I'm so hungry!  Always hungry!  I'm working real hard to eat the correct portions, plenty of protien and to space out my meals but it seems like an hour after I eat I'm hungry again!  Any suggestions?  Will my appetite supress after the baby is born?  I'm so scared that I'm going to stretch my pouch.

LOL. I'm right there with you. I went from absolutely no appetite to cavewoman gone hungry. I dont know this is the best advise but I'm eating my 3 meals and snacking on fruit any time I get hungry in between.

I would suggest you get your labs done. You might be deficient in something. With my son I was eating every hour to avoid vomiting for the first 5 weeks. With this one I experienced that at about 8 weeks because I had been on an Atkins style diet.
However, I've also noticed that my pouch accomodates more when I am pregnant and lactating. When i had my son I was sharing the food they brought me with my hubby and eating far less than only one day before. When my milk came in I suddenly wondered if they were bringing me less food because my DH was left with very litte food when I was done. lol
I  suggest you talk to your surgeon about adding snacks as well.
