Im around 14 weeks and suddenly im hungry literally all the time, like every 2 hours I want to eat something. After the nausea phase this is such a change. Is this normal yaar?
Because you are literally building a whole human, your body wants fuel and snacks at 2am lol. Its the hormones and the extra work happening inside. Totally normal, just keep healthy snacks handy so you dont raid the fridge for junk like I did.
Its the hormones plus your body feeding the baby, hunger goes up especially in second trimester. Eat small frequent meals instead of one huge plate, keeps the hunger and acidity in check. Fruits, nuts, curd are good to keep around.
The hunger is real and normal, its your body working overtime. Just one gentle tip, choose filling stuff like protein, dal, eggs, paneer over sugary snacks so it doesnt spike your sugar. I had GD so I had to be careful, small balanced meals helped me most.
Actually its totally normal yaar, body needs more energy for baby na. I used to get hungry every 2 hours. Just keep some fruit, makhana, nuts ready so you eat decent stuff and not only maggi at midnight.
Oh same, I was hungry all the time and craving everything. Apparently the growing baby needs more energy so the appetite jumps. I just made sure most of my snacking was somewhat healthy, with a few treats thrown in because life.
