Question about weird hunger problem

Hey ladies- I entered my 13th week this week and noticed a slight change in my nausea. Still there at night but not as bad as usual. But now I have a new problem....basically every 1.5 hours after eating, I feel like I am STARVING...but the cruel joke is that I don't want anything (nothing seems appetizing). My stomach actually rumbles with hunger but I am having aversions to almost everything.

It's kinda frustrating and I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this too?

So, I'm 16 weeks now and I am STILL nauseated and on meds for it.  I sure hope this isn't a sign that I will be sick the whole time.  How are the rest of you ladies doing, feeling better at all?

Me too! I go to bed at night and cant sleep cos my tummy is rumbling and yes I have lots of food aversions. I want something, buy it and then cant stand to eat it. I know exactly what I dont want to eat too but cant decide what I do want, m/s is lessening but I get it more in the evenings. First baby 10weeks.

I just try to eat a small amount of something healthy every couple of hours. Occasionally something sounds really great and Ill eat that but I get full so easy that its not too worth it lol I think the 3rd trimester is when Im starving alllll the time and can eat a fridge worth of food. lol

Thanks for the posts everyone! Yeah It is so frustrating. When all else fails, I'll drink a glass of juice. The nausea is starting to go away, but now if I eat to fast, I throw up instantly..like my cat. haha! It has happened the last 2 days. I wasn't naucious while I was eating,  and I just threw up out of no where afterwards. I'm at 14 weeks and was hoping this stuff would go away. Keeping fingers crossed for all of us!

I with all of you...I am starving about an hour after I eat, nothing sounds good and I am nauseous inbetween.  I am so hungry, but nothing taste good.  UGH!  I am 12w 1d and I can't wait to get over the feeling sick part!!  It helps me to suck on hard candy inbetween to help combat the sick feeling.

I have to eat 6 small meals a day to help wiht this! 7th pregnancy and this has never happened to me before. I read in what to expect when you are expecting that it can be a sign you are having a boy. That there are studies on it and it is true. Who knows:) but yeah normal!

SAME thing w/me. I'm starving every 2 hours or so but NOTHING sounds good. It's like my body is hungry but I can't think of anything to eat!! Another thing is that when I do eat too much, I start feeling nauseous. So, I've found that small quantities of food every couple of hours or so helps. Glad that I'm not the only one, too. :) I'm 10w4d today, fyi.

UGH.  I am still incredibly sick too 13 weeks 6 days.  I can't stand eating, I seem to hate anything I put in my mouth but I am hungry every 2 hours.  The nausea doesn't seem to have anything to do with hunger, its just there all the time, especially in the evenings.

Thanks! I didn't know if there was something wrong with me...like my stomach is telling me I'm starving, but nothing and I mean nothing seems appealing to eat. Lol. Glad to know I'm not the only one and that it isn't crazy!

Lol. That is how I am when I'm preggers!  (This is my fourth time now)

Most of the time I know exaclty what I don't want and can't quite put my finger on what I would be willing to eat. That seems to go on up until about halfway into the third trimester when I start eating just about everything in sight!

Hope it gets easier for you!
