FEED ME!!!!!!

My last post was venting about how I have been freaking out about my weight loss. Lost 40lbs since March. I am now 18ws preggers. Since I have calmed down, again I really appreciate all of you ladies giving me good advice, the food bank has been opened up!!!! Last week was the first week where I didnt have all day morning sickness. I was eating smaller meals. Now this week....... I feel like I am hungry every 2 hours. Now I crave water, along with the sweets. Thanks goodness there are no sweets in the house..... Any time I eat or drink the baby does flips in there. It's like a constant thing. The hubby has even timed my meals. He'll say "the baby is hungry again." He said he's happy to see me eating because I havnt been eating. I just have no clue why I am sooooo hungry all of a sudden.

Your hungry because your eating for 2. Your body will let you know when you have to eat, its ok to feel hungry. Remember that a happy healthy mama makes for a healthy happy baby :)

I had the same experience! Until about 16 weeks I was sick as a dog and lost 30lbs. Around 18 weeks, I became a world class chef (meaning, I was cooking huge meals everyday) and had a ferocious appetite! Now, at 33wks, things have leveled off and I've been eating normally for the last month or so. I've only gained about 8lbs back, but the baby is growing on track and all is well! I guess my story is to say...you're normal!! Indulge a little and enjoy the pregnancy now! LOL

Ok, I guess I need to just calm down and listen to body. Do anyone stomach rumble loudly? It's like it rumbles alll day? LOL it scares the baby. She jumps almos every time.

 LOL, mine doesn't growl like it did pre-op.  That's funny! ;)

yes!!! my "blind stomach" is crazy loud  - my baby jumps/ moves too when it's doing it's own thing. Great to know you have an appetite - you're going to be just fine.

Hi

I am 30weeks and it's just hit me now. There are days where I eat a small amount, I just can't fit much in and then there are the days where I eat and eat ( it's 12:02am here and I'm cooking 2 rashes of bacon). I have gained 6lbs so far and Bug is bopping around. From what I have read it's all normal.


Best wishes
