Is anyone feeling the same..or has anyone had this while pg?? It seems as though my naseau & hunger occur at the same time. If I eat, it usually makes me feel better, but after I eat, no matter what it is, I feel like someone put an air pump in my mouth and blew me full of air! It seems to encompass my entire chest cavity...very uncomfortable..until I eventually burp it all out! Then, most of the time I get heartburn afterwards, again, no matter what I ate! I get it normally every now & then, but usually from a type of food that normally causes it! Some of the basic stuff I'm eating shouldn't cause heartburn, as far as I'm concerned! If I'm not pg, then I don't know what the heck is going on! I keep telling myself that it seems as though I HAVE to be due to all the signs I'm having, granted, some of them occur before Af, which makes it so hard to know the difference, but these other symptoms are just off the wall!!! Then that little voice in the back of my head keeps reminding me not to get my hopes up and most likely I will get AF...just because I want to be pg so bad!! What do you think? Anyone have the same thing?

Hi, just saw your post. I have heard/read that heartburn is a symptom of pg, especially if it's more frequent than normal. I have had some girlfriends tell me that their heartburn was bad when they got pg. We all try not to get our hopes up but it's easier said than done....good luck.

I have been having the same thing. I will be nauseous and then starving and after I eat I am sick again. It seems to get worse each day. I also have been(I know this is gross) constipated and farting more. I'm cramping like I'm going to start though.

Hey Mia -

Everything that's going on in your head is going on in mine too! So you're definitely not alone! I know my body so well...and I think I am pregnant (and I just had a neg. test yesterday!) but I keep having to remind myself to listen to the little voice saying "you're not pg, you're just nutes..." I really don't want to get excited if I"m not, but I can't help it...my body is doing too many weird things!

As far as nausea and eating...I get ridiculously nauseous when I'm starving...which is happening often bcause I get really hungary - but then when I go to eat I don't feel like eating. This has been happening for about a week now, and I've gotten used to just making myself eat. Because if i am pg i sure don't want to be starving the poor thing! heehee

Hang in there!

I know what your feeling! I'm getting something between heartburn and unending hunger pains and I never used to get either! I'm also getting lower back pain and twinging in my lower stomach and sides, is this happening to you? Good luck, it sounds like your pregnancy(?) was actually planned, unlike mine lol. Once again, good luck!

I know exactly what you are saying...I have the nausea/hunger thing too and I am just feeling so tired. My breasts are a little sore but nothing dramatic. I want to be pregnant so badly and I am just worried that I am getting my hopes up to much. I know that something is not right with me, I am sooooooooooo exhausted all the time. I am 3 days late now and I will test on Sunday morning if AF still hasn't shown up...

good luck to you!
