Do you feel like you are eating all day?

I'm a little over being hungry all day...but I find that eating a large meal makes me feel horrible (bloated).  So I eat something small all day long. For example today:

1/2 english muffin dry

oatmeal

Chicken fajita for lunch + banana

apple

granola bar

My coworkers probably think I'm turning into a pig.

    From what I've been told that's actually better for us pregnant ladies. I guess doing several small meals is the way to go.

    I just wish I actaully felt like eating that often!

    Count yourself lucky!

    My DH told me i've "turned into a human garbage disposal" I just never feel full! But in my defense like you I eat a lot of small meals nothing huge.

    Small meals help me not get sick so I pack little meals and have three while I am here. Never mind I ate breakfast before I got here and plan on making or ordering dinner when I leave.

    All. Day. Long.

    I take something with me from my lunch break back to my desk so maybe people won't notice me in and out of the lunchroom so much. And I keep snacks in my desk.

    Yes I do!!!

    Today I had half a piece of lasgna at 11, and the other half at 2.

    But that has been what I have been doing for the past 4-5 weeks, and I lost 3 lbs at my appointment so I am not too worried about it.

    I've been eating all day long, too. I'm just happy that I haven't had m/s in a couple days, so I'm trying to eat as much as I can while I'm feeling good.

    I too feel like I'm always eating. However if I don't eat every couple of hours then I start to feel sick.....Some say they didn't gain until later in their pregnancy, I've started already.

    I think my husband thinks I am a pig as well....OH WELL! 

    Like you, I eat small snacks throughout the day:  bagel, orange, rice cake, peanut butter bread, bla bla bla.  I can't eat big meals right now either, it makes me feel HORRIBLE. 

    The sickness tends to go away after snacking.

    Not only do I eat more, I've noticed the way I eat has changed.
    My husband was laughing at me because I eat like I am in prison and have to eat quickly and protect my food from others.

    Yes, I feel like I am constantly hungry.  I do notice that I get full faster, but then I'm hungry again in an hour. I don't feel like I should be this hungry this early in the game...

    ME TOO.  I'll have a nice, yummy dinner, and 2 hours later my stomach is growling like I haven't eaten all day.

    Yes, I feel that way too, but since I got pregnant, I can't seem to handle the 3 big meal thing (breakfast, lunch, dinner).  I seem to do better with a lot of little snacks or mini-meals through out the day.

    Yes!  I eat all day every day or else.... The nauses kicks in  after that I get dry heeves.  I try to beat all of that to the punch!  I eat constantly.  Not big meals all day of course, but I am always munching.  Fruits, veggies (I've just started carrying baby carrots), yogurt, etc.
