Increased Appetite


For the first time since I got pregnant I’ve noticed an increase in my appetite.  Until now I’ve just been eating normally and that’s been totally fine.  In fact my friends point out that I actually eat much less than they do when I’m out to lunch with them.  However, the last few days I’ve just been really hungry and continue to feel hungry even after I eat.  I suppose this is the stage where the baby is growing the most and putting on the most weight so maybe that has something to do with it.  I really don’t like feeling hungry though and I definitely don’t want to over eat.  I like where I’m at and my weight gain has been slow so I’ve been happy with that.  When I wake up at 6am I’m usually starving so I’ll have a bowl of oatmeal.  Then when I wake up again I have a bowl of cereal as a second breakfast.  Then lunch later and dinner really late.  Sometimes I’m still hungry immediately after eating lunch.  Maybe I should find some healthy filling snacks to try.
