When they talk about the pregnancy glow, I didn't realise they meant green!

Just needed somewhere to moan, I'm excited, but the feeling ill is definitely making it hard to enjoy pregnancy. Doctor has put me on anti sickness pills, but said if I throw up again tomorrow she wants me on a drip. Fun!

When do I get to the fun bit?

For me, this time, week 15. I thought it would never pass. Then a few days later I couldn't even remember HOW bad I'd been feeling.

You have my hugs and sympathy. IT WILL PASS.

I shall print your post and keep it where I can see it!

Empusa. For me the "fun" stuff happened after he was born. Despite the illness, the emcs, and all the other crap which went on - the morning after the c-section I felt "normal" again. It was a fucking horrible 36 weeks and I was puking during the section still!

I'm now 13 weeks with my second and I feel absolutely fine. Tired obviously and sometimes nauseous but my skin is peaches & cream rather than acne & green!

So hopefully it's true what they say and that each pregnancy is different.

I am 9+3 and starting to feel less sick. It's now episodes through the day rather than all day. I hope you feel better soon too.

I am afraid I was green through-out the pregnancy and didn't feel normal again until right after the c-section. Recovering from the c-section was a breeze compared to the pregnancy and keeping that extra bit of weight has made me look better, healthier and younger! I am only now glowing!

I was awful for first 15 weeks then 'got the glow' up until 25 weeks when started being ill again. Keep being told how well I look which is nice but I certainly don't feel it. I have however seen other ladies at same stage as me at Dr and I really feel for them. I seem to have avoided acne and greasy hair which makes a big difference so I know I am lucky really.
