1st tri and eating everything in sight

[faith2015]

Oh no... I feel like a cow

I am 8 weeks and I have already gained 4lbs

I used to be able to eat a breakfast bar and be good until lunch and then good until dinner. not any more!!!

I eat the bar then I snack, then I snack some more, then I snack some more, lunch by 11:30 and then snack some more, snack some more, popcycle then home to cook dinner

(snacks - pretzels, snap peas, cheese its, oatmeal cookie, pineapple, watermelon etc (not all bad stuff ))

never ending, ever hour on the hour I am eating grrrrrrr

I know the feeling! I am only 5 weeks and 5 days and have already gained more than you! I've gained 2-3 kg's.

I was like that with my DD and I'm like that again this time. I have to eat almost constantly or my blood sugar plummets and I feel very weak and tired. Btw I gained a total of 57 lbs with DD!

Don't get me wrong... I'm over the moon excited to be pregnant again but I get tired of eating... LOL... never thought I'd say THAT! I guess I prefer it to morning sickness though.

Well I am glad I am not the only one!!! I just can't seem to stop it

Another issue I am having is the (TMI) constipation. I have tried 3 different kinds of prenatal's and can't find one to help

I would've given anything to be in your position in first tri. Instead I was so nauseous all the time that I was barely able to eat at all, and ended up losing several pounds. My doc said it's fine in first tri, but man, I hated being sick all the dang time.
