10 weeks pregnant hunger decreased

im 9 weeks and 3 days pregnant. at 7 weeks heard the heartbeat and saw the baby. Everything looks good. Well i noticed my nausea isnt as bad anymore which i know is normal for this time. I maybe had morning sickness for 2 or 3 weeks at the most. So it hasnt been too bad for me. Thank goodness. I am concerned about the intense hunger. I was extremely hungry everything 3 hours and i had to eat or id be sick. This lasted for about 2 months. Well last week its pretty much gone for the most part. Im hungry for lunch and dinner. Pretty hungry actually. But i can go 6 hours without eating. Which i dont i usually eat as much as i can because of the baby. Is this normal to have decreased hunger? I read that it usually increases and then becomes a hearty apetite. I hope nothing is wrong. I still feel fatique but more energy. A my breast are tender still. Is hunger because of hormones or the baby? Thanks for the help and support. Im a firt timer so i have millions of questions lol

I am right there with you. 10 weeks today and I am not having nearly the hunger I have for the last few weeks. Before, I would have intense hunger pains like every 2-3 hours. Now, I am able to eat 3-4 times a day and be fine. I found your message because I was worried about it myself. I have noticed a dramatic decrease in nausea this week as well, so I bet they are related.

Yeah... that is exactly how I was this time around.  Around week 10 I freaked out because ALL of my symptoms suddenly declined... including being constantly hungry!  I wouldn't worry... I am still not as hungry as I was during the first 10 weeks of pregnancy :)

your hunger levels can change day to day, week to week with pregnancy.  i was wikced hungry for a while and then there would be days that i would not want anything.  it is totally normal.  try to make sure you are at least eating 3 meals a day and healthy food, even if you are not that hungry, have small snacks/

I would attribute it to the easing of the morning sickness...when my ms was bad I had to eat every couple of hours because if my stomach got empty I'd feel really sick...I think it is normal...try not to worry =)
