I'm 35+6 and the last few says I have been so so hungry.... Constantly. Even after i've eaten something I still feel really hungry. It's not that I'm just bring greedy and using pregnancy as an excuse to eat like a pig! I am genuinelly very very hungry. I've had 2 breakfasts already this morning as have hunger pains! I know you have an increased appetite in PG but this is ridiculous. Is this normal? Anyone else feel like this?

It's probably just a phase and in a couple of days it'll settle down. I am a firm believer in following your bodies needs when your pregnant, if your body needs food then go with it, it would be worse if you werent eating anything!

yes yes yes!!

I am always constantly starving at this stage (or I was last time).
Am just hitting 34 weeks now and the hunger has begun.
I really hate having to eat so much - but I really can't help it!
Last time at about this time I went to a curry house with my mum for her birthday and polished off a whole Biryani (of which I usually manage half a plate or something - not usually a big eater) plus chips and naan.
It has since become legendary.
