If you had bad morning sickness, how were your side effects on MJ?

[pinkandredflowers]

I am starting this week but nervous as generally a very sicky person eg suffered reaaaaly bad with sickness when pregnant/travel sick etc .

Interested to know others experiences to see what I'm letting myself in for.

Thanks so much!!

I had bad morning sickness all 9 months, although not HG, and it was the worst with my first pregnancy.

MJ has been ok so far, 3 weeks in. I've had a little nausea this week but find drinking a pint of water helps it more than eating or anything else.

HG with my middle pregnancy, very little nausea on MJ until I got to about 10mg. It's not terrible, although I've chosen to stay on 10 rather than go up for another month to see how I go. I'm also just a 'sicky' and 'headachey' person in general and I've been fine with MJ.

Ahh thank you all so much for sharing. This has really calmed my nerves. Hope you all achieve the results you want xxx

HG both times, nothing on MJ.

9 months in, never gone above 7.5 and I've lost 6 stone, just teetering on the brink of healthy BMI.

Terrible morning sickness. MJ fine. Feels like completely different mechanisms. I feel a bit nauseous and do gross burps if I eat fried food on MJ, but it’s nothing like morning sickness.

I had dreadful morning sickness (or more like all day sickness) with my pregnancy,but I've had minimal nausea while using Wegovy.

Terrible sickness in all 3 pregnancies, each time got worse.
Have had very mild nausea when I’ve increased a dose on MJ, but not much at all, & most weeks absolutely nothing.

Am also a very sicky person - travel sick, all day pregnancy sickness, anxiety, heat (too hot, too cold). I have had a bit of nausea on MJ but only for a couple of says when changing doses. The big difference for me is that previously eating was the only way to stop the nausea (I put on 5 stone while pregnant) but on MJ, that hasn't happened so I agree it is s different mechanism. I have also had one week of random vomiting but I think it may have been a bug. I am on week 18 now.

I had HG during my pregnancies, cured only by giving birth 😬

Mounjaro has brought spells of low level background nausea in the days following injection, but not at the low dosage. When I got up to 12.5mg I found the nausea and upset stomachs too much to bother with so decided to step back down to 10mg.

Now I’m tapering back down my dosage as I’m within a healthy weight range and I’m not feeling any nausea at all.

Haven’t had any actual vomiting on Mounjaro but suffered very badly with it in pregnancy.

I was medicated for HG in all three pregnancies, most recent was 6 years ago which started at 5 weeks and continued until baby was born (was put on ondansetron after a few failed meds as I was so dehydrated I got diagnosed with low fluid around the baby - fortunately DC was fine). I have a strong nausea response to a lot of things, I got mild nausea to begin with on MJ and when I went up a dose (just for the first day) but have been on MJ for 12 months and really haven't had any issues to speak of.

This is all so promising to hear. Thank you everyone!!
