Morning sickness…when will it end?

[Cat457]

I am 23 weeks pregnant and I still have nausea and vomiting. It’s not as bad as it was but I am still throwing up at least twice a day and have nausea. This is my second pregnancy and with my first all sickness was gone by 16 weeks. My midwife said this morning that since it’s gone on until this stage i am likely one of those unlucky ones who has it till the end! When did yours go away? Did anyone have it around 23 weeks but it did stop? I’m losing hope over here!

Mine lasted the entire pregnancy. Everyone said it’ll stop at 12/16/20/24 weeks but it never did. Nausea the entire time but vomiting did decrease slightly.

16 weeks DS
18 weeks DD1
25 weeks DD2

So went on longer with every pregnancy but did end eventually on all of them. You have my sympathy it’s so hard

Ahhhh.... remember this well
DD1 felt sick, only ever was once lasted 18 weeks
DS felt utterly awful, some sickness lasted around 16 weeks
DD2 was sick from the day I conceived until the day I gave birth. Went down to once a day (first thing in the am) after around 24 weeks, but continued until day of birth
DD3 more vomiting than DD1 and DS but lasted around 16 weeks, no where near as bad as DD2.

I have read that if you suffer with travel sickness you are more likely to have morning sickness.

Oddly my DD1 and DD2 have really bad travel sickness especially DD2. It was those I had the most sickness on. They are carbon copies of me and the other two are more like DH who has no travel sickness.... odd!

I had sickness all throughout my first pregnancy, but I only realised in my third trimester that drinking any still drink would make me throw up. So even simple water would make me throw up, but once I moved on to sparkling water and drinks, things did get a lot better.

I’m so sorry-I feel sick just thinking about how awful my first pregnancy was. I think I threw up just about everywhere-shower, front garden, car. It only stopped when he was born. In my two subsequent pregnancies, it went/got MUCH better around 25 weeks. I only stopped feeling sick when I was actually eating, so I ate a lot. Mostly bread-based products, calippo ice lollies and cold melon. I hope yours passes soon xxx

I never had any, thank goodness! My sister suffered until about 16 weeks I think. My other sister also didn’t have any. We both had girls, whereas the one who did have sickness had a boy…….go figure

DC1 around 16 weeks
DC2 threw up all the way through and lost weight. Felt like I was slowly being poisoned.
Also get terrible travel sickness, throw up with alcohol etc.

You poor thing OP. I had it bad on DC3. The opening music of “a place in the sun “ reminds me of lying on the couch in the afternoons feeling like I was dying. I found it never really went away and as I got bigger bad heartburn was added into the mix. The day my waters broke (but no sign of labour) I felt amazing. I ate a massive dinner after I was admitted to hospital for observation which was was the first day of zero nausea

Thanks for all the replies! Interesting that seems to be worse on second/third pregnancies for others as well. My Mum
and MIL told me the sickness wasn’t so bad with your second- but I think they just wanted more grandchildren 😂Interesting about the travel sickness too, I’ve always suffered from this so maybe there a connection. I will keep hoping it gets better..it will all be worth it i know but the days are so hard

Mine got better at 30 weeks or so in one of my pregnancies.
