anyone waking up hungry?

Lately I get full really fast, so I don't eat as much for dinner as I used to and I often don't snack before bed. But sometimes I'll wake up at like midnight (I go to sleep early, so midnight really is the middle of the night for me) and am starving! I feel like I have to get up and eat if I want any chance of falling back to sleep. Anyone else dealing with this??

Re: anyone waking up hungry?

  • Yes yes yes!!! It's happened to me a number of times! I get up and have a banana or a glass of chocolate milk. If I don't - I risk getting queasy.

  • I've had this problem - waking up at 3 or 4am starving - since about 5 1/2 weeks.  It happens to me about 3x/week, and I truly cannot fall asleep without eating something (have tried, and just toss and turn and it gets worse and painful, then I get nauseas).  It SUCKS to have to get out of bed, especially when you're so tired the first tri anyway, but it helps to get up, have a quick bowl of cereal, and go back to bed.  GL!

  • I've learned to start keeping pop-tarts next to the bed or something i can grab and eat quick without having to get up. I also find a glass of chocolate milk to be really helpful, as long as I don't drink it too fast. I cried over this for days around week 7.

  • Yes! But for me, I wake up at 5 or 6am, and I am beyond hungry! It was really bad earlier on, lately it only happens once in a while. I keep an emergency granola bed near the bed now!

  • Yep, if I'm awake for awhile, I get hungry and nauseous.  I try to go back to sleep and if I cant, I'll have some bread or cereal.

  • Yes, it happens to me all the time. I have crackers on my night stand and I choke a couple down and then go back to bed.

  • I wake up starving almost every night. I am keeping a little snack on the nightstand with a glass of water. If I don't have my 2:45am snack I have terrible morning sickness when I get up. Glad to know it's not just me, but sorry you ladies are going through it as well. No fun at all.

  • yes i wake up and i need a cup of milk and a snack or i feel sick
  • I'm feeling the same mess except mine is around 3-4 am.  I have crackers by the bed now, about 5 crackers and a drink of tea and I'm good to go.  If I don't snack I end up with really bad stomach pains.

  • I started keeping cracker on my bedside table for that very reason. I often wake up starving and queasy but am too tired to go downstairs to get something to eat. So far, it has really helped.
