10/11 Processing a triplet pregnancy

10/11
Today, I'm back to my old self. No depression, no anger… just me. Accepting the fact that there are THREE little ones inside of me. (Ok. Maybe I'm still in shock a bit. We'll know that the shock is wearing off when I can stop typing the word 'three' in all caps. :))

On diet and appetite: 
Last week, I felt like I was forcing myself to eat to keep nausea at bay. I read on some multiples forum that this was common early on and not to worry, because appetite catches up. Well, "Hello, appetite!!!"  Today I woke up ravenous. Ravenous, I tell you. As if I had just run a marathon. I'm actually just imagining what that must feel like, having never done so myself. :)  But all day, every two hours, I felt that I simply must eat something. It's crazy. I kid you not, I have never been so hungry in my life (at least not this often in a day, and so soon after eating). I wasn't even remotely close to being abnormally hungry with my first pregnancy. The other problem that comes with this is that sometimes (like right now), I find myself ravenous and on the verge of nausea, and nothing sounds good to me.
