Why am I not hungry during early pregnancy?

Generally, people think that after pregnancy, because there is a baby in the belly, pregnant women’s appetite should become larger. But in fact, many pregnant women report that they do not feel particularly hungry. On the contrary, sometimes they even feel like not wanting to eat. Do you doubt whether this is a normal phenomenon? So let's analyze this issue today to see if there are any adverse effects.

Reasons for not feeling hungry during pregnancy

1. In the early stages of pregnancy, the baby's nutritional needs are very small, and the mother does not need to increase her diet specifically. If there is no morning sickness, she will not feel particularly hungry.

2. In the second trimester, the baby gradually grows bigger and rises to the upper part of the mother's stomach. The mother's stomach capacity decreases and she will not feel particularly hungry.

3. During pregnancy, the mother does not feel particularly hungry because her exercise volume decreases and her digestive ability weakens.

4. Due to the change in food taste during pregnancy, the mother does not have any special craving for normal food, so she does not feel particularly hungry.

5. It may also be because the pregnant mother is in a bad mood and has no appetite, so she does not feel particularly hungry.

As long as pregnant mothers have regular prenatal checkups, regulate their work and rest habits properly, exercise appropriately, eat a little less or a little more, there will be no big problems. The important thing is to be happy so that the baby can grow up healthily.

After pregnancy, due to the increase in estrogen, gastrointestinal reactions will occur, such as nausea, vomiting, anorexia, and breast pain. This situation will last for about three months of pregnancy. These symptoms gradually disappear after the placenta is formed.
