Worried for baby’s growth/development

Am petite and thin, and about 8 weeks along. First obstetrics appt scheduled for 9 Dec. Currently having trouble eating normal portion; urge to vomit while eating. Always had difficulty gaining weight too. Any tips to improve appetite during the 1st trimester (and throughout the pregnancy journey)? Thanks much!

Your appetite will change along the way. For now, try to find food which you can eat and help you feel better. Liquids, sweets, sour stuff, anything. If you can stomach healthy food, of course better. No need to worry about weight as long as baby’s growth is unaffected which you will know during your periodic gynae appointments.
