less frequent urination

My daughter is 9 1/2 weeks pregnant and today she ate once this morning around 9:00  a big breakfast and went 6 hours without feeling hungry. She usually eats every 2-3 hrs. Also she has a lot less urination. Her sister has lost 5 babies and she is concerned. Is this normal? Thanks

Forgot to add-- she can also tell by the color of her urine. Mine stays almost clear because I drink water all day long, even when it's hard to get it down. But occasionally I'll go too long or not wake up during the night and drink anything, and as soon as I pee, I'll realize the color has brightened significantly so I know I need to get more water in me.

Ditto to the above comments. She needs to drink plenty of water. As for the appetite, I basically force myself to eat 5-6 times a day. I am rarely actually hungry and even when I am, I don't eat much. RE said as long as I'm drinking plenty of fluid, trying to eat, and taking all of my meds, the baby will get what he needs.

I agree, she may not be drinking enough water. I wouldn't worry about the appetite.

how much water is she drinking? that affects urination way more than eating.
my appetite waxes and wanes..some days i am a bottomless pit and other days i don;t eat as much.....
i know of NO correlation between appetite and viability of a pregnancy.
