why am I sooooo hungry??????

I dont get this! I eat because I feel like my stomache is eating itself then 2 mins later I'm starving again!!!! I can see why women can gain so much weight. Is this the same for anyone else????? Should I eat????? I have been trying to eat fruit when I'm hungry but all I want is carbs!!!! I feel like I could eat all day!.

try keeping wheat thins and fruits around...but if u feel hungry...yes...you should eat. always listen to your body...but don't overdo it...baby only needs 300 calories a day to grow normally...so the rest is calories you'll be trying to shed later.
