Hungry all the time

I’m currently in my first trimester and I’m feeling hungry every few hours. My husband told me that I should endure and not eat as and when I’m hungry. Am I suppose to eat or should I endure 😣

I had really bad nausea the first few days I realised I was pregnant. Also couldn’t eat much at all but I was hungry all the time. So I could only eat soupy stuff to fill me up. The nausea medication really helped me and now I can eat a full meal without feeling like I need to throw up immediately

My dear, eat whenever ur hungry. B4 I even confirm tt I was pregnant, I already feel hungry every 1-2hrs. We can’t possibly eat the entire regular meal but many smaller portions & that is NORMAL! Do encourage ur husband to do some reading so that he can better understand u & his new role. 😘

Personally, the moment I got hungry, and if never eat. I will be nauseated and will throw up something acidic. So like the rest suggested, will be good to have some small snacks. Nowadays I bring snacks wherever I go, cos the hunger pangs will hit me every 2 hours.

please eat but don't overeat and do choose healthier food. you are lucky that you still have appetite to eat. for me, i felt nauseous all the times in my 1st trimester. i ate just because i had to eat something for energy.

Eat veggies, saltine crackers like those meiji biscuits, drink milk, and really, if you have cravings for unhealthy snacks - it's okay to eat them once in a while too. No raw foods like sushi or shellfish though.

Your hubby is absolutely wrong! It is normal to feel hungry! But of course different pregnancies are different.. Please eat whenever you feel hungry! Don’t starve and you cannot starve.. 😊

Please eat! It's such a blessing to have good appetite and most people have poor appetite pduring 1st trimester. You do need some extra calories when you're pregnant so just go for it!

What is your husband talking about sia. How can he ask a pregnant woman not to eat when she is hungry. Tsk tsk. Next time when he is hungry ask him dont eat must endure. 🙄

eat whatever you feel like eating. first trimester is the worse, some people gets totally turned off by food.

Eat whenever you want but definitely portion control. Don't want to risk gestational diabetes.
