Full and hungry?

I looked on our November group for ladies dealing with being full and hungry at the same time but didn't see anything.  Am I the only one?  I get full after eating...like 30 after eating I feel full/burping/ nauseated slightly..BUT I'M STILL HUNGRY!  I'm 17w3d.  Am I already running out of room down there?  Baby is 5 in long so a good size.  
I just keep wanting to eat even tho I feel full.  I've been doing the whole small meal thing, too, since suffering in the first trimester with ms. 

Is anyone else dealing with this? Have u found something helps?

    This is me! I eat, feel huge and full. And want to snack 5 minutes later. At work I really can't with my schedule but when I get home jt takes allll my self control.

    This is me too! I feel hungry ALL THE TIME - even when I just ate. I haven't found anything that helps, I just fight for self control and make sure I'm at least getting what I need and stay hydrated. It had gotten better the last couple of weeks, but it's suddenly back full force. I never seem to pack enough food for work, even when I feel like I'm overdoing it. Makes me wonder if I'm having twins and it was just missed at my 9w ultrasound!

    I feel this way too. Especially with how bad I get heartburn. Staying hydrated and eating is tough, because I always feel full and have a sensation that it's all sitting right at the back of my throat.

    Same here! Starving and bloated all at the same time... there is no happy medium.

    And if I overeat (which isn't clear until about 20 min later) I get wicked heartburn that persists throughout the live long day. Of course, I learned that one during my first pregnancy and still can't seem to get a handle on it.

    @desoky01 - my OB cleared Zantac as perfectly fine to take to control the heartburn. The relaxin that works on our hip area to be ready for labor also relaxes the top of our stomachs which what allows the heartburn and acid re-flux to come with a vengeance. Also, try to avoid lying down  or reclining too far after eating because that will make the symptoms worse too.

    I had to switch to mini meals all day. It's kind of annoying to eat like 8 times a day, but it's making the full but hungry thing tolerable.

    Well just must be some of the fun of pregnancy!  I figured out when I'm full though bc I ate some ice cream and threw it up last night after being unsure if I was hungry or full.  Yeah I was full.  Plus I laid down.  It was a sad waste of coffee,fudge and almond ice cream. :/
