anyone STARVING??? - Page 2

[dantesmama]

I keep going back and forth between "ugh, food" and "OMG FOOD!". I've been starving today. For breakfast I had a bowl of oatmeal, and I was still hungry so I had a cup of yogurt, and I was *still* hungry so I had a banana . . . and then we went for a walk which worked up my appetite again. (At that point I just moved on to lunch.) I'm also insanely thirsty. I'm drinking eight or nine bottles of water a day.:

For me, it really does help. It is the only thing that works pretty much instantly in brings my appetite full circle. I too am either starving or want to puke. I can sense the latter coming on though, and usually vaporize as soon as I feel it progressing where I dont want to eat because it all makes me gag, but am starving. Then I can pretty much eat anything in a couple minutes.

Can you explain this 'vaporizor' thing? I have no idea what you are talking
about.

So far (and may it continue) I haven't had much nausea... Two prior
pgs (one to 7 wks, one to 11 wks) and I was SIIIIICK every hour of every day.
I attribute feeling good now to being much healthier than I was before, but
I feel like I'm walking on a precipice where any moment I could topple over
into constant nausea.

I too have to eat ALL DAY LONG! Sometimes I have trouble
figuring out what to eat, and nothing sounds good, but I usually just force
myself to eat *something* and I feel better. Not necessarily satiated, but
better. Then it starts again a few hours later (or minutes, depending!)

Same here.

Besides being pg, I am nursing a boob-obsessed 12.5 mo. So I am starving an thirsty constantly. It sucks when I am hungry but having food aversions at the same time : What do you do? I am also very picky this time like I was with ds. Like "I am hungry for mixed nuts and I must have them RIGHT NOW!!!"

It is nice to be able to eat so much without feeling guilty:

I am starving also! Today I made a quiche to keep in the fridge to munch on, and some Hummus to dip into with carrots. I'm trying to keep healthyish snacks on board so I dont just pull down the chips or pretzels! I seem to need to eat about 6 times a day right now! I try and interspace it with pregnancy tea which also helps a little!

[PiePie]

me! need to follow pp and get some healthy snacks on hand. i feel like i'm constantly cooking, doing dishes, or scrounging for something to eat!

Yes, it's weird because I alternate between really hungry, really thirsty, really nauseaus, or really tired.

I swear I'm CONSTANTLY Hungry I eat and like 40 minutes later my stomach is hungry again!

Looks like my hunger phase has passed on me. I am not going thru that must eat Now call. Its more I feel it but it not so strong anymore. It also does not hits first thing in the morning more like 10am now and then again at 4 pm then again at 1am. We ate late today because my OB appt was 2 hours long. So we did not eat till 1pm and it really did not bother me. Very strange.

Ok, it's 8:30 in the morning and I am dying for some chinese food!
I cannot wait till the Chinese restaurant opens at 11:00!

[mommysusie]

Ok, so I couldn't get a break from work to go get chinese, but it's ok, because now I want seafood anyway! I should be getting off in a few mins and I am going to go home and grab the family and head to Red Lobster! I just know my hubby is not going to want to go. We were just there yesterday!:

[sanguine_speed]

I'm just 4 weeks and experiencing this too. But I totally do NOT need all this extra food. I plan to be very conscientious this pregnancy about food as I gained a lot of wait with both previous pregnancies. I am a few pounds overweight to start with and I think 15-20 pounds altogether is my aim. Last time I gained 50!

OMG, Chinese sounds sooooo good right now. Darn it, I knew I shouldn't have read this thread.

[mommysusie]

Ok, I'm eating for like the tenth time today. Right now it is a salad from Fridays but while I am eating it, I am craving crab legs!

[shell024]

mmm....crab legs....chinese....

I just made myself two bean n cheese burritoes w/sour cream, salsa & lettuce. Yum.

Yesterday was the BEST though....FRESH mahi mahi that my dad caught baked in coconut milk with garlic, onions, & ginger, with organic rice and organic greens from our garden. All complete with some fina'dene' (Chamorro word here on Guam for a sauce made with soy sauce, lemon or calamansi juice, onions and hot peppers). YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!! Drooling just thinking about it again
