How many???

Eat the same amount of food as they did before being pregnant?  I do or even less food.

I'm not eating too differently. I ate a LOT in the beginning to not get sick, so I feel like I made myself sick of food.

Sometimes after work, I'm not very hungry for dinner. It drives DH a little crazy because I haven't really made a decent dinner but a few times in the last two or three months.

I eat the same I ate before I was pregnant. I never got morning sickness so I was lucky and I have no cravings.

I eat about the same amount.  Sometimes I will have a day or even a few days in a row where I am starving, so I eat more.  This entire pregnancy I have just listened to me body and I eat when I am hungry.

In the first tri, I ate less. Second tri, way more. Now I'm back to eating less. In recent days, WAY less since I've been having nausea again...

I am.  But I was eating too much before - I was nursing DD and got used to eating an extra 500 calories a day.  Then she weaned and I kept eating too much and gained like 15 lbs in one month.  Now I'm back to eating extra calories, but trying not to overdo it.  I don't purposely try to stuff myself - I just eat when I'm hungry.

I feel like I eat the same. I never got into the 5 or 6 small meals a day thing . .I just continued to eat like I normally would.

For most of my pregnancy I have eaten significantly less... about 1/2 what I used to. Just now in 3rd Tri I am starting to get back my prepregnancy appetite!

Most days I eat the same amount of food that I did pre-baby. But I do have some days where I'll eat more...rare, but it happens around a growth spurt.

First tri, I was eating just a tiny bit more than usual because I wanted to make sure I was eating enough (no m/s). Second tri, I was hungry ALL the time--I seriously could have eaten a full meal every two hours. Now? Eh...I actually have to make myself eat at mealtimes and that's about all I can handle since I have no appetite whatsoever. FTR, I gained 5lbs in first tri, 14lbs in second tri, and 2lbs so far in third. Guess that's just how I roll.

1st tri I had horrible MS and only wanted fruits, veggies and broth soups-lost 17lbs bc everything turned my stomach.  2nd tri I fealt like I was eating constantly, literally every 2 hours like clock work I was starving.  And now in 3rd tri baby girl seems to be sitting up higher and I'm not able to eat as much.  However Sunday morning she was very low and I plowed through an entire belgian waffle, 2 eggs, bacon and hashbrowns mmmmmmmm.
