Hungry

jmaines821

Anyone else get hungry throughout the day.  I have been nauseous at some points of the day and then others I am starving like I haven't ate all day.

My stomach has been growling obnoxiously and people are staring.  Doesn't matter what I eat, still hungry!

Hey @jmaines821 I think you'll have a lot of people commiserating in the symptoms check-in thread!!  Unfortunately threads like this will clog up the board, but the symptoms thread is a definite weekly check-in that everyone can search for and commiserate together

I feel starving, but then when I try and eat I have to choke it down.  It's not working well for me these days!

For the last week I have been starving at all times! I can't seem to eat enough. I remember going through spurts like this with my DS as well. It comes and goes.

I am only 4 weeks but I have felt so hungry since I received my positive. I usually am able to last at work without eating lunch but these last few days I am starving by 11am

So I'm 9w 1d right now and all week I've been eating my usual yogurt before work, then as soon as I get to work I have my "lunch." I can't wait. I just finished my lunch and I know that when noon comes I'll be buying something (small, but still). The later in the afternoon I don't want to eat except to help the nausea. Anyone else super hungry in the AM?

@whaat me! When I get up in the morning I have to be eating breakfast within 2 minutes or I feel like I'm going to pass out. I've been eating lots of cereal as it is the quickest thing to start eating.

Yesssss, I'm always hungry but nothing sounds good and then I make a decision and then I regret it and it's a vicious cycle.

You're making another human being. Of course you're always hungry.

@whaat, my "lunchtime" has crept from noon to 10am over the last 3 weeks. I need to start packing 2nd lunch at this point to make it through the day.

Since I am following the gestational diabetes diet I am not as hungry.  I basically eat at two/three hour intervals all day.  Higher protein and lower carb selections keep me full longer.  But there are days where only a donut will solve life's problems.

I eat 2 breakfasts, 2 lunches, 1 post-lunch snack, dinner, and a post-dinner snack. And sometimes I'm up at 3am for a snack. It's insanity. For me, it usually calms way down after the first tri.

I'm glad I'm not the only one on a 2 meal plan. 2 breakfasts, 2 lunches, dinner and then an after dinner dinner. They aren't big meals, but the frequency is somewhat alarming.

I just ate a fruit cup, a cup of applesauce, and an orange. So much fruit and it's so satisfying. I have no appetite for anything else.

Yep, here we are at 10 am and I'm about to have "lunch." I've already had a yogurt and a wawa sizzli for breakfast.

I've gotten into a habit of breakfast when I wake up and then 2nd breakfast at work. I walked by Taco Bell the other day and was thinking about their late night "4th meal" ads. By that time, I'm on 8th meal at least. Those stoners have nothing on pregnant ladies.

I eat lots in the morning and then go to bed on an empty stomach. Case in point, last night's dinner was not a meal. This morning, I compensated with yoghurt, 4 pieces of toast, 1 sandwich and another omelet. There will be lunch in a few hours.

I'm on a different kind of 2 meal plan. As in, if I can eat 2 meals in one day I'm doing really really well.

I think I'm turning into a hobbit

I just ate a cheese dog and some pita chips and hummus. 

So nice to have even the smallest appetite again.
