ALREADY a Bad mom...?

Question

I don't have much of an appetite and i eat when I feel like I need to but for some reason my bf and his SIL. Think im not eating enough. Threatening to call dcf/cps/or whatever you call it. Like im not stressed enough having to deal with the fact that my bf doesn't seem to care about me unless it involves sex 😤 and my job delaying my start date and countless other things 😭😢

Answer

Lol CPS can't do anything cuz they don't consider it a child. 
ANYWHO!!!! You're a fine and your child is fine if you are taking your vitamins and at least eating a tiny bit of fruit and veggies or whatever you can stomach you are fine. 
I am the same way and can barley stand the thought of food. I asked my OB and said it is completely ok!!!!!!' 
So tell them to shove it!

Answer

My doctor had to tell my husband the same thing. You only need 300 extra calories a day which is like, one big snack.

Answer

Your not a bad mom your Just not a hungry mom. I'm the same way, my fiancé has to force feed me. I eat maybe once a day and then I'm done. Even if you weren't eating enough the baby pulls it's nutrients from you regardless if you eat the baby will still be okay. I think the CPS threat was a scare tactic to make you eat. In a odd way it's your s/o giving you tough love. I'd show him research articles and explain to him that it's very hurtful when he puts things that way.

Answer

You've gotta be kidding me! Are you sure you don't mean ex-BF?  Sorry, dont mean to stir up trouble but that is no way to support you in your pregnancy.

Answer

I was very happy when my dr informed my husband that it's completely normal to not want to eat a lot in the first trimester. The baby will get what it needs either way and to just try and eat as much as you can and really focus on water and fluids

Answer

I'm sorry your bf AND his mother are threatening to call who bc they don't think you are eating enough? I think that is a bigger issue than just having a spotty appetite here. If your bf or his mother aren't coming to your doctor appointments then they both need to do more than STFU. I would actually consider what kind of a person threatens you with that and if you want to be around those people in the future.

Answer

Well... CPS won't do anything. Because they don't consider your LO a baby yet. That's why mothers that take drugs or drink can't get into trouble unless it's caught on a drug test at birth.
And not wanting to eat is normal. You need to try to force yourself to eat little bits. But that's it. You don't need to eat 6 huge meals a day. Only need to add 300 calories to a diet for MOST pregnancies unless otherwise specified by your DOCTOR due to being under or over weight. 
I'm going to take a jab that neither your BD nor his mother are doctors LOL 
They can either go to the doctors with you and be quiet. Or just be quiet.
