Since my period got delayed, I've been feeling unusually hungry all the time. I literally want to eat every hour. Is excessive hunger a common symptom of early pregnancy, or is it just me?
I remember being hungry all the time and my mom would make fresh upma or poha every few hours. Staying at home with parents made it so easy to manage those constant cravings. Just eat healthy homemade food.
Honestly, it can be quite normal because your body is working overtime. I experienced it too, but it's always best to ask your gynac during your routine checkup to ensure nutritional needs are met.
With both my kids, my hunger was totally different, but yes, it is very common. Just don't use it as an excuse to eat junk for two. Focus on high protein snacks like paneer or nuts, it keeps you full longer.
Beta, badhti bhookh toh bilkul swabhavik hai is samay. Bas dhyan rakho ki bahar ka jyada teekha mat khao. Ghar pe bhuna hua chana ya dahi-poha khao, baby ke liye accha rahega.
Haan na, literally har do ghante mein bhookh lagti thi mujhe. It feels so weird but quite normal I think. Just keep some roasted makhana or dry fruits handy for quick snacking.
Haha enjoy this phase while you can sleep and eat in peace! I was a bottomless pit during pregnancy, and now with my newborn, I barely get time to finish my tea. Eat well, u will need the energy later!
Oh wow, even I have been reading up on this because we are planning. I get so hungry sometimes and wonder if it's an early sign! Let's hope someone who went through this can guide us.
Haan beta, humare yahan toh kehte hain ki pet mein ek aur jaan hai toh bhookh toh lagegi hi. Mere waqt pe mummy dabba bhar ke laddo rakhti thi. Khub dhyan rakho apna.
Actually, in my second trimester, my appetite went crazy. I used to wake up at 3 AM to eat biscuits! It was just how my body reacted, but every pregnancy is different.
Increased hunger is normal, but do get your regular blood tests done as suggested by your doctor. In my case, my appetite shifted because of thyroid levels, so keeping a check with the gynac really helps.
