Forum : Pregnancy

i'm almost eating less as I seem to fill up too quickly, especially at the end of the day with dinner (we even eat at about 5.30-6). Try to go for a brisk walk so at least you're trying to work off what you eat without denying yourself!!

Hiya hun, i am preg with my 4th and i have found that 4 the first 12 weeks i seem 2 eat loads !!!! Like Trary said go 4 a nice walk occassionaly if u feel guilty, but u r preg so enjoy it !!!!! I find u need more in the first trimester as your body is working sooo hard ie the tiredness. Your metabolism also speeds up, so u will burn the food off quicker !!! I hope i have been of help ? Take care and feel free 2 get in touch love jo x xx x x

when i was preg,i didn't eat too much and the result was a tiny baby.eat only the necessarylike vegt and fruits too much fruit

I am exact the same! Sweet stuff for me too. Am 11 weeks, and I have put on 7lbs, is that too much??? It cos I am eating stuff that I wouldn't normally eat u see.... Advise please!! X

I eat what i want when i want and mainly small portions and little and often as i've just stepped into the 3rd trimester! I did weight watchers for years so have a discipline naturally installed in my brain! It goes against em sometimes when i'm really hungry cos sometimes i do deny myself through guilt..however its stopping me from overindulging..As long as yr eating sensible foods aswell as treats i wouldnt worry xx

This time around, I was absolutely convinced I must be carrying twins, I've been that hungry! It got to the point where I was eating a full dinner, then wanting toast literally half an hour later! Thankfully that's tailed off a bit now (although I can still eat for England), just as it did the first time after the first trimester. Don't worry too much about gaining some weight, just try not to scoff to much rubbish. Good luck! x

Hey kelly, when i first found out i was pregnant i was sick 5 or 6 times a day so i couldn't eat i lost a stone and went down to 7 n a half stones which was way too low then from 12 weeks to about 20 i started eating like a horse but i think it was just the misconception of eating for two when you dont have to. I'm now 28 weeks I eat 2 meals a day as i get full really quick just like tracy said. I wake up and have toast then about 2pm i'll maybe have a packet of crisps or a snack then i'll have dinner about 7pm and that's me.My bumps small i was 8 stone 6 before i was pregnant then i dropped to 7 and now i've gone upto 9 stone which i'm happy with.I've noticed i have developed a craving for ice cold coke cans so i think im just filling myself up with juice-not good for baby she'll be wired to the moon lol! Don't worry about the weight gain though everyones different and this is the only time you'll get away with eating like a horse so enjoy it while you can!
