Since I became pregnant, I feel like I'm hungry all the time! Even after a full meal, I crave something more. Is this constant hunger normal during pregnancy?
Increased hunger is natural, just try to eat roasted chana or curd instead of junk food. But if you feel constant extreme thirst along with it, do mention it to your gynac to check for gestational diabetes.
Extreme hunger is very normal, but just keep an eye on your sugar and thyroid levels too during your routine checkups. I felt ravenous, and keeping my thyroid levels in check helped manage my metabolism.
Your body is working overtime to grow a whole new life, so it's bound to demand more energy, dear. Eat small healthy meals frequently and don't stay empty stomach.
Beta, this is the time to nourish your body. Keep roasted makhana, dry fruits, and fresh fruits nearby so you can snack healthily whenever hunger strikes.
Oh, when I was at my mum's place, my mother used to keep fresh laddoos and coconut water ready because I was hungry every two hours! It's completely normal, your baby is growing.
