Overwhelming Hunger

[JustJayy]

Anyone else have a demanding hunger? I swear ever since I reached the 3rd trimester it's like I don't eat enough, even three meals a day has to be accompanied by at least 2 snacks. These late night refrigerator runs are starting to get on my nerves. I've woken up 3 times this week and had to go make something to eat half asleep just to curb the hunger enough to get back to sleep I feel like a fatty lol and I know it's not something I can help but it makes me wonder how demanding my little man will be when he finally arrives

I'm only six weeks along but I'm hungry all the time...

I am having a boy so that may explain the hunger.

So glad i'm not the only one, I've made a habit of keeping things ready for myself just invade because when I do get up I want the easiest thing to get to I don't want to have to cook or warm up anything, because the two times I did I left the oven on in the kitchen half asleep lol well I've only got three more weeks to go hopefully it gets a little better, although after I munch I sleep so well and when I don't I just find myself up at 7 in the morning unable to go back to sleep afterwards so I guess 2-3 isn't as bad as it could be.

Hi, ladies I felt like I was starving at 6 months and was constantly snacking day and night. Eating whatever when ever. I just found out 2 weeks ago that I have gestinal diabetes. I never had it with my other pregnancies. I can't help but wonder if I had made better food choices If possibly I could of prevented it. Now,I am working with my Doctor and dietition to regulate my sugar levels.

I to am having a boy. 39 weeks and 4 days and I have been waking up every night since I was 26 weeks, munching on everything! I wish you guys the best of luck, my word of advice would be to keep fruits cut up as well as sandwich's made, something small just to munch on. It doesn't always have to be huge!

I've been like that I just can't stop eating and then snacking right after I eat. I'm never full. I don't get up in the night though, I'm too tired cuz I don't get any rest all day. I'm having a girl.

P.S. How many others with increasing appetite know you are having a boy too?

[VesselofGod]

Me too!
Woke up at 4:30 and had to eat!
20 weeks almost 21
This has happened about 6 times now.
I read it happens often when pregnant with a boy.
They say it's the one old wives tale that holds any weight.
If you have an appetite of a teenage boy they say you most likely having a boy. Has to do with the testosterone floating around in your system.
Well turns out correct in my case, we found out this week  I am having a boy! I guess we just need to make healthy, nutritious choices when hunger strikes! Wish you all the best!

I wish I could say the same! I am 9 weeks pregnant and I don't feel hungry at all! In fact I have to force myself to eat!!

I will be 33 weeks tomorrow and I am having the same problem. I have been waking up in the middle of the night to eat something because I am hungry. This has been going on the last 3 weeks. Yesterday I had a double burger and fries and 15 mind later I was back hungry.
