I know things could be worse but I'm now 20 weeks and still puking every morning, still have the vile metallic taste and too much saliva in my mouth.I've started getting toothache and I'm convinced it's from all the vomiting and not being able to clean my teeth properly as it makes the nausea worse. I have the dentist today luckily so will see what she says. Still can't face cooking or eating anything vaguely healthy. Have mentioned it to the GP and midwife and they just kind of offer sympathy. Still sympathy is better than nothing I guess!

I know exactly how your feeling hun, im pregnant with my first baby and had ms right from the start, it continued right up till 18 weeks, altho its never stopped totally it did get a little better between weeks 18 and 24 then it hit back hard, u prob wont wanna hear this but mines carried on and im now 36+6 weeks preg.
I can remember going to docs and seeing midwife and explaining how bad it was, but they just dont seem to get it!!!!

I still cant face certain foods now and just eat whateva i fancy at the time and try to keep drinking plenty, i must say its not as bad as it was in early preg but still have the odd days where i am sick!!

Hope urs gets better hun xxxx

I can totally understand. I was sick through all of my pregnancies and with my second I was even taken in at 37 weeks as I could no even keep water down. Don't know why it's called morning sickness because mine lasted all day.
I know you may not feel like it but try and eat little and often. If you don't fancy doing it yourself maybe some one can pack you a few things for the day that you can nibble on like slices of cold chiken, fruit or sliced raw carrots, biscuits (especially ginger ones). Even if you fancy something that is not that healthy at least you will be getting calories and energy.
Hope it stops soon for you.

Sorry but I had it all day for my pregnancy until ds was born but found sucking on small squares of chocolate the only thing I could eat. Hope yours goes away - sending you loads of sympathy.
