food intake??

Im 9wks along & when I eat dinner, lunch or breakfast I can only eat like half of what I normally ate pre- pregnancy. Im not nauseous or anything but I seem to get "stuffed" with such a little amount of food. Does anyone else have this issue? (p.s. I don't snack inbetween meals)

I was that way the whole first trimester and some time shortly into my second trimester I ate like crazy. I felt like I hadn't ate in months. I am 27 weeks now. I just think our bodies are changing so much and as a result you don't eat as much and then once your body gets used to the extra everything you get your appetite back?...

I do the same thing.  Before pregnant,  I was an eating machine. I love to cook so I was always eating something but now I eat less than my 6 year old daughter.  Im 12 weeks and still do it. I litterally took 3 bites of dinner last night and was done. My hubby tells me im starving the baby but I can't help it. Maybe our body is releaseing a lot of the hormone that tells our brain that its full. Thats the only thing I can think of.
