Constant hunger in first trimester

Is anyone else just constantly hungry? I’m 8 weeks and feel like I need to eat every few hours or else I feel really sick, the problem is all I want is carbs and I’m so bloated and look about 6 months pregnant but it’s the only thing that seems to help me feel better. I’m even waking up in the middle of the night & have to eat or I feel dreadful. I guess I’m lucky that I’m not suffering from sickness but just worried about how much weight I’m going to put on before I even get to 12 weeks 🙈

I’m exactly the same and already have high bmi 😕 extreme intense hunger but no nausea or sickness. I’m quite anxious so think that adds to it. Hoping once 12 week scan is here (I’m 10 weeks) and i know all is ok I can focus more on healthy eating xxxx

What’s even more annoying is that I’m starving but as soon as I start eating I’m full really quickly but then hungry again an hour later x

Everyone is hungry in the first trimester. Enjoy it.
It lets up in the second trimester.
I put on 8 lbs in the first trimester and only 2lbs in the second and third, so I was at my pre-pregnancy weight immediately after delivery. So I figure your body probably knows what it’s doing.

I'm exactly the same. And I'm on holiday in France at the moment so the temptation is everywhere. At home I've been sticking to hummus and cucumber if I get hungry but not here!
If I don't eat every hour or so my nausea is out of control and in comes the acid reflux. Great fun!

I’m exactly the same and I’m
9 and a half weeks. Constantly hungry but as soon as I eat I’m that full and feel like I’ve been to an all you can eat !! I have gone off a few foods though. I made pasta bake the other week and when it had cooked I opened the oven and the smell was revolting and I couldn’t eat it! Also gone off beans too haha! It’s my first pregnancy and I don’t feel pregnant yet, but the food situation im finding hard work, I never know what I fancy and never want a big meal anymore x
