So, the past few mornings I've become hungry like an hour after meals especially breakfast. Is this normal in the 3rd trimester to get more and more hungry as baby enters a growth spurt?

That seems right - at my u/s tw weeks ago, the radiographer said from that stage on (26 weeks) you could expect baby to put on in the region of a half pound a week. And all of the apps etc say they've everything made and built, just need to pack on some fat now. Those calories have to come from somewhere!

I'm always hungry too! Meals and snack times have started to appear to be one never ending period.

I was always hungry at the end as well. I ate like a horse! I think it's pretty common in order to keep up with the caloric demands of pregnancy. Enjoy it

This is happening to me too! I've been eating so much since I hit 37 weeks. Girls Scouts are not my friend this year--I can't stop buying samoas! I usually don't eat that much for dinner but I've been eating more than usual these past few weeks.

I'm 30 weeks right now. And i think I'm hungrier again. During the first tri, I needed a bedtime snack with protein (PB on toast) or I'd wake up famished in the middle of the night and need a granola bar to get back to sleep. During the second tri, I'd still have a bedtime snack, but wouldn't be super hungry when I woke up in the morning.
And now, I'm back to "must be fed immediately or I'll die" when I wake up. -
@Nskillet: I was hungry nonstop my entire pregnancy. Gained over 50 lbs!

I am 32 weeks now, and lately I am a non-stop eating machine!

@chopsuey119: ah...I am on the same track you were on. The thought of eating more in my third trimester is freaking.me.out!!

@mediagirl: mmhmm.. all good. just eat healthy and exercise when you can! the weight will come off.. eventually. haha. it's a serious pain in the ass losing the weight, but eh. all good!

It was for me- I had no appetite from week 7 up until week 30. After that some of my aversions started to go away (started to want salads again) and I got much hungrier. I was so happy, I really missed enjoying my meals.
