How do you ladies do it?

Question

I'm just over 6 weeks pregnant, I eat then an hour later I'm starving again. The worst bit is its making me nauseous but the thought of food makes me feel worse. I have so much housework to do and have to walk the dog. If I eat every time my stomach rumbles I'll be as big as a house!

Answer

This happens to me! I'm a little over six weeks and I feel like I'm starving. I snack all day. Granola bars, fruit, veggies. 
If I don't snack, I feel like I'm going to puke. Try snacking. It's helped me. 
1st baby for me too!

Answer

I wish that happened with me! This is my first pregnancy and I was sick all in my first trimester and it stopped in the beginning of my second it was terrible lol

Answer

Just eat whenever your hungry. I was like that in my first tri too. Then you go back to eating normally. I feel like your body is working so hard at the beginning to build this new life that we get so hungry. But then our bodies get use to it and we don't have to eat as much! My doctor said even when a pregnant woman rests all day her body is working as hard as if she was running all day long!

Answer

Sh@&$ me too I stay hungry

Answer

Thank you to all who have replied, I must sound ridiculous! I've been taking your tips and forcing food down, hopefully it'll do me the world of good. I feel so much better when I'm laid down, it must be my body's way of telling me to rest. x

Answer

Eat salt crackers first thing in the morning, it helps tremendously with nausea. Never skip a meal: always have breakfast, lunch, and dinner. In between meals when you get hungry, snack on healthy things such as; yogurt with raisins, apples, bananas. Keep hydrated and take a small nap whenever you can, it'll help you so much. Good luck!

Answer

Thanks for replying ladies.. I suppose I should be thankful that my hormones are like this! I never had anything like this in my first pregnancy which ended in miscarriage. The only food I seem to fancy is ice pops and crisps haha! I can't even be bothered to dress myself never mind do housework! x

Answer

Eat!! Enjoy it !! From 7-11w I couldn't keep any meals down. I was always starving. 6 smaller healthier meals gets me through the day without feeling like a fat fat LOL

Answer

Answer

I was like that up until about a week ago. I'm 11 wks now. Just eat small snacks every hour or so.
