Of course I am not literally starving, I had breakfast and am just waiting for lunch to be ready but was just curious. I am pregnant (9 months) and was just wondering if I am feeling really really hungry is the baby experiencing the same feeling?

No, the placenta is continuously feeding the baby all day.

No, the baby is fine. You on the other hand might need a snack. Some protein something that will fill you up. The baby is constantly eating that is why you feel so hungry!

Your baby isn't feeling hungry. Even if you were literally starving your baby would still receive what little nutrition your body had. Your body automatically feeds the baby first.

No, The baby will take all the food it needs and leave you "high and dry" do to speak. The baby will live because of the survival mode. You on the other hand, need to eat when you are hungry because your body needs it.

The baby will live for a while even if you get no food. The baby will actually starve you.

The baby will always take what it need from the stored nutrients in your body, but you need to keep up on your health too. Believe me you will need your strength on the coming months and years.Good luck to you and your baby.

The answer is absolutely no. The baby takes whatever he/she needs from your body (fat, reserver, whatever). And they do not feel hunger until they are born and the cord cut. They are being fed via the cord in the uterus.

Your baby will get plenty of nutrients from the Placenta, but he/she may feel the anxiousness and stress you may get from starving.

No. The baby will get nutrition from you through the placenta.
