7 weeks - constant sick, burping like a spell has been cast on me - what the hell have I done?

Oh man - pregnancy is sucking so far - been feeling constantly sick for weeks now and the last few days - the burping, oh the burping has started - like burps right from the core. Beginning to feel like someone has cast a spell on me and I'll start burping up slugs. Really not looking for anything more than a place to vent - my chap is being supportive on the whole but let's face it - he's doesn't understand.

Thanks

It's awful, I was recalling that time this morning - it was back in January for me, and I just felt dreadful. Once the nausea eased off around 12-13 weeks, pregnancy was much more bearable, if not fun. And the exhaustion! I felt like lying down in the middle of the office and just sleeping for hours.

Honestly, even sleep deprivation in the early baby weeks (mine is 8 weeks now) is preferable to early pregnancy sickness.

Hang in there, it will get better!

I am so with you on this. I am 11 weeks into my first pregnancy and finding a lot of it hard. The sickness I expected, but hoped I wouldn't get it morning, afternoon and evening. However the burping and farting is something that I was not prepared for! Although I will say its all just started to calm down now thankfully. I am also finding the change in my sense of smell hard to cope with too. I appear to hate the smell of every food I used to love!

Thanks ladies - it is so hard. I was expecting the sickness but expecting it and having to live with it are two different things - can't see past the end of a day at the minute and just trying to survive haha. I was not prepared for the burping - I hope this passes - it's going to be a rough ride if not for the next 7 months otherwise. I am sure it will all be worth it but at the minute I'm wondering what the hell ive done. I know what you mean about smells - literally everything seems to offend my sense of smell at the minute haha
