20+6.....didn't really suffer that badly in the beginning, just felt nauseous and never actually vomited......subsided by about 13 weeks.....this morning I feel awful.....im stuck in work and all I want to do is sit with ym head in the toilet that's how close to actually vomiting I feel!!

Anyone else had theirs return so late?

17 weeks today and feeling crap too. Had a week full off cold and am knackered so maybe that's why 😓

Mine has been on and off all pregnancy. I'm 37 and was sick at weekend. Take it as a sign it's a good pregnancy. I know its hard but it will get better and less frequent x

I had it all the way through and was on meds from week 5 (ondansetron was the best) but still vomited every day.
It's grim but not that unusual.

Get signed off work.
Rest.
Eat small frequent meals and don't have too much liquid with food.
Try meds.
If heartburn/reflux is an issue get omeprazole from GP.
Make sure it's not a UTI or anaemia (both can cause nausea).
Hope it eases soon!

Thanks everyone! I know its a strange thing to say but I do take any symptom as a good sign, its just hard feeling this ill while sitting in work. I would get signed off work but its coming and going and would feel a bit of a fraud just sitting at home! only 16 weeks to go in work I can do that lol Hope you are all feeling better soon!

Azaeli only ever had heartburn one other time in my life....during my first pregnancy! thought I felt the beginnings of it starting again last night but quickly eased off!
