9 weeks and can’t stop eating!

Is this normal? I know I’m not supposed to be eating for two but I’m so hungry all the time as well as not being able to finish my main meals. I often don’t fancy my dinner and don’t completely finish it but I’m having about 3 bowls of cereal a day in between meals, snacking on nuts and cheese and whatever I can get my hands on. I just ate some cornflakes and still feel hungry! Xxx

I was exactly the same at that stage. I was just permanently hungry. It has tailed off a bit now in the second trimester.

I’m 9+4 and eating anything that doesn’t get moved out of my way fast enough

Same here - i ate everything in sight with both my pregnancies until about 12 weeks, then it got better. Still snacking a bit more then i probably should (36 weeks now) but weight gain has slowed down to a sensible amount.

@Cafeaulait27 this was me in my first trimester! I would often be unable to sleep because of the extreme hunger and had to start keeping fruit on my bedside table in case I woke up in the night starving 😂 I’m 19 + 3 now and I think the extreme hunger started to go away early into the second trimester, although I do still get very hungry very quickly from time to time x

I’m glad it’s not just me!!! I’m hungry again now in bed! All I want is bowls of cereal for some reason. Obsessed with cornflakes!

I’m literally shoving peanut butter, cheese, toast, nuts in my face all day like an animal. Haven’t dared to weigh myself xxx

Yeah just eat when you need to. You'll probably find the hunger only lasts a week or two, it comes and goes throughout pregnancy. I'm 20 weeks and having a bit of a feeding frenzy at the minute too.

Yup totally normal I'm afraid, your making a human it takes energy 😂

I'm 10 weeks and I have this but it comes and goes. Some days I'm not too bad but others I swear I cant stop eating. Trying to make sure when I have one of those days its healthy foods I go for😂🐷
