When, if at all, did your morning sickness start?

PistachioTruffle · 12/04/2013 19:13

Hello! I'm just over six weeks pregnant with my first baby, and so far I've had no sickness or nausea at all. I was really expecting to feel sick, and I know it might be just around the corner, so my question is: How many weeks were you when morning sickness started, and how long did it last?

OP posts:

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Mine started at 6 weeks..good luck with your pregnancy!

piratecat · 12/04/2013 19:21

at about 7 weeks, until about 13 weeks. mine was more like all day but worse in the evening sickness. I was never actually sick. Just very nauseous. x

YouYoniLiveTwice · 12/04/2013 19:22

I never had any :)

honey86 · 12/04/2013 19:24

aw congrats pistachio! mine kicked in prob at about 7 weeks and was at its worst at 9 weeks... i still get it in the mornings n evenings. i was worried about lack of symptoms... til i woke one day with horrendous nausea.. n remember ppl with no symptoms can still go on to have healthy babies. varies person to person, pregnancy to pregnancy xx

GirlWithTheYellowHat · 12/04/2013 19:28

Out of my two pregnancies I've only been sick once and I was around 15 weeks. Think something just disagreed with me!

abbyfromoz · 12/04/2013 19:30

About 5/6 weeks.. Lasted for about 30/32 weeks... Violent vomiting- then i felt kind if normal for about a month- then indigestion followed... Not half as bad though.
Fingers crossed you don't feel ill!!

weegiemum · 12/04/2013 19:33

With dd1 it went 4-20 weeks (was green, lost 2 stone!)
With ds, 6-9 weeks
With dd2, 5-16 weeks, but as I also had severe painful kidney problems so I'm not sure where the sickness stopped and the vomiting in pain (until dd2 was almost a year old) started. This is an educated guess!

LadyMedea · 12/04/2013 19:33

Mine came in bang on 6 weeks. Nausea all the time and worse in evening. Been sick once so far

gardenpixie32 · 12/04/2013 19:34

About 7 weeks and lasted until about 18 weeks but I was still being sick a few times a week at 32 weeks.

Knitella · 12/04/2013 19:34

I started to feel sick at approaching 6 weeks, started being sick at 9 weeks, had good days and bad days and after feeling that it got a little worse in week 12 mysteriously disappeared bang on 13 weeks!

I hope you don't feel sick at all!

VisualiseAHorse · 12/04/2013 19:38

About 6 weeks it started. Continued being sick at least 2-3 times a day until 21 weeks, and after that it was mostly just nausea, but was sick a couple more times if I smelt the wrong thing.

barbben · 12/04/2013 19:49

mine started at around 6th week and ended at around 13-14th. bless everyday without it :)

nannyl · 12/04/2013 19:53

i had HG... sickness started at 5+1 and 6 weeks...

second time round having made it to 6 weeks i thought i would be spared the hell of HG for a second time.... boy did i have a shock 48 hours later as my battle to stay out of hospital began (and failed)

ilikeyoursleeves · 12/04/2013 19:56

I've got 3 Ds's and was never sick with any of them. Never even felt nauseous! Good luck for your pregnancy and congratulations :)

Bibs123 · 12/04/2013 20:01

Mine kicked in with a vengence at 6 weeks but I was very sensitive to smells and felt nauseous on and off from a week before missed period.

ShadowStorm · 12/04/2013 20:05

I'm currently 15 weeks pregnant with DC2, and haven't had any morning sickness or nausea in either pregnancy.

aufaniae · 12/04/2013 20:08

I didn't have any. I read somewhere that only about 50% of pregnant women get morning sickness. (Can't remember where now though - no idea how reliable it is!)

Bigbouncingbaby · 12/04/2013 20:13

5.5 weeks now at nearly 12 still feeling rough as . Never any sickness just feeling rough and nausea...horrible far worse this time that 1st . Evenings are the worse :(

Queazy · 12/04/2013 20:16

Mine started at six weeks and gradually went away between13-15 weeks xx

Teaandflapjacks · 12/04/2013 20:19

3 weeks - hasn't stopped since. I have got it down to about 3-4 times a week, and if I avoid meat at all costs this helps (including fish etc). I am now going into 23 week. But it got a bit better at 16 weeks - before that I felt horrendous - mostly every day, or every other day, and had headaches the whole way through until then. I am anaemic (even with iron tablets on prescrip.) which I was told won't help - so something to think about if you have it badly. xx

80QuidYoniJob · 12/04/2013 20:20

Mine started at 6 weeks. All day sickness stopped at about 18 weeks. Still feel sick in the mornings now at 27 weeks. I count myself lucky though as I had HG in my last pregnancy.

Beamur · 12/04/2013 20:20

I had none either. But found some things, like cleaning my teeth made me feel like gagging.
Congrats on your pregnancy!

IslaValargeone · 12/04/2013 20:22

Mine started 3 weeks in, lasted all pregnancy although eased at 20 weeks.
Couldn't move, bloody awful never again.

Tweasels · 12/04/2013 20:23

7 weeks with both of mine, ended at around 16 weeks with the last week having the shits as well (pleasant), but I have many friends who never had any sickness at all.

WillYouDoTheFandango · 12/04/2013 20:25

I started at 5 weeks peaked at 9weeks, calmed down a bit 10-13 and then bad again until it stopped suddenly at 18 weeks. Fingers crossed you don't suffer
