Do you feel hungry in early pregnancy?

Im like 6 weeks and bohot zyada bhookh lagti hai, every 2 hrs i want to eat something. Thought early pregnancy means nausea not hunger? Is this normal too?

I feel hungry every two hours but the moment I see food, I feel like throwing up! Does anyone else experience this crazy hunger-nausea combo?

Yukti Kapadia · Answer

I used to wake up at 3 AM feeling absolutely starving in my 2nd month! Keeping roasted makhana and dry fruits near my bed really helped me back then.

I am planning my pregnancy and always wonder about this. Is the hunger really so sudden? Good to know what to expect!

Kadambari Ruia · Answer

Yes dear, extreme hunger or even zero appetite are both normal in early weeks. Just eat small, frequent meals so your stomach doesn't stay empty for too long.

Yes, body needs extra energy now. Try having coconut water and light homemade snacks to manage the hunger. But if you have extreme vomiting and can't keep anything down, please consult your doctor.

My mother told me to eat well as the body is working hard. I still asked my doctor, and she advised me to eat small portions of healthy food instead of eating for two.
