🍎 Pregnancy Surprises: The Unexpected Appetite Many moms say, “The only time I’ve never wanted to eat was when I was pregnant.” 🤰 Loss of appetite — or nausea — is common, but it can often be managed. Dr. Alan explains that raising glucose levels (for example, using glucose with lactated Ringer’s) can help stop nausea and restore appetite. A few simple steps — including the right bedtime snack — can make a big difference. 🌙 Stay tuned for more ways to keep nutrition on track during pregnancy! #PregnancyHealth #MorningSickness #MaternalCare #RuralDocAlan #HealthyPregnancy Dr. Alan Lindemann is an obstetrician with 4 decades of medical practice primarily in North Dakota.
