So hungry all the time

I'm 16 weeks and 3 days pregnant all I seem to do the past few weeks is want to eat all the time. I'm having healthy snacks but sometimes they just aren't doing it. I have a thing for porridge too which I could eat morning noon and night which I suppose porridge isn't a bad thing.

Is anybody else the same? Some days I'm worse than others. Baby must be taking everything in there ❤️👶 xx

This is me too! I'm 18+6 and for the last few weeks I've been feeling so hungry, I'm trying to eat healthy snacks too most of the time at least! I'm sure it's much needed!

Ive had this on and off throughout now 29 weeks.
At the beginning i couldnt eat nothing then had a stage of not being able to stay satisfied and was constantly hungry. Id eat and within half hour if that i felt sick with hunger... it eased off again. Aslong as your eating sensible its fine :) x

@elb1504 glad it's not just me then. Yes I'm trying to having healthy snacks fruit etc

@Boymummy3 it's probably in the last 2 weeks so probably the start of the second trimester it started. I'm the same I'm better off eating little and often cause I don't stay full for very long after a meal x

Same here. I am 12 weeks tomorrow. I can’t go longer than about 2 hrs without food! Start to feel sick. I am eating nutritious meals but obviously having some ‘treat’ snacks now and again.

I am just eating way more carbs than normal. And have a lovely bloated stomach too

Eat all the food and be happy that you’re hungry. It must mean that baby is going through a growth spurt. Smile My appetite has been up and down throughout pregnancy, but I certainly remember wanting to eat everything all the time after my sickness subsided. I’m now in my 29th week and my appetite had gone back to normal, although I crave anything and everything sweet. The best part of pregnancy - having the perfect excuse to just keep eating. Grin
