A member asked:

I'm 8 weeks preg and i have no desire to eat anything at all. im taking my prenatal vitamins and staying hydrated but i feel nauseous and no food tastes or sounds good. any suggestions? i know i need to talk to my ob but i need some extra advice.

Yes: You do need to confer with your Ob. Now he can put you on some medication so that the nausea is treated. You need to eat well or you will be depleted and this will affect your body as you age.
