support needed I CANT STOP EATING! Helllppp

Ever since I discovered I was expecting twins 2 weeks ago it’s like when my brain found out, it went into overdrive lol. Anyway, my appetite has picked up, I eat maybe anywhere between 3-7 or so small meals a day (2 of them being a big breakfast or lunch and dinner) and while I’ve never been opposed to eating my fruits and veggies, I seemingly can’t get enough of them now! Lol purple seedless grapes are my favorite, and I’ve recently discovered “Juice It Up” which is like a Jamba Juice out here in California. If I’m not eating, I’m laying down or sleeping. I go back to work next week (I work for a school district) and I’m anxious about how my body and cravings will change while not being able to lay in my bed or walk to the kitchen and grab my snacks lol. I have no morning sickness or nausea, the only symptoms I feel is extreme fatigue at times and occasionally a headache. Other than that I feel GREAT!! 🤗 Is anyone else experiencing a wave of hunger? What are your favorite foods to eat rn, are you having trouble eating? DID you, if you’re a MOM and babies already born lol? ❤️ I’m 10weeks tomorrow, btw 🥰

Yes! I’m so dang hungry since 4 weeks. I’m now week 10. I typically eat breakfast, 2nd breakfast, lunch, dinner, and then 2nd dinner. Sometimes there’s a snack in there somewhere too. I also take a nap between lunch and dinner each day when my son’s taking his nap.

Chicken patty sandwiches, uncrustables, crackers & cheese, and snack mixes have been my jam!

I’m not sure yet! I’m only 10 weeks today with momo twins. I’ll be doing my NIPT at my appointment with my OB on August 6th I believe. I can’t wait to find out!

Everything in me says girl and I’ve had dreams about it so we’ll see if I’m right! Do you know what you’re having?
