Extreme Morning Hunger!

[x Helen x]

Ok this is getting crazy now. I am waking up SO hungry in the mornings, my belly physically rumbling. This is so unusual for me, I never eat breakfast in the mornings and usually last until lunch with no desire to eat at all, until recently of course!

It seems to be gradually getting worse. I woke up at 6:30am today because of the hunger pains and couldn't get back to sleep, I'm usually a late sleeper as I work late in the evening.

I was starting to give up hope as I've had AF pains for the last week or so and am due any day now (still getting bfns), but now I'm thinking surely this can't be coincidence? REALLY hoping this is it for me!

I totally get what you mean!! My alarm goes off at six and I wake up STARVING but I also feel quite nauseous and just lie there with my stomach rumbling til I can psych myself up to eat, how long have you been getting this? X

So strange isn't it! I've been getting this for about 5 days now, it started as mild hunger and is gradually getting worse and worse, not that I'm complaining as I'm really hoping it's a sign!

This is the one symptom that I've had where I KNOW that I can't be imagining it, as my stomach is quite literally gurgling with hunger. I have been skeptical about the other symptoms as I feel like I might be bringing them on myself through wanting it so bad.

Had a couple of days where I was craving chocolate milkshake, that was weird. so I drank a glass of milk and then felt fine after that.

Other than that just AF pains, except they're not constant like they are when I feel like she's on her way, I seem to get waves of them.

What other symptoms have you had?

Oh and constipation yesterday (TMI!)

 

[Veronicaco]

Oh my goodness! I was craving chocolate milkshake too! I had to go to the shop and buy a big bottle of yazoo. That is weird huh?!
My stomach is rumbling really loud too in fact I am going to eat in a min as it's actually uncomfortable.
I wonder if anyone else has this?

I had this. I even got a but when I went in for my bloods they came back negative This was back in July this year.

No way!! How strange is that?! I thought I would google the chocolate milk cravings just in case it was a symptom and I was surprised how many women have milk cravings during pregnancy, apparently it's your body demanding calcium if you don't have enough of it (which makes sense as I barely ever eat dairy).

I just had some toast but my stomach is still gurgling at me, although the physical hunger seems to have calmed down a bit.

Really hope you get your , I'm starting to feel so hopeful for us!

I've still got a while. DF said he wanted to go back to WTT until he finishes up school which is fine. I would wake up at like 4am and would want like chocolate chip pancakes and bacon and I HATE breakfast lol I am def not a morning person either and I was that month. I would get up every morning and make breakfast from scratch . I ended up having a 60 day cycle it was awful lol

That must have been so frustrating for you

Do you think that it's possible for our bodies to "create" pregnancy symptoms because we are constantly thinking about it, even if we didn't know that these were actually symptoms in the first place? The human body is a strange old thing, isn't it?!

I don't want to get your hopes up cos these symptoms are so hit n miss, but I had this last month n did get pregnant-unfortunately I miscarried early but was def a positive sign for me. GL.x

 

[Darlin65]

Oh yes. There are actually studies where people have been blindfolded and told they were going to be given something hot to hold in their hands and even though it was really cold their mind made them believe it burned them.

Sorry to hear that dlj2

I'm going to go out and buy a FRER later then will test tomorrow with FMU. Have only been using the cheapies so far so fingers crossed for a tomorrow, eek!

 

[Darlin65]

I hope you get your I wonder sometimes if I had a chemical but doubt it since it was a blue test prob just a falsie

 

[x Helen x]

I don't know Darlin, does sound as though something was going on there? Seems strange to have so many symptoms, a bfp AND a missed period?

 

[Darlin65]

Yepp but all is back on track. I have had 2 cycles since then so oh well. Things can get crazy though so go get that FRER!!!

hey ladies i didnt want to read and run but last year i fell pregnant and i craved chocolate milkshake i drank 2 big bottles of yazoo a day
now this month i been drinking alot of hot chocolates so im hoping thats a way of my body telling me that i need milk for some reason

 

[Veronicaco]

That so odd that choc milk is a common craving! I am not very confident fo this month tho as my boobs seem to have gotten smaller and I got a bfn this morning

Veronicaco I had a BFN this morning too (on a cheapy), and haven't had sore or swollen boobs. Just been to the shop to buy a FRER, going to test with that tomorrow morning.

I'm excited... I really think this could be the real thing this time! Peeing every five minutes today too which is promising!
