Cheese rolls with Nutella or apple pie with ketchup: while some pregnant women develop the strangest cravings, others eat no differently than before.

A nutritionist reveals why some pregnant women's eating habits change, what reveals ravenous hunger and why expectant mothers don't have to eat for two.

Pregnancy hormones can change the feeling of hunger
During pregnancy, the body changes. In the beginning, many pregnant women suffer from morning sickness or even have to vomit. Tiredness, a change in appetite and mood swings are also common symptoms of pregnancy. The cause is the new hormonal situation that sets in in the body. It is not uncommon for pregnant women to suddenly develop an aversion to the taste or smell of foods they actually like very much - and they suddenly feel ravenous for new and unusual combinations of foods.
