Were you sick everyday? The same time everyday? Did it make you feel really bad all day, or did you throw up and feel better right afterwards. Share your pregnancy experiences here.

my little ham
i didnt find out i was pregnant until i was 4 months along, and the way i found out was i talked to my neighbor (shes a nurse) this is kinda silly but i was telling her my boobs were very sore, she told me i was pregnant but i said no way, i was told at 15 i would never have children and infact the doc wanted to give me a histerectomy, my mom said no way. well i went to the docs and sure enough i was 4 months along. i had absolutly no sickness i had no sighns of being pregnant except a growing belly.

Both times I was constantly sick for about 4 months. Nothing helped me feel better, even throwing up!! I just had to deal with it and know that it would go away eventually!!

Morning sickness was a misnomer in my case. It went on all day and all night. My only relief was sleeping, otherwise I was either vomitting or dry-heaving for 4 straight months. I lost a lot of weight, and was close to needing to be hospitalized so I could be put on an IV.

I got VERY lucky and just had nausea in the beginning of pregnancy, but no morning sickness. I was extremely tired and moody pretty much the entire pregnancy though.

My little bundle of joy! :)
I was really sick. I went from 185 to 158 in a matter of 6 weeks. It was not fun at all. I think that it has probably ruined me for ever having anymore kids because I never want to go through that again.

I had morning sickness for about 2 month. During that time, my hubby couldnt watch anything that involved with blood at all. I dont know why but I had to get up and use the bathroom to throw up. Got sick from smelling tacos he brought home for me because I wanted to eat but I couldnt. There were few take out foods he brought home for me that he thought I would like and I didnt get to eat. I would have if I wasnt pregnant.

I was sick everyday multiple times a day, from about the end of the 2nd month, until about a month ago (i'm 8 mos now) and actually still get nauseas often. I wasn't sick at all with my son, til the nerves set in, when i was baout to be induced the night before i got really sick-so it was easy to tell thsi one would be a girl. LOL. I really think its different for all pregnancies and everyone. Makes things exciting!!! LOL, i had to switch doctors at about 26 weeks, becasue he just didn't care that i was constantly sick, and still losing weight and stuff. i lost 30 pounds in the first 3 mos of pregnancy!

When I woke up each morning, i still have the feeling of going back to bed and sleep. As if its very tiring for my body to start and do my thing. There were other pregnant women who also happens to vomit during their first few weeks of pregnancy because of the body's adaptation to cycle of pregnancy changes...

Force yourself to eat some breakfast,as soon as possible after waking. Have coffee after eating instead of before. You will notice that you won't have it as bad. Be sure not to have coffee and doughnuts or you'll REALLY be sick!

I was sick until the 5th month. I threw up everything I ate and lost 20lbs! I had to get on some medicine for Chemo patients for nausea, called Zofran. I didn't feel better after throwing up, because I would just do it again a little bit later-even if I didn't eat anything I would throw up stomach acid (that hurt!). I had very harsh pregnancies, I have empathy for myself just remembering all that I went through. The morning sickness was all day, it started as soon as the double line appeared on the pregnancy stick. I didn't have the morning sickness when I was pregnant when I miscarried though, I knew something was different when I wasn't throwing up yet-now I know why. All pregnancies are different. Mine are just horrible and that is why my husband got snipped. I also had severe preclampsia, gestational diabetes, low progesterine, and carpel tunnel from the swelling. When I was swollen my legs and feet were like memory foam, for real! You could press down on my skin and leave an imprint.

I threw up every day during my pregnancy... it was great, not lol. i dont know why they call it morning sickness though, who had it where it was only limited to the morning??? i threw up all day and night, about 16 times a day and i felt just as bad afterward. how about you??? i love my son, and in the end id do it all again in a split second but if im being totallly honest, i hated being pregnant, i didnt glow, i just felt crap all the time, lmao...

I was sick everyday all day for 6 months of my pregnancy. I finally figured out what foods I could eat for breakfast without throwing up... it ended u being ice cream!! That was fun to always have ice cream for breakfast, but when I went to work, I knew after lunch to head to the bathroom. It was the worst when people at work were eating fish, I wanted to throw up on them to show them how it feels!
