Hello Pallavi and welcome,

Please do not worry.
This is very common during pregnancy and occurs due to increase in the pregnancy hormones.

Please try to take small meals at regular intervals even if you do not have a desire to eat. Take at least 1-2 fruits a day. If you are feeling hungry but things are not tasting right try ingredients like a bit of roasted cumin seeds or mango chutney or pickle to enhance the taste.

This will go away after some time. Do not worry. Wish you a happy pregnancy.

Hope this satisfies your query.
Thanks for using HCM.
