Is feeling hungry sign of pregnancy?

Question

I've been feeling much hungrier than usual lately, almost constantly craving something to eat. Could this increased hunger be a sign of pregnancy?

Sushma Gaikwad · Answer

I totally understand! That sudden, intense hunger can definitely be an early sign because your body is working so hard to create a new life.

Monika Behera · Answer

Yes beta, increased appetite is common. Make sure to eat healthy snacks like roasted makhana or dry fruits instead of heavy junk food when you feel hungry.

It can be a sign due to the hormone changes. However, don't rely only on hunger, wait for your missed period and take a home test for confirmation.

Haha, for me it definitely was! I was raiding the fridge at midnight even before my missed period, the baby was already demanding food.

I'm also feeling unusually hungry these days and secretly hoping it's a positive sign for this cycle! Let's hope we both get our good news soon.
