Hunger question/quantity

[Guest guest]

Ok, I am starving, 24/7. I swear that I can't seem to stay full.

I'm not drinking with my meals, I'm getting in my protien, and if I

don't eat, then I get really queasy and weepy and cranky. Ok, that

being said, I also can eat way too much. Before I was pg, I had

normal full feelings at my normal amounts. So, it started not

slowly, but fast, one day I made my normal 2 eggs for breakfast, yes

I can eat 2 eggs. Well, that didn't even put a dent in my hunger

level. So I made 2 more, becaus eI figured, ok 1 bite and I'll be

full, then I can toss the whole thing, this is just head hunger.

Nope, ate the whole thing. And didn't have that ouch I ate too much

feeling. I can also eat a whole ham sandwich(I hate ham, but

apparently the food monster inside of me wants it on bread with mayo

and swiss cheese and lots and lots of mustard. I can't get full at

all if I don't eat this and the supplies are in the house). And

sweets, keep me away from them. Apparently I don't dump, and this

little food monster wants them all. I try to stick to a bite here

and there of what my husband is having so that I don't go crazy, but

I was working the other day and someone had donuts here, and all the

willpower I've had since surgery went straight out the window, and I

ate 3!! I was in shock. I mean it was throughout the day. Oh, and

my weight has been wavering at 205, where I was when I got pregnant,

to 203, where I've never been before pg, and to 206. So its not like

my weight is jumping way up. Is all this normal?? First time mom

worries. (Though I'm thinking that the hunger is a really really

good sign that this baby is here to stay, lol) Oh yeah, my pants are

too tight, and I can feel a little hard area, round ball like area

under my bellybutton, though its more like a grapefruit than a ball,

is this normal? Lots of questions, I know, but hey, more excitement

now than spazzing.
