I'm 23 weeks pregnant and cant stop eating! the thing is i feel sick all the time and i am sick every morning and the past few days i have been sick at night too! does anyone have n e ideas of stuff i can eat that will make me feel full up but not sick?
also does anyone else get a metallic like taste in their mouth before they are sick?

  • Fruits, salads, and soups are some items I can eat and not get the delayed sick feeling. As far as the taste of metallic I don't get but I always take a Tums as soon as I get the sick feeling. I'm 17 weeks.
  • I'm totally the opposite this time, but with my last two I couldn't stop eating! With my son I tried to watch how much I ate at a time, so it wasn't always a lot at once, but I was snacking/eating all through the day.
  • I get the metallic taste. There's nothing you can do for it except chew gum. I guess its just the hormones. Its very gross tho :0&
  • I cant stop eating either! I figured it was on since in preggo and it must mean I'm lacking nutrients but i went for my 24 week check yesterday and my dr said i gained 10 pounds! Omg i had no idea. If ur going to eat alot like me make it fruits and veggies and no fruit juice thats what did it for me i thought v8 fruit fusion and orange juice was a good thing apparently its all too much sugar and they said if i cut that out i should lose a couple lbs just from that..just a heads up because it was a little painful hearing stuff like that espicially when I've always taken care to have a skinny figure before :)
  • Doesn't it suck how healthy food doesn't fill you up as much as the junk food!? I am trying to cut back on pigging out with wrong foods, but egg sandwich or pb and j fill me up more, I guess any snack with bread. Whole grain ofcourse
  • At 25 weeks I've read that gaining 10-15 lbs is normal??
  • Omg i get them days to i cant stop but i feel full
  • @first_time_mommy your right lol i forgot to mention its not 10lbs overall i meant i gained 10 just from the last appt 4 weeks ago :(
  • I eat healthy food like fruits and cereal but i just dont stop! Then im sick! Its the worst thing sitting eating food knowing that any time its all gonna come back up? I need to be sick first and then eat or find something to stop me being sick!:-(
  • Uh no! I'm sorry if it helps I'm 168 lbs only 24.5 weeks and barely 5'6! My best work out is Michael Jackson Wii dancing game.
  • I walk a mile everyday and eat healthy. I think that getting the preggy munchies is worse than pot munchies! Instead of candy and chips, I try to snack on fruits and veggies. One good health food tip is when you're out shopping, try to buy foods that has 6 ingredients, give or take, and that the first one isn't sugar, high fructose corn syrup, sucrose, etc. I took a health class taught by a natural female body builder. No steroids in her! That's where I've learned most of my healthy eating habits.
