Hunger...

[red1hen]

Currently 8+3 and absolutely ravenous ALL the time! If I’m not eating I feel sick. As soon as I eat sickness disappears! I darent step on the scales!!! Anyone else?

I had that all the way through till about 30 weeks. It's ramping up again at 34 plus extra nausea!

I've put on the upper level of recommended weight but I'm still well within bmis etc (I think I needed it!)

Mw said just go with it!

I had that at 8 weeks. I think you're growing the placenta!

I've also had it other weeks here and there, we've decided they're growth spurts as it has seemed to match the boys getting a nice boost at their frequent growth scans. Probably rubbish but makes me feel better!

I'm 8+5 and the complete opposite! Sickness and nausea so bad that the idea of eating makes me 🤢

I was like that at 8weeks. It's subsided and I must have needed it because I'm now 11 and I've not gained at all yet.

From about 12 weeks on I had the hunger, I just couldn't stop eating, appetite has gone back to normal 3 months after the birth and I'm about 4lbs from my normal weight, impossible to find time to eat with two children so it's a relief 😂

Yes i was ravenous and ate all the time! My friend was the same! However even though I felt huge and was terrified of weighing myself I'd only put on a few pounds so you might be pleasantly surprised - I felt like I'd put on a stone so was relieved!

That was my whole first trimester! I was happy to take the extra pounds over the nausea.

I suffered from sickness until about 15 weeks, so when I felt OK to eat I definitely made up for the times I couldn't.
I put on just over 2stone, I'm not sure if that was good or bad tbh

I had that in first trimester into second. In the first trimester if I became too hungry I would have to drink juice before I ate. It was like the hunger if ignored for too long would make me then feel too nauseated to eat but drinking juice fixed it.

In the second trimester I had the extreme hunger for about 3 weeks but minus feeling too sick to eat if I became really hungry.

Yep, i'm just over 12 weeks now and its calmed down a bit but still eating small amounts constantly throughout the day

I've had extreme hunger all the way through my pregnancy which is very unlike me as I'm not normally a big eater. I've gone from a size 6 to a size 12. I'm now 38 weeks and really hoping that my appetite goes back to normal once the baby is here!!

I've just entered this stage at 8+4. Until earlier this week I was eating normally, or maybe even less as I was getting full quicker due to bloating. I had to have cheese and crackers before bed last night as I was so hungry!

I'm 9+5 and was eating hobnobs in bed at 3am this morning. The hunger is unreal!

I was like that. Just eat.

I’m the same. If I don’t have food in my gob I start dry-heaving.

I was starving for periods of time then couldn't eat at all for weeks, now 31 weeks and have no space for food so just eat if it helps! You will probably even out over the course of the pregnancy

I had this at 8 weeks too. It was so awful, I would eat a full meal then an hour later I would be doubled over trying to shove food in as I would be sick if I didn't. I hated it, it was worse than the sickness. It only lasted four days luckily.
