Unexpected pregnancy/constant nausea

So this is gonna sound a bit waffley..but here we go. My boyfriend was dying for a baby, I've always wanted to adopt, but wanted to make him happy. I came off the pill, and we tried for over a year, ovulation sticks, timed sex, etc and didn't manage to conceive. We went to the doctors and he arranged for a blood test. I was paranoid there was something wrong with me, I'm only 26 and it gave me really bad anxiety, I never thought I'd care that much but thinking i couldn't have a baby destroyed me. Anyway. The night before the blood test me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex (ovulation time), then he took me to the hospital the next day. We got home afterwards, and he split up with me, then went to work. It was devastating. He then refused to go for his tests, which meant after an ultrasound they wouldn't do any further tests on me. Moving on only 9 months, I'm now seeing a new guy, and somehow managed to get pregnant whilst taking my pill. This guy hates kids but he's accepted it quite well. I'd only been with him 3 months, and it couldn't have been more of a shock. I didn't even take a test till six week despite having strong symptoms as I couldn't bare to pee on any more sticks and didn't even consider it to be an option. I'm now 11.3 weeks pregnant, and I've had constant all day nausea since week 5, stepped up to vomiting this last week, back ache, throbbing headaches, intense tiredness, lower tummy pain if I sneeze/vomit/move, achey hips, sciatica in my bum..... and to be honest I just feel depressed. I'm hoping it's just the symptoms that are getting me down, and not the situation in general. But it's hard to tell. Anyone else been in a similar situation?

Didn't want to read and run. I haven't really been in the same situation as you, relationship wise. But I did feel down and fed-up during those early weeks. I was nauseous all day and actually looked forward to vomiting as it gave me release from the sick feeling. I would stay in the bedroom all day because to me the rest of the flat smelled so bad that it would make me vomit. I was miserable. But I'm 20 weeks now and since about 12 and a half weeks I started to feel better. I didn't have ANY appetite and had lost quite a lot of weight but by 13 weeks my appetite was back and I was eating normally. It does get better (for the majority. Unless you have Hyperemesis Gravidarum) and then you feel great. Don't lose hope hugs. x
