Ok...dinner was not the best idea & now weird side effects (TMI)

USArmyWifeToBe · May 2010

So I ate McDonalds, not the best idea. Soon after eating my Quarter Pounder I rushed to the bathroom & had diarrhea & like 30 mins after finishing my burger & getting sick from it I felt hungry AGAIN....like empty stomach feeling. I ignored it till later tonight, then I made Mac & Cheese & of course after Mac & Cheese I go to the bathroom again, this time not feeling sick just felt like I still was feeling the affects of earlier. Now its been 20 mins from eating Mac & Cheese its 10:30 & I am having hungry empty stomach feelings AGAIN...um ok? I am confused where is the food going? I had harder stools before the diarrhea & I guess I got rid of it all, but how am I hungry? This may sound sooo stupid but I have to ask, is the baby getting food or am I just pooping it out? Sorry if that sounded dumb but its weird.

I have days where this symptom comes and go. It's like I'm starving, and then I eat. I can't eat very much, I get super bloated and nauseous, and then I'm starving again in an hour. And I def haven't had constipation as a symptom, if you know what I mean

Your body will flush out the things it can't use very quickly. So, if you've had crap for dinner (McDonalds for instance), your body will more than likely say no thank you and dispose of it quickly. It won't happen every time, but don't be surprised by it. I think I read about in Your Pregnancy Week By Week. I had a lot of the empty stomach feeling early on, even after eating a full meal. It's much better now
