3AM starvation anyone?

[wannabemama24]

I woke up at 3 am STARVING. I literally felt like I hadn't eaten in a day. I ate a decent dinner and it wasn't early. I'm not quite sure why I was so hungry. I kept trying to go back to sleep until I couldn't take the hunger anymore and got up to eat at 430. Is this normal pregnancy fun? I felt insane! I'm glad I ate though I don't know if I can get back to sleep now!

I wake up sometimes feeling really hungry but so far I've managed to ignore it and just have some water and go back to sleep.

Happy eating

MEEEE TOO!! Oh it's horrible. I have to eat.. I can't ignore it. I was never hungry with my first, but this time I'm starving all the time and surprisingly haven't put on much weight (4 lbs so far) So I have no idea where it's all going because I haven't been eating all that healthy either!
On the plus side, is there anything more delicious than a mid-night snack when you're starving?

I gave into my midnight snack last night and the only thing it resulted in was my first heartburn of the pregnancy. Lol probably won't be indulging in the midnight snack again.

I was the same with my son one time I made my hubby go out at 3am to get me crisps so I could dunk them in hot sauce o.o he still tells the story to this day. My son is huge now- I'm sure you just have a nice big baby coming

so me!! Its getting easier to ignore the hunger pains now but am still awake at 3am every night!! Happened with ds#2 as well. I had to eat a bowl of cereal before I could go back to sleep!!

 

[brittany12]

ahhh this is me!!! It happened lastnight too! It sucks so bad because when I get these (I get them ALL day not just middle of the night) it makes me nauseated! I mean I literally eat ALL.DAY.LONG! I just have a small issue of NOTHING sounding good to eat!

Speaking of which.. I just ate dinner an hour ago and I'm having these hunger pains now like I haven't eaten a thing today! so here I am about to have to go find some kind of snack to eat right before I go to bed! That cannot be healthy?

My go to is a lunch size yogurt when I get the hunger pains at 3am haha

LOL! I feel the same way sometimes, especially in the first trimester. I just want to eat everything in sight. Sometimes I even think about food before falling asleep lol.

Starvation and thirst. Super dry mouth.

Starvation and thirst. Super dry mouth.

Yeah! I have had that since what seems like the beginning of pregnancy. I always have a water bottle on my bedside table because I get up during the night to pee so thirsty it feels like my mouth is full of sand!

 

[wannabemama24]

Thank you ladies! I am so glad that I'm not the only one. I have heard of night time hunger later in the third trimester but I didn't think I'd get it this early. I'm just hoping I can still keep myself from gaining too much weight!

 

[maisie78]

Not happened to me yet but I am.expecting it later as the same thing happened when pregnant with dd especially once I hit 3rd tri.
Like you I would wake up ravenous and.have to go eat at all times of the night. Baby is probably having a growth spurt x

 

[RaspberryK]

I eat something and have a glass of milk before bed so I don't get hungry in the night xx

 

[Kiwiberry]

I woke up at 5am this morning and had myself some cereal and a prilosec!

 

[PrincessMommy]

With my son I ate cereal like a mad woman! I would go through a box a day sometimes o__o

I feel like that now! I have been eating cereal like crazy.
They never really give you enough cereal in 1 box .

 

[PrincessMommy]

They definitely don't!! My hubby would get me a box the day before and then come home from work the next night and have to get another he would just look at me and shake his head. Don't judge me and my cravings!!! O_O

 

[Kiwiberry]

LOL! OH is the exact same way. He just sighs a little to himself .
