I have been fortunate enough to not be dealing with morning sickness, knock on wood (who knows if this will be true in a few weeks). However I am hungry all the time. I wake up starving and feeling kinda awful but as soon as I eat protein I'm good to go. I am just worried that I am going to put on too much weight giving in to my hunger. If I don't eat that's when I start to feel nauseous. Am I alone?

i am the same way and its so frustrating because i am hungry but have some many aversions and then cant get full which makes me hungry all the time.
i have been trying to eat foods that will keep me fuller longer, foods that have alot of fiber too. proteins, whole wheat pasta, hummus. i have also been eating lots of small meals during the day and that helps me to not over eat.
hope this is helpful
I can certainly relate. ?I've had quesiness/hunger 24-7 for the past few weeks. ?Eating protein in the morning does seem to help.
A friend recommended eating almonds throughout the day. ?I've gotten in the habit of always having a can of almonds with me (natural not roasted or salted kind) and I eat 2-3 every half hour or so. ?It keeps the hunger at bay until regular meal times and seems to prevent my stomach from being queasy all the time. ?Almonds are fairly good for you, just get natural so you aren't eating a bunch of salt and preservatives.?
I'm with ya....hungry most of the day. I have not had morning sickness but I eat more than I have ever eaten in a day! I have 3 meals with a morning snack and an afternoon snack. I am trying to eat yogurt for one of my snacks and string cheese/fruit for the other. Prior to my pregnancy I was not a huge eater, no breakfast, light lunch most days (lean cuisine or something like it) and dinner....so00000 this hunger is new to me! If I don't eat often enough I feel hypoglycemic, which is awful!
I am not stressing about weight gain at this point...I'll watch that with my OB.....Happy eating!
