Anyone else bloody ravenous ALL the time?!

[Misty9]

Just found out I'm pg (5wks ish) and I'm starving hungry all the time! Today I felt so hungry I had pangs and was really dizzy and light headed. Eating doesn't really touch it for more than about 10mins I am at least craving savoury healthy stuff though!

Do I treat this as hunger and eat? I'll be the size of a house at this rate! Mind you, the heartburn set in at 10wks with ds and my appetite disappeared, so maybe I should load up while I can?!

I'm 7+3 and am always hungry!!

I have spent my entire day eating - just picking at things here, there and everywhere.

My motto for my pregnancy so far has been to just go with the flow and react naturally to however I have been feeling....so if I'm tired I have a nap and if I'm hungry I eat

Like you say, heartburn and sickness could be right around the corner so just listen to what your body is telling you NOW and do as you're told

I was like this in the first trimester and it seems to have returned in the third (am now 30 weeks)! I mentioned it to my midwife as I just felt like I was eating all day long and she said that if you're hungry you must eat- I assured her that it was not boredom or 'eating for 2' but an 'I feel lightheaded and my stomach is rumbling' hunger!

I was terrified that I'd put on loads of weight- I've now put on almost a stone and a half, which is on track, and measure correctly for dates so don't panic!
