Anyone else hungry all the time?

I'm a FTM and feel hungry all the time! I even sometimes wake up in the middle of the night with hunger pains and am up everyday at 5am for breakfast. I get full pretty quickly but in a few hours I need to snack again! I'm only 7 weeks and thought this ravenous hunger would develop latter on, but guess not anyone else feeling like this?

Re: Anyone else hungry all the time?

  • Yes!!! I feel that way too. I'm trying to just eat healthy stuff whenever I'm hungry. Cravings make that difficult sometimes!
  • Loading the player...
  • Me too. Most of the time I go for fruit, but cheese puffs are my weakness!
  • You're not alone. :)
    I'm also a FTM... It's kinda weird, but even when I'm feeling pukey (like this morning!) a snack still sounds helpful. Haha, I feel like an absolute pig sometimes, especially when my hubsand can go all day without a meal!
  • A lot of ladies recommend saltines, but tortilla chips are my munch of choice. Corn!
  • Yes I feel like I could eat all day and as someone else said even when feeling nauseous and pukey I still want to eat lol! Especially pepperoni pizza - can't seem to get enough!
  • I'm starving all the time!!

  • Yes, soooo hungry. On my second lunch now!
  • Yes all the time and my husband just laugh at me for it lol
  • Consider this a true blessing I haven't been hungry for weeks and it's hard for me to eat in exited to get to rhe hungry stage
  • All I've done is eat! Everyone makes fun of me for it!
  • I probably eat a little bit every two hours. I take my lunch, so I just spread out everything I bring over the course of the day and pack some peanut butter crackers to tide me over on the drive home. If I don't eat, it's not pretty lol.
  • I wish I was hungry.. I'm having the opposite problem. Nothing sounds good and I'm nauseated whether I'm eating or not. It's such a gross feeling.
  • I'm feeling both queesy, peckish, nauseated or really hungry through out the day, sometimes almost at the same time lol. It's frustrating and difficult to find a balance heh. Do you eat something before you go to bed? I have started eating some knackebröd with cheese before bed and when my husband joins me lateron he brings me a glass of soja milk.. that usually holds me over till around 5am and then I simply eat another cracker or such.. During the day I eat smaller portions at a time but more often. And I've decided that this thing about pregnant women and pickles makes sense; pickles help me feel less nauseated:)
  • Oh man I wish I had that problem. I've been getting sick 3-4 times a day for weeks. I have to force myself to eat.
  • Ravenous. If I don't eat every couple of hours, I suddenly begin to feel as if I haven't had food in DAYS. My preference has actually been cheeseburgers. Not fast food, but the good stuff, on wheat or brioche buns with avocado, bacon, mushrooms and a nice, sharp (pasteurized!) cheese. Yum.
  • Absolutely starving and NOTHING seems to satisfy me! I made grilled cheese and homemade tomato soup at about 1:30 and I'm making myself wait 20 more minutes until it's 3:30 to have another one. I wake up in the middle of the night starving, I wake up in the morning starving ... it's craziness. I am trying desperately to make healthy choices because I am working really hard to minimize my weight gain but ....
  • Yes, big time! I need to eat every few hours or my stomach starts loudly growling! But I also get full really quickly once I start eating. Pizza has been my major craving thus far!
  • This is me! I try to eat fruit, but my body really craves dairy and protein so I want meat and cheese all the time. I've gained 3 pounds in the past month but I don't know how shocked I should be or how much is water weight.
  • I am trying to hold off on telling DD but she has commented on my constant eating several times.

    I just had the best street taco to hold me until later when I will have a salad with grilled chicken...But then I will want a grilled cheese and pickles around 10:30. Luckily DH is right with me on the cravings and greed. I don't feel as bad.
  • It's 5:30 am and this is my second time having to wake up and eat, I'm starving all night and have to keep snacks by my bed ugh. Hope this part is done soon
  • Yup right there with yah.
  • Yes, to all of this. I wish I wanted veggies!

  • @mrscaterosales‌ that's me to a t!
    Keeping snacks at the side of your bed is a lifesaver haha.
    You don't have to wake yourself up to much by going down stairs and grabbing something to munch on. Deal.
  • @mybabynumber2‌ Exactly. I'm thinking I probably don't get enough calories in a day, because I notice if I eat a big cheeseburger and fries, I don't wake up in the middle of the night! But if I eat light healthy snacks all day, I wake up like I haven't eaten in days haha. This kid wants me to be fat!
  • FTM and the hungry pains are a real thing lol I've read that if you arnt getting enough water and fluid throughout the day it makes the pains worse .

    I find on the days I get the recommend 64oz I don't wake up in the middle of the night hungry ! So I think it works l
  • Me and I have gotten hungry in the middle of the night too. I should cave and have some crackers here. But I think it might excite the dogs haha. I eat like every two hours during the day otherwise my stomach growls. Sometimes the cravings are not for healthy stuff :/ but I try!

  • Thanks @keehank1‌ I'm really going to try drinking more water! I've done better than usual, but still not getting quite enough in a day. Definitely not 64oz! We'll see how it goes
