I'm starving hungry even though I've eaten dinner and had yoghurt and toast 30 minutes later. I also wake up hungry.. it's not dehydration as I chug a lot of water.

I don't remember my pregnancy with DS so I don't know if this is normal. I know baby is putting on weight but would it really affect me like this?

Have you been screened for gestational diabetes? It could just be because baby is having some major growth spurts now before he/she makes their appearance! I'm feeling the same Hmm

I have been screened and I passed the test. Could I get GD after being screened?

I've wondered that too :/ they only test up to 38 weeks though

I was screened and my results were absolutely fine but I have wondered too if I could develop it later

33/34 weeks is classic growth spurt time as baby piles on the fat for birth. Eat away if your stomach can hold it! I'm 30wks and just noticing the increased appetite :)

Hi, new here & just joined :) I'm 31 weeks & have noticed a big appetite increase last few days, definitely sounds normal at this point:)

34 weeks tomorrow and no particular appetite at all! Confused
Im a fat bird larger lady who generally eats like a horse. I'm not sure whether to be Grin or Confused !

I'm eating when I'm hungry (and more ha!) But I'll definitely speak to my mw about the GD thing as it seems as you can develop it after the test
