Not eating full

Asked for Female, 35 years

My appointment is scheduled with the doc for the next week. I am 6 weeks pregnant. However, I have been trying to eat but all I eat is a very little amount of snacks/fruits. I am unable to eat roti or chicken/ beef item. In case, if I consume any food instead of snack and fruits I start feeling vomiting or I feel too full. I am much worried about my baby because the calories in my total diet per day are too less! What to do?

Dear Patient,

I'm sorry to hear that. Continue eating in small amounts whatever you can easily digest. Walk a little after meals. The nausea and poor appetite is Maximum during the beginning of pregnancy and will improve with time. Your doctor can recommend a good medicine for you if this doesn't improve in time.

For further consultation, you can choose from our list of best Nutritionists in Lahore and seek in-person advice.
