Morning Sickness

Please tell me it ends soon.

I am 16+2 and still have nausea and vomiting. Luckily not everyday but 4-5 times a week. Apart from that and the exhaustion I am enjoying my pregnancy.

When did the ms end for you?

Congratulations - hope the sickness ends soon. Mine eased off between 14 - 18 weeks but never actually stopped completely.
I felt worse when I was hungry - dont know if anyone else felt the same. but I used to have a bowl of cereal before bed and sancks throughout day which helped.
Good Luck

Hello and congratulations :) So sorry to hear you are suffering from this and hope it ends soon!! I had nitemare morning sickness, well more like 24/7 sickness, the feeling was terrible and worse when I got hot.

Like MuckingFuddle I also felt it got worse when hungry and got to the point where I felt like I was eating constantly just to ease the nausea feeling. However for the first month or so I couldn't eat a thing and was signed off work, midwife said later that she thought I would have been admitted, I lost a stone or more.

Lemons helped me, iced water with slices of lemon in :)

I was about 5 or 6 months pregnant when I started to feel human again, I swear I will never forget that feeling!! Hope it ends soon for you though and all the best when your little ones arrive :D

It will go :) my stopped at about 18 weeks. I had hyperemesis from 8 weeks til about 16 which was resulted in 2 hospitalizations - not fun let me tell you - but like with anything you soon forget about it. X

I'm 18 weeks and haven't been sick for 6 days now :o .Just this week I've felt so much better and can now stay up past 8 pm! At 16 weeks I honesty thought it would never end. What a difference a week makes!

Hope you feel better soon xx

With my single pregnancy I felt sick on and off for 12 weeks, twin pregnancy I was actually sick on and off for 27 weeks, not nice at all. But all so so worth it in the end.

Thanks for the replies everyone. Breakthrough - I haven't been sick all week! Fingers crossed it is coming to an end. Have a private gender scan today and I am so excited!!!!!

Like Kate, I also had hyperemeses from 6 weeks to 18 weeks although just managed to keep enough liquid down to prevent dehydration and avoided hospital - it came very close. I was constantly sick.
Unlike Kate, I haven't forgotten how bad it was and I will never go through that again. A poor friend had it through both pregnancies, hospitalised and sick until she gave birth.
