Practically everything in pregnancy is normal your body does really weird things. I don't remember being hungry this early on but once I hit about 30 weeks I got out of bed most nights, got myself some breakfast cereal and climbed back into bed to eat it. It did the trick and 10 minutes later I was back in the land of Nod. If I tried to ignore it I would be awake for hours

I think it's absolutely normal. Your eating for two now. I'm 20 weeks along and during this pregnancy i'm not eating as much as the last. Thank god lol. Eat when your hungry and don't when your not. But when you are hungry try to eat healthy foods like meat, fruit, vegetables, nuts etc. Try to cut down sugary foods also. Also keep up your calcium intake good for both you and baby. I don't mean chocolate, ice-cream and the like either lol. Even though i know it's REALLY hard. And lots of water sometimes hunger can actually be an indication of dehydration. And gentle excercise. All the best : )

its very normal throughout your whole pregnancy to be hungry at night. Make sure you make your meals smaller and eat before you get so hungry you eat everything in your cabinet. I had to go from eatting 3 big meals a day, to eatting like 6-7 small meals. For some people, not that many meals are needed, but since I'm slender and have a fast metabolism my body required more. Have a pretty decent breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and in between snack. Have some fruit, or crackers and cheese, or bagels, or a sandwich or something in between each meal. And at night before you go to bed you find or think you may get hungry and have to wake up, have another snack right before you go to bed, and you should be good to last throughout the night.

Are you eating enough throughout the day, I wouldn't worry, and would eat as hungry through night whether pregnant or not needs sorting or it will keep you awake, take a banana to bed providing you don't suffer heartburn, full of potassium and also apparently aides sleep.

Completely normal.
Whilst I was pregnant I craved mashed potato 24/7.
I always made sure I had things handy when I was hungry. I made premade salad, things I could reheat, i had some biscuits and a bottle of drink handy next to my bed also.

Yes, if you wake up hungry at night you should have a small snack like apples and cheese or a peanut butter sandwich. That's what I do and it helps so I don't feel so hungry in the morning too.

Perfectly normal. Sometimes a pain, especially at night and it isn't in the house. Then hubby has to get up and go out and seek it for you. I lived in an Italian town when I was pregnant with my first. I craved mexican food!! Hubby went nuts trying to find it!

Most times if your craving food like mad its because your body is needing something that you haven't supplied for it. Are you drinking plenty of water? Are you taking your prenatals? Are you eating balanced meals? Are you eating smaller more frequent meals instead of 3 large meals a day? If you aren't doing these things, then you need to adjust your diet and youll find the mid night cravings will go away.
