I'm soooo hungry, please help!!!!

Hi Everyone,

Ok I'm 6 weeks pregnant, and this is my 3rd child.  I've lost 100lbs. previous to this pregnancy and I've never had symptoms like this before with the other 2.  I'm ALWAYS hungry, I mean every 2-3 hrs even after BIG meals :S is this normal.  I've been working out when I can but not as much as I used to my energy is gone :( and I feel so exhausted.  I'm already wearing maternity pants, and I'm showing a little :S My mom jokes its tirplets I doubt it is. but still this is weird.  I've already gained 7lbs!!! yikes and its bothering me i know i have to gain weight to help the baby but still.  That seems like a lot of weight I haven't even been eating that bad, I've some ice cream/popcorn etc... and a few chips with dinner the other night but other than that I haven't even had any chocolate from Easter.  Am I doing something wrong here? Please help I"m going to the dr. tomorow so i"m going to be asking whats going on, maybe things are different this time becasue my metabolism was higher before pregnancy who knows? Any suggestinos would be helpful! :) thanks

in pregnancy large hormone changes result in HUGE water weight fluctuations.  so a lot of that gain is water.  you're also increasing your blood volume, your uterus volume, etc....i guarantee most of that weight is NOT fat but water, blood, organs, etc.

you're going to be hungry.  that's what pregnancy is.  each pregnancy is different, so dont' compare it to your last ones.

you're fine.  good luck
