Appetite too good

Currently 11weeks. I’ve been reading so many posts about moms not having appetite in their first trimester, vomiting and even losing weight because they can’t eat much. I’m on the total opposite end of the spectrum. I crave carbs like pasta ramen ban mian pizza, and I am very into greasy foods like mala and breads dipped in olive oil. In fact my appetite has greatly increased from pre-pregnancy. This is madness because I don’t feel satiated even after a large meal (but I do feel full). Anyone else having mad appetite like you can keep eating large meals and keep everything in? I haven’t had much morning sickness (nausea, but slight and goes away when I exercise or start eating) and no vomiting so far. Am actually feeling stressed out because 1. weight gain could be atrocious at this rate (I end up doing daily 45min to 1h cardio from this fear), 2. worried abt eventually getting gestational diabetes from this massive carb intake.

Hi Mummy.. Don’t worry, i am in my 11 weeks now too and i don’t have any morning sickness or vomitting yet. I crave for fried food particularly like nuggets, french fries but i do eat in moderation and control myself. I only get nausea when my tummy is empty, so i’ll need to eat and munch on something or else when my stomach gets too empty, i’ll feel uncomfortable and i’ll need to vomit out to feel better before eating normally and i get hungry every 2 hours after my last meal 😂
