Isn't it too early to be so hungry???

redneckmomma25 · January 2012

I'm at most 6 weeks right now. I feel hungry and so thirsty! I swear I can eat a meal and then an hour later I'm hungry. I'm waking up in the middle of the night feeling hungry. I also am really thirsty! I haven't read about either of these being symptoms at this point in time.

I'm the same way. I just try to make good choices and drinking plenty of water.

I have been getting more and more hungry lately. Like, I can eat a meal and then I feel hungry a little bit afterwards. Also, no idea if this is a symptom or what, but I've noticed my lips are super dry all the time, I find myself licking them or putting chap-stick on them.

I find myself hungry more often and I'm only 4 weeks!

I've been super thirsty recently, especially over night. I wake up for my early morning pee and feel like I swallowed sawdust. I'm just trying to stay as hydrated as possible.

Nope, definitely not too early. I was really thirsty the first few weeks and my appetite was little...then around 7 weeks I couldn't stop eating.

nope.. I was starving at 6 weeks, and then about 6 wks 3 days the nausea hit and i've been having waves of it since. So now i just eat whatever sounds good at the time, and I drink water constantly! Geeked

Haha thanks guys. Sometimes I think I'm making this stuff up. Like my head is playing tricks with me. Still sinking in being pregnant. So sometimes I think I'm making this stuff up. Glad I'm not. Makes it a little more real to me.

This is one of the only ways that I thought I was pg, because I was hungry ALL THE TIME. It's cut back since then and I have my days where I'm hungrier than normal, but it lasted a good 3 weeks for me that I was constantly hungry and could eat all the time.

This is so relieving to find. I am having the "too early?" issues as well. But my thing is, I cannot eat a large quantity, but I am ALWAYS hungry. I don't want to over eat...but then I don't know if I should really NOT be eating whenever I get hungry.

I feel just about the same. Hungry...start eating and start feeling full. So weird! What I've been reading is to eat smaller and more meals. Like 6 meals a day. I thought I was just feeling hungry because I'm trying to eat healthy too, so I feel like I'm not eating enough to satisfy. So maybe 6 meals may help.

I'm about 5 weeks, and so far today I've had 3 meals and 2 snacks. The middle of the night is the worst. I'm going with the theory that if I'm hungry, then I'm going to eat. I've never been a big eater, so this is really weird for me.

vpeazy · January 2012

i am totally with you! i fell starved all the time even if i just ate a full meal! before this baby, i ate 1200 calories and was NEVER hungry...and as far as the lips i thought it was just me! i drink over a gallon of water everyday as well as gatorade so i'm not dehydrated, but my lips are always dry and i'm always thirsty!!!!

NettieHarrington · January 2012

This is exactly how I feel! Things are generally normal in the morning when I first wake up, but as the day progresses, I notice that I am constantly hungry. Even then, I can only tolerate eating a rather small amount. After that, it's not very long before I feel ravenously hungry again--but can't think of anything appetizing at all. I've stocked up on lots of fresh fruit, applesauce, crackers, etc. to just try to ditch the meal thing and be streamlining small amounts of healthy foods all day. Let's hope this helps!

I am the same way, I actually have had to get up in the middle of the night and eat a snack. I'm hungry about every 2 hours. I also could drink gallons of water! Guess we just have to listen to our bodies!
