Suddenly starving!

deborah

I am rarely ever hungry in general (even before pregnancy. After years of dieting and then before pregnancy IF I don't have much of an appetite)

The first four weeks I couldn't stand the thought of eating anything but eggs, lean meats (precooked) and salads.

The smell of raw meat being cooked made me vomit.

For protein I could eat cheese, salmon, and rotisserie chickens as well as eggs.

For the past two weeks I can't even cook eggs. Sourdough (my prev favorite) I can no longer stand. Can't even look at salad or anything green really.

I've been craving nothing but carbs! Ramen noodles, pasta salad, chicken Parm with pasta, and weirdly enough CEREAL! (I HATE CEREAL. actually I've pretty much always followed a keto-light diet)

Cravings and aversions have been absolutely wild this time around.

The biggest surprise after eating a large meal before bed I woke up at 6am starving! Before I got pregnant I wouldn't eat until 2pm and then cram a days worth of calories in a five hour period without ever going hungry.

My appetite has frantically increased over the past few days as well as my cravings. I haven't been following any diet since I've found out about baby, just eating what and how much my body wants and I've lost about four pounds.

I've had four babies but this is uncharted territory for me. Is anyone else in the same boat?
