Starving Already?

Has anyone else had this problem... I'm 5 months post op and have received the blessing from all doctors to get pregnant. My husband and I have begun trying and hope/think we may have already been successful (waiting for enough time to pass to test). We started trying Friday the 1st (which was during my fertility window) and for the last few days I have been STARVING! Did any of you find that you were hungrier when pregnant? Does it calm down?

I was already on hormones at that point so my situation is different. I did feel more hungry but I was injecting progesterone daily, too!

It's likely the stress/anxiety as you wait out the 2WW. Try to find healthy options and stay on track. It's perfectly okay to take a look at your nutritional intake now, too, and consider a small increase. I added calories/carbs in around 6-9 months post op and was surprised by how much more I could eat (close to double calories/carbs, actually) without negatively affecting my weight loss.

Track your intake and stay calm during your wait to test.

Best of luck!

Thanks! The wait is killing me... I'm still starving almost all the time and it seems that I can eat more. I'm really hoping that a baby is the culprit because eating this much scares me otherwise.
