did anyone else experience this?!

I am 38+1. I have been STARVING all day long! Like i had a normal bowl of cereal at breakfast..lunch came around and i had 3 of those frozen burritos (the small ones like in the family pack) then 15 minutes later i fixed 2 chimichangas (same size as the burritos) nd now i just ate a peanut butter sandwhich with a glass of milk. I am so hungry i feel like i haven't ate in DAYS.

Is it normal to have a MAJOR increase in appetite at this point?!?! Is it just my body trying to get the energy stores built up for labor??

Ive gained 30 lbs this pregnancy but if i keep eating like this ill gain 10 lbs in the next 2 days! Im just sodarn hungry!

The last few weeks, your baby is strictly putting on weight so this is completely normal. No worries :) if you're hungry, your body is telling you it needs more fuel so stock up while you can!
