Not hungry..what can i eat for breakfast?

[gracetan7]

Hi,

I am newbie to this forum and this is my first baby. I was wondering what should I have even if I am not hungry in the mornings. I am usually not a morning breakfast person and when it comes to breakkie, I only feel hungry around 10-11ish in the morning which i will reach out for a multi-grain toast or a bowl of wholegrain cereal. Is that too late to eat? Lunch is around 1-2pm. So far, I have not experience any morning sickness and into my 6 weeks yet.

Thanks!

If that's working for you keep doing it. You may find as time goes on that your eating habits will change. Even if you don't get MS you could still go off food and only be able to eat small amounts of particular things and it may not be around meal times. I did that for months and still had a healthy baby.

Welcome to BB, if your not a breakfast person and your not hungry i wouldnt worry to much
Some ppl's m/s is so severe (like my sisters) that you can hardly eat anything and keep it down and they still have healthy babies. Your baby will take anything it needs from what you eat and leave you the leftovers.
Good luck

Maybe a glass of juice of a glass of sustagen (sp?)?

Thank you for your quick replies. Much relieved to hear that.I wish all the other symptoms like bloating and tenderness will subside soon.

Have a great day!

Wait til you get to the third tri. That's when the real fun symptoms start.

Congratulations and welcome!

I am the same as you. I am not a big breakie eater. I have a bowl of cornflakes with skim milk and thats it. I can't handle anything more than that. But by 10ish I am starving and that is when I usually have a cup of tea or a hot chockie with some McDonalds Cookies (my craving). That usually gets me by till about 1ish and then I am hungry again but don't really have any desire for anything in particular so I end up making a vegimite sandwich which keeps me going till about 3ish then I have some more cookies. What can I say I love those cookies!

Are you taking a pregnancy vitamin? It is important that you pick one that has Iodine in it for baby's brain and as far as I know Elevit doesn't have iodine in it. Anyway if you take a suppliment you should be right for the bare basics so don't panic. Just eat when you want and eat what your body feels like eating! Its time to really get to know your body and listen to what it is saying to you.
