Hi everyone I am 26 weeks today with n 2. I did not have morning sickness with DS and so far I have not had morning sickness but for the last couple of days I have been feeling sluggish and bit sicky and uncomfortable (my stomack) not sure if that is because I am slightly constipated. Do I have morning sickness? What does morning sickness feel like? Does it last all day or just part of the day? xxx

My morning sickness ranged from feeling a bit queasy and sicky to the full throwing up! Sometimes it lasts all day, sometimes just mornings or evenings or comes and goes unfortunately no one suffers the same way. I can only suggest that ginger ale and sea sickness bands helped ease the sicky feeling -give it a try and hopefully you will feel better soon

When I had morning sickness, it was a feeling of nausea that lasted most of the day, and would be (somewhat) alliviated by eating a little bit.

Thanks. All very strange. Did not think that it would start this late in pregnancy. But I suppose you can never tell.

My morning sickness was as you described by 26 weeks after months of actually throwing up. I think you are more likely to be constipated or have a bug than be getting morning sickness at this point. The hormones that cause morning sickness tend to have settled down a bit by this point (please correct me if I'm wrong) so it could be an isolated incident. Ginger/ lemonade can help though.

If it continues I'd go to the Doctors and get checked out, particularlly if you are not eating.

Good luck

I used to feel like i had morning sickness but it was always made better by eating, even a biscuit or banana, there are times when I couldn't even wait 10 more minutes for my tea and would ahve to eat something.

for me, morning sickness feels like hangover tummy.

shootfromthehip is right, the hormones that cause it should have settled down by now, so it might be something else.

Thanks everyone. I have not been feeling sick today so hopefully it was a bug. x
