yes, if you are lucky! Many women never experience morning sickness.

I had far less sickness in my second pregnancy compared to my first.

sazlocks · 19/03/2009 08:32

I had one. Wasn't sick once. Although felt very queasy at all sorts of smells for the first few months.

Trinityrhino · 19/03/2009 08:33

I had zero morning sickness/nausea with my first and hellish nausea with my second and third

they are all girls

I had no morning sickness with my daughter and my mum had four sick-free pregnancies (two girls and two boys).

readyfornumber2and3 · 19/03/2009 08:36

I didnt even feel sick once with my first pregnancy and this time I am pregnant with twins and only had mild nausea

Count yourself lucky and enjoy lol

worriedamy · 19/03/2009 08:58

No sickness for me either! Soooooo tired tho...

GYoIsReallyHavingABaby · 19/03/2009 09:18

Yes- I wasnt sick once until I got a bug at 20wks (annoyingly meant my scan was delayed!)

Only got bit of nausea when i hadnt eaten enough.

Think everyone and every pregnancy is differnet.

I wasn't sick at all with DS1, with DS2 I had regular nausea but no actual sickness.
I did get a fair few migraines in the first trimester though (with both).

Not being sick was my excuse for piling on over 4 stone in both pgs

KingRolo · 19/03/2009 09:26

I sometimes felt very slightly queasy but I was never sick.

preggersplayspop · 19/03/2009 09:30

I felt queasy last time but no actual sickness. Just pregnant again, and seems similar, a bit queasy but no sickness yet.

May67 · 19/03/2009 09:40

No sickness at all with first pregnancy, some nausea early on this time but again no sickness. Just be grateful I suppose, I hate being sick!

OrmIrian · 19/03/2009 09:41

Yes. I had three

A teeny bit of nausea with the last 2 but nothing bad. Never actually sick.

roomforthree · 19/03/2009 09:42

No sickness in my 3 pregnancies.

flamingtoaster · 19/03/2009 09:49

I wasn't sick in either of my pregnancies. With DS I did feel queasy at 4.00 in the afternoon for a few days, but eating at 3.00 solved that problem.

BikeRunSki · 19/03/2009 09:52

Don't count your chickens - 8 weeks fine 9 weeks hospitatlised with hyperemisis!

SpinyNorman · 19/03/2009 10:06

Yes it's possible, i was never sick when i was pregnant, slight nausea now and again but that was it i have quite a few friends who never got morning sickness either.

seeker · 19/03/2009 10:09

I was sick once with both of mine. Both times into a bin at Victoria station before I looked pregnant, and both times at about 5. 00 in the afternoon, so everyone thought I had lunched "not wisely but too well"!

Apart from that, no sickness or nausea at all. Don't get me started on heartburn though!

juuule · 19/03/2009 10:12

No sickness in any of my pregnancies (9 children)

Mummyfor3 · 19/03/2009 10:13

Yes, I was never sick with any of my pregnancies (7 in total ) - good outcome with 3, early MMC with the other 4. Never had nausea either; at worst a sl "empty" feeling in my stomach which always went away with chocolate biscuit .

MrsFlittersnoop · 19/03/2009 10:24

No nausea at all, but ravenous hunger-pangs in early pregnancy and car-sickness in late pregnancy.

Terrible heartburn though. I used to swig gallons of Gaviscon at work every day and could could belch for England!

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

kayzr · 19/03/2009 10:25

Yes. I wasn't sick with either of my boys. But I got awful heartburn.

Also very very bad car sickness. Never had it before pregnancy and not since either.

SpinyNorman · 19/03/2009 10:32

Oh god the heartburn

seeker · 19/03/2009 10:37

I was still finding half packet of Remagel in my pockets for years after!

Carrie06 · 19/03/2009 10:37

I never had any vomiting - felt a bit nauseous in the meat section of the supermarket and when brushing my teeth for a while but other than that, nothing. No heartburn or indigestion either. Had the most horrendous rib pain for a few months to make-up for it though. Cx
