Today I'm hungry all the time

What the heck! I've been snacking and I'm running out of snacks and I'm getting extra hungry to the point i'm having a headache. I am drinking plenty of water (i get up to use the bathroom every 10 minutes)

am I the only one?

PS i'm 18 weeks

Re: Today I'm hungry all the time

no you are not the only one. This happens to me from time to time throughout the pregnancy. (It won't last forever). You are probably going through a growth spurt (thats what i call it lol). I am in my 23rd week now and I have had the same thing. The past three days I was just starving, ravenous and eating- never full. Well I wake up today, my stomach is all different and it was obviously all necessary for the baby. i had gained 3 pounds in 1 week, but this morning I had went back down on the scale and don't feel as hungry. I think sometimes we just need the extra!! The body knows what it is doing. If you feel you need to eat- do it- your baby probably needs it. During those few days every once in awhile- I listen and indulge in extra meals and snacks. Other days, I stick to eating normally.

My little girl likes fruit so I'm going to stock up on it!

I'm having one of those days today- waiting to get out of work at 5 so I can go home and eat!

Re: Today I'm hungry all the time

i actually blame the weather today ... and the fact that i'm exhausted.

I went to Wendy's for lunch and was sooo full, a little later, i ate a kit-kat-like bar (not sure what it's called), now i'm fighting the urge to eat something else, but i think i'm losing that battle.
