How did your appetite change during pregnancy?

before pregnancy, I always watched what I ate and was slim with a BMI of 22. Now, however, I’m listening to my body and I’m eating when I feel hungry. And I’m definitely consuming more than I did before pregnancy.
I’m curious to know, how much more did you eat while pregnant? Did you feel hungrier more often?

Very little - I went off salmon during my first pregnancy but that's the only change I experienced over two pregnancies.

I’m 18 w and after a difficult first trimester I’m starving and can’t go more than 2 hrs without food!

I felt nauseous for the whole pregnancy so ended up eating less than normal... then had the baby, started breastfeeding and was absolutely ravenous for months!

I had some changes in taste - I went of prawns and earl grey tea. Nothing major.

I mostly ate normally, and was roughly the same weight a few weeks after birth than before pregnancy. But with DD2 in particular, I was occasionally ravenously hungry and HAD to eat an absolute tonne of something specific (eg a full english, which isn’t my thing usually).
