Always hungry!!!

Hi everyone!! My name is Tabitha and I am pregnant with my 4th. I have to say that so far this pregnancy is so diffrent from the all the others. My main complaint, besides being tired all the time is that im always hungry!! I feel like I eat a meal and within an hour im starving again!! I have put on over 10 lbs already!! My last baby I only gained 17 lbs total. With my first 2 pregnancys I gained the normal 25-35 lbs. I get to see the doctor for my 1st appointment on Jan 30th, and I know im going to have some explaining to do, lol.All my cravings are for salty foods so maybe its all water weight but I dont think so...........:(  I still have all the weight from my last baby witch is only 4 months old (almost 5 months) I am so going to be huge before this is over, lol!!
Has anyone eles had this problem?? Any cravings?? Please tell me im not alone:)

When the nausea ended around 11 weeks, the non-stop eating began!!  (Now, THIS is more like what I remember from my other preganancies!)

Unfortunately, I tend to gain alot of weight- 50 with my first, 35-40 with my second and third.  

I am really hoping to keep the weight gain to around 30 pounds this time, but the way I am starting to eat, it's going to be difficult!

Well... sorry guys but I still have aversions to food.... I think I've gained some weight now, but during the first 10 weeks, I actually lost weight.  I literally have to force myself to eat something.  The only thing that I can stomach is fruit and milk - but it does nothing for me in regards to filling me up....  I am currently 12w3d....

I am about 13 weeks and just started to get the whole hunger thing.  I woke up at 4am starving!  I am still having bouts of bad nausea every once in a while, but the hunger is such a different feeling than I have ever had.  I have been doing light work outs like my dr. said to stay in shape a bit and feel better about all the food I am eating!

I have the same problem of being hungry all the time.  I try to eat healthy though when I am hungry.  Lots of veggies and fruits.  I haven't really had any cravings yet though.

for me it's weird... either i want nothing to do with food because i'm so nauseas, or i'm starving. no happy medium.
