Whats do you eat on an average day?

[Sini]

I eat cereal for breakfast, about 5 oranges +other fruit during the day, and yoghurt. I do have either some meat or egg to get some protein once a day.

Dinners/cooked meals havent been my thing during pregnancy.

 

[Miss Duke]

I have cereal for brekkie, then for lunch usually a salad with tuna and then a yoghurt and fruit.

Dinner tonight was a baked potato with salad and more tuna!

I had a cereal bar there before heading up to bed.

Hi, I would love to be able to eat more but I have virtually no stomach left and constant acid reflux in the back of my mouth & nose, so I'm not able to eat much at all
Today:
1 piece toast & peanut butter, glass water
Steak pie (really fancied this!)
A small potato
Sweet corn
A crumpet & jam
Water
I last ate at 5, it's now 9 & my food is still just sat in my oesophegus. I need to eat more but simply cannot fit it in! Water is more important as I'm struggling to stay hydrated enough! Come on baby, I want my stomach back

Breakfast: Cereal and a Banana, or Toast and a Banana.... plus some water and a cup of tea

Lunch: Soup, Bread and Butter, Quavers, an Apple and Ginger Nut Biscuits, water and orange juice

Tea: Chicken Fajitas and Rice, water

I have also snacked on cheese on toast, another pack of quavers and some cranberry juice. Oh and more ginger nuts and some golden syrup cake

I always seem hungry, like im not eating enough...

I just wanted to get a rough idea of how much the average pregnant third trimester lady eats on a daily basis?

Thanks

If you always feel hungry it maybe that u arent eating the right foods. High protien foods are better than unhealthy carbs, sugars ect.

 

[poppytal pope]

i think it varies in my 1st tri was really hungry amd ate crisps which i dont normally do , 2nd tri had a thing for fruit and fish, then went back to normal graing and small meals now back on the fruit and fish thing , i get hungry days where i eat loads then it tapers of.

 

[JackiePed]

Third tri has enough worries without stressing about weight gain and diet. I let myself worry about that in first and second tri, and by third tri I just sort of do my best, but tell myself it's going to be over soon.

snack: yogurt and piece of fruit
Lunch: sandwich of some sort, salads sometimes, fruit or side of veggies like carrots or something
Snackeanuts or almonds, or a fiber one bar/something like it
Dinnerrotein/meat of some sort, whole grains (pasta, rice, quinoa, or bulgur) and tons of veggies or sometimes lentils since I love those.
