Increases Appetite

I've noticed that I tend to be hungry every 2 hours it seems. I'm only 6 weeks, is that normal so early in a pregnancy?

Yes. Be happy you can eat and you're not nauseous!   I had to eat a shopping bag of food every day with my first--prepared lots of to go & on the run snacks while working a desk job.  My friends giggled at my daily shopping bag.

I make cereal muffins with extra egg for protein & blueberries--freeze them so I can thaw 3 per day.  You can add extra protein powder if you like that.  Hard boiled eggs are also great & portable. Protein will get you through.  I also ate a baked potato every other day.

Yes! I would get up in the night to eat too! Make the most of it.. it will likely quickly turn into not wanting to eat at all lol
