Are you ladies getting full faster?

Belinda80

So I'm not 100% better, I still get nauseaous with food, but its seems i can eat a little more things than before.  However, since last month i noticed i get full much faster.  Not sure if its just me or if anyone has noticed that too?

Yes!! It seems so counterintuitive, but I have definitely been able to eat less the past couple of months. I put my regular portion on my plate & feel absolutely stuffed about halfway through it.

Absolutely! this started in 1st tri but it's not really getting better. Which is probably a good thing lol. I am not nauseated nearly as much, but I just can't eat as much  food!

Thanks for the feedback ladies! Well another positive side, this has helped me lose weight...lol.. I lost a couple lbs when the dr. weighed me yesterday .  And my husband gained them, he's eating what i'm not

I definitely am, and I don't like it.  I know we are supposed to try to eat like 5 smaller meals a day, but I work 10 hour days and they are very busy.  It's hard for me to sit there and eat several meals while I'm at work.  I hate how I get full so fast, and then when I'm hungry I feel like I'm dying.  The line between full and starving seems to be getting thinner and thinner.

Yup, me too.  I go from starving to full in about 0.2 seconds.

This is happening to me too. I feel like I have to eat small amounts but often because I am hungry more often.

Same here.  Though I do notice for me at least it's in the late afternoon, dinner time.  Lunch I've been able to eat a good sized meal but when it comes to dinner I can get through about half of a regular portion.

Yup. I'm definitely a clear-my-plate kinda girl and have not been doing that lately!  I see it as a good thing in general but don't like the feeling.  I also hate that when I feel stuffed, I feel it way up high.  I can tell my stomach is not where it used to be because when my tummy rumbles it comes from my sternum area!  That's the same place I can feel my stomach pushing up, up, up when I'm full.  No wonder I have heartburn so bad!  I'm hoping when baby starts pushing out, my stomach might have more room for a couple of months.

In the mornings i can eat now, i snack on fruits (YUMMY! I CAN EAT THAT ALL DAY) then at lunch i eat a bit and i'm super ful, dinner i haven't been eating much b/c I just don't get that hungry or i'm nauseaous..then at 3a.m I get up and my stomach is growling, so of course I'm not going to let my baby starve so i get up and drink a glass of milk or water (its my 2nd day that I can drink water..yay!)

Yep, I get full much faster than I used to.

yes, this!

I am, same happened before.  I have a small upper body too so as my ute is moving up and my stomach moves up I can tend to eat an entree like 3 diff times throughout the day before I finish the whole thing.

I am having this exact same problem and I hate it!  I am a teacher and I was so starving during my first class today that it was making me even more queasy than I normally am.

jessicamarierm

It's the exact same for me! I've been feeling much better for days, and then today I nearly lost it when I was nearly to the teacher's mailbox room. (We have an outdoor campus and the heat makes me sick.) But I keep feeling hungry all day. Then, halfway through whatever I'm eating, I'm full and can't stand the thought of eating more.

Squishy622

Definitely yes here too. I could have written your OP, I'm having the same experience! Not too concerned though, just really happy to have more of an appetite than I did before!

BubblyBride07

definitely getting full faster! We went out to dinner with friends last night and I was able to eat all of my side salad, and a piece of bread, but when my entree came I could only eat about 1/3 of it.  Eating the leftovers for dinner tonight

Sooo...I work 12 hour shifts on my feet as an ER RN and let me tell you it's a challenge to pee LOL...I met with a prenatal nutritionist which really helped in making little snack bags for myself each shift and setting an alarm on my cell phone to remind me to eat...it also helps with my nausea...hope it helps!
