35 weeks and starving!

Anonymous
I am about 35.5 weeks pregnant and always feel hungry. I eat the same number of meals and food amounts that I've been eating all along, but all of a sudden I cannot fill up. Is this happening to anyone else? I am hungry all the time, even immediately after eating a full lunch!

If thats how you feel now, get ready for nursing: thirsty and starving 24/7!!

I started getting very hungry around my 34th week. Baby's putting weight on now, so it's natural for you to get hungry.

I feel the same way! At 34 weeks I am not only starving all the time but turning into an emotional weepy mess!!

I'm 34 weeks and can't stand to look at food right now. I feel sick and yucky, really have to make myself eat. I'm able to stand milk and OJ. Of course I too am an emotional mess.

I am 35 weeks and also starving all the time...but can't really indulge in foods that look super yummy b/c I have gestational diabetes. No matter how many veggies I eat or how much protein I am literally hungry at the end of each meal / snack throughout the day. You are not alone!

I was the same way. Which could help explain how I gained 3 lbs per WEEK in the last 8 or so weeks. (to be fair, I think about half of the weight was water.)

but hey, you're almost done. it'll be over soon - good luck!

i'm 8 weeks and starving...even though i'm nauseous at the same time. this doesn't bode well for reasonable weight gain, ugh.
