i feel like the hungry caterpillar. I swear if i don't eat every 3 hours i feel like i'm going to starve to death! I think i'll blow my weight gain this last 2 months but oh well. I figure if i'm that hungry, i should probably eat.
Oh Erika I so am right there wit you on that. I will get really sick if i don't eat often. I like you agree that it must mean we need to eat. Now my problem is I just need to make better choices when I do eat.

As long as you're making good/decent food choices, eat! Your baby's trying to gain his baby fat now
If I go more than a few hrs between meals I get light headed and my blood sugar gets off, so I eat regularly to avoid the roller coaster.

I feel like something must be wrong w/ me. In my past pg's I was always the way you girls are describing yourselves, this time, ever since I hit the 3rd Tri. I have no appetite, and have to force myself to eat, and when I do eat, I get full so fast and not to mention the heartburn, ugh, the heartburn.
This is just odd for me, as normally I'm a bottomless pit when preggo!

I've had to eat every 3 hours for the past couple of years...so I'm used to it.
I haven't really changed my diet much since I eat pretty healthily normally, but I've still managed to gain close to 30 lbs somehow.

I eat and eat too, then of course I get heartburn as a result. Today at work they brought donuts for the nurses and I am pretty sure I ate 3 flipping donuts (ouch). And since then Madelyn is running like a gerbil in a gerbil ball right now!!

My desire for all the wrong foods is pretty explosive! i am going to try to really watch it now. I am about 30lbs gained. they say the last month that you could lose weight due to the growing baby shrinking your stomach....
I pray it is so! LOL!
I'm feeling that way too. Of course that could explain my 6 lbs weight gain at my last appointment. With Jamee I was never really hungry so it's really weird for me to feel hungry.
