How Hungry Can You Get
By Mommie | November 12, 2008
Well, I’ve officially hit it. I’ve hit the time in my pregnancy when I’m so hungry I could eat my dog. Scares me really, as I’m supposed to be “watching” my weight. So I was wondering how in the world I could be this hungry…
From what I’ve read, it’s that your body needs the additional energy and nutrients for the growing baby inside of you. I’m hoping that’s it, as I can honestly just eat and eat and it would never be enough! I ate about 5 meals today and I’m still hungry.
I’ve also heard that the change in hormones can cause a dramatic change in our hunger and therefore appetite, just like PMS does for some women.
All I know is it will be hard to watch my weight if I keep thinking about food as much as I do…does anyone have an extra dog??

I have an extra cat. Doubt it’ll taste as good as a dog though
Just j/k.

i know exactly how you feel. I am 7 months pregnant and always hungry. I just hope this is the hungriest i will be for the entire pregnancy. I also gotta seriously stay away from sweets!

Every time my period is delayed a few days I start eating for two. The idea of me being pregnant makes me want to eat more. LOL!
