When does morning sickness hit?

[j200]

Hi all am 5+5 today and not feeling nauseous yet, I read that ms hits at about 6 weeks- is this true for most people? Was it bang on 6 weeks? I guess I just want to know when I might expect it and if I'm ok next week whether I am one of the lucky ones who escapes it (like my mum!) x

I've been pregnant 3 times and I've never had morning sickness. I had loss of appetite when I was pregnant with DD1 and slight nausea at the thought of eating some foods but other than that, nothing!

Oops, sorry - to answer your question, I think it varies from person to person. For some it can be around 6 weeks, others before they even know they're pregnant. I know a couple of people who got it at 12 weeks.

Mine started a little before I found out I was pregnant I think it would of been around 6 weeks , I felt very hungry and very sick at the same time and dizzy, it seemed to be the worst for me at 9weeks I am now 10 and mainly get it first thing in the morning or after I have been to sleep I haven't vomited so far just strong nausea

For me it hit the day after I smugly told DH that I'd just put away a massive Indian takeaway with no ill effect, so I must have dodged it! About 7 weeks I think.

I thought I'd dodged it. Mine started around 9 weeks and lasted until about 14, but wasn't tooooooooooooooooooooo bad (no throwing up - just nausea that could be kept at bay by mainlining carbs). The worst thing was toothbrushing. I couldn't brush anything apart from the front few teeth for weeks. I went and got a professional clean as soon as I was past that stage!

It's most common in first trimester but can happen at any time. Mine lasted from weeks 8-16 but I still sometimes randomly heave for no reason (25 weeks).

7-13 weeks first pregnancy
5-14 weeks second pregnancy

Thanks ladies

Mine hit dead on 6 weeks, halfway through a meal out with people I didn't want to tell yet. Rubbish timing!

Starting being sick once a day at 10 weeks, still going strong now at 17 weeks.

General nausea and all day grogginess, hangover feelings etc lasted until c. 12 weeks. This subsiding coincided with 2 weeks Easter hols so I could do lots of relaxing, destressing and lying around doing nothing and I'm sure this helped!

Never had any in either pregnancy despite one being with twins.

Had it from about 6 weeks

I've never had it in 2 pregnancies

Never had it - yes, I am a lucky sod

Around 8 weeks both times.

I had it from 5 weeks and i'm nearly 13 weeks. Struggling badly with it :-( x

no sickness here either, 37 weeks now!

I was 5+3 and then it steadily got worse until week 9, then it became intermittent instead of constant and I had some days without any, and it totally resolved at 14. I never vomitted though, just really nauseous and went off loads of food.

1st: bang on 6 weeks
2nd: 5 weeks or so
3rd: 9 weeks

I was about 5 weeks both times.

Only had nausea 7-10 weeks, sometimes felt like I could be sick and sometimes just slight. Never been actually sick!

Mine started with nausea at 8 weeks the. Sickness kicked in at 12 weeks and is still going at 15 weeks!

Im 35 weeks and havent had any.. yet.. but i've heard of the odd few who've had it hit them at 36/38 weeks- so you just never know! weeks 6-12 certainly seem to be the most common.. but i know when i was chatting to my friends about it (as i was worried by 8 weeks when i ddint get it) a surprising amount of them never got it either.

Some of them had a theory that if you eat regularly and very well, it might not ever hit. I've a great appetite and never lost it in the early days so was eating really well all day.. so maybe that's why i never got it. i dont know. But i'm glad i never got it- despite it worrying me in the early weeks!
