30+1 wks pregnant and complete loss of appetite. forced myself to have some breakfast. haven't eaten since and can't…

I've been like this a gud while and also feel guilty my baby isn't getting enough from me. I feel a little better to think I'm taking pregnacare vitamins but still hate not eating. Been suffering lots with back and rib pain so haven't been sleeping and think I'm just too tired to eat xx

My friend was sick until 28 weeks and couldn't eat a thing. Her daughter still came out 8lbs+ :) regardless of what you eat...how much or how little. Bubs will always take the nutrients they need from it :) xx

feel exactly the same @sleckenby . I try and take my vitamins but keep forgetting! I got my rocking chair yesterday and fell asleep in it as it was the first time in weeks that I was comfortable.. I don't mind about me it's just the little one I worry about xx

My appetite went at 6 weeks :) my baby is perfectly healthy and I am measuring bigger for my gestation xx

@winterbaby95, what nutritions would you focus on so I can make sure when I eat I eat the right things. it made me feel better hearing that she will get what she need thanks xx

I would focus on fruit and veg :) also red meat for iron etc :) I lived on Salad and Cereal my first trimester as it is all I could eat without feeling sick xx

Lots of cereals contain the vitamins etc you need :) I lived on cocopops and porridge :) xx

Vitamin C is important too to help absorb Iron xx

@felicjuh, I totally get that. I have never really been the best of eaters.....That's why I'm choosing not to breastfeed. I just don't eat enough or on the days I do its prob stuff I shudnt be eating 😯 Been to the midwife today and my bump is measuring 36cm which is great cos I'm 36 wks on Sat so that's made me feel better about it xx

@sleckenby, see that worries me more I keep measuring .5 under as well.. and as you said when I eat enough it's probably the wrong stuff! they checked my blood and glucose etc and that looks great.. I will be getting myself some oranges @winterbaby95 and tbh cocopopps sound pretty ok haha xxx

Have another friend that was measuring 32 weeks at 40 weeks and gave birth to a 7lb 6oz baby on her due date :) Measurements don't really mean anything xD They can be way off :) Have you had a growth scan? @felicjuh xx

.5 under?? I've measured 2 weeks under before :) xx

haha you do know how to ease my mind @winterbaby95 might start singing frozen in a little bit.. let it gooooo haha overprotective already and not even here yet xx

Baby takes all goodness from you/your stores.. I've barely been eating since about 7weeks due to severe nausea.. As long as you keep your fluids up.. All should be okay :) xx

thanks everybody xx
