I like and that way at least I am getting something. At the moment all I really want is fresh fruit and fresh bread. At least its not soemthing too bad for me.

I mentioned it to my doctor and he says that the abby can get everything it needs from me already without worrying about my eating too little. hope that helps.

Good luck and congratulations on the pg!

Thats true, when i had my first, i had severe morning sickness, i couldent eat or drink, if food came on the telly, that set me off, even if somone just mentioned food, and this last for the first 20 weeks.
I was really worried, but the midwife told me not to worry, just to eat when i could, and just munch on dry things (dry toast...yuk).
She was right, as my appitite came back with a vengence and my baby was born a healthy 7,4.

lol..i dont know..its just something about cheese...i always want cheese on toast..i had some before..then i wanted more cheese..so i eat a slice of cheese..i think its gonna be my craving all the way through my pregnancy...i find it hard to eat proper meals though cause when i do i start to feel really sick.
