9 weeks’ preggers and always hungry!

I’m now about 8-9 weeks’ preggers and feel like I’m constantly hungry, especially in the period between lunch and dinner. I’m getting pretty bad nausea that tends to worsen when my stomach is empty. Any new mummies had the same experience? Everyone around me keeps telling me to just eat but I’m worried about excessive weight gain.

I feel it too. I bring a small portion of nuts with me and a packet of vitasoy daily. For healthy snacks, you can eat fruits e.g apple/banana as it is easy to carry and no fuss. Yogurts are good too. Just watch the amount of sugars you take in. And drink water.. I read that hunger pangs can come from thirst. I just started to weigh myself daily too. But I let go once in a while for some chips. Dr actually just said no raw food/alcohol/tea/coffee during my first visit.
