Still no appetite

Woisey

I’ve struggled with this the whole pregnancy, but now I’m really struggling. I’m 32 weeks tomorrow. It takes hardly any food and I am full for hours, to the point that I just don’t feel like I can make myself eat again. I’m choking down 3 meals a day but it is not pleasant. The constant feeling of being overfull. If I eat dinner I wake up in the morning feeling overfull. I’m not eating huge meals, maybe 400 calories? Not overly fatty stuff either, with the exception of avocado and nuts (yum!).

I think I’m getting around 1800 calories a day or so. From what I’ve been reading I should be eating more than that but I just can’t get there.

Baby is growing well so I’m not super worried but I have not put on much weight during pregnancy, maybe 12-13 lbs?

How important do you think it is to get to the 25lb weight gain range? I’ve read conflicting information on that question. My BMI before pregnancy was 22, not thin, not fat, just athletic.
