Morning MNeters, I'm a few weeks gone with DC2 and feel like I've got flu, at first I thought I did have the swine flu but then realised that was ridiculous! This time round I'm aching all over particularly in the eve in my lower back and just feel nauseous. Enough rambling, what were your MS symptons? Ta muchly.

I feel constantly nauseous but have not actually been sick. Normal?

I was like you, tigress, up to about 14 or 15 weeks, when it gradually subsided. Was never sick, and it was worse when I was hungry or exposed to certain chemically sweet smells. Couldn't stop eating crisps, and went off chocolate!!!

Back to normal chocolate consumption now. Phew.

I was tired, but never achey (apart from a few crampy-pains in the abdomen). Not prone to headaches in the absence of alcohol.

Ohwow - one of the symptoms of flu (normal or swine) is fever - have you taken your temp?

Interesting I have been feeling esp cold too, think thats why I wasn't sure. Aches have passed now and went to a lovely wedding yesterday which took my mind off feeling rotten. Just feel dodge in the evening and through the night, not 'morning' sickness at all! Finding I'm having very very vivid dreams which I didn't have until later with DD1 . Thanks again for the feedback, feel more relieved!

With DD I was constantly sick and had bad heartburn from around week 4 to week 10 when I went on anti-emetics, stopped me being sick but I still had bad nausea.

This time (wk13), I've had no heartburn, spontaneous sickness morning, but feel fine. Evenings feel awful, v. naseous - like I've been poisoned - but rarely sick. Also, between 6-8pm I feel exhausted, then I wake completely up again!

I think everyone's different and this could be normal for you for the pregnancy you now have.

I felt sick constantly. I was sick frequently. Went off nearly all food except v bland things. My sense of smell intensified.
