My entire life revolves around food...

mandmmandm
in 2nd Trimester
I feel like I spend vast amounts of time planning meals, shopping for food, preparing the food, making lunches to take to work, and actually eating. It's pathetic! I'm hungry *all* the time. And if I don't keep up the constant snacks, I get lighthead/cranky/headachey. I was like this to a lesser degree before I was pregnant, but it's reaching a new level of insanity now...Anyone else?

    I was at that point in my 2nd trimester...And there is not way to modify it but to eat lol...or drink plenty of water to satisfy your hunger. Milk was also a good crutch for me too, cause it coats your stomach. After about 3-4 weeks the "always hungry" feeling should pass...but then it comes back third trimester lol..Stick out tongue

    Oh and ice cream helps too! And it increases your calcium intake.

    Yeah, I feel like all I've done today is eat and sleep (not true, but I have consummed a heck of a lot of food).

    Mine, too.  I feel like I eat all the time.  I take snacks with me in the car just in case because I can't go too long without eating.  I was shnarffling crackers and water on the way to church this morning so I wouldn't get all woozy during the service.

    That's exactly how I felt at the beginning of first tri. It's normal for your hunger level to be crazy at that point - baby's doing a lot of growing. As you move into the latter part of second tri, your stomach will get a little more cramped for space and your appetite will probably become a little more manageable.

    I feel exactly the same way.  I said to DH this morning "I'm SO sick of eating!!" I'm tired of thinking of something to eat/make, making it, and then within an hour being hungry again.

    Not to mention I can't go anywhere without eating first and possibly taking a snack with me.

    That's how I was in the 2nd tri. Enjoy it while you can, once you get to the 3rd, the baby squishes your stomach so much that you can barely eat anything anymore!
