Is anyone else just eating all the time? I feel like such a fatty haha!!!

I'm 14 weeks and so far I've put 5lbs on. It doesn't help that we now have a bowl on the coffee table full of Quality Street (as is Christmas tradition every year.) I'm currently sat staring at it with indigestion, oh the joys of being pregnant :)

Oh yes. It's an endless quest to find the cure for my nausea. But it's never healthy. Cakes, pies, you name it, I'll eat it!

IME your appetite will even out over your pregnancy. If you are hungry, then eat, because there will be days when you don't want much.

That's what I figured. I was underweight to begin with anyway after recovering from an eating disorder. I am about to throw my scales in the wheelie bin. I figure I'm better fidning something else to eat than all the chocolate though, that can't be so good for baby!! :)

I find myself eating the kids leftover tea ( from their plates Blush ) sometimes i feel so hungry. Not good! Would be much better off eating sensible meal at the same time. Difficult to be sensible all the time.

I too cannot stop eating! I am trying to eat healthier snacks, but am not succeeding very well.
I don't have a scale, but at 12 weeks, I have a bump (ok, some of it is baby, but not much) and I can only fit in one pair of pre- preg trousers.
I ave very mixed feelings about Christmas for that reason alone!
