pregnant and no food sounds good at all

So I'm 6 weeks pregnant and No food sounds good. I know women usually have cravings but I'm having the opposite.  Every time I think about eating food everything sounds terrible.  I eat something anyway always but is this normal?

Yea this is so weird. I LOVED top ramen but I ate it the other day and the texture of the noodles groomed me out and I can't eat it anymore.

Oh and since you're so early, baby doesn't need you to eat anything extra, so you can eat lightly and take your prenatals. Baby will take what it needs from you. And eat some thing bland, like bread and butter or crackers it helps with the morning sickness and heartburn :)

This is normal. I didn't eat much my first trimester but as soon as second trimester hit, I am a bottomless pit. And you wouldn't be having cravings so early in pregnancy. Try to eat some fruits, I know that watermelon, grapes, apples and strawberries helped me and eased the nausea. Also make sure you're drinking lots of water.

Yeah food disgusted me completely at that time lol I couldn't go in the kitchen or do dishes it was revolting. I still can't cook raw meat but now at 14w I can eat. I'm always hungry actually haha

Hi, Congrats on your pregnancy!  I didn't have much of an appetite my entire pregnancy with my twins.  In the beginning it was harder but as time went by I started to eat smaller meals but it will get better.  :-)

Idk if you would have cravings yet because your SO early but it is definitely 100% normal to not want food. I felt the exact same way up until 14 weeks
