b/c I have one. Last week or so I've been getting that crazy, insatiable second tri hunger. Like HUNGER!!
If you've ever seen It's Always Sunny, it's like that episode when Dennis & Dee think they have a taste for human meat.
This hunger has lead me to eat double breakfasts, then lunch at 10am, and, in a shameful moment today, salami sandwiches on rolls that had spots of mold on them (I scarfed them so fast and with such reckless abandonment, I didn't notice the mold til the last bite). ETA: just to clarify, it wasn't covered in mold, it just appeared that have small spots....but still right? Maybe I'm ensuring my baby won't be allergic to penicillin.
Aside from tired, I feel pretty good. My boss is under the impression that 1st tri is absolute misery for all women (his wife had terrible MS) and I've done nothing to correct that assumption. He's been giving me long deadlines and encouraging me to work from home frequently. I'm rolling with it, lol.

Girl, I'm so with you on the insatiable hunger. I stopped and got a scone AND a croissant for breakfast this morning. Because, double pastries are always a good thing. Eat what you need to and don't feel ashamed.
My deodorant is not working anymore...wet underarms are so gross.
I can relate
I didn't gain any weight all the way up to my 16 week apt, weighed in this morning 7lbs heavier... guess I better check myself! Doctor was not concerned, but man it was a shock for sure!
I am annoyed about one of my showers. My friend REALLY wanted to throw me a shower, but I just wanted a small gt is having a baby celebration cause we are already having couples shower and I don't want to invite people twice. I am really concerned that nobody is going to be able to make it cause it is so last minute.

Pretty much the same here and now am gaining at a fast rate. I did this with C too..might got a lecture at my 20w appt with him because I gained something like 9# between 15-20 weeks.
Tonight I had ice cream for dinner and cips/salsa for dessert. I did eat healthy before then but the day ended badly. Oh well.min went on two decent walks today and didn't feel like any of our leftovers or cooking something new for dinner.
I also don't feel bonded to this baby yet. It has been such a different pregnancy all around compared to C. Maybe I am still in denial...i have no idea what is going on.
My little guy is very stubborn when it comes to kick counts. He loves to kick and wiggle all day long when I'm NOT counting, but then when it's time to do it on a schedule, he wants nothing to do with it. Soooooo I don't even feel bad about eating sweets every evening to get him to wake up. Oh, you don't want to wiggle for me? Here, have a chocolate peanut butter mug cake! And pop tarts... and juice...
I lost weight during first tri, gained almost nothing in the second, and have reeeeeaally made up for it in third tri! Oh well.
I'm with you on the weight gain. Same exact story.

I'm with you on the starving thing... I pack a lunch box full of snacks to get me through the day! I heard someone refer to its similarity to the Hobbit eating schedule which always makes me laugh:
