Actually, no! I had real troubles with no hunger whatsoever for the first three months, but I think it was just because I was so sick that I was scared that anything I ate was just going to come back up again.
Ended up being forcefully reminded to eat at regular intervals

I had days where I felt like that with my first pregnancy. STARVING like there was a hole in my tummy! Eating constantly kept the nausea at bay a bit as well.
This time I haven't felt the same although there are still times where I NEED to eat or I know I'm going to spew (even now). But not as much as last time. ------------- SJ Callum - Dec 2008 Daniel - Oct 2010 |

Yup i think most of us got it Its perfectly normal, your body is doing some way out crazy stuff right now and is burning food up at a rate of knots. You need the food so eat it!!!!
Like I said, I still have it though it is slowing down thankfully!!! -------------

I was like that with my pregnancy with DD but then I also get it before AF so I cannot really take it as being a possible symptom, hope it means something for you

I ate all the time, was the only thing that made the nausea go away, even if only briefly. Tried everything, ginger...
I always craved carbs like rice, toast and potato chips! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

| Im normally a very picky eater, and all of a sudden (2 weeks before my period was due) i was eating anything that would sit still. Its sort of tailing of now, probably because im entering morning sickness territory.... |
