Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the acidity and reduced appetite might be normal in pregnancy.The acidity or gastritis is due to influence of progesterone hormone.Take antacids and avoid spicy and oily diet.Take food in small quantities every 2 hourly.Acidity itself might cause decreased appetite.So when acidity gets corrected it gets back to normal.Appetite increasing syrups can be tried.Nothing to worry.Irrespective of appetite take food on time.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
