LOL! It's so funny you mention this. When I was pregnant with my first daughter I wrote in her journal questions to ask the doctor at my first prenatal appointment. One question was, "Am I supposed to eat EVERY time my stomach rumbles? I seem to always have a rumbling stomach!"

When you become pregnant you need to eat smaller, more frequent meals. Also your bowels are already beginning to migrate north to accommodate your growing uterus so your stomach may be feeling just a little more cramped than usual.

The growling eventually isn't so bad. But yes, keep saltines or something with you (almonds and other nuts, low-fat cheese sticks, etc.) to keep your tummy from rumbling. Remember that you only need about 500 extra calories when pregnant.

Oh yeah....your taste for foods will change!! Then it'll go back to normal once you've had your baby! I would KILL for any kind of sandwich when pregnant. I wasn't a big fan before that and it was surprising to me when I had that craving and now I'm back to my old feelings about them! LOL
You will literally eat all day long but hey...you are growing a human being!! :) Congrats.
Best thing to do is just snack on healthy things all day and drink plenty of fluids.

Hi, I am 6w 1d now, and I am hungry all the time, however sometimes I have no control over what I like, some food I may have liked before eg: chocolate, french fries, my mouth goes completely dry when I try to eat them. In this pregnancy I virtually choke on my own saliva thats how much extra I have. Mmmmm food am now imagining what I may have in the pantry to eat...sometimes I feel like I could trample over people to get to food lol.
