Can I just drink maternal milk in first trimester

I am in my first trimester and having very bad nausea and vomiting. Have no appetite to eat as well as most things come out after that. I’ve been to the hospital and did some blood test which shows that I’m still adequately hydrated. Was thinking if it’s possible to just drink maternal milk all day (in place of eating) to get enough nutrients for the baby?

Milk alone is definitely not enough and maternal milk has high sugar content, known to be one of the reasons for gestational diabetes. My gynae discourages me frm drinking it unless it's the only thing i cld take. I ended up drinking fresh milk and supplement with multivits, calcium and fish oil. Forced myself to eat at least 1 proper balanced meal. 1st tri is impt cz it's the time when baby is developing. Any deficiency will cause defects and abnormalities.
