Reply To: Hungry or nauseous, there’s no in between!

[Ryann Kipping]

Hey! Yes, it is true nausea can be a good sign, but it is super frustrating I know! Appetite changes are super common during the whole 9-months of pregnancy, but if you continually find yourself hungry it’s likely you aren’t eating enough protein as it is the most satiating nutrient. The yogurt breakfast is a great option, is there anyway you can sneak in more protein with this? A hard-boiled egg? or chia/hemp seeds? Is it greek yogurt? Including a source of fat with every meal and snack is important too, so adding those chia/hemp is great or a nut butter. Three components you need; protein, fats, and fiber! If you are missing any of these, it is likely you will find yourself hungry quickly!
