QUESTION:
Can I be having morning sickness and pregnancy cramps 4 to 5 days after getting pregnant?
I had sex with my bf 5 to 6 days ago and I was ovulating he didn’t ejaculate inside of me but he did in the opening of my vagina. I think he might of push some inside of me. Now my bReast feel kind of sore and I’ve been cramping, also been having something like morning sickness. Is too soon or I’m pregnant?

• ANSWER:
  It’s unlikely that you’re experiencing symptoms this early on, it can take a while for the sperm to reach the egg in the first place, especially if you don’t actually release an egg when you think you’re going to. It’s never exactly on the 14th day, everyone’s cycle is different. Breast tenderness and cramping could be a sign of your period, it might be that you’re going to have one early. Or of course there is always that chance, however slim, that you could be pregnant. The only way you’re going to know for sure is by doing a test but if I were you I’d wait it out for at least another week. Most women find out they’re pregnant at about 5-6 weeks, wait till you’re due on and if after a couple of days it doesn’t happen, then try a pregnancy test.

QUESTION:
Cramps/Morning Sickness?
Did any of you have cramps early in your pregnancy? Also about when did morning sickness start for you?(if you had it at all)

• ANSWER:
  Cramping is pretty normal in early pregnancy–

  Many women get concerned by cramping that they experience in early pregnancy. Cramping in early pregnancy is not only common but very normal. Some women start cramping shortly after they get a positive pregnancy test as their uterus starts preparing to carry a baby for nine months. The uterus is a big organ and as it grows in early pregnancy cramping is expected. This cramping normally stops by the end of the first trimester or at about 12 weeks. If the cramping and also have bleeding then you need to contact your Dr, also if the cramping is so severe that you cannot continue with activities of daily living. But some “period like” cramping is very normal as the uterus begins to stretch.

  As for the morning sickness (or all day sickness) it really depends on the woman and the pregnancy. Some women develop morning sickness very early on in the pregnancy and it lasts all the way through, but for most women who experience morning sickness it does start to lessen by the end of the first trimester, some women never have any morning sickness, and some only have a few days of queasiness.

  Remember if you are pregnant and are having symptoms that worry you that it is fine to call your Dr and ask questions!

  Good Luck and Happy Pregnancy!!

QUESTION:
9 weeks pregnant – morning sickness, cramps, diarrhea and horrbile fatigue!?
I just had my ultrasound three days ago, found out everything was fine, but now I am experiencing aches (specifically in my back and shoulders) also in the weirdest place! My calve muscles. Is that normal?

Also, I canNOT keep anything down. Every morning when I get out of bed, I feel dizzy with a bad headache. Then I feel sick in my stomach – leading me to throw up. (Since I have nothing in my stomach, it is usually bile – yuck.)

And I know this sounds gross but I’ve also been having mild to mildly intense stomach cramps accompanied by diarrhea. Is there anything I can take for this?

I’ve been also off work for a few days, but since I have to go back tomorrow, I am scared because I do not feel energized. I am drained, which is weird because I’ve been literally lying around the house for the past three days – doing NOTHING! When will all of this go away?? Is this normal?

• ANSWER:
  No one is really helping you by saying “Welcome to pregnancy” so let me try and help you out.

  Yes, all this is normal. Luckily most of these stop once you get to your 2nd trimester. I have been pregnant 4 times and they have all been different. My first I was great, second kinda sick, third VERY sick {miscarried}, and this one I feel great with the exception of being sooo sleepy. This is what you need to do. If you can get to the store buy yourself a bag of peppermints, a box of crackers and some 2 liters of ginger ale. Keep a pack of crackers next to your bed. As soon as your eyes open tomorrow morning, do NOT sit up, stretch – NOTHING. Reach your arm over and get a cracker. Eat about 3 of them. Then sit up very slowly. Go to the kitchen and sip on a cup of room temperature ginger ale. After that, eat a peppermint. Eat 20 a day if you have to. Peppermints have a way of settling your stomach. Your doctor can tell you a safe dose of Immodiom {sp?} for diarrhea if its out of control. Stay away from greasy and fast foods. Yogurt is great too {I am eating some now lol}. I hope you get to feeling better. If you can’t get to the store have someone go for you!! Good luck it’ll be over soon!!

  {P.S. Prenatals can make you nauseous so try eating 2 Flintstones vitamins in place… thats what I do}

QUESTION:
Stomach cramps, nausea, morning sickness, mood swings, weird appetite?
yea so this sounds like some symptoms of pregnancy but there’s one problem: I’M A GUY yea so id really like some help with this cuz the stomach cramps, and morning sickness/nausea is unbearable

• ANSWER:
  Do you have a wife/girlfriend/mom/sister that is pregnant?

  EDIT: If you have a close person that is pregnant you could be experiencing “sympathetic pregnancy” It is a real thing and sucks completely. BUT, the nice thing about it is that what works for a women, will work for a man experiencing it. Eat saltines and bland food, drink ginger ale, and if it gets terrible; just go to the DR and ask for a prescription for Zofran!

QUESTION:
Morning sickness, period cramps, had sex, period started the next afternoon…now it’s stopped…?
I had been having morning sickness for about 4 days this week. I had also been having sharp stomach pains, whish caused the overwhelming nasuea and the throwing up. I have also been having bad period cramps. Last night, I had intercourse with my boyfriend and then this morning, my stomach just didn’t feel right. I started having really bad period cramps. Around 4:57 PM, my period started. I just laughed it off, as everyone kept telling me I was pregnant (because I was craving pickles, lol.). So I went about my normal business, used a tampon, and finished helping my boyfriend paint the living room. Five hours after I put the tampon in, I go to change it…there’s like nothing on it. My periods are usually between medium-heavy…I want to know what the possibilties of me being pregnant are.

Can you have period-like cramps while pregnant? What IS SPOTTING!? No one seems to describe it. How much blood comes out? What is it like? I NEED ANSWERS PLEASE!!! Please help…I’m so scared and confused.

• ANSWER:
  If you had unprotected sex, yea its possible you could be. The only way to really know for sure is to take a pregnancy test. Yes, you can have period like cramps when your pregnant. I’m pregnant and I have them. Spotting is like a little blood, but not a lot like when you have your period.

  My advice: take a pregnancy test. but know that some can read negative when you are pregnant, so I’d go to the doctor, if you don’t have your period soon.

QUESTION:
lessening morning sickness, back cramps, weird discharge, 6 weeks pregnant, Ladies please help me!?
Ok ill be 7 weeks pregnant tomorrow. For the past 2 days ive been having this weird discharge only a couple times a day it kinda looks like boogery but sometimes its more brownish tan sorry TMI its gross! And also for the past week and a half ive had horrible nausea that lasts all day long and i usually have vomiting at night. Well my nausea has lessened, I actually feel good when I wake up ( i still have sore boobs/fatigue/frequent urination) I still vomit at night and have occasional mild nausea during the day. Isnt morning sickness supposed to last like a month? Is it normal for it to become milder the second week? Its almost unnoticable during the day. Im just paranoid about miscarriage!! I know that symptoms that disappear can lead to that. Also today I had a couple weird cramp things in my left lower back that only lasted a second…ive heard that can be a sign of ectopic or miscarriage…any suggestions as to if everything is normal? Thanks ladies
My dr said that the brown discharge isnt something to worry about, only red. Im concerned about my morning sickness lessening im happy not to constantly feel ill but is that normal?

• ANSWER:
  thick discharge is normal during pregnancy, and of course so is nausea, even though they call it morning sickness most times it’s throughout the day and some people have it all through their pregnancy, I had alot of cramps during my first trimester, it felt like a bad period, i also had some bleeding, which is actually common, I wouldn’t worry, my son is almost 5 mths now, each pregnancy is different, my first I sort of breezed through it, my second was alot of cramps, spotting, aches all over, nausea got me during second trimester, best luck

QUESTION:
What does it mean when I’m getting morning sickness, really bad stomach cramps, heat flashes, and I get shakey?
I had sex about two and a half weeks ago and it was with an extacy one so I’m scared it broke and the guy didn’t tell me because he knew it would freak me out cause it was my first time. I knows these can be signs of pregnancy, but I feel like I may be paranoid cause it seems early to get these symptoms.

• ANSWER:
  you are right, there is a good chance that you are just paranoid.
  anyhow take a pregnancy test.

  and for the rest of you out there…

QUESTION:
cramps or morning sickness?
Let me first say I really do not think I am pregnant, I have been on Yaz for 2 years prior to Nuva ring which I just started on September 24th. On October 20th I opted to skip my period (because I was on my honeymoon) I just took out my second ring today two days early because my uterus hurts so god damn much. It started last night November 7th feeling sick constantly waking up and having bad cramps. This morning and throughout the day they have gotten worse it feels as if my uterus is a about to burst and when I walk I have to hunch over a little. I feel nauseous and about to throw up at times but not enough to actually run to the bathroom and I haven’t actually thrown up or even gagged, just the feeling randomly that I might. My breasts are not tender at all, and I don’t feel motion sick or dizzy. I tried to walk it off knowing exercise can help cramps but it just made me want a bed more. I have taken Midol and I don’t think it has helped that much if at all.

My Questions:

1. do you think I’m pregnant or just having really bad cramps if you think I’m pregnant would a pee on test show up by the time you are feeling morning sickness (mind you I have skipped a period with the Nuvaring)
2. My husband remembers when I started Yaz and says I had really bad cramps when I first started it as well, could this be my body adapting to the medicine?
3. Could this be constipation? I feel sharp pains have it is getting worse overall, I don’t remember going to the bathroom in a few days but I continue to eat (though admittedly increasing less each passing meal)
3. What can I do to feel better right now I can’t do anything, it hurts to much I have taken warm showers and put the water on my lower stomach and it makes it feel really good but hot pads outside the shower do not have nearly the same effect.
4. Because I just got married we are both in-between health insurances now so any “at home” advice would be very helpful, if not how much does it cost to go to a walk in clinic for something like this?
Thank you so much for your help, will vote on best!

• ANSWER:
  Constipation is an unlikey cause, but its possible. Mentrual cramps are usually not accompanied by sharp pains. You could have an ectopic pregnancy, in which case you may not have the normal signs of pregnancy, and you should find an ER asap. Is there a phone nurse in your area you can call? Look in the phone book under social services or something like that and there should be a free phone advice nurse service.

QUESTION:
morning sickness or period cramps?
whats worst? morning sickness for 5 hours and period cramps for 5 hours

• ANSWER:
  You can do something for cramps, it’s called Midol. You can’t really do much about morning sickness except nibble crackers or something and tough it out. I have morning sickness all day long (it actually gets worse in the evening around seven or eight) and I can’t do a darn thing about it.

QUESTION:
Am 16 week pregnant no bleeding just morning sickness and small cramps now and then is that normal to have?
I had 2 m/c last year so this my 3rd baby the other before had no heartbeat so I had a natural m/c. The first m/c was painful the second went so fast didn’t know i was pregnant since i was on b/c. With this pregnancy it happen after my second m/c in Dec and i got pregnant 2 weeks after , I had no cycle what so ever. I went in to the doctor office they did a ultrasound on me I measure me at 7 weeks and the baby had a strong heart beat 155 bpm. So far this pregnancy been going fine , I had no bleeding, just a lot of morning sickness but, not all the time, and the small cramps just started i believe is my stomach making more room for the baby. So far the baby been moving I know Tuesday for the sex (girl i hoping).Is that normal to have morning sickness in the second trimester?.And the doc keep saying it good am throwing up lol.
any way to try to make it stop a bit am eating crackers and peggie drops
i was 13 weeks on my first m/c and 5 week on my second m/c they had no heartbeat and i had a natural m/c

• ANSWER:
  The doc is right, morning sickness is actually a good sign that your pregnancy is established and your pregnancy hormones are high as they should be. You don’t say at how many weeks your previous m/c were, but having one at 16 weeks is thankfully very rare. As your ligaments stretch at this time it is normal to feel some twinging and discomfort in your abdomen. However if you do have cramping tummy pain it is always a good idea to get your urine checked as you may have an infection which can affect the pregnancy.
  Many women find their sickness goes by 13 weeks however for me it was always about 18 weeks before it went. For one of my pregnancies I was terribly sick all the way through.
  Good luck.

QUESTION:
i’m 8 weeks pregnant with no morning sickness & im have abdominal cramps?
i have gone to the doctor & its been confirmed that i am pregnant. is it normal that i dont have morning sickness?
i have been blood tested & im perfectly healthy. is it normal that ive been having cramps & feel a pulling every now & then? i dont get a fever or bleed at all. so should i be worried?
PS: this is my 1st pregnancy

• ANSWER:
  yes it is completely normal to have no morning sickness and you have to thank God for that.
  dear not all pregnancies r the same … also nausea may get started by a week or two so don’t stress your self and relax every thing is going to be ok if you keep on protecting your self and not to do so much effort in your first trimesters.
  and all the cramps you feel is due to the expanding of the size of your uterus to carry out your baby.
  good luck and congratulations for the baby

Morning Sickness?
I’m in the middle of week 6 of my pregnancy and am already tired of morning sickness. I try to drink water, eat something in the morning, even milk [which I used to love]. On top of morning sickness I still have mild cramps throughout the day and sometimes at night. Tylenol has become my best friend. I just wanted to know if there is anything to ease the nauseating feeling without vomiting??

I just found out that i am Six weeks pregnant, but i have no morning sickness, I want to eat everything i see, I am emotional and also some light cramping in my lower abdomen, is this normal. It feels like there is bubble popping in my stomach

• ANSWER:
  yes cramping is your muscles getting ready for what its about to hold! Unless your cramping is alongside bleeding then dont worry To be honest not to scare you but i had cramps and pains all the way through and it was my muscles adjusting and my insides expanding and then in the end my baby pushing down on everything inside.

QUESTION:
Morning sickness gone and slight cramps?
somewhere between 8 and 12 weeks (havent had first scan yet :/) is it going to be okay? :/ xxxxxx

• ANSWER:
  It’s impossible for us to know because both of those things are normal. Try not to stress too much, what will be, will be whether you want it or not. That was my mantra for the first trimester.
  Although I will say not a lot of women know this but it is pretty normal to get pms symptoms or period style cramps around the times you would normally be due for your period, even when you’re pregnant. It doesn’t mean anythings wrong, it just means your body still works in certain cycles. So for me I had cramping at around 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20 weeks. It just got milder and milder every month and by 20 weeks I hardly noticed. Remember that mild to medium cramping at any stage is pretty normal as your body is stretching and changing.

  Morning sickness is completely unpredictable. Mine would come and go every few days because as I later found out, pregancy hormones are not technically released in a steady stream, they have big ‘bursts’ here and there that boost your levels. So often you will feel sick after this while your body adjusts to the new levels and then just as you start to feel better, another surge will happen.

  The only time worth worrying is if the cramps are so bad you can hardly talk or stand up straight (so they say) or if you start bleeding. If not, relax because there is plenty of cramping and aches and pains coming your way over the next 30 weeks or so.

  Good Luck.

QUESTION:
Cramps and no more morning sickness..?
The cramps Ive been having this week are worse than they were last week and I also havent had morning sickness for 3 days now and I was getting it all day … I only threw up yesterday after taking a vitamin on a empty stomach…could I possibly be having a miscarraige or are these signs I am going to have one?
Oh yea and Im 7 weeks starting today

• ANSWER:
  These are not signs of a m/c. Some days you will feel better than others and the cramping is your uterus stretching out. As long as you aren’t bleeding heavily you’ll be fine.

QUESTION:
Can you get morning sickness with your period?
I am not pregnant, but i have my period, and i know morning sickness can last all day. But for the past few days i have woken up and felt so nauseous. So bad that i haven’t gone to school, then if I got to sleep, it goes away. But later on in the evening, it comes back but i think its from my period cramps. Can I get morning sickness as a symptom of my period? or is it just nausea from everything my body is going through?

• ANSWER:

QUESTION:
Morning sickness?
I already asked this in pregnancy, but people ask questions so fast in that category that my question is already way down the line, and I only have a couple of answers. So I’m reposting it here.

I woke up this morning at 3 a.m. with nausea that was just like extra acid that wouldn’t go away, I felt like I wanted to puke but could hold it. I feel like I could burp puke. It’s different from my last preg because then I had hardly any Morning sickness, and when I did, it’d be a wave of nausea then I’d be ok. Yesterday my BBT went down in the morning, it had been going down, but then later that day and today it’s been up. I thought AF was coming early yesterday because of cramps, but she didn’t. The cramps stopped and now I feel like puking, but the HPT was neg. My AF isn’t due for a couple of days but it’s kind of late for implantaion, it’s l11 days after ovulation. I could have that date wrong, though I’m pretty sure it’s right.
My last prg was a miscarrage so thats a good sign right?
I mean, If i am pregnant and this ismorning sickness, then it’s a good sign that it’s different from last time. what do you think? morning sickness or just bad food

• ANSWER:
  holy dinah! Just relax! Wait until you’re a couple of days late and then take a urine test. Your extra acid could’ve been just that…..

QUESTION:
Slight cramping, morning sickness, tiredness, haven’t missed a period. Possibly pregnant?
Okay, I have always had irregular periods all my life.
I know it is possible to have bleeding every month like a period through out the beginning of pregnancy & in some cases through out the whole pregnancy.
But here is whats going on with me;
About a week & a half ago I started experiencing extreme morning sickness.
Except at night which is normal dunning pregnancy’s in my family. Well the morning sickness just got worse & worse to the point it happens sometimes through out the day.
I got off my period about 4 days ago & yesterday started having slight cramping. Not like my period cramps which are so bad I can’t stand them but just light mild cramping.
I have gained a little weight which is odd because I haven’t increased my eating habit ( I don’t eat very much )
I stay so tired all the time, I take naps during the day and everything which isn’t like me.
I have always been able to run on little sleep just fine.

The last time I had sex was just about a month ago.
I also had sex a few times the month before that (unprotected most of the time)
Since then I have started having the symptoms. So if I am pregnant it could have happened either of those months.
I am also experiencing a few other symptoms of pregnancy.
But I think the ones listed are enough for someone to give me an opinion here.

Does it sound like I have a good chance of being pregnant?

oh & bleeding dunning the first few months of pregnancy is aalso common in my family

is it normal to not have morning sickness and my bbs only hurt in the morning…is that normal?
I’m seven weeks pregnant and a first time mom so I don’t know what is normal and not normal.my breast only hurt in the morning and seem to be ok through out the day also I have no morning sickness and just mild cramps is this all normal?

• ANSWER:
  Your breast will hurt on and off through out your pregnancy.

  You may or may not get morning sickness. I had it with my 1st, none with my 2nd and had it again with my 3rd.

  But keep in mind it could still rear it’s ugly head if it wants to.

  Mild cramping will also happen through out pregnancy, it is your uterus growing.

QUESTION:
morning sickness and cramping??
was just wondering. my period isnt due till the 29th of this month saturday. my last period was dec 1st. i ovulated some where in between the 11-15. i had sex the 12,13,15,17 i have a regular 29 day cycle

what i was wondering is could i be having some pregnancy symptoms now?? for the past 4 nights i have felt sick to my stmach around 6 till the time i go to bed and its only at night sometimes i just have a stomache that is annoying others i get sick .. last night i actually got sick. i have been cramping off and on like im going to start af any moment when i get my cramps. but nothing. soemtimes my cramps make me feel sick. anyone else have this early and were pregnant? my nipples are sore to the touch. and my boobs are kind of achy.

and also if im getting sick due to “morning sickness” does that mean the i have enough pregnancy hormone in me to take a pregnany test eraly and get a pos???

• ANSWER:
  Aughhhhh the waiting is the worst bit.

  You wont necessarily feel any different.

  I underwent IVF last month and had heaps of symptoms and I was not pregnant just really hoping to be pregnant, so I know how you feel because you analyse everthing that is going on and you are totally tuned into your body right now.

  I underwent an embryo transfer ten days ago so I am hopeful but will not be putting myself under so much pressure this time as I know every little tummy ache, nausea etc might not be anything.

  Take it easy and hang in there I really do hope your test is postive and I wish I could make time go faster for you.

  P.s you should be OK to test about 10-14 days after you ovulated.

  Baby dust comming your way.

QUESTION:
cramps, back ache and no morning sickness??
Hi Im nearly 7 weeks pregnant and keep having period like pains, really bad lower back pain and have not had any morning sickness. Im worried cause ive read that no morning sickness could be a sign of miscarrage. Along with pains im starting to panic. (Ive not had any bleeding) is this normal please help !! Thankyou

• ANSWER:
  Call your ob/gyn, just to be safe. You are still in the “scary” place where a miscarriage is much more likely to occur. I never had an ounce of morning sickness with my first one, and morning sickness all day everyday until the third trimester with my second….you just don’t know how your body is going to react to the pregnancy and it is all a learning experience. Your body is going through a lot of changes, and in that you are going to experience things that may seem “abnormal”. Stressing out about minor things is BAD–call your ob/gyn—-alleviate the questions and stress!! They will call you in and have you checked. Good Luck!!

  Flu has fever and it doesn’t matter if you vomit you still feel sick

QUESTION:
is it ok to be pregnant and not have morning sickness?
well I’m 4 weeks and 3 days but no sign of morning sickness. i have very light cramps but thats it..do you think something is wrong? or i should be prepare because its coming soon?

• ANSWER:
  I’ve read that morning sickness is a sign of high hormones in your body and it is a good sign… LOL… BUT, with my daughter, I only had morning sickness in my first trimester, and only on a few occassions – once I woke up thirsty and basically thought the orange juice was the best thing I ever had and chugged a glass. ewwww…. so sick. Then, I learned if I coughed, sneezed, or blew my nose within the first hour I’d be sick, otherwise great! So, no I don’t think anything’s wrong – be happy for each day of your pregnancy… LOL.. and even delight in the sickness (if it comes) for you are growing a miracle today!

QUESTION:
Morning cramps in early pregnancy?
I am 6 weeks 3 days pregnant and the past few mornings when I wake up I have period like cramps, but they don’t last long and they’re pretty mild. Is this normal? I don’t necessarily have morning sickness because I don’t feel like I’m going to get sick — just cramps. Is everything okay? My doctors appointment isn’t until the end of next week.

• ANSWER:
  ‘usually’ cramping is completely normal – your uterus is just expanding for your growing baby. maybe just tell your doctor about what is going on, but you shouldn’t have nothing to worry about

  if the cramps become unbearable and there is some spotting and bleeding, make a trip up to the hospital to check if everything is okay

  but for now dont stress

QUESTION:
no more morning sickness but now cramping at 7 weeks?
ive had pretty bad morning noon and night sickness ever since I found out I was pregnant but all of a sudden yesterday it just stopped, but I started having bad cramps throughout the day, especially on my right side. is this just another unpredictable happening of pregnancy? I know every pregnancy is different but the cramping is okay right? I’m 7, almost 8 weeks

• ANSWER:
  yes the cramping is just another pregnancy pain we have to live with. it’s just the stretching of ligaments that supports your uterus.

QUESTION:
I have been having morning sickness and now I’ve started cramping and bleeding. Can I be pregnant?
I went off my pills for about a week or two, had unprotected sex. Then I had horrible morning sickness one morning, it went away, 5 days later it was back. Now that I started my new pack of pills, a week into it, I started cramping and bleeding lightly. I called options and they want to give me a test. But could I really be pregnant?

• ANSWER:
  U COULD BE MISCARRYING OR UR BODY COULD BE CONFUSED. U STARTED AND STOPPED USING THE PILLS. EVERYONE HAS A DIFFERENT REACTION. I GOT PREGNANT ON THE PILL . SO ITS POSSIBLE

QUESTION:
When did morning sickness start for you?
I’m about a month pregnant and still don’t feel anything except a few cramps and back pain here and there. When does morning sickness usually start? (Not that I’m looking forward to it)

• ANSWER:
  It really started about 7 weeks, and lasted til about 16-17 weeks. I didn’t have typical morning sickness…I had mostly evening nausea, and it usually only happened when I was overtired. I’d lay down on my left side and sip some water/eat some saltines and the nausea would subside. I didn’t vomit at all. (I gagged a few times because I was SUPER sensitive to smells and my roommate at the time had this AWFUL colonge…It actually got to the point where we made him put it on outside so the smell wouldn’t linger!!) LOL…Anyway, best of luck to you, and congratulations!!

QUESTION:
I am 8 weeks pregnant how long does the lower abdominal cramping last for? And morning sickness! Its soo bad!!?
I would like to hear from other mums/ expecting mums as to how long both these things lasted for? Any good cures for the morning sickness which is actually all day sickness for me! I am taking ginger tablets and a pregnancy multivit which has B6 in it also but I am still terribly sick which is affecting me at work!

• ANSWER:
  My morning sickness lasted from week 8 until about week 16.Some women don’t get sick at all and others can last the duration.

  As far as the cramping goes you’ll get it for the entire pregnancy off and on.Now if you have the cramping associated with any bleeding then you need to call your doctor immediately.Your uterus will be growing up to 500 times it’s original size and those cramps are a sign of it.It’s uncomfortable but not unbearable.God bless you.

QUESTION:
some questions about morning sickness and cramping?
im about 4 weeks pregnant, ive had morning sickness and cramping throughout the whole 4 weeks, ive looked up the cramping and they say its normal. but is it normal to be having morning sickness this early? and if so, are there any ways i could get rid of it, because im not actually vomiting, im dry heaving and gagging and just the littlest things trigger the gagging, and if its not real vomiting then how come im nauseated for most of the day and can’t get rid of it till about 3pm, because i get up normally at around 8am.

anyone got any tips for a newly pregnant woman seeking help?

please only give me real answers here, i am really seeking this help on a need to know basis, no websites can help me so hopefully people with real experience can.

thanks in advance.
also, im not taking prenatal vitamins yet, im taking some vitamins with alot of folic acid in them and they have all the vitamins that would be in prenatal vitamins, i need to get to the docs i know ugh, its very stressful when your always sick though as well, lol.

• ANSWER:
  Remember, every woman is different. Morning sickness really should be call all day sickness, because you are not only sick in the morning. Try keeping saltines and a glass of water next to your bed, before you stand up in the morning, nibble on a couple of crackers and sip on the water. Also, what time are you taking your pre-natal vitamins? If you are taking them in the morning try switching and taking them at night, just before bed, that really helped me in both of my pregnancies.

QUESTION:
morning sickness 24/7, cramping with diahearra. Normal?
This will be my third pregnancy. Sadly, the first two ended in miscarriage. I will be 7 weeks this friday. I’m not vomitting alot (average once a day), but the nausea is 24/7. My doctor has tried putting me on Reglan and Promethazine, but they are not working. The doctors seem to be getting annoyed with me, but i work full-time and i’m standing all day and moving around and it just makes the sickness worse. And i’m missing too much work. Any suggests on what else there is to take for morning sickness? And the past two nights i have been getting cramps that wake me up at night and are accompanied with diahearra. Is this Normal?

QUESTION:
Is the amount of morning sickness I experiance genetic at all?
I’m not pregnant yet just curious. My Grandma had horrible morning sickness with all four kids. My Mom only had slight cramping with her four pregnancy’s. I’m just wondering if my morning sickness will have anything to do with what my relatives had. Has anyone else had relatives to relate theirs to. What have your experiences been?

• ANSWER:
  No, every pregnancy is different. My first preg. I had a little morning sickness in the morning. It wasn’t to bad at all. My second I couldn’t eat. My doc had to give me a pill to relieve the nausa. It was all day. Anyone that I have talked to with more then one child says the same. “Pregnacies are like snowflakes…there are no two the same.”

QUESTION:
Can you get evening sickness rather than morning sickness?
I am 8 weeks pregnant, and this is will be my first child. I started noticing I get very nausious in the evening time, that is also the time I take my prenatal vitamins. Is it normal to get evening sickness rather than morning sickness, or could I be getting sick from my prenatal vitamins? Also I have noticed some days I can eat everything in sight and I am still hungry as for other days I will eat a meal and feel stuffed after a few bites. Is this normal?

• ANSWER:
  Who ever came up with the phrase morning sickness was an idiot…lol. I call it all day sickness because it can strike at any time. For some it is worse in the morning because of an empty stomach though. And prenatal vitamins used to bring on the sickness for me too, they are pretty nasty. Everything you described is normal.

QUESTION:
Has anyone had their morning sickness start in the evening?
I am 5-6 weeks along (waiting on an ultrasound to figure out how far I am really) and today I was completely fine till about 5pm when I started getting nausous. It got really bad after dinner and I ened up getting sick, My last pregnancy I just woke up with morning sickness (and had it all day ugh!). After I ate some crackers I feel better but have never heard of morning sickness starting in the evening. Isn’t that something that happens over night and not during the day?

• ANSWER:
  Yes, my “morning sickness” was really evening sickness when I was pregnant with my first.

QUESTION:
When you had morning/evening sickness how severe was it?
I am kind of thinking that it is a possibility that I might be pregnant, my period isn’t due yet so I haven’t tested yet. But every morning and night I have been feeling kind of nauseous, but not to the point of vomiting. Rate your sickness on a scale from 1-10 , 1 being just a little upset stomach and 10 being the worst sick you have ever been.

• ANSWER:
  20!!!!! when i was pregnant i had the worst morning sickness! I threw up about 6x every single day. and I was still in high school so i had to deal with it. But i was the one who put myself in that situation so…. hope urs isnt as bad as mine was/. good luck

QUESTION:
morning and evening sickness?
Is it possible to have morning sickness and then feel fine from around noon till evening , after dinner start feeling sick again till time to go to bed? I wake up sick around lunch I start feeling a lot better , then after dinner I get sick all over again. I wont always throw up but really nauseated? Has this happen to ayn one else before and is it really from my pregnancy or could it be something else?

• ANSWER:
  …isn`t it wonderful??
  When I went thru that, I asked my Dr. about it, I always heard about ‘morning sickness’, but I was sick all the time except a very short time period in the middle of the day. Seems most girls don`t have it like this, & usually lasts about 3 months? Mine was about 5….
  I still managed to gain 40 pounds!!

QUESTION:
Is it common to have ‘evening sickness’ as oppose to morning sickness?
I am only a few weeks pregnant, and instead of finding myself rushing to the bathroom every morning, I’ve been finding myself feeling sicky and stuff of an evening especially when settling down to sleep. Has anyone else experienced this?

• ANSWER:
  We have 3 children and with the first my wife was sick a few times everyday for the full 9 months. With the second ( i know it sounds daft) she was sick every tuesday for full 9 months and funnily enough my daughter was born on a tuesday lol. With the 3rd she was sick on a teatime for the first 3 months. So i think that tells you that everyones different . Plus the doctor told her that sickness in pregnancy is a good indication of an healthy pregnancy. Good luck !!

QUESTION:
Second trimester morning/evening sickness?
I’m 11 weeks (almost 12) pregnant, and so I’m pretty much out of the first trimester. During the first trimester, I wasn’t sick at all. Now, right after dinner I vomit. I’ve taken to eating primarily bland foods so it doesn’t upset my stomach but that doesn’t do much. Also, now all of a sudden I get morning sickness. I tried keeping some oyster crackers beside my bed and eating those before I even get out of bed but those seem to come back up, too. Is this normal to be sick in the 2nd trimester? Also, how should I deal with the sickness?
BTW, this starting happening a week ago. Aside from the nausea and vomiting, I feel fine. No fevers, chills, et cetera.

• ANSWER:
  Unfortunately it is very normal. I was sick all nine months. My doctor never put me on drugs because I was always gaining the minimum at each appointment. In my last few weeks she then questioned her own decision to keep me off the anti-nausea drug. Thus I know a lot about how to deal with morning sickness (or all day sickness in my case)

  1. Try to figure out if you have food triggers. Even some bland food made me throw up. I threw up everything at one point or another, but some food I almost always threw up.

  2. Drink ginger ale- read the label- most ginger ales don’t have actual ginger in them- you want the real stuff

  3. Try drinking your nutrients- Smoothies and fruit juice snow-cones were a lifesaver for me.

  4. Try to each very small meal- basically snack little amounts at a time

  Hopefully one or more of these things will work for you. I hope your sickness goes away soon. Take care

QUESTION:
Morning Sickness?
I am 8 weeks pregnant and the morning sickness is getting worse. I am vomitting the whole day and i feel tired coz of that. I work eight hours a day and keep on running to the toilet coz of the vomitting. Anyone knows any remedies for the morning, afternoon, evening and nite sickness. Please help.

• ANSWER:
  Hi. I had the same thing and I got totally dehydrated. My Dr. put me on zofran, and it did wonders. I lost 15 pounds during that time. My morning sickness stopped at exactly 12 weeks. What a relief. I really only had to take about 1/4 of the zofran a day, and it really helped. I also agree with the potato chip theory. They helped too! If you are taking prenatal vitamins, you may want to lay off for a day or two. My Dr. took me off all of my vitamins for about 4 days. Good luck, and hang in there. I hope this helps!

QUESTION:
How do I survive morning(evening/all day) sickness?
I’m 9 weeks and some and I’m out of it. I dont throw up but I’m always nauseous. Help! I’m considering sending in a resignation so I can stay home and feel ill

• ANSWER:
  Whenever you eat, eat small meals. Don’t eat a big breakfast, lunch and dinner, it is better to eat small snacks througouht the day. When you are feeling nauseous, grab some crackers and sip on a coke or sprite. Its really hard, I worked at a dog grooming shop around dog poop whenever I was at my sickest, but you just have to breathe slowly and not over do yourself.

QUESTION:
Why do I get “morning sickness” late evening and into the night?
I thought it was supposed to be “morning” sickness.. not “all daaaaaay and night!” sickness. is this normal?? it sucks soo much, I hardly sleep anymore.

• ANSWER:
  Its called ‘morning sickness’ because its usually at the start of your pregnancy. A bit like a ‘wedding breakfast’ isn’t actually breakfast but the first meal of the wedding.
  Try eating little and often to combat it, make sure you are keeping your fluids up above all else though.

QUESTION:
How do you beat morning, afternoon and evening sickness i seem to have it all?

Just to clarify i know i pregnant thats how i know i have morning sickness

• ANSWER:
  Hi. I had the same problem when i was pregnant. Instead of eating 3 big meals a day, eat smaller meals more often. When you feel sick to your stomach, sip some ginger ale, and eat a few saltine crackers. My doctor told me to do this, and it really helped. It will get better as your pregnancy progresses. Best of luck to you

QUESTION:
Is it possible to still have morning sickness even after you’ve had a miscarriage?
my friend had a miscarriage, and the doctors told her that it’s been dead for 3 weeks, but she just had morning sickness a week ago. is this possible? or are the doctors wrong?

• ANSWER:
  Yes, completely possible and very probable. I lost a pregnancy last year and had terrible morning sickness for a whole month afterwards…it takes your body time to realize that the baby’s gone.

QUESTION:
If you went through the morning/day/evening sickness or is going through one now, how did/do you cope with it?
And, if you were nauseous or is going through one and ate little during the day what kind of foods and beverages did you stick with? Also, if a pregnant woman has an urge to throw up it’s normal for us to throw up right? Please answer my questions and explain what you did too!!

• ANSWER:
  Well… I had it in the morning and whenever I ate… It was soooo tough trying to eat… Maybe one or two bites of my food and I couldn’t eat anymore… What I found helped me a lot was biting on ice chips or drinking really cold water or eating string cheese… as funny as that may sound… It helped… A lot of people try the salted crackers but those didn’t help me out any… As far as meals go… I ate a lot of salads, sandwiches, lunch-ables and fruit… Plenty of fruit… Fresh foods just made it way easier to eat… I know it’s not too healthy, but soda made my tummy settle faster… Try a 7up of a squirt… And if you have to throw up then throw up… It makes you feel better after you do… It was a while for me when I would try and throw up and couldn’t… It was worse… But now that I do… It makes me feel better… I hope you get better soon…

QUESTION:
How early can you have morning sickness?
I am on day 20 of my cycle and have been trying to get pregnant. For the last two days I have felt exhausted and nauseous. I also have a sore back. Do you think it’s too early to experience morning sickness, even before I have missed a period!

Sorry but also wanted to say that I seem to have a slight liquidy discharge too. What’s that all about?!

• ANSWER:
  I started feeling slightly nauseus a week before my period was due and I was sooo tired and had a sore lower back and sore boobs. I took a test the day my period was due and got a faint positive! so yes, you can be having morning sickness. It’s kind of let up now(I’m about 6 weeks) but I’m sort of expecting it too come back, with my first pregnancy it started the week before my period was due and NEVER went away until I was 6 months, it sucked!

QUESTION:
Can you have evening sickness instead of morning sickness?

• ANSWER:
  YES.

  Morning sickness is not confined to the morning: nausea can occur at any time of the day, though it most commonly occurs soon after waking because blood sugar levels are typically the most depressed after these hours without eating.[citation needed]

  Morning sickness usually starts in the first month of the pregnancy, peaking in the 5th to 7th weeks, and continuing until the 14th to 16th week. For 50% of all sufferers, it ends by the 16th week of pregnancy. For the other half, it may take up to another month to get relief but some women will have morning sickness off and on for their entire pregnancy.

QUESTION:
Morning/afternoon/evening sickness?
Hello!

As you may have seen earlier, I had 3 +HPT last night! yeay! (ahhhh! scary!)

So I’ve been reflecting.. and I have noticed something.. I have been gagging uncontrollably for the past 4-5 days. Do you think this could be the precursor to some pretty bad morning sickness? I thought it’d be too soon to be affected like this. Thanks!

*by the way.. this is #1, so you will probably see me posting a lot*

• ANSWER:
  Morning sickness is a misnomer, it’s all the time sickness.

  It could get worse, or it could stay where it is, just eat little meals often – soda crackers, ginger (real ginger like tea, ginger ale, candied ginger), and pretzels all help.

QUESTION:
morning sickness?
I am not sure if I am pregnant or just have a bug but I have been feeling sick and throwing up all day long today. I felt a little nausea on monday morning but didn’t puke (just had to spit a lot) and today I have had diarreah is that commonly associated with morning sickness? Also, even though I can’t keep anything down, I am craving pizza is this normal for a stomach bug, or could I be pregnant?

• ANSWER:
  The most important questions are: Have you missed a period? When was your last one? Did you have sex mid-cycle? A period will most likely be missed beofre you feel any symptoms as severe as you are describing.
  Sounds like a tummy bug to me – and you may be craving pizza because you are lacking salts from all that vomitting.
  Go see your doc.

QUESTION:
When did your morning sickness (or evening or midday lol) kick in?

Can “morning sickness” occur in the evening instead of morning?!?

QUESTION:
In early pregnancy is it normal for morning sickness to stop and start so much?
I’ve just found out I’m pregnant again following a recent early miscarriage and I’m terrified of it happening again so forgive me if I’m being a bit neurotic!

I’ve been extra ill this time around, and my GP says this can be a good sign of a healthy pregnancy, but then my morning (and afternoon, and evening) sickness stopped for three days until today.

Is this quite common or should I be worried?

• ANSWER:
  yes enjoy the days you don’t have it but its so normal i remember it would be so happy thinking it was over and then it would be back

QUESTION:
Morning sickness?
Or should i say morning, afternoon and evening and all night sickness!!!!!
Im 6 weeks pregnany, not far i know, and i also know that it passes soon, but I cant eat properly, im managing about 1 1/2 slices of toast and the tiniest bit of tea! It cant be good for the baby at all! And i really need food! Im snapping at everyone because i feel sick and im hungry! Anybody got any suggestions on how to help me please!!! x
And noticed when your not feeling well…food seems to pop up everywhere!
watching tv adn things…you notice them alot more!!
Im not being sick all the time, maily just feelin it.

• ANSWER:
  Whatever you eat or drink the baby will take what it needs from your body before you get a look in for your welfare, likewise, if you don’t eat or drink, baby will draw off your body, which is why often women’s hair, nails, skin etc suffer through pregnancy.

  You haven’t said whether you are being sick or just feel sick. If you just feel sick maybe it’s just a case of finding something to tempt you?

  Try eating a dry cracker or biscuit before you get up in the morning which will hopefully stave off the sickness a bit so that you can get a little breakfast down (even if it’s unhealthy, even chocolate or something)

  I found that I felt sick all day every day but as long as I ate really regularly (and I mean literally every 30 mins to an hour) I was a bit better.

  Hopefully this’ll pass at the 3 month stage ( a way to go yet I know) and the time will pass faster than you think.

  If you are being sick all the time, though, you should see your doctor or midwife as you can get too dehydrated and may need to go into hospital.

  Good luck, it’ll be worth it in the end, I promise.

QUESTION:
Is it possible for “morning” sickness to kick in around the evening time?
I have no idea how far along i am. Im always puking my guts around 5-6pm is this considered morning sickness..

• ANSWER:
  Yep. “Morning” is a misnomer. You can and probably will have have it at any time of the day/night, and it’s totally normal. Only time it’s not normal is if you can’t keep anything down and/or you lose 10% or more of your body weight and/or become dehydrated.

  To find out how far along you are, count the weeks from the first day of your last period. You’re technically considered 4-5 weeks pregnant the day you miss your next period.

QUESTION:
I have the worst morning/afternoon/evening sickness?
I constantly feel nauseous practically 24/7. I have 2 midterms this week for school and I don’t know what I am going to do. All i feel like doing is sleeping and not do anything. If you had experience .. How do I make this go away? Or at least how do I cope with it?

• ANSWER:
  You havent told how many weeks pregnant are you. When I was in my first trimester, I was so sick all the time that I didnt seem to digest even water. My doc gave me some SOS meds which were to be taken only when I felt sick. They seemed to help to a certain degree but mostly I had to live with it. I even lost like 8 lbs and my gyn/ob was not happy. Oh yes and sleep is a big indulgence that doesnt seem to leave you at this time.

  My suggestion would be take very small meals and dont keep your tummy empty for long. Keep fruits/crackers in your purse and take a bite or two when you feel you are hungry. Dont eat heavy meals. Take small and frequent ones. Listen to your body. Dont stress yourself.

QUESTION:

QUESTION:
Evening sickness, not morning and 7 seven weeks pregnant?
Is this normal?

• ANSWER:
  Absolutely, I am 10 weeks right now, and have been sick daily. Morning sickness is just the name of the nausea, because alot of women experience it when waking up, but it can come and go anytime or stay. I will feel fine one minute and the next a wave of nausea will come over me. It is just the hormones in your body that is causing this, it should pass by second trimester!! Hopefully:)

QUESTION:
Does anyone have “Evening Sickness” instead of “Morning Sickness”?
I am 7 weeks, and my sickness is much worse in the evenings. I’ve been getting sick every day at 5:00 or 5:30 like clockwork — I feel like my job is getting the best part of me and then my evenings at home are ruined! I feel like I’m neglecting my husband because all I want to do is lay down and sleep — not cook dinner and talk to him about his day, etc. Anyone else have this?

• ANSWER:

QUESTION:
What foods could you eat with bad morning sickness?
My morning sickness is brutal: all morning, noon, evening, and night. Right now all I can (barely!) keep down is a plain shredded wheat biscuit with warm milk, chicken broth, and peeled cut-up apple. And I’m not eating much of those things. What worked for you?

• ANSWER:
  At first, saltines worked until the day I realized I couldn’t swallow another bite of those dry crackers. Rice was fairly inoffensive. It got to the point with one of my pregnancies where the doctor insisted I drink Ensure every day because I couldn’t eat and was losing too much weight. Surprisingly, it was not hard to get down. I was sure the texture would get me. It may be worth trying, especially if you are not getting a lot of nutrition right now.

QUESTION:
is it normal not to have morning sickness, even if you did with your last 2 pregnancys?
Im 7 weeks and on my 3rd preganacy. my other 2 I was hoverd over the toilet. This time I barely get nauseated, although I do feel tired all the time. My last pregnancy was 11 years ago and I am 33 now. Could it just be different because of my age or could something be wrong?

• ANSWER:
  My pregnancies have been exactly like yours! Every pregnancy up until this one I couldn’t tolerate the “morning” sickness. It was constant for about 4 months, and after that it subsided a little but never completely went away. With this pregnancy, I am now 15 almost 16 weeks and there was one day when I felt sick. Every other day has been great! It is completely normal. Enjoy it!!!~~~~

QUESTION:
how long does the morning sickness last????? And what have u done, to make it lighter?
I am now about 6 weeks pregnant, and I have morning sickness, afternoon sickness and evening sickness. I am nausea almost 24/7……. I do eat peppermints, and they help out some…. I am just wondering if anybody else has gone through this during there pregnancy. It has last for over a week now, and I just don’t know, if there is another remedy that I should be looking at.

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!

• ANSWER:
  My doctor recommended that I don’t ever go more than 3 hours without eating something. An empty stomach will make it worse! You could also try to drink very tart lemonade or suck on sour candies. As far as medicine goes, my ob had me take a half pill of unisom (or one meltaway tab) and a vitamin B supplement. Taken together, they did help my nausea. If it is still really bad, your doctor can prescribe you zofran or another medication to take the nausea away.

  Hopefully it wont last too long for you Mine lasted from 6 weeks until 16 weeks, but I know it stops sooner for a lot of people!

QUESTION:
Can morning sickness start even before one can get a positive on a pregnancy test stick?

• ANSWER:
  They should be very near one another, because it’s the hormones that pregnancy tests detect that cause morning sickness and your other early pregnancy symptoms.

  That being said, tests register negative for any number of reasons – there’s not enough hormones in your system to register quite yet, expired or defective tests, not using (or having) quite enough urine for accuracy, or testing when you’re fully hydrated and most of what you’re passing is actually water.

  If it’s really morning sickness and not some other issue, you should be able to register positive in the next day or two at the most. Try testing first thing in the morning when you’re dehydrated, and use a reliable name brand test with early results (one that says 5 days before you miss your period) because those are more sensitive. There’s nothing wrong with cheap testers, but they’re not as sensitive and more likely to give you a few false negatives first.

  Good luck!

QUESTION:
is it a chance my boyfriend could be having morning sickness and evening sickness?
hey i think im preggers.saturday my boyfriend had very bad stomach aches.and he said that it only happens when i came around.and he said people has been telling him that he has been eating alot lately,and going to sleep early.and saturday i started of having feeling my period was coming on.but it didnt and my nipples are sore and nom ore problems,i was suppose to have a period april 25 or somewhere in there but i didnt i had a feeling that it was but no sign.me and my boyfriend have been sayn lets wait n see if i have a period and thats what we are going to do,but i had like a brownish red stuff come out of me like 2 r 3 weeks ago and i didnt think that was a period,bt could anyone tell me about my boyfriend or something.are can u answer my whole question?

• ANSWER:
  wait another week and take a pregnancy test, its the only way to know for sure. instead of wasting a lot of money, you can get the dollar ones that works just as well and you could pick up a couple if you wanted to test more than once, as you probably know it’s best to use first morning urine for a more accurate result. and yes, if you are pregnant, then it is common for your partner to have some of the symptoms too. its called sympathy symptoms. my fiance has been having them off and all so far during this pregnancy. he gets his random aches, and cramps and cravings. its really cute. he even felt a bit nauseous a few times. that’s the reason why we say that “we’re pregnant’, instead of saying that i’m pregnant

QUESTION:
Morning sickness preggie pops or b-natal lollipops which is best to ease morning sickness?
Several of my friends and my sister say b-natal lollipops did wonders for their morning sickness even those with sevre morning sickness. I was doing research and found preggie pops do preggy pops work as well? I know they key ingrediant in B-natal pops is the vitamin B but I didn’t see any vitamin B on the list of things in Peggie Pops.
I have a stock pile of phenegren too lol I use B natal pops a long time ago and they help w sicknesss I was just wondering if preggie pops work as well because they are more affordable

• ANSWER:
  Your best bet is to just try one and if it doesnt work try the other! They probably both work just as well but you never know until you try. I havent had any morning sickness at all so I wouldnt know which is better. I do know that Vitamin B6 is one of the best ways to take care of morning sickness though. Hope this helps a little! Good luck!

QUESTION:
How far along in the pregnancy until a woman gets morning sickness?
I know everyone is different and some women don’t even get morning sickness, but how far along is the average woman when she gets morning sickness?

• ANSWER:
  I have read that it’s usual for it to start somewhere around 6 weeks and end around 12 weeks. However, I know a lot of people also get it earlier, some as soon as they are pregnant.

  I think anytime in the first trimester is common.

QUESTION:
I’ve got a question about morning/daytime/evening sickness…?
I’m 30 weeks pregnant, and I’ve been getting sick every single day around the same time, since last Thursday. I’ve been trying to keep food down, but sometimes it just won’t stay.
Has anyone else had this problem??? I haven’t thrown up for two months other than now. Does throwing up sometimes mean baby’s comming soon or…? I don’t know. Help please!

• ANSWER:
  Sounds like morning sickness. I had it right up until delivery. Try eating smaller meals through out the day. Instead of three meals try like 6-8 small ones. Try bland foods( crackers, dry toast, broth) see if that helps the queasiness. Your body needs a constant supply of food to keep running and when your pregnant if you eat wait 7-8 hours eat wait it throws you out of whack and brings on the puking. Try the smaller meals and if it doesn’t work ask your doctor for help.

QUESTION:
Can you be pregnant and have morning sickness even if it doesn’t show on a test just yet?

QUESTION:
What are some good foods to eat when you’ve got pretty severe morning sickness?
I’m having some pretty bad problems with morning sickness, having problems even with the smell or sight of food until late in the afternoon; what are some foods that you other women out there have found that you can still eat when you’re experieincing morning sickness?

• ANSWER:
  Everyone has different taste on that so it’s kind of hard to say. But to me, salted crackers and hard fruit flavoured candies always works.

QUESTION:
Can morning sickness last all day for a week or more?
My friend is worried she’s pregnant because she’s been puking up everything for like a week, but even if morning sickness isn’t always in the morning I don’t think it would last all day.

• ANSWER:
  it can. I had it after everything I ate for the first two months. If you can find some bite sized snickers or 3 musketeers bars they might help her. When I started feeling sick I would eat one or two and it settled my stomach. My doctor said it had to do with how the proteins are in the whipped part of the candy bars. It could also just be a bug she caught, I would do a pregnancy test if she misses her cycle.

QUESTION:

Has anyone used Allegra or any other antihistamine to relieve morning sickness while pregnant?

I have a problem with hives and that is why I use allegra. I’m 9 weeks along and I noticed that when I’m using my allegra I don’t have nausea. This is my 4th pregnancy and I’m usually very sick. I used a different antihistamine my last pregnancy and it also stopped my nausea. I would like to know whether this has happened to other women.

Anyone ever heard of vomiting/morning sickness while pregnant hurting your baby?
I am 8 months now and continue to vomit about once or twice a week and then it stops! I always feel so guilty for my little one in there because I fear he feels it too? help!

• ANSWER:
  Nope. It doesn’t hurt the baby. The only thing that could cause problems with the baby is dehydration due to vomiting. Make sure to drink lots of fluids to make up for any that you are losing. But don’t stress about it, it has happened to billions of women throughout time and they survived as well as their healthy babies!

QUESTION:
How quick do women have morning sickness while pregnant?

• ANSWER:
  Everyone’s different. With my first, I had morning sickness before I even got a positive pregnancy test. That was around 4 weeks. Then my second I started getting morning sickness at 6 weeks. With this pregnancy, it didn’t start until almost 9 weeks. Some women don’t have morning sickness in the first trimester, but get it later on in their pregnancy. Some don’t even get it at all. It’s hard to tell when it’ll come on, if at all, but in general, most get it between 6-12 weeks.

QUESTION:
What are the chances that I’ll get morning sickness while pregnant with baby#2?
I never got sick at all while pregnant with our first. He’s 15 months now and we are trying for #2! I’m wondering because If I get pregnant this cycle, then if we go visiting family 5 hours away for the holidays then I’ll be about 6 weeks pregnant. Is that too early for morning sickness to start if I get it? Will my sense of smell be greater then by then? It seemed liked everything smelled bad to me pretty soon after getting pregnant with our first…I ask because one of our relatives homes that we go to doesn’t have the best of smell because they keep it so enclosed and they are older (I don’t want to be mean but I don’t want to get sick from the smell if my sense of smell is stronger). I hope no one say’s i’m being mean. : (
why would i ask my ob what my chances are of getting sick are, i’m not wasting their time on a silly question so I’m on hear asking woman with experience. don’t answer questions if you just say to ask a doctor when it’s a question that can be simply be answered by the nice people on yahoo answers.

  Top 10 Morning Sickness Tips
  From Robin Elise Weiss, LCCE,
  Your Guide to Pregnancy / Birth.

  Being pregnant means that about 75% of women will feel queasy or actually vomit at some point in their pregnancy, usually very early. While there isn’t one magic cure, here are some of the top tips to help ease your stomach.
  1) Take two crackers…Two crackers before your head leaves the pillow is old but wise advice.2) Think SmallSmaller frequent meals can also help keep an ailing belly at bay.
  3) Avoidance
  Avoid foods and smells that seem to trigger nausea. Sometimes this will be nearly every food or every smell.
  4) Blood Sugar
  Eat something high in protein before going to bed. Helps your blood sugar stay more level.
  5) A Cookie a Day…
  Ginger, teas, cookies, even the spice can be helpful in preventing nausea.
  6) Ice, Ice, Baby
  Have sips of ice water as the urge to purge strikes. Many women say that this helps them keep meals down as well.
  7) Pressure
  Acupressure bands can be worn like bracelets and can curb nausea while you wear them. But be forewarned as one mom says, stand next to a bucket when you take them off! Great Breath
  Peppermint, either smelling it in aromatherapy form or sipping the tea can help curb nausea. It’s also known to help with sagging energy levels.
  9) Relax
  Take a deep breath. It might be mind over matter sometimes. This sounds hokey but actually worked for me several times when I absolutely couldn’t afford to be ill. It didn’t curb the nausea but kept my lunch in my body.
  10) Comfort Food
  Eat what you can, if it stays down it is probably a good thing. Slowly add more foods to your diet as possible.

  *********************************************************************
  Despite its name, morning sickness—nausea and vomiting that is often one of the first symptoms of pregnancy—can happen at any time of the day. Up to 90 percent of pregnant women experience this less-than-pleasant side effect, yet scientists are only beginning to understand why running to the bathroom and saltines are a rite-of-passage for moms-to-be.
  Now, new research has shed some light onto morning sickness, and its roots lie in evolution.
  Researchers from the University of Liverpool suggest that morning sickness may have developed over time to protect pregnant women from potentially dangerous food or from eating too much unhealthy food.
  To test the theory, Dr. Craig Roberts and colleagues looked at the rates of morning sickness in different regions of the world and the typical diet of the population in that region. Ultimately, not only was “high overall food intake correlated with pregnancy sickness, but also the amount of certain types of food predicted the incidence of pregnancy sickness,” he said.

  In other words, it’s not just the amount of food you eat, but the type of food that seems to influence the degree of your morning sickness.
  To further look at this phenomenon, Roberts then compared only those women from Europe and North America and pinpointed the types of foods that seem to trigger the symptoms of morning sickness: sugars, alcohol and meat. Additionally, women who ate high amounts of cereal-based products tended to have lower-than-average rates of nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.
  The researchers theorize that women’s bodies have slowly developed an aversion to sugar, alcohol and meat because all of these foods contain high levels of toxins that could be potentially dangerous to a mother and her child. Cereals, on the other hand, tend to contain a very low level of toxins, so they could possibly be safer for a woman to eat. Remember, however, that these toxins may not pose the same hazard now that they did in the days of ancient man.
  “While there may be no particular harm in eating, say, meat, now that we have refrigeration and ‘best before’ dates,” said Roberts,”our bodies may be pre-programmed by evolution to avoid these particular foodstuffs in the first trimester.”
  If there is a particular food that seems to make your morning sickness that much worse, it may be acceptable to avoid it, but be sure to consult with your doctor before changing your diet. That way, you can be sure that you and your baby are still getting all of the vitamins and nutrients you need.

Morning sickness while pregnant?
So I found out on saturday morning that I am pregnant. I also went to a pregnancy resource center on monday to confirm the pregnancy. I’m 5 weeks today, and I have yet to have any morning sickness. I have felt a little nauseous but I haven’t been physically sick. I have a horrible fear of throwing up and I’m terrified. My sister-in-law said she didn’t have morning sickness until after 2 months and then was sick her whole pregnancy. I have also been very hungry but when I try to eat something I feel sick to my stomach but I’m still hungry. What do I do? If there’s any way to prevent the morning sickness…

• ANSWER:
  You might not ever get physically sick…I never did with any of my pregnancies I was just always really nauseous. I was 6 to 8 weeks before I felt sick. Alot of women never have morning sickness. Talk to you dr about some kind of nausea mediation. Go to mother hood the clothing store they have candies that help your nausea and drink ginger ale and eat crackers. And I noticed whole milk made it worse for me but thats not all people. I hope all works out for you. You will learn on you pregnancy journey what helps you and makes it better for you and what Not to eat.

QUESTION:
Do dogs experience morning sickness while pregnant? Pregnancy signs in a boxer?
I am fostering an abonded/abused possible pregnant (still not sure if she is or is not pregnant) dog and she threw up this morning..I have been curious if she may be pregnant or not, she shows some signs, but her next check up isn’t for another month so I won’t know if she is pregnant until then..that is also the time they will spay her if she is not pregnant. She is a two year old boxer and has been possibly pregnant for a little over a month. Many people say you won’t notice any growth in the abdomen right until the end because they are a larger breed. Is there any other visible signs of a pregnant boxer? Is morning sickness true?

• ANSWER:
  I have never heard of a dog having morning sickness, it doesn’t work that way. I have noticed that many will sort of “dial it down”, quieter and resting more, even early on. My girl becomes something of a “cling-on”, instead of lying beside me when sitting in a chair, she wants to lay in my lap. This is unusual behavior for my dog, and easy to pickup on. You may notice slight changes in her nipples, as they become firmer and more pink in color.

  Did you just get this dog? How long have you had her? I think you will notice more behavioral changes than anything else, but if you have not had her long enough to really know her normal behavior; the changes may be hard to spot.

  Most dogs, large or small, don’t “show” until they are well along with the pregnancy. They need to be at least 32 days to get an accurate ultrasound, which will tell you for sure if she is pregnant. If you think the breeding could have taken place over a month ago, make an appointment now and take her in for an ultrasound. That way if she is pregnant you can start setting up to whelp a litter.

  If you have other questions feel free to contact me. Good luck.

QUESTION:
More morning sickness while pregnant with your girls or boys?
Just curious as I know that is no way to tell if I am having a girl or boy, just doing it for the fun of it. I only had a few hours a day of morning sickness with my son. With this pregnancy I am having it all day long and at night too. I never seem to get a break. Anyway everyone I talk too says they were they same way when they were pregnant with a girl. Another funny thing, which also can’t be counted on is I did the Chinese gender predictor test and came up with a girl. It was right with my son, so here in a few month I guess I will find out if it is right with this one also. What’s your thoughts?
Barely over 7 weeks with number 2. Can’t wait to find out if it is a boy or girl, I hope the doctor can tell at 16 weeks like he did with my son. That would be awesome to find out if I am having a girl.

• ANSWER:
  From my experience, every pregnancy is different. I have two boys right now and both pregnancies were so completely different that I was convinced I was having a girl. I was sick with my first but it went away soon and I felt great. I was soooo very sick with my second (morning & night) all throughout the whole entire pregnancy up until the day I delivered. It was very hard to be sick the whole time. I am now pregnant with baby number 3 and this pregnancy is alot like the first. I was sick in the beginning and now I feel great. We are excited to find out the sex when baby comes! Good luck to you!!!

QUESTION:
how often do you get morning sickness while pregnant?
I am 8 weeks pregnant today. I am just wanting to know how often yall got morning sickness or kinda just sick like you may lose your food. My (what I think is morning sickness) started last week. I seem to be kinda just sick in the morning….like acting like i am going to get sick in the shower. I have thrown up a few time in the morning and also 2 or 3 times at night. I seem to just feel sick during the day, off and on. I just want to see if yalls sickness was like this as well. Like, where it is not everyday.
I had a miscarriage last sept and never was sick. I am just scared to have another miscarriage, so I just want to make sure that everything is going ok. With the miscarriage I had, it was a missed miscarriage, so I did not even know I had one until I went back to the doc.

• ANSWER:
  Morning sickness is differant for everyone. I had it severely to the point I was on iv’s and medications for it. Mine lasted from 5wks til I gave birth. Normally it supposed to subside around 13-15wks. The nurses always told me that the sicker you are the healthier your baby.

QUESTION:
is it normal to have pain in uper stomach while having morning sickness when pregnant?
My girlfriend just started getting morning sickness and shes about 8 weeks pregnant and said she got a pain in her upper stomach before getting sick. She was wondering if that’s normal

• ANSWER:
  Stomach and throat pain is normal, what with all the muscle movement and stomach fluids being brought back up.

  But I do wonder if her pain may be coming from her gallbladder (I found this out when I was 16 weeks pregnant and had my first big attack). Some of my nausea was actually CAUSED by my gallbladder! Gallbladder problems are very common during pregnancy and can be brought on by certain foods. She may feel pain on the upper right side below her breast, and the pain may also wrap around her body to between her shoulder blades.

  The next time she sees her DR, you may want to talk to him or her about this just to rule it out. There isn’t any need to freak out about this now, just ask to be safe!

Also, drinking a lot of alcohol during pregnancy is obviously taboo and not supposed to happen, but if you have one mouthful of red wine when you feel nauseated, will it honestly affect the baby as much as binge drinking and getting wasted at a party would? Just wondering because I hear it is a life saver…
A large study examined 400,000 women in the U.S., all of whom had consumed alcohol during pregnancy. Not a single case of fetal alcohol syndrome occurred and no adverse effects on children were found when consumption was under 8.5 drinks per week. 3

A review of research studies found that fetal alcohol syndrome only occurs among alcoholics. The evidence is clear that there is no apparent risk to a child when the pregnant woman consumes no more than one drink per day. 4
A study of moderate drinking during pregnancy found no negative effects. The researchers suggested that one drink per day provides a significant margin of safety, although they did not encourage drinking during pregnancy. 5

• ANSWER:
  I know that some doctors say it is okay to have an occassional glass of wine during the second or third trimester, but it is not worth the risk and I don’t know of any doctor who would say it is okay during the first trimester. This is one of the most important trimester where all of the vital organs are forming.

QUESTION:
Motion Sickness/Morning Sickness Remedy While Pregnant?
I’m 6.5 weeks pregnant and my morning sickness is something terrible. It’s exasperated when in the car, which I found out last night after dinner, vomiting into a target bag during the 20 minute trip home. I was already wearing Sea Bands, and I’ve had a history of motion sickness before getting pregnant, but the bands were the only remedy. As they don’t seem to be working now, I really need some other suggestions.

The boyf and I were planning on driving to Vegas (from LA) for Thanksgiving, but if I can’t handle 20 minutes in the car, I don’t know how I can possible do 4-5 hours. Does anyone have any other suggestions for managing motion sickness during pregnancy while traveling?

QUESTION:
What happens if you dont have morning sickness when you are pregnant but you know that you are pregnant?
Is something wrong with you if you dont have morning sickness while you are pregnant but you know for a fact that you are pregnant? Will you still have morning sickness eventhough it hasnt happened in the first couple of weeks ?

• ANSWER:
  Not every woman will get morning sickness. Although most women will have it, there are the lucky ones that don’t get it. Just like some women will have back pain, headaches, etc, just b/c you’re pregnant doesn’t mean you absolutely will experience those things. That doesn’t mean there is anything wrong, you should be happy that you aren’t getting it b/c that is horrible. There is a chance you could still get it, some women will have it off and on their entire pregnany or may just have it a few times. Just enjoy the time you do have w/o it

QUESTION:
What are your thoughts about smoking marijuana while pregnant, due to morning sickness?

• ANSWER:
  I think it can be comparable to smoking cigarettes while pregnant except that marijuana carries The added benefit that can help with morning sickness in addition you don’t smoke nearly the amount of m,marijuana as you smoke cigarettes. It kept me from loosing more than 15 lbs during my first trimester. I couldn’t keep anything down, though not from a lack of trying, I got so tired of throwing up and being queasy. The way I see it, there are worse things you could do when you are pregnant and it can actually help with the morning sickness.

  Thumbs down me all you want just remember I am not telling you how to live your life or raise your kids.

  Edit: My baby was not under weight, she is absolutely fine. I dare any of you to actually find proof that it negatively effects the outcome. An actual study that proves it. http://www.medicalcannabis.com/pregnancy.htm

QUESTION:
Diclectin for morning sickness/nausea while pregnant?
I’m 12 weeks, and I’m on my 2nd bottle of 40 of Diclectin. I research it when I first got it when I was 5 weeks. I didn’t find anything bad. Anyway, My boyfriends mother who worry’s so much about medicines and such called saying that it was bad for the baby. Then said the name Bendectin. Which is the same drug taken off the market in the states in the 80′s.

Here’s a link, Anyone else taking this medicine and or have taken it.

I tell you it really worked. I stopped taking it last night and this morning I woke up so sick and vomited my breakfast and lunch. =(

http://brightline.typepad.com/law_evolution_science_and/2005/03/bendectin_retur.html

• ANSWER:
  That is what my doc prescribed to me also when I was throwing up for 24 hrs straight several times per hour. My doc said it is OK for pregnancy and the pharmacist also said the same. Sounds like you did your research.

QUESTION:
Morning sickness…I’m just wondering how soon did morning sickness start while you were pregnant? and?
how often did you feel morning sickness, was it everyday?

Thanks in advance!

• ANSWER:
  Mine started between 4 and 6 weeks pregnant and lasted until about 16 weeks. I was sick all day long, not just in the morning. However, I am also prone to hyperemesis so I’m slightly abnormal. Most women should experience sickness around 6 weeks and be feeling much better by 12.

QUESTION:
Medicine safe for morning sickness while breastfeeding?
Is there any safe prescription to take while breastfeeding and pregnant that would help with morning sickness? I am waiting on my dr’s office to call back, but sometimes drs do not always have the best advice. Do you know what medications would be safe to take while breastfeeding for severe morning sickness? I have tried all natural remedies and nothing has worked.
I am currently taking a natural morning sickness supplement that has B-6, ginger, and red rasberry tea in it but it has not helped at all.

• ANSWER:
  Have you tried taking a Ginger pill? Its known to be one of the best motion sickness remedies. I mention that because those sea sickness wrist bands help a lot of women with morning sickness (they didnt help me) so ginger might as well. Be sure to ask your doctor about any medication or suplement prior to use though =)

  -Edit: Thats no fun, I had no luck with anything for my sickness as well. I read something about a newly medically approved morning sickness medication while pregnant, which I would think if its safe to a baby while inside, it would be while breastfeeding but im not sure of the name. Hopefully your doctor will have more information or something for you to try =(

QUESTION:
is it possible to not get morning sickness at all..while pregnant?
i’m six or seven weeks now.. and i haven’t gotten it.
before i missed my period though..i felt nauseated a few times..and puked once.
but it went away.
was that morning sickness?
and does it usually come back?

• ANSWER:
  Pregnancy is subject to two extremes and everything in between. From having a whole array of symptoms to having none at all. It all depends on the woman and the pregnancy. The same woman could have different symptoms for each pregnancy. It all depends on what affect the pregnancy has on your body. There is no way to know for sure. You may never have morning sickness or it may kick in later. Good luck

QUESTION:
Is it normal to have morning sickness in the morning at around 10 P.M. while pregnant ?
Im pregnant and I’ve been having lots of sickness . Its getting to the point where I can’t even look at food without wanting to get sick . I get sick around 6 A.M. and around 10 P.M. and this is almost every night . Is this normal?
Sory while i was typing the question i wasnt paying attention , morning isnt supposed to be in there twice.

• ANSWER:
  Yes, I am 37 weeks pregnant now, and for about the first 4-5 months I had morning sickness all the time! It helps to at least have something in your stomach so when you do get sick its not as bad. The thing that really helped me was Peppermints it really helps to sooth your stomach and it kind of calms your breathing helping you relax more. I hope you start feeling better soon. It does get better, doesnt seem like it now, but it will clear up Hang in there

QUESTION:
Morning sickness – smarter baby?
I just read a report that claims new studies suggest mothers who experienced morning sickness while pregnant may have a baby with a higher IQ, I find it sceptical, just wanted to hear your thoughts. Thanks

http://www.leaderpost.com/Life/Morning+sickness+leads+smarter+kids+Study/1523961/story.html

• ANSWER:
  Haha.

  I was sick all the time, every day, up until week 15. Noah is going to be a genius at this rate!

  It seems as if there is a study out there for everything pointing one way or another. All it is is to make people feel better about what they are going through. The study itself said “The difference “wasn’t clinically very important,” he says. “It was a few points of IQ, and other functions such as language development.” So obviously it’s not on a large scale.

QUESTION:
Is it normal to be dizzy while pregnant?
I’m 11 weeks and this morning is the first time I’ve experienced dizziness while pregnant.

My morning sickness has gotten much better so I know it’s not because I’m dehydrated or have low blood sugar. I can’t think of any other reason for the dizziness except maybe pregnancy related hormones?

Is there anything I can do to not be dizzy? Have any of you experienced this? How did you deal with it?

• ANSWER:
  it could be hypoglycemia (low blood sugars). I was diagnosed with it yesterday and now it all makes so much sense!! Average person is 90-120 during pregnancy and yesterday even after eating a piece of candy i was bottomed out at 52. You should get yours checked. All I have to do is eat every 2-3 hours to keep myself from feeling odd. Like dizzy, weak, tired, irritable…. all signs of hypoglycemia.

QUESTION:
‘Morning Sickness’?
When does the sickness start in pregnancy? before or after? and has anyone not had any morning sickness while pregnant?

• ANSWER:
  Morning sickness usually is present(if at all present) in the first two months of pregnancy.
  Many women do not have morning sickness while pregnancy, but some do and some just feel sick, but don’t actually get sick.
  If you are wondering whether or not you will get morning sickness I suggest asking other female family members who have children if they experienced morning sickness during pregnancy, such as your mother, aunts, or your grandmother, and as always your doctor can answer any questions you have concerning the matter.
  Good Luck!
  Jessica

QUESTION:
Do all woman get morning sickness?!?
Do all people get morning sickness while pregnant. & do some people just feel like they are gonna throw up and never do?! im about 6 weeks and usually after i eat i feel nauseas but i havnt thrown up! just wondering if i should worry that im not having morning sickness.! ugh im just a wreck that im gonna miscarry because im so excited about it being pregnant!!

• ANSWER:
  Don’t worry. Some pregnant women throw up, some feel nauseated but don’t throw up, and some don’t have any “morning sickness” symptoms at all!

QUESTION:
Pregnant while using a condom? Negative PT but morning sickness symptoms?
My husband and I have been using a condom as BC since my daughter was born 3 1/2 months ago. I am also nursing my daughter still and haven’t even gotten a regular period back (my last one happened more or less a month ago). However, the last few days I’ve been feeling sick in the morning and this morning, the fridge smells hit me full blast (while pregnant with my other 2 girls I had MS similar to this). However, I took a pregnancy test this morning and it showed negative. Can I be having morning sickness before a test even shows I’m pregnant? Has anyone you know gotten pregnant while using a condom and nursing?

• ANSWER:
  It’s unlikely that you’re having MS with a negative pregnancy test, but anything is possible. Wait a few days and take another test. I had similar symptoms last month before my period was even late and it turned out to be a stomach bug. I wasn’t pregnant, but I was sick only in the morning and couldn’t handle certain smells. Try some ginger ale with real ginger in it or try chewing some dried ginger. Anything with ginger in it really helps with the sick feeling, no matter what it is. I’ve known people who got pregnant while nursing, but never while nursing and using a condom. Good luck!

QUESTION:
Morning Sickness! Can I take ‘Gravol, Long Lasting’ while pregnant?
I am 7 weeks pregnant and suffering from morning sickness from 11am-2pm. I cant leave work during the day so I need something that works. I have been prescribed diclectin but its too expensive (0 that I dont have) I’ve heard that I can take Gravol, but all I have with me is the 12 hour long lasting kind (in the pink box). It isnt the “Natural Source” kind, is it still safe to take?
I should also say, I HATE ginger! lol
The smell/taste makes me gag, which really doesnt help my situation…

QUESTION:
Safe medicine for morning sickness while breastfeeding?
Is there any safe prescription to take while breastfeeding and pregnant that would help with morning sickness? I am waiting on my dr’s office to call back, but sometimes drs do not always have the best advice. Do you know what medications would be safe to take while breastfeeding for severe morning sickness? I have tried all natural remedies and nothing has worked.
I have read about Zofran, but I was not sure if it was safe while nursing.

DYOT: I am in the US… right now I am taking a natural morning sickness supplement that they sell at the health food store and it is B-6, ginger, and red raspberry, but it is doing no good. I am going to google what you mentioned.

• ANSWER:
  According to Thomas Hale, who wrote Medications and Mother’s Milk, Zofran is considered safe while breastfeeding. You can ask your doctor about it. Many women find it very helpful for nausea during pregnancy.

QUESTION:
Has anyone had their morning sickness start in the evening?
I am 5-6 weeks along (waiting on an ultrasound to figure out how far I am really) and today I was completely fine till about 5pm when I started getting nausous. It got really bad after dinner and I ened up getting sick, My last pregnancy I just woke up with morning sickness (and had it all day ugh!). After I ate some crackers I feel better but have never heard of morning sickness starting in the evening. Isn’t that something that happens over night and not during the day?

• ANSWER:
  Yes, my “morning sickness” was really evening sickness when I was pregnant with my first.

QUESTION:
What is the earliest Morning sickness could start?
I had horrible morning sickness with my first child.

Ive been trying to conceive for about 6 months now.
Aunt flow has made her lovely entrance each month.

This month however, I feel Extremely nauseous. My period is due on tuesday ( 6 days from now).

Im Know it is possible for me to have gotten pregnant. I am going to wait until I have missed my period by a few days.

Could I have morning sickness already if that was the case? I would only be around a couple of weeks pregnant, right?

• ANSWER:
  YUP!!! It is possible. I had the “flu” (morning sickness) exactly 2 days before my period came. I hadn’t missed my period, so I was sure I wasn’t pregnant – I took a pregnancy test right at work on my lunch break just in case and BAM! boy was I wrong! If it is the hormones making you feel sick, then the LH is probably already detectable with a pregnancy test. Usually first signs of symptoms, you can detect it – You don’t have to wait for your period, just try First Response. Lots of luck to you, and hope the morning sickness ends soon!

QUESTION:
Is morning sickness linked to the health of the pregnancy?
I know what causes morning sickness, but I was wondering what evidence there is for a pregnancy that experiences morning sickness or doesn’t in relation to helth of the foetus and health of the baby. Does a pregnancy with morning sickness indicate a healthier foetus/baby?

• ANSWER:
  My wife was told that morning sickness is a good sign that the baby is healthy by her obgyn.

QUESTION:
When does morning sickness typically start when you are pregnant?
I am 5 weeks pregnant with my second, and so far have been feeling great. A little tired, but not too bad. With my first I had no morning sickness, just a loss of appetite that lasted my entire pregnancy. I didn’t know I was pregnant last time until i was about 6 or 7 weeks (I actually got one period!).
I was just wondering when the pregnancy symptoms usually start?

• ANSWER:
  If you are early in your pregnancy, you may be wondering when the morning sickness starts.

  Maybe never. But chances are good you will.

  Nausea and vomiting are common symptoms in early pregnancy for many women. Depending on the study, 50 to 75% of pregnant women suffer from morning sickness.

  Typically, morning sickness starts before the 6th week of pregnancy and peaks between 8 and 12 weeks.

  If morning sickness begins after 9 weeks of gestation, be sure to mention it to your doctor to make sure there are no other causes of nausea or vomiting.

  Anyways, when i was pregnant with my son, i didnt get morning sickness until the very end of my first trimester (for some odd reason), and i only got it around 2am… it didnt last a long time, maybe a week or two. Some women might get it with one pregnancy and then not the next

QUESTION:
How did morning sickness start for you?
I’m 6 weeks pregnant and morning sickness hit me hard. I got a bad headache earlier, then I felt the need to just get sick. Went to the bathroom 4-5 times and got sick each time. How did it start for you? Does this sound like morning sickness?

• ANSWER:
  i thought i was having a miscarriage!! my boyfriend was making a bath for us, then i go into the bathroom wanting to cry because i was having bad cramps, he sat me on his lap, and said babe i really hope your not having a miscarriage i said i think i am, had more cramps, started crying, got hot all over my body, then bam! i threw up then instantly felt better! lol. and i was also 6 weeks!

QUESTION:
Is it normal for morning sickness to return during the third trimester?
I am 32 weeks. For the past few days I have been feeling what I can only describe as morning sickness, similar to the beginning of pregnancy. I’m really sick for awhile, then up and doing things later. Some of the things that helped during the first trimester aren’t helping now, so any suggestions? This is my second pregnancy, and I didn’t experience any sort of sickness the first time around so this is new to me!

• ANSWER:
  Wow you sound just like I did!!!!

  I’m 36 weeks along and I had the same feeling the other day and at my dr apt jI asked her about it and she said that it happens when your having braxton hicks, sometimes you can’t even feel them. But she said it is perfectly normal!!!!

  Also expect some dizziness and fatigue to come soon too

QUESTION:
How early can morning sickness start in a pregancy?
My wife for the last 2 days has woken up nauseated. We have a 2 year old, and this is par for the course based on her last time being pregnant. However, we have not taken a test, and her last cycle ended just about 3 weeks ago? Could this be morning sickness?

• ANSWER:
  Yeah, it certainly could be! I started feeling sick at night (I’m 13 weeks and still I get “morning sickness” at night), about 1-1.5 weeks before my period was supposed to start.

  I’d recommend waiting about a week and then having her take a test, but it certainly sounds like she might be pregnant! Especially if the nausea is not accompanied by any other symptoms of a stomach bug and if it goes away later in the day.

QUESTION:
Is morning sickness stopping a sign somethings wrong with the baby?
I am about 6wks prego and I had morning sickness for about 4-5days and now I just feel queezy. I am likeing foods I didn’t before and not likeing my usually favorites. I am peeing like crazy and I am hungrey all of the time, plus my pre-prego jeans I can’t even zip up. I can’t see the doctor until Wed morning. This is my fourth pregnancy. My morning sickness has gotten better with every pregnany so far.

• ANSWER:
  No it’s not a sign at all your baby should be fine. Morning sickness is very common early in a pregnancy. It tends to go away later in pregnancy, and it’s almost always gone by the second trimester (the fourth month). But there isn’t a set time for it to stop because each woman is different, and each pregnancy is different.

QUESTION:
What are home remedies for morning sickness?
I’m 9 weeks and 5 days pregnant and this morning sickness is really kicking my butt. Is their any Home remedies i can do to stop the sickness being so bad?

• ANSWER:
  The most important thing right now is to stay hydrated. You really don’t want to be dehydrated, so drink as much as possible. Take small sips so as not to overwhelm your stomach. Water can sometimes hurt an empty stomach, so try ginger ale with the bubbles stirred out (carbonation can also hurt your stomach), powerade or gatorade, or juice, if you can manage it.

  If you do get dehydrated, don’t wait–go to the emergency room and get fluids intravenously. It’s not fun, but it will make you feel better and break the vicious cycle of dehydration.

  Other things that might work for you are popsicles or ices, and fruit–a lot of miserably pregnant women find that they CAN eat fruit, so try out different kinds if that appeals at all. For me, I found that I could eat (at different times) strawberries, grapefruit, and thinly sliced golden delicious apples. It was weirdly specific, but it kept me alive!

  You should try having very small “meals”–a bite of a cracker here and there when you can stomach it. A lot of people find that keeping crackers or something light next to their bed and taking a few bites before they even get out of bed in the morning. You will feel worse if your stomach is empty, so keeping food in it–even just a little bit–will help stave off the misery.

  You might also want to try adding peanut butter to your crackers. Peanut butter has protein, which will make you feel better if you can keep it down.

  If nothing else works, ask your doctor for medication like reglan or zofran to help.

  Good luck!

QUESTION:
Is it normal to have really bad morning sickness into your second trimester?
I’m already into my second trimester, almost at five months now, and I have such bad morning sickness that I can’t keep anything down. I am also getting severe headaches with neck pain and bruising on my neck. I am currently taking diclectin, a pill for morning sickness specifically for pregnant women. My doctor on Monday recommended that I got off the pills, but I found I couldn’t without the sickness recurring. I can’t help but think that this isn’t normal. He said I should definitely be over the morning sickness by now.

• ANSWER:
  Every woman and pregnancy is different. Some women don’t get morning sickness and some have it all through their pregnancy. You never know what to expect but I am sure that it should subside soon. Good luck!

QUESTION:
What has worked for you to relieve morning sickness?
My sister is pregnant with her first baby (Yay!). She is having terrible morning sickness, and the traditional remedies like crackers and ginger ale don’t seem to help much. I didn’t have morning sickness myself so I don’t know what to tell her. Has anyone tried anything unique that worked?

• ANSWER:
  Biobands worked wonders for me. They are just pressure point wristbands. A lot of cancer patients and soon to be mothers use them, my doctor recomended them.

QUESTION:
How can you tell the difference between morning sickness and low blood sugar in the morning?
I have a tendancy to feel nauseous in the morning due to low blood sugar. But I now I have the feeling that I could be pregnant (if I had conceived, it would have been around Nov 14. But I had my period which came late and lasted only 3 days last week) How can you tell the difference between morning sickness and just low blood sugar?

• ANSWER:
  You don’t puke from low blood sugar.

QUESTION:
Can morning sickness be on and off during the day?
I was wondering, I am not sure if it is morning sickness or just in my head. Lately I have been getting nausea on and off during the day. I am still not sure If I am pregnant, because three weeks after unprotected intercourse I got my period. So I didnt think much of it,but now I seem to get nauseated everyday on and off, and my breast are sort of tender, tired. I know it is still possible to get your period even if you are pregnant. What are some of your experiences with morning sickness?

• ANSWER:
  Mine was worst when trying to cook dinner (especially pork). Sure, it can vary in its timing.

  If you are wanting to be pregnant, then I hope you are, sugar, but while it is POSSIBLE to have a period and be pregnant, it’s not very PROBABLE. Go ahead and get a test. You could be giving yourself these symptoms just by worrying.

  Good luck.

QUESTION:
What are the symptoms of morning sickness?
I have been feeling sick since about 12:00am it just came on really quick. I am extremely dizzy and have a horrible stomach ache but I haven’t thrown up. And dizzyness isn’t usually a sign of morning sickness is it? I am just wondering because my period didn’t come this month, but I also couldn’t afford my birth control this month so that could why I don’t have my period. I just don’t know why I would be so sick.

QUESTION:
When do the symptoms of morning sickness start?
I just found out that I am pregnant but I don’t feel anything like morning sickness. I do get a little nauseous but no vomiting.

• ANSWER:
  Nausea is one of the first signs of pregnancy and is very common in the early stages. It starts somewhere between the fourth and sixth week of pregnancy and is therefore one of the first pregnancy signs. For most women, morning sickness will disappear by the 14th to 16th week. Some women experience NVP throughout their entire pregnancy. There are several factors at play including pregnancy hormones and higher sensitivity to odors.

QUESTION:
How do you deal with morning sickness when commuting to work?
I have just starting feeling morning sickness and am getting worried about the journey to work. I am lucky in that I drive to work so I can pull over if I need to, but does anyone have a plan in case it comes about all of a sudden?

• ANSWER:
  I am on vacation right now but I have thought of it and I made little plan for myself. It sometimes hits when I am out and about so it is useful for that, too. I keep my little emergency bag in my purse. I took a small makeup case and filled it with a plastic bag, mouth wash (travel size), and wipees (travel size). I was thinking maybe I should carry a small snack bag of crackers, too. So far I have not needed it but it makes me feel good that I am prepared.

  If you don’t like the idea of mouth wash, Colgate also has these little disposable toothbrushes that freshen your breath called Wisps. They are are very small and don’t require water. I was thinking about switching to those.

QUESTION:
What does morning sickness feel like, and how early did it start for you?
I know it makes you nauseous, but does it feel like the flu? Like indigestion? Like gas pains? And how early does it start? We’ve been trying for awhile and I’m a few days away from when my period is supposed to start. Is that too early to have morning sickness? Because I woke up at 5 with stomach pains and couldn’t go back to sleep and haven’t been able to eat anything yet.

• ANSWER:
  All of my morning sickness started before I knew that I was pregnant. With my first, I started feeling really sick about two weeks before I took the test-a full week before my missed my period. At first, I was terrified because I thought there is no way I can spend the next few months curled up on the couch ready to hurl all the time. But, with me, it gets better after the first few weeks and goes away totally by the 16th week. I feel queesy-like I just rode a roller coaster after eating a hot dog-and I’m very tired and either too hot or too cold. I try to take a bath every day (making sure I keep my arms and legs out to control my body temperature) and that really helps. I also get back pain and I like to use a portable heater to blast my back with hot air while I’ve got the a/c cranked up. Not very energy efficent but when I’m that sick I feel entitled to a little overspending. I ate dill pickles and green olives for ten weeks during my first and dropped twenty pounds almost right away (I had a little extra I could part with so it wasn’t a really big deal). Just keep in mind that it WILL end someday and that your baby will take everything it needs from your body before you use it for yourself-so if you feel like crap be assured that s/he is quite comfortable even when you’re not!

QUESTION:
How did you deal with morning sickness and work?
My husband and I are currently TTC #1, and I’m a little worried about how I’m going to handle the morning sickness at work. We don’t want to tell anyone until I’m 12 weeks. I work in an office with one bathroom on our floor. How did you ladies keep your pregnancy a secret at your jobs when you had morning sickness?

• ANSWER:
  Well you might get much of it or you might even be luckier and not get it at all. My sister has four kids and she probably threw up a grand total of 4 times.

  But I will tell you that people might not notice at all regardless. I was throwing up several times a day everyday. And people didn’t notice. Not until after I told them at 14 weeks. I was still throwing up and only a few people knew that I was still sick.

  If they do notice then tell them you think you have a bit of food poisoning. Or you started some medicine for allergies or something normal that has nausea as a side effect.

QUESTION:
What’s the difference between morning sickness and a hangover?
I got very drunk last night. Apparently I had cybersex and now I’m pregnant with a cyberbaby. If it’s morning sickness I should be cured in a couple of hours, right? But if it’s a hangover, I’d better start eating asperines.

• ANSWER:
  Well, if it’s just a hangover, it will be gone by the end of the day. If you’re pregnant, you’ll have a robo-baby at the end of… (what’s the gestation period for robots?) well at the end of whenever.

  And Barney’s right about the brain cells. I’d invest in some extra memory sticks if I were you.

QUESTION:
What’s the difference between morning sickness and the stomach flu?
Every so often I have been feeling nauseous not all the time it kind of comes and goes, but I haven’t thrown up. Just wondering what the difference is between morning sickness and the flue or stomach virus.

• ANSWER:
  Generally speaking, with morning sickness you get nauseous and either get over it or throw up and feel better. With the flu, you don’t often feel better after throwing up. Is your period late? If it is and you have been having sex, I would recommend you take a pregnancy test. Good luck!

QUESTION:
How to alleviate morning sickness during pregnancy?
Hey guys, my wife is in the bed and is terrible condition. This is our second baby and it seems her morning sickness is back stronger than before. Last time it lasted about 2 months and we’re about 2 weeks into the second one. We’re looking for some natural remedies that could help her out…

• ANSWER:
  Have her eat small meals throughout the day- even snacks, but at least every two hours. If her stomach is really full or empty, it’ll make it worse.

  If you can, take some food to her. With mine, I couldn’t stand the thought of making food, but if someone brought it to me, I was able to eat it- I guess because I didn’t have to think about it.

  Try to get her to eat protein, also, not just carbohydrates. While carbohydrates may be more appetizing, the protein stays in her system longer (for me, cheese or peanut butter crackers helped).

  Have her take smalls sips of water throughout the day. Buy some Popsicles- they’ll keep her hydrated, and they honestly help my stomach.

  People recommend ginger, but honestly, it didn’t help me much. You can try Sea Bands- from the pharmacy, they’re designed for motion-sickness, but they help a lot of women.

QUESTION:
What week does morning sickness normally arrive in?
I’m 6 weeks pregnant and not really experiencing many symptoms. I had cramping around the time of my period, but since then, nothing. This is my second pregnancy and i can remember really sore boobs and awful morning sickness but can’t remember when it started. Should i be worried that i’m not getting any symptoms? Thanks!

• ANSWER:

QUESTION:
How early in your pregnancy can you start to get morning sickness?
About a week ago, I took a positive pregnancy test. I figure that I’m somewhere between 2 and 3 weeks along, but I haven’t made it to the doctor yet, so I don’t know for sure. For the past three days I’ve felt extremely nauseous. I thought it was too early to be getting morning sickness, but my friend says it can start pretty early. Have I come down with something or is it really morning sickness?
Thanks.

• ANSWER:
  The discovery health program had a new special on yesterday and said that the latest studies show that women can begin experiencing the first signs of pregnancy as early as eight days after conception. So congrats it is most likely morning sickness. And although it sucks let me give you some good news. Studies show that although they are unable to find a reason for the connection between morning sickness and the health of the baby…. numerous studies done show that women who experience morning sickness are twice as likely as those who don’t to have a healthy baby.
  Good luck.

QUESTION:
How early can you start to experience morning sickness?
I’ve had two children before this, and never experienced morning sickness before… If I am pregnant it can’t be more than 2- 3 weeks, but I started throwing up a week ago, constantly. So I was wondering if I could possibly be pregnant, because it’s too early for an over the counter test.

• ANSWER:
  I think if you were very tune in to your body 2 weeks post implantation would be the earliest.

QUESTION:
What are the diffrences between being sick and morning sickness?
I’m writing a story and my character is pregnant and having morning sickness, but I’m don’t know if like having a fever or something?

Is it like having a fever?

Does it only happen in the morning?

How long do you feel sick after and before it happens? (On average, don’t worry too much. I mainly want to know if you do feel sick before and after.)

Does it normally happen after you have eaten?

• ANSWER:
  I had terrible morning sickness until 6 months! It can happen any time of the day, and in some cases like mine all day AND night it doesn’t feel like a fever it feels like I just got off a ride at the fair, the ones that spin you around in circles or something similar, as soon as you get off that ride your tummy is turning like crazy and that’s what it feels like. Sometimes if I made myself puke I would feel instantly better, sometimes that feeling would stick around. I got sick before I ate, because the thought of eating made me nauseous, then sometimes it went away and sometimes not :/

  Hope that was helpful!

QUESTION:
How soon would you notice morning sickness?
I am just wondering. I am a week away from my period. For the last week I have been so sick to my stomach. Its mostly at night around 11pm. My stomach just hurts. I get it in the morning to and by afternoon its gone. But I do get it about 2 hours or so after I eat. Its like my digestive system has just slowed right down and nothing is moving. And now I am consipated. Could it be possible it is morning sickness or is it really too soon for that and could just be something else.

• ANSWER:
  hi

  i started being sick a week before any test showed i was pregnant, you know you body best!!

  the best thing to do would be to buy a test and confirm it though, some of the more expensive tests work from around 5 days before you are due but ive always just used cheap tests and they havent been wrong yet!! If you get a neg result and are still late test again a few days later, morning is best.

  good luck!!

QUESTION:
When does morning sickness peak during the first trimester?
I’m six weeks pregnant and I’ve noticed my sickness is definitely worst in the morning. It comes and goes during the day but it only gets bad if I haven’t eaten anything. When did your morning sickness peak? I haven’t had it really bad…which also makes me nervous that something could be wrong. Whats your sickness like?

• ANSWER:
  everybody is different so no one can really tell you how yours is going to be.. I got mine at 6 weeks and im still getting it and im 17 weeks pregnant.. mine gets worse when i dont eat too tho. but i throw up out of nowhere and prenatals make me really sick right away. I had really really bad headaches also.

QUESTION:
How do I get over this morning sickness?
I’m 11 weeks along and for the last three weeks straight I’ve been so sick. I have morning sickness in the morning, in the afternoon, at night. Whenever I smell food it makes me sick. I’ve been dropping weight because I have a hard time keeping food down. Any suggestions?

• ANSWER:
  After 11 weeks your body will still be going through hormonal trauma of building a whole new body.

  If you are sick all day long, it may be time to visit your MD again, but from my point of view, it may be your vitamin supplements.

  Any time your body reacts to nutrition, whether it is in “construction” or not, the “food” or supplement is artificial, or is loaded with preservatives, additives or colorings. These are poison to the new baby, and is conducive to starving the fetus.

  My humble suggestion would be to visit with a Nutritionist in your area. Explain the situation in detail, and that person will make suggestions regarding your diet and activity routine.

  If you have no one in your area, please e-mail me privately and I will help you at no charge.

  It is important to understand that with your condition being virtually irreversible, you may have to deal with some initial discomfort; that said, weight loss is the last thing you need to experience. Every MD I know will tell you that you need at least 100 grams of pure protein per DAY, to build new muscle tissue, along with 100-250 grams of COMPLEX carbohydrates per day to metabolise the protein. GOOD fats are also necessary to help in building brain tissue and shielding the new nervous system of the baby.

  I could go on, but you get the idea. I also have a tasty, CHEAP, and easy way to control your nausea. It may cost about .00 per month….

  I hope this helps you.

QUESTION:

QUESTION:
How many weeks were you when your morning sickness started?
My daughter is 13 months old and my pregnancy with her I found out at 4w 1d that I was expecting and I never had morning sickness..

QUESTION:
How far along pregnancy do you start feeling morning sickness?
I found out I was pregnant 2 weeks ago, I’m going to see the doctor in few days, and only 2 days ago I started feeling nauseated, does any one know, at what time in pregnancy does morning sickness start?

• ANSWER:
  Symptoms usually start at 6 weeks. But give or take a week or two is normal also.

  From my experience and from what I have learned from Yahoo Q&A is that, with your first a lot of time the morning sickness starts a little earlier than your second or third. That’s how it was with me.

  My first I got morning sickness when I was between 3-4 weeks along. It was really strong and lasted well into my 6th month with no remorse – day and night lol. Now I am 19 weeks with number two, and it started at 7 weeks, lasted until around week 14-15, and every now and then it lingers, but it’s not nearly as bad as the first few weeks of it.

  Since you already have an appointment scheduled (which is great! it’s never a bad idea to get things rolling early), I would bring up the morning sickness and they can prescribe you some pregnancy safe medications to help with it. Even if it’s not that bad right now, it’s always nice knowing if it gets bad you have something to fall back on to help.

  Congrats on your baby and take care

QUESTION:
How can I hide my morning sickness from my students?
I’m a teacher at a secondary school and I’m pregnant – the problem is I’m getting really bad morning sickness, to the point that in the first lesson of the day I’m leaving two or three times. I think the students might have worked out that I’m going to be sick. Sometimes when I leave I’m practically running.
How can I hide it better so tehy don’t get suspicious?

• ANSWER:
  They have probably already figured it out, the girl atleast probably suspect something. why not just tell them you are pregnant and having morning sickness issues so if you need to run out thats why.

  I remember in highschool i had 2 teachers who were pregnant, both ran out numerous times to puke. We figured it out after a few days of it. It was no biggie to us, we were happy for them and even brought in different candies to let the teacher suck on if she felt sick.

I cant have ovulated more than a week ago…but the past few days I’ve been feeling really sick on and off. Especially this morning/today. I don’t have a fever or any other symptoms. It’s possible I could be pregnant since my husband and I are TTC.
Is it possible for morning sickness to start this early, or could this just be some kind of stomach bug/food upset?
Thanks.

• ANSWER:
  I started getting morning sickness right after i missed my first period. it came to me really strong and pretty much all day, not just mornings. Even before i started throwing up however i was starting to feel really wierd. My emotions were super rocky and unstable but then i was just concerned about why i was throwing up so much.

QUESTION:
Is it possible to have morning sickness from the day of implantation?
I understand that this wouldn’t be COMMON, but I’m asking if its possible?

If I am pregnant this month (fingers crossed) then implantation would only have been within the last few days, but I am feeling (not being) sick already. I have no other symptoms as yet.

I don’t think its a bug or food poisoning, because I am not actually being sick. This feels a lot like the morning sickness I had with previous pregnancies, but I didn’t think it was possible to start all that this early on.

What are your thoughts and experiences please ladies?

• ANSWER:
  YES its possible
  once implantation has happened the HCG is rising which is what your body reacts to to cause all these symptoms and changes

QUESTION:
How did you cope with morning sickness whilst breastfeeding a very young baby?
Obviously you need a decent diet whilst breastfeeding in order to give your baby the nourishment he/she needs, so how did you cope with that whilst having morning sickness?

• ANSWER:
  My son was 13 months old, so not a young baby, when I found out I was pregnant. I actually found nursing to reduce my morning sickness. If I started feeling nauseated, I nursed and had a snack at the same time. My son ended up weaning himself at 19 1/2 months when I was 26 weeks along.

QUESTION:

  Ask your mom or grandmother how bad their morning sickness was. That is sometimes a good indicator of how bad yours may be.

  Maybe you will get lucky and not have it at all, some women are that lucky!!

QUESTION:
Can you get morning sickness if you stay awake all night?
I know morning sickness isn’t just in the morning for some women, but does everything going on in your body get triggered by laying down somehow? If you stay active all night will you delay the symptoms of morning sickness, prevent them, or worsen them? What causes it?

• ANSWER:
  When I was pregnant I found that staying up all night and being more active made my “morning” sickness worse.

  It is caused my changes in your body, for example your hormonal changes.

QUESTION:
Morning sickness with 1st pregnancy, morning sickness with all pregnancies???
If I had really bad morning sickness in my first pregnancy, will I have it with my next and subsequent pregnancies too? Or is it possible to not have it with the next one? What is your experience? Morning sickness with all pregnancies, or some yes, some no? Thanks!

• ANSWER:
  My sister had a terrible morning sickness in her first pregnancy and dreaded having another, but on a second try, she didnt have any morning sickness at all. infact she couldnt believe it untill she had the second baby. (both of them baby boys)

QUESTION:

QUESTION:
Is morning sickness by pregnancy depends on the individual woman?
I have been queasy since my intercourse with my boyfriend. After about 3 weeks i found out that i have morning sickness. Is 3 weeks normal, or can different woman have different times morning sickness occurrence?

I keep researching that morning sickness occurs about 6 weeks after intercourse and mine was about 3.

• ANSWER:
  It varies between each woman and each pregnancy even with the same woman. I’m 17w6d and I’ve hardly had any morning sickness at all, I’ve been nauseous on occasion and I’ve never puked.

QUESTION:
Can I be having morning sickness and pregnancy cramps 4 to 5 days after getting pregnant?
I had sex with my bf 5 to 6 days ago and I was ovulating he didn’t ejaculate inside of me but he did in the opening of my vagina. I think he might of push some inside of me. Now my bReast feel kind of sore and I’ve been cramping, also been having something like morning sickness. Is too soon or I’m pregnant?

• ANSWER:
  It’s unlikely that you’re experiencing symptoms this early on, it can take a while for the sperm to reach the egg in the first place, especially if you don’t actually release an egg when you think you’re going to. It’s never exactly on the 14th day, everyone’s cycle is different. Breast tenderness and cramping could be a sign of your period, it might be that you’re going to have one early. Or of course there is always that chance, however slim, that you could be pregnant. The only way you’re going to know for sure is by doing a test but if I were you I’d wait it out for at least another week. Most women find out they’re pregnant at about 5-6 weeks, wait till you’re due on and if after a couple of days it doesn’t happen, then try a pregnancy test.

QUESTION:
Did you experience morning sickness during pregnancy and if so what ended up being your baby’s sex?
Do you think that the sex of the baby has anything to do with morning sickness?
I know the sex of the baby is decided by genes and that morning sickness is cause by hormones changing! That being said just curious if people experienced some, none, or worse sickness perhaps linking gender!

• ANSWER:
  I had two boys no morning sickness. When I got morning sickness with this pregnancy I knew it was a girl. I believe everyones different but that different genders affect u differently. The wives tale fits me but may be opposite for others. I think girls have more of a chance of causing morning sickness since they have more estrogen

QUESTION:
Are there any factors correlated with morning sickness in pregnancy?
We’re thinking about trying for our first later this year, and I was just curious whether there are any factors that suggest you’ll have morning sickness or not. For instance, is it correlated with your own mother’s experience? How easily you become queasy in general? Gender of the baby?

Thanks in advance

  No- not that I know of. My mother had two girls and didn’t have morning sickness at all. I think she said she felt a day or two sick (but never threw up) with both my sister and I. My sister has four children and had little to no morning sickness with the first three (two boys and a girl). And with the last child (a boy) she had some, but it went away around the 13 week.

  With my first pregnancy(a girl) I threw up three times a day for the first half of it. Then three times a week for the second half. With this pregnancy (a girl) it has been better, but not that much better. I am almost 32 weeks and still throwing up.

  So I haven’t seen any correlated with family or with gender.

QUESTION:
What causes a women to get morning sickness during pregnancy?
And how come some women get this and others don’t? Like, does it have to do with how much stress your under during or how little rest you get?

• ANSWER:
  Its actually the fact that your body is trying to defend itself against a foreign body.

  The baby at its early stages feeds off the mother like a parasite. After about 3 months the woman’s body accepts the baby as part of the mother and usually the morning sickness stops.

QUESTION:
when did you start feeling pregnancy symptoms? morning sickness etc?
I’m only 5 weeks pregnant with my second baby and I’m not really feeling any symptoms. No tiredness, or morning sickness etc. Just the odd headache.

I’m sure with my first baby I had morning sickness by now (not that I’m wishing for it this time!!). But I can’t remember

When did you first start feeling symptoms and what were they?

• ANSWER:
  I was 5w6d when I found I was pgrenant and I only took a test because I felt ‘funny’. I didn’t start to feel sick or nauseous or even tired until I was about 7wks.

  If this is different to your last pregnancy then maybe you’re having a baby of the opposte sex?? Oooh, exciting!

  Congrats and good luck x

QUESTION:
Is morning sickness(pregnancy) caused because your baby doesn’t like the food or what are the reasons for it?
I’m about 8 weeks in my pregnancy, and have been with morning sickness for the last 2 weeks. I thought it would be fun if on my cell I would have a list of every food that has made me throw up. Well I’ve noticed that 3 times in the last 2 weeks I’ve ate chips: doritos, lays, and fritos and I’ve throw them up! It made me wonder is it cause the baby doesn’t like the food? Or cause its too much for my stomach? My husband was happy saying that good for the baby that he/she makes me throw up chips so that I won’t eat them! Haha! I was just wondering what exactly causes morning sickness or sometimes all day sickness? Thanks!

• ANSWER:
  morning sickness is caused by your body disposing of the excess hormones its producing into your stomach. While it does this continuously – its when you have an empty stomach the problem occurs- its too consentrated for the body to process- so it tries to remove it from the body in the only other way it knows how- by making you throw it up. Thats why you feel sick. Your body is trying to make you get sick to get the stuff out of your stomach.

  It can be controlled in two ways- First dilution= they did a study that showed drinking an 8 oz glass of real orange juice when you first wake up- before you stand up- it reduces the occurrence of morning sickness by half.
  Second- absorption= go pick up good old salteen crackers (salted soda crackers.) Any time you feel even a tiny nauseated – eat 4 crackers. The salt gets the bitter taste out of your mouth and the crackers absorb the offending hormone fluid. Do not drink anything while eating crackers. Write down the exact time you feel sick- you notice it hits at the same time every day- now eat the crackers 15 minutes before the time hits- and you’ll never feel sick again!

QUESTION:
Morning sickness, pregnancy symptoms, but negative test….?
I should start off with the fact that my husband had a vasectomy in April of last year. For three months now my period has been off, late and shorter than usual. I’ve been spotting between periods which I’ve never done. I have had morning sickness for about 3 weeks like I had when I was pregnant with both of my children. I have a 3 year old and a 10 month old. My breasts are enlarged and sore and I’ve been having cravings off and on. I have a headache that won’t quit and I’ve been bloated. I’ve taken a pregnancy test but it turned up negative. Does anyone else know what could be wrong? My last period was the 23rd of December. Thanks in advance for your help.

• ANSWER:
  it does sound like your pregnant i had exactly what you re having with the cravings and everything i took a test and 3 came up negative then i finally took another 1 a month later and found out i was 3 months pregnant

QUESTION:
Is there a natural remedy for morning sickness in pregnancy ? ?
I have tried with ginger ale & biscuits and none seems to work . Initially there was a small percentage of improvement but after couple of days I am facing the same ongoing sickness. Can someone help me please ?

• ANSWER:
  I had really bad morning sickness and i thought i had tried everything until i asked the same question on here and someone told me to try preggie pops and they worked great for me. You can get them at BabiesRUs or at Motherhood Maternity. Wish you the best of luck finding something that works for you i know it can be though.

QUESTION:
At what stage of pregnancy does morning sickness usually start?
Just wondering because I was really lucky and didn’t really have any with my first

• ANSWER:
  some of them usually get it in the first trimester… me too i experienced almost nothing except for getting too hungry often… lol:)

QUESTION:
Pregnancy / Morning Sickness / Too Soon?
I’m wondering if I might be getting morning sickness and I wanted to see what other people think.

I was pregnant once, when I was 18. I started throwing up a lot before the take home tests even came back positive. I went to the Dr after throwing up all over my parent’s house (they thought I was sick) and I found out from a second blood test that I was very early in a pregnancy. I ended up having an abortion, but that is another story.

Today I am feeling very sick to my stomach, and it is taking serious will power not to throw up at work. I’m 26 now, a professional with a great career and can’t leave sick.

I was scheduled to be ovulating on the 4th-8th-ish of this month. My last period ended 9/20. My boyfriend and I have sex almost daily, and we use a condom with spermicide.

Is it possible to be having morning sickness this early? How often/likely is it that a condom would fail when used properly with no visible signs of tears/etc.?

• ANSWER:
  Condoms are extremely effective when used correctly however as I am sure you know not 100%. I started getting sick 3 days before my period was even due but I was far enough to get a pos. on an hpt. It never hurts to check.

  As a side note there is a yucky stomach bug going around so that could be it also. Think of your co-workers and go home if you think you have it. Believe me they don’t want it.

QUESTION:
second pregnancy morning sickness….?
*now i know everyone and every pregnancy is different but..I am currently 5 weeks pregnant. My last pregnancy i was sick before i even found out i was pregnant at 4 weeks. I was sooo sick and then it got really bad starting at week 6 and then lightened up around week 13 but didnt go away completely. With this pregnancy i noticed i felt great up until about 4 days ago when i started to get morning sickness. Does anyone think that it wont be as bad this time? will it get worse? what are your similar experiences..?

• ANSWER:
  It really could go either way. I know a lot of girl who are sick from day one right to the end. For me I was sick from about week 7 peaked at week 11 and after week 16 I haven’t gotten sick again and I’m 24 weeks. This is also my second pregnancy, but it is worse than my first I didn’t get any morning sickness at all.

QUESTION:
TTC/fears of pregnancy/morning sickness questions?
So, for the past three months I have done a complete nutrition detox of my body and I am ready to TTC.I will be TTC with friend (been a dream since I was 10)

My ONLY fear for pregnancy (other than obvious ones like a healthy baby) is morning sickness.I am SCARED to DEATH of vomiting (emetophobic)

I just basically wanted to know how many actually have experienced vomiting during morning sickness.It is said that emets don’t often for the simple fact that we are suppose to fight it back more than other people who would rather just let it go but I was ill with a stomach virus once and there was no way I could fight that off lol.I do prevent myself from vomiting even if I have extreme nausea but I just don’t know how different it would be when I am pregnant.I have researched all to help minimize the morning sickness from keeping food in the stomach to ginger.I have a list of products that are suppose to help from this morning sickness website and I will go to the doctor for anti emetics but I know that all those could fail.Everyone is difference and every pregnancy is different but what I was just wondering how many of you came close to vomiting or did vomit and do you normally have “strong” or “weak” stomachs?

Thanks

• ANSWER:
  my first pregnancy i vomited every day till i was about 4 mths. my second pregnancy was a dream i didnt feel sick for even a second.

  but the third time round, woah have i been sick this time. i ended up in the hospital a couple of times, once just because i was so dehydrated from not holding ANYTHING down. then i threw up so much i burst a blood vessel in my stomach and was bringing up blood. the anti emitics started to work after that and now im 19 weeks and it only comes back if i get too hungry or tired.

QUESTION:
pregnancy & morning sickness please help?
i just found out im pregnant. havent been to the doctors yet but i have been taking prenatal pill with DHA in it. anyways from what ive figured im about 10 weeks and 2 days or so. well my first pregnancy ended at 11 weeks due to miscarriage had to get a D&C ( had severe bleeding and the baby wasnt dropping ) but now like i said im 10 weeks and my morning sickness is going away , the past two days i feel really hungry in the morning when i get up but no sickness. is that normal at 10 weeks for it to be going away? and are some slight cramping with NO bleeding okay? im freaking out but i need some answers id appreciate it.

• ANSWER:
  Morning sickness can sometimes come and go when it pleases! You may just be one of the lucky ones!
  Cramping is 100% normal, and is a GOOD thing! That means your uterus is stretching to make room for that growing little darling of yours.

  Sorry about your loss though, my husband and I had a similar experience.
  Best of luck this time around

QUESTION:
is their anything that would help with morning sickness (pregnancy sickness)?
like i seriously am AFRAID of throwing up, but every god damn morning like 10-20 minutes after i get up i start feeling like omg (horrible!!!) and i try everything to keep it down like breathing slow (which i dont th helps) and i feel like that right now, i have my garbage right beside me on m bed and my fingers are like shakeing so is their any like things i could do to not vomit, if so please name them off

• ANSWER:
  Try ginger pills… they seriously help. I was also seriously sick with “all day” sickness when someone gave me this tip. I was still a little nauseous, but it made such a difference. I went from throwing up three times a day to maybe once every other day.

  By the way… it does pass. The second trimester is much better than the first!

  Feel better.

QUESTION:
Suggestions for coping with severe morning sickness during pregnancy?
My sister-in-law is expecting for the first time. She has severe morning sickness that lasts most of the day. I had a little morning sickness with my first, but nothing like this. I was able to curb most of my morning sickness symptoms with crackers and a little ginger ale or ginger tea but this is not helping with her at all. Does anyone have any other ideas that she can try to ease the nausea and vomiting?

• ANSWER:
  I had horrible morning sickness with all 3 of my children. I found that motion sickness bands helped. They look like wristbands or sweatbands with a little plastic ball on them. You put them on your wrists and supposedly they create a pressure point that helps with your equilibrium and in turn helps with the nausea. They worked especially well when I had to go in the car. You can find these at any supermarket, drugstore, or WalMart. They will be with the motion sickness medicine.

  Also, have your sister eat some crackers before she ever moves from the bed. This would require her to have them close. Have her lay there for awhile before she gets out of the bed. Then throughout the day have her nibble on crackers to curb the acid in her stomach.

  If nothing works, just reassure her that it will all be over soon and that this is truly a great time in her life. Just make sure she doesn’t get dehydated! If she shows signs, take her to the hospital immediately.

QUESTION:
After pregnancy morning sickness?
All through out my pregnancy I experienced no morning sickness, no heartburn and very few food sensitivities or cravings (the only thing I craved was ice cream and the only thing that really bugged me was chocolate). I had my twin girls on December 25th 2008 by Emergency C-Section. Since then I have been feeling extremely nauseous, there is very little I can eat or drink with out vomiting, besides saltines and water. And even too many saltine gives m heart burn. Is this just a ten day long stomach flu, or something more?
I am still taking pain meds, however what I am taking is exactly what I took beore pregnancy for rheumatoid arthritis, mind you in a lower doese

QUESTION:
when does morning sickness start during pregnancy?
If I’m pregnant in my 6th week going on to my 7th with no morning sickness but other pregnancy symptoms like fatigue and change of taste, do i still have a chance of getting sick nausea and throwing up? Or that part would have started already?

• ANSWER:
  For some never, for others around 9/10 weeks, for others still from day one they find out and for others still not until 2nd or 3rd trimester

  There’s no cookie cutter answer here

QUESTION:
Did those who experienced morning sickness in early pregnancy end up with a girl or boy?
Just wanted to see if my mom’s theory is correct about severe morning sickness in early pregnancy results in a girl baby.

• ANSWER:
  Baby number 1 – Hardly any sickness. A healthy baby boy.

  Baby number 2 – So sick I weighed less at 18 weeks then I did pre-pregnancy. I was also hospitalised at 35 weeks and 36 weeks, hooked up to an IV drip and refused leave to go home until I stopped showing ketones in my thrice daily urine samples. The presence of ketones showed that I was breaking down my own body fat, so therefore not digesting enough to feed me and the baby. Another healthy baby boy.

  Baby number 3 – Serious vomiting from around 7 weeks to 13 weeks. I’m now at 16 weeks with sporadic feelings of nausea and vomiting, although I still can’t bear to be around cigarette smoke, the smell of popcorn, and various other odours. I don’t know what I’m having yet, but past experience has taught me that it doesn’t matter.

  Each of my pregnancies has been wildly different. They all have the same father, the first 2 were born in the same month of the year, we had the same home, the same jobs etc. I can’t even say that it’s down to the individual, because I seem to have experienced the whole rainbow of pregnancy symptoms with one baby or another lol.

  On a more serious note, people who have never had pregnancy sickness have absolutely no idea how horrible it is. It is, without doubt, the worst form of sickness I have ever ever EVER had, and it doesn’t go away once you empty your stomach contents either. I hope your sickness goes away soon if you’re having it.

  Good luck with your baby

QUESTION:
morning sickness pregnancy question?
After drinking water because my mouth was dry it came right back up anyway i am 7weeks pregnant and after all of that vomiting (nothing but water might i add) my throat burns and hurts it feels like i cut it or something along with that as i was washing my mouth out there was small amounts of blood with my spit…ive never had this happen be for this is the first real burst of junk ive had since i was a kid so i have no idea what is normal and what isn’t no way of contacting a doctor until 9am please help

sorry i know its in the wrong section but no one will answer me in pregnancy thanks
i have not eatin anything since dinner last night

• ANSWER:
  I had the same problem. when I would wake up in the morning I would be sooo thirsty, and even a sip of water would cause me to throw up. I had horrible morning sickness all day too. my doctor told me to eat a few bites of something every half hour. some dry cereal, granola bars, and cold fruit (when I was thirsty ) worked for me. during the night make sure you keep eating too, I did every time I woke up to pee. I know it’s hard but try not to drink anything when you get up until you eat and let it settle. this really worked for me and I hope it helps you.

QUESTION:
In pregnancy (morning sickness)…?
Does every woman experience morning sickness?

I’m not pregnant or anything but I’m just curious because some women I speak to don’t have cravings, some do…so is this the same situation with morning sickness?
Lizzie, I’m confused…you said “yes” to every woman has it yet then you said you didn’t but your friend did…

Contradiction!

Lol, thanks for the answers, though.

I hope I don’t get it when I fall pregnant if it lasts a few weeks!!!

• ANSWER:
  Not all women have morning sickness. I did with both of my sons but my cousin never did with her 3 daughters. And why they call it morning sickness is beyond me….it happens at all hours!

QUESTION:
nightmare pregnancy morning sickness?
I’ve had morning sickness through the whole thing im 30 weeks now and my morning sickness just started to come back with the same force as it did in my first trimester… it had sorta eased a bit in my second trimester. im worried because i was so sick in my first trimester i lost 20 pounds and i finally gain it back. in the beginning it was so bad even if i drank water or milk in the morning it would just come back up… my doctor finally put me on diclectin(sp?) the last time i gave up trying to keep things down all together but i ate and tried to keep some down for a little while to hopefully get something out of it. i really don’t wanna have to start that again… and it worked for a while but recently its stopped working. has anyone else had morning sickness this bad? what did you do to try and stop it? (and i’ve tried eating something small before getting outta bed.. no dice)

• ANSWER:
  oh sweetheart do i feel for you… i know exactly what you are talking about and nothing helped me. nothing. i tried everything… everything. the diclectin did take the edge off, but i never felt good enough to eat, ever. all i can say is you only have 10 more weeks. if your dr. thinks that the baby is fine, try not to worry about that and as far as your ability to deliver when the time comes, trust that your adrenaline will get you through. believe me, in a few short weeks you will be holding your beautiful little baby and all this awful nausea will be a distant memory.

QUESTION:
Vegan/Vegetarian mums, did you experience morning sickness/pregnancy nausea?
I had horrid pregnancy nausea with my first child to the point that I was hospitalized. I have read that diet before pregnancy plays a role, and those who consume less meat or dairy suffer less nausea. Can any vegan/vegetarian mum ascertain this?
ScProf – I’m not really expecting a miracle cure. Having less MS is a blessings in itself. I was diagnosed with Hyperemesis Gravidarum the last time, I can’t even keep water down. I even woke up in the middle of the night to vomit. Just keeping the sickness to one or two times a day is good enough incentive for me to go vegan

• ANSWER:
  Yes, vegetarian moms are believed to have fewer food aversions during pregnancy. I’m vegetarian and have had only mild morning sickness through my pregnancies. This may be in part due to meat having a stronger odor/taste, while few vegetarian things trigger that same reaction.

  I doubt that you could completely eliminate nausea and morning sickness (since that comes from rising hormone levels and not food aversions), but it probably can’t hurt to take red meat out of your diet and see what happens.

  Good luck!

QUESTION:
Zofran and pregnancy (morning sickness)?
Ah well I couldn’t find what I needed on the webs so I thought I would ask moms out there personally about their experience with Zofran for morning sickness. I get morning sickness real bad with all my pregnancies to the point where I will lose more than 10 lbs and need IV fluids eventually. It gets better for me around the 6th month. BUT they have me on Zofran and for some reason I have gotten sicker. I am throwing up more and feel more exhausted than I did before I took it. Could there be a chance my body is just rejecting it?
I tried to get ahold of the doctor he’s not answering and his nurse couldn’t be more worse. She doesn’t answer either. (I am currently stuck in a small hickville town, only been here a year and the doctors here are horrid, we plan to move back to the city for sure! as soon as we can.)

Has any one else had this problem where the Zofran made it worse?

By the way this is our third child, was never on Zofran before. I am also in the 4th month right now.
Thanks

• ANSWER:
  I don’t know if Zofran could be making it worse. However, I do know that for many people it just doesn’t work. I have a good friend that throws up all during her pregnancies. She has been hospitalized etc. And I know Zofran didn’t work for her. And I have heard many people talk that it made them very tired. So it isn’t just in your head.

  I took it and I think it helped some, but it didn’t completely work for me. When my doctor gave it to me she said “If this doesn’t work there are other medicines we can try” So call your doctor and ask for something else. They should give it to you and if not then insist on it. Take care and I hope you feel better soon.

QUESTION:
pregnancy morning sickness?
i am about 8 weeks pregnant with my second child. i felt perfectly fine up until about a week ago.. i started feeling nauseous. and now im getting sick non stop every day! I am not able to keep anything down including drinks. i had morning sickness with my first. but she mainly just gave me nausea not actually making me get sick to my stomach constantly…. done anyone have any advice on what i can do to keep foods down and make me feel better. its affecting my work and everyday life.. someone pleaseeee help!!

also everyone says morning sickness is a sign of having a girl… someone please tell me differently.

• ANSWER:
  My morning sickness started at 5 weeks and has let up a bit but is still bothering me now at almost 30 weeks! I tried all the natural remedies, ginger ale, sour candies, mints, ice cubes…nothing helped with the continuous nausea or how violently I was being sick. My midwife ended up putting me on diclectin, a prescription anti-nauseant that is completely safe to use during pregnancy. I still felt the nausea, but wasn’t sick nearly as much.

  I’m not a huge advocate for medication, especially during pregnancy, but I really didn’t have any other choice. I was breaking all the blood vessels in my face and neck being sick and was risking serious dehydration.

  And I can’t tell you differently from my experience….she’s a girl!

QUESTION:
Pregnancy morning sickness…?
I am a few days late for my period and have been having slight cramps and lower back aches as well as alot of thin discharge this
Morning a felt like i was going to throw up for about an hour before i did a little bit and still feel like i might but i dont feel really sick or anything the last 2 tests i took were on monday and both were negative since i dont know if im pregnant yet could the throwing up be in my head? Do you usually get more sick with morning sickness or is whats going on sound about right?

• ANSWER:

QUESTION:
How many of you had morning sickness with first pregnancy?
Just trying to see if morning sickness is more common that not in first pregnancies, also, does anyone have any idea why morning sickness actually occurs? Thanks

• ANSWER:
  I had morning sickness throughout the first 6 months of my first pregnancy. It was pretty bad. I was nauseous quite a bit. I threw up, but not that often. I am now on my second pregnancy (19 wks) and still get nauseous but (thank goodness) have only thrown up once! And sorry to say, I am not sure why, exactly, we get it.
  I do have to add a comment here, though. I think that perhaps more women who have had morning sickness are going to answer this question than those who have not – possibly skewing your poll. If you haven’t experienced morning sickness, you might not even “click” on this question because it doesn’t relate to you. Just trying to account for any possible inaccuracies in your data search.

QUESTION:
If you got morning sickness during your first pregnancy did you get morning sickness during your second?
pregnancy? I had bad “morning” sickness during my first pregnancy. It started around week 4 and lasted until about month 6. But I haven’t had it that bad during this pregnancy. Was your morning sickness better, worse or the same with your second pregnancy.

• ANSWER:
  my morning sickness was unbearable with my first pregnancy. (girl) i didnt believe it could get any worse. untill i got pregnant again (boy) its a miracle im still alive lol

QUESTION:
Has anyone here experienced morning sickness with one pregnancy and not with another?
I am curious about the experiences of the parents here. For those of you who have been pregnant more than once, did you experience morning sickness symptoms with none, all, or some of your pregnancies?

If you also remember when your symptoms began, please feel free to share.

Thank you.

• ANSWER:
  With my first baby I started getting sick at around 7 weeks. I was sick for the first 5 months. I threw up several times a day.

  With my second child, 5 years later I didn’t suffer a day of sickness.

QUESTION:
how many women are affected by morning sickness during pregnancy??
ok so help with these questions would be appreciated:

1) how common is it?
2) is it hereditary?
3) when during the pregnancy does it occur?
4) how many days/ weeks or months does it last for?

like how many pregnant women are physically vomit?

• ANSWER:
  it’s pretty common, obviously – most have at least some and about 1/3 have vomiting. it becomes less common as a woman gets older. It often continues to the end of the third trimester – 14th or 16th week.

  http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003119.htm

  I don’t believe it is hereditary – that’s what my doctor told me – but I don’t have a reference for that.

  I had kids at 38 & 35 and never had more than a touch of nausea, my sister had a baby at 37 and was tremendously nauseous and threw up for the first 15 weeks…

Is vomiting normal without any morning sickness during your pregnancy?
I’m 7 weeks pregnant (first baby) and have had some morning sickness here and there. I just threw up without any symptoms-is this common during pregnancy? I always thought you felt morning sickness along with vomiting.
Thanks! Everything I’ve read has said you should feel other symptoms resulting in vomiting. I felt nothing and then I was running to the toilet. I guess I should just be prepared at any moment from now on?!!

• ANSWER:
  like the other woman said, vomiting is morning sickness. You don’t have to feel weak, lightheaded and nauseous beforehand, certain smells can trigger it and you just have to run. I didn’t get nauseous some of the times I could just feel something was going to come up, I had morning sickness all the way through my second pregnancy.

QUESTION:
If i suffer with IBS and bad periods will that give me bad morning sickness in pregnancy?
just wondering if its connected, Thanks

• ANSWER:
  I’m am currently pregnant and suffer with IBS and bad periods. I haven’t seen any correlation to the two. Just watch what you eat sometimes things that didn’t trigger your IBS before will during pregnancy. To avoid morning sickness take your prenatels after dinner right before bedtime and keep some saltines by your bedside, it will pass.

QUESTION:
Is it normal to have morning sickness with first pregnancy but none at all with the second/?
I was really sick for my first trimester with my son. Now, i am 9 weeks preegant and have had no morning sickness at all(knock on wood!) Anyone else experience the same? Should I be worried? On other sites some say no morning sickness is a sign of an unhealthy pregnancy and some say its perfectly normal. I cant help but wonder. My 1st doc appt isnt for 3 weeks

• ANSWER:
  I had gotten sick everyday with my daughter including the day i was in labor. than i got preg again with my son and only got sick once. same with this one i am pregnant with now….nothing. It could be that your body can handle more now with your second than it did with your first.

QUESTION:
Morning sickness?
So I woke up today at 330,(i work over night) very nauseated and I have diarrhea. I cant stop gagging. Anyway. Is diarrhea a symptom of morning sickness or pregnancy. I didnt have it with my other 2 pregnancies. I dont even know if i am preggo, just weird stuff has been happening.

• ANSWER:
  Actually YES it is. My friend found out she was pregnant she had diarrhea and was vomiting. The diarrhea was from her introverted cervix. That’s what the DR. told her..and she had it for the first trimester along with nausea. She’s fine now and she has had her baby last yr. good luck and maybe in 2 weeks you should get a blood test just to see if you are or not.

QUESTION:
Is Phenergan for morning sickness safe for pregnancy?
I am 6 weeks pregnant, but I have severe morning sickness.

QUESTION:
No Morning Sickness with first pregnancy?
I am 7 weeks along in my first pregancy, and am feeling no morning sickness. I’ve had other symptoms, but no sickness. Im actually feeling the best I’ve ever felt! I seem to have alot of energy (most of the time) It just concerns me b/c supposubly morning sickness is much healthier (thats what i’ve heard). What could be some possible culprits? Should I be worried at all, or just enjoy?

• ANSWER:
  Let’s see with my two pregnancies my morning sickness didn’t start until i was about 8 weeks pregnant. With the first one i gained all together 25 lbs. (i learned my lesson). With the second one I lost 15 lbs. during the first 4 months then gained it back so i ended up thinner than when i got pregnant. I had two healthy baby boys and believe me both pregnancies were different. Enjoy your pregnancy and no matter if your sick or not your baby will be fine. I think i had more energy with my second one because i would go for walks in the afternoon and kept myself busy. Enjoy!

QUESTION:
Pregnancy & Morning Sickness?
Hi.. I have another pregnancy-related problems which I am sure many others have.
I’m in my first trimester and I find it hard to eat a well-balanced diet. Whatever that is good comes back out. Even supplements are hard to keep down after food.
I tried fruits, vege with rice or soup, even bread but still a no-no.
So, i only eat foods that appeal to me like french fries and burgers. I really feel nauseated the whole day and without food in stomach only makes it worst. I also feel really bloated.

Any suggestions on what I could do?

• ANSWER:
  Talk to your doctor about switching to flinstone vitamins instead of your prenatal for now. Also, common things like ginger and Vitiam B help. It you really can’t deal with it there is a med that your Doctor can give you. Also, they make ginger suckers. I know they sell them at motherhood. you will get past this stage soon!

QUESTION:
Is it too soon to feel pregnancy/morning sickness symptoms?
I ovulated Sunday and we BD Thursday through Sunday, everyday. This is our first month of trying so I’m not like super nervous or anxious about “is this it” I just feel lime crap! I have been really tired and have had no motivation all week, starting Monday. The last two days ive noticed some very minor very slight twinges of cramping that only last a couple seconds. Starting today I’ve had a headache and have been getting nauseous. You know that “I think I just threw up in my mouth a little” thing that sometimes happens? That’s happened twice today. I don’t have sore breasts or swollen feet or hands and I can’t tell if I have increase urination. But this is my 4th pregnancy, if it’s pregnancy at all, and I’ve never showed those signs until much later on. But with my other three pregnancies, I’ve never been “tracking and trying” and never been so in tune with my body. Is it too soon to actually be pregnant and feeling symptoms? If so, what am I feung? My period isn’t due until June 4th

• ANSWER:

QUESTION:
When did your pregnancy symptoms (morning sickness, tiredness) kick in?
Saturday I was floating along with no problem. Today? I eat lunch and feel soo sick 15mins later, I started to nod out at work during nap time for the kids, and one of the 1 year olds accidently hit my boob and I thought I was going to crawl up in the fetal position LOL! Any other super fun stuff I should prepair for?

• ANSWER:
  I was right at 6 weeks when the tiredness and nausea kicked in, and then in a couple of weeks, I started getting indigestion really badly. After I would eat, I would feel like I had a ball of food just sitting about halfway down my esophagus. Luckily, that didn’t last but maybe a month, and it was only really bad for about 2 weeks. Everything went away by 13 weeks. The indigestion has just started coming back recently, and I’m 25 weeks as of yesterday. So far, though, it’s still just very occasional (only a couple of times), and hasn’t been nearly as bad as at the beginning. I’m sure it’ll come back as the baby gets bigger though. LOL Good luck with everything!

QUESTION:
If you got really bad morning sickness with one pregnancy, is it possible to NOT get sick with the next?
I got really bad morning sickness with #1, is it a given that I’ll get it again or is it possible that I won’t get it all?

• ANSWER:
  Every pregnancy is different. I had a friend who was horribly sick all through her first one. The second one, she breezed through. With me, my first was a breeze and now my second has been more difficult.

QUESTION:
Has anyone had morning sickness with one pregnancy but not another one?
I am panicking a bit, because my first pregnancy I was really sick early on for at least 10 weeks. This one I feel a little nauseous, but nothing bad at all. I’m worried.

• ANSWER:
  That is exactly how my 2 pregnancies went. The first sick for 12 wks and the second no nausea. They do say that every pregnancy is different. I also had a girl and then a boy. Even though they say the sex has nothing to do with how you feel, you just never know. Good luck

QUESTION:
When did you first get morning sickness? How many weeks were you?
I am just coming up to 6weeks pregnant on Sunday and cant believe it happened so fast, It took us just 4 months to conceive. Only I remember when I was pregnant with my son I was as sick as a dog morning, noon and night. So far I haven’t had any sickness, I just feel dizzy spells, I am taking vitamin supplements for pregnant women. And I don’t feel pregnant, I have to keep taking pregnancy tests to make sure.

Can you remember how many weeks you were, when you first began to actually be sick.
Thanks ladies x

• ANSWER:
  First of all, you don’t have to be sick!! Not all women have “morning” sickness, so don’t accept it as fact. Usually, if you’re expecting to be sick, you greatly increases your chances of actually getting sick!

  To specifically answer your question, I was a little nauseous starting around 7 weeks, but never actually puked, just had an upset stomach. In lasted maybe 2 weeks.

  Think positively and good luck!

QUESTION:
Did happen to someone to have morning sickness in first pregnancy the second one no?

• ANSWER:

QUESTION:
How many of you had morning sickness with first pregnancy?
Just trying to see if morning sickness is more common that not in first pregnancies, also, does anyone have any idea why morning sickness actually occurs? Thanks

• ANSWER:
  I had morning sickness throughout the first 6 months of my first pregnancy. It was pretty bad. I was nauseous quite a bit. I threw up, but not that often. I am now on my second pregnancy (19 wks) and still get nauseous but (thank goodness) have only thrown up once! And sorry to say, I am not sure why, exactly, we get it.
  I do have to add a comment here, though. I think that perhaps more women who have had morning sickness are going to answer this question than those who have not – possibly skewing your poll. If you haven’t experienced morning sickness, you might not even “click” on this question because it doesn’t relate to you. Just trying to account for any possible inaccuracies in your data search.

QUESTION:
When did you first get nausea & morning sickness?
I am 6.5 weeks along and am starting to get queasy. I am curious: when in your pregnancy did you first get morning sickness and at what point did it stop? Thank you!

• ANSWER:
  I got it at 6 weeks and 1 day, and it ended at 32 weeks. I had to be admitted to hospital 6 times during my pregnancy as I was spewing up 24 hours a day and couldn’t keep anything down at all.
  If you get acid reflux, have a glass of milk before you lie down at night. For the nausea, try ginger, acupuncture, and dry food like toast, crackers etc. Also, the one thing that is a total fail safe is marijuana, well they give it to cancer patients! I don’t know how you feel about that but seriously, it works like magic. The only problem is it makes you tired. I hate the stuff, but I will give it the credit that it really does take away all nausea and vomiting.

  Usually the “morning” sickness lasts until 14 weeks. And it doesn’t have anything to do with hCG as I kept getting negative pregnancy tests until I was almost due for my second period (i.e- I had very low hCG levels) but I was pregnant at that time and I had the morning sickness too.

  Try to keep your blood sugar levels up as that can cause nausea too. Try to eat as soon as you can in the morning to head it off. Work out what triggers you off and avoid those things (usually certain smells etc.)

  Good Luck, and I’m sure it’ll wear off within the first trimester.

QUESTION:
When do you FIRST feel morning sickness?
If you’re pregnant, at what week is the earliest you can get morning sickness?

• ANSWER:
  I never got morning sickness, some mornings when I woke up I’d feel really dizzy and a tad of nausea as if i had ate too much sweets and I felt that at 3 months pregnant (13 weeks).

  I was only sick one through my pregnancy, probably about 5/6 months, due to eating a chinese curry…baby didn’t like that!! He made me throw the whole lot up…and the rice!

  Oh and I had cravings for cheese, pickled onions, boiled eggs with toast!! I guess savoury is for boys!

QUESTION:
Did you take Ondansetron for morning sickness during your first trimester?
My first ob/gyn appointment isn’t for a few weeks, but my primary physician gave me a prescription for morning sickness due to my inability to keep anything down. SHe said to try not to take it if possible, but I have been in bed for a week straight and can’t even function. I’m wondering what an ob/gyn might think of this medicine and what the risks to the baby are…
Please help.

• ANSWER:
  I had to take it through my whole pregnancy due to a condition called hyperemesis, which is basically a fancy way of describing a pregnant woman who can’t stop throwing up. It sounds like that might be what you have as well. You will be very lucky to get it, because it is crazy expensive. It’s about 700 for a months worth of pills. They were my life saver though and my daughter is almost 4 months and completely healthy! I hope you feel better soon!

QUESTION:
Was morning sickness your first symptom?
I’ve been feeling nauseous for the past 4 days… but my period isn’t due until Friday. I heard that many women experience morning sickness 2 weeks after conception; is it possible for that to be the only symptom at the moment? My breasts aren’t swollen or tender…oh but I have been feeling slight cramping for the past few days along with nausea. My main question is: has anyone felt morning sickness before any of the other symptoms like swollen breasts, etc.?
Did anyone have morning sickness before their missed period, and then the other symptoms kick in after their missed period?

• ANSWER:
  no. swollen breasts come first.. like week 4 or 5.. morning sickness is week 6 and after. but i never had that.

QUESTION:
If you got morning sickness with your first did you also with your 2nd?
I got terrible morning sickness the 1st 3 months of my pregnancy. I think it had a little to do with my diet at that time, we didn’t have a lot of money so we were eating a lot of crap like ramen noodles.
If you got morning sickness with your 1st did you also with your second?
I have a stomach bug today that’s just making me remember how I found out I was pregnant in the first place.

• ANSWER:
  I have had 4 babies in the last 5 years, and each pregnancy was different. With my son I had the worst nausea for the entire 39 weeks. With each of my girls I had mild-moderate morning sickness only during the first trimester.

  Every pregnancy can be very different, but usually there will be some similarities throughout. You know your own body so trust yourself, and take a pregnancy test if it’ll make you feel better.

QUESTION:
What were the first signs your morning sickness was going away?
I’m 10 weeks pregnant and have suffered from morning sickness 24/7 for the last month. However, yesterday I went 4 whole hours without even feeling nauseous! Is that a sign I’m reaching the end of the tunnel?

• ANSWER:
  It could be, but be aware it could still take awhile.
  I knew I was tapering off when I didn’t vomit first thing in the morning like usual. It would hold off to lunch time then eventually later and later. Then it was every other day and then it was just once in awhile. I didn’t start tapering off until around 16 weeks, but every woman is different. I hope you are beginning this process, because I know how much it stinks. To me it was the worst part of pregnancy. I am 38 weeks now and in a lot of pain, but I would still take the pain over vomiting.
  Congrats on the baby.

QUESTION:
Did u have morning sickness with your first pregnancy? what about the next baby?
My daughter is 6 months old and im thinking about getting pregnant again in a few more months..maybe 3-6 months..but anyways im sooooo afraid to be pregnant again cus i had severe hyperemesis )which is bad morning sickness) when i was pregnant with her, so now im so afraid of trying for another baby! if u had bad morning sickness with your first baby, how did it go with the 2nd one? thanks !!
oh one other thing did u have a boy or girl with your sickness if u had any?

• ANSWER:
  I had hyperemesis with my first pregnancy. I lost 25 lbs. I was sick every day & took nausea medicine daily. He was born healthy. I had no intentions of having anymore. I didn’t want to be that sick again. But I ended up pregnant just before my oldest turned 1. My second pregnancy was much worse. My hyperemesis was so bad that I had to have a PICC line inserted in my arm. I took Zofran every 4 hours & administered IV fluids twice a day from 10 weeks until he was born prematurely at 34 weeks. My doctors have advised me not to get pregnant again because the chances of the baby surviving would be much smaller. They told me that TRUE hyperemesis will get worse with every pregnancy – just morning sickness is another thing.

  Just be prepared if you decide to do it again. I had no idea that it vould get that bad & was totally unprepared. I love both of my boys but I would never go through it again.

QUESTION:

• ANSWER:
  25ml of b6 vitamin three times a day. It takes about a week to start to jsut barely feel the effects, but after a few weeks it really does take it away.

  Drink water, and eat what little you can. Crackers, water. Avoid a prenatal until you can keep food down, they only make it worse.

QUESTION:
Did any of you get morning sickness for the first time at 7 weeks?

• ANSWER:

QUESTION:
What are the first signs of pregnancy before the morning sickness?
I’m trying to get pregnant and I was just wondering what some of the first signs are before actually getting morning sickness.
Another thing I just thought of… When should I stop smoking. I’ve been through a lot of hard things lately and the smoking helps…..

• ANSWER:
  Sore breasts and exhaustion.

  *You should stop smoking immediately. If you are successful before the pregnancy, then you will gifting your child with a clean nurturing womb. Nicotine causes blood vessel constriction. In the unborn, this can be very damaging and can result in low birth weight, and other issues from the lack of oxygen. I commend you on your foresight and I hope that you find a program that works. Ask your doctor for assistance, there are new prescriptions that can make it easier for you to lay down the smokes.

QUESTION:

QUESTION:
If i got morning sickness with my first child will i get it with my second?
When i was pregnant with my first child i thought i had got away with no morning sickness, unfortunatly it got me around the end of my fist trimester and i got it bad!! was sick all day for about 6 weeks! I am 6 weeks pregnant now and although i feel a little green in the mornings, it hasn’t hit yet. Has anyone had morninh sickness with one pregnancy and not another?? i know its all part of being pregnant but i fear it more than giving birth!

• ANSWER:
  No, every pregnancy can be different. Some say it depends on the gender of the baby and how the hormones interact between mom and baby. In my family it seems…the boys make you beautiful and the girls make you sick, tired and bloated. One thing IS for sure…your sense of smell and taste will be enhanced. You can smell like a hound dog when you’re pregnant . Certain smells and/or foods can trigger sickness. Try eating saltines when you’re feeling nausea…the salt may help to calm the sensation.

QUESTION:
When does morning sickness peak during the first trimester?
I’m six weeks pregnant and I’ve noticed my sickness is definitely worst in the morning. It comes and goes during the day but it only gets bad if I haven’t eaten anything. When did your morning sickness peak? I haven’t had it really bad…which also makes me nervous that something could be wrong. Whats your sickness like?

QUESTION:
Did you have morning sickness with your first child but not with your second?
I hear that every pregnancy is different. With my first son I was violently ill from about 5-16 weeks. I am crossing my fingers that when I conceive again I will not have the same experience. Just curious about your experiences and how unique each pregnancy is. Thanks for sharing!

• ANSWER:
  Yes it is different each time. The main cause of morning sickness is a combination of issues related to the chemical changes your body is going through. Mix a pinch of nutmeg powder with a table spoon of gooseberry juice, and take it thrice a day. Sip little by little ginger juice mixed with honey before you get out of bed.

QUESTION:
It is possible for the same woman to have morning sickness with the first 2 pregnancies but none with the 3rd?
I am 5 weeks pregnant with our third, and no sickness yet! It seemed to start about 4 weeks with my other two.
I am 5 weeks along with my 3rd, but morning sickness had already started at 4 weeks with my other two. I know every pregnancy is different, but since my body is the same, shouldn’t I be having morning sickness?

• ANSWER:
  Hormone levels are different with every pregnancy wchich can cause you to be more or less sick each time. My first I had no sickness, I wasn’t very tired, she will be 1 yr old on Sunday so it hasn’t been long, but now I am 17 1/2 weeks pregnant and had the most severe morning sickness I lost weight for the first 2 OB appointments because I was so sick, I have been extreemly tired so much that they checked my thyroid, for enemia and low iron, all of which checked out to be perfect. This pregnancy is totally the opposit of my last and it’s only been a year.
  Everything about my body is the same, I was almost the exact same weight starting both pregnancies, same activity levels, same job, same diet everything, just different pregnancies!
  Good luck to you, cross your fingers that you won’t get morning sickness!!
  Congrats!

QUESTION:
How many of you have had morning sickness after the first trimester?
I am at 12 weeks now and I never had it,but I am wondering if I will get it still at some point.

• ANSWER:
  morning sickness usually starts at 6 weeks and ends around 16 weeks. i had “evening sickness” lol. i was always sick around dinner time, luckily it only lasted a few weeks and it was pretty early in my pregnancy(around 6 weeks). i’ve never heard of anyone starting morning sickness after the first trimester but i suppose its possible but most likely not.. good thing for you!

QUESTION:
morning sickness/first trimester?
is it possible to have morning sickness off and on through out your first trimester. i had it the first month and a half but these last couple of days i haven’t felt it much. i still get it a little at night but during the day i feel normal…with the exception of being tired at random times during the day. is this normal?

• ANSWER:
  Oh yeah that is totally normal. Some people never even have a touch of morning sickness. So be glad yours has let up for the time being. I had it very mild but the tiredness was overwhelming, that was my BIGGEST clue i was pregnant. I was never a nap person but being pregnant has changed that. Enjoy your pregnancy but realize it is every changing and everyone is different! So relax and be grateful your not hugging that porcelain bowl today!

QUESTION:
anyone have bad morning sickness that went away after the first trimester?
i am almost 9 weeks pregnant and have very bad morning sickness. it is bad in the morning, subsides for a fe hours in the afternoon, and then comes back by 4pm. i can’t go to work, i can barely eat, and i have to go to bed by 7 cuz it gets so bad. i have tried every “remedy” there is. my question is, is there anyone who experienced this and did it go away towards the end of your first trimester?

• ANSWER:
  Yes, it went away for me towards the end of the 2nd trimester. I’m 14 weeks and I still throw up from time to time but the morning sickness has gone away for the most part.

QUESTION:
Can you have morning sickness all day when you first become pregnant?
Can you feel sick to your stomache besides in the morning in the first few weeks of your pregnancy.? and get sick when you smell things like tuna.?

• ANSWER:
  Yep, morning sickness should just be called pregnancy sickness, because you can get it at any time. During the first trimester I feel sick all day long, and it sucks. Smells can definitely set it off, as your sense of smell becomes much more acute when you’re pregnant.

QUESTION:
First Time Pregnancy ??: Did you experience morning sickness or overall sickness during your first pregnancy?
I am having absolutely no morning sickness/or/all day sickness. I’m curious to know if it’s just because it’s my first pregnancy.

Did anyone else experience this during their first pregnancy? Is this like just a 1st time pregnancy thing or does it depend on the person? Finally, what gender baby did you wind up having (for fun)?

Thanks!

• ANSWER:
  Everyone is so different. Some people feel sick in the evening. Some are sick all day every day. So are sick for just the first trimester. Some for the whole pregnancy. And some poor few even still have it when breastfeeding!

  Personally, I had nausea but no vomiting. Mainly in the first trimester. It was only when I didnt eat enough/on time. I could never ever let myself go hungry or it was the end for me! So I always had a bag of snacks with me (fruit, crackers, cheese, nuts and raisins etc)

  I had a little boy on the 30/09/2009

QUESTION:
My wife is pregnant,should I worry when the morning sickness stop before the first 3 months?
my wife is two month pregnant, and she’s been going through all the morning sickness.Now that she doesn’t feel any of those simptoms, she thinks that something is wrong..Should she worry? or is this normal?

• ANSWER:
  No, Morning sickness varies with every person/pregnancy.

  I’m not a ‘sicky’ person and with 2 pregnancies was only physically sick twice with each. Some people are sick passed the 3 months, some all the way through.

  Unless she was throwing up none stop and wasn’t able to eat etc, I don’t think there’d be cause for concern… Maybe if you’re still concerned you could call nhs24 or speak to a midwife/dr to set your mind at ease.

QUESTION:
Anyone have bad morning sickness with their first but NOT with your second?
I am almost 5 weeks and so far feel great. With my daughter I was sick immediately. I was wondering if anyone else didn’t get sick with their second one?

I still expect it to happen but hope not, lol.

• ANSWER:
  I had relatively late onset morning sickness with my first (from about 8 weeks to 16).

  With my second one, I’m now 15 weeks along and haven’t had any at all. I’ve felt a little “crappy” from time to time, but nothing nearly as bad as last time. And thank goodness, because morning sickness was bad enough when it was just me – I can’t imagine dealing with morning sickness and a toddler!

  Hope you end up without it this time too!

QUESTION:
severe morning sickness first time, what about 2nd.?
I am 7 weeks pregnant and just nauseous, no vomiting…yet. With my daughter I had hyperemisis gravidarum (severe morning sickness) I threw up every day until my 3rd trimester and then it was every other day or so. I heard you get morning sickness worse with girls and this time I feel like I’m having a boy. My question is I want to know if anyone had really bad morning sickness with their first and then got to experience what most women do, morning sickness ending around the 2nd trimester or earlier with their second. If you didn’t have severe morning sickness with your first I still would like to know how it was with your subsequent children. thankyou.

• ANSWER:
  I had pretty bad morning sickness with all 3 of my boys…especially with my 3rd one..It felt like I had the flu..=) All of my morning sickness with them ended by my second trimester. But I’m pregnant again and I’ve had hardly ANY morning sickness…this has been a pretty easy pregnancy for me so far.

QUESTION:
What usually comes first? Morning sickness or positive preg test?
Sooooo….. Since I got off birth control about 4 months ago I have not gotten a period yet, I was on birth control for 2 years and got my period every single month, but always had irregular periods before that. Now my husband and I are TTC, I have been feeling kinda nauseous lately, but not enough for me to throw up or anything, so could that be a sign of possible morning sickness? I have already taken a preg test and it came out negative. But still, I have been feeling like this for the past few days now.. Could it all be in my head?

• ANSWER:
  it could be… sometimes you start to convince yourself that ur feeling symptoms of pregnancy for hope (or in my case fear) that u may be pregnant… you will have to wait and see if any tests come out positive… but you never know- it may just be that you’re actually going to become a mummy!!! good luck!! ♥

QUESTION:
Did you have morning sickness when you first find out you were pregnant?
How many weeks were you?

• ANSWER:
  i had HORRIBLE morning sickness my 6th and 7th week. I am just now over it. Hopefully! No vomiting just constant all day nausea.

QUESTION:
When did your morning sickness begin to improve?
I am almost 11 weeks pregnant and experiencing morning (“all day”) sickness. It was awful between 8 and 10 weeks. I had it every single day. For the past few days, it has been slowly improving. I am now just having short moments of sickness off and on instead of constant nausea. I was just wondering when other people began to feel some improvement.

• ANSWER:
  Mine went away about a week before my second trimester started.

QUESTION:
When exactly did your morning sickness begin and end?
I’m almost 9 weeks and I’ve had morning sickness since the day I turned 7 weeks pregnant. I just want to see when it started and ended for everyone!
It’s not so much that I am throwing up, it’s just that I have extreme nausea at times. Like, I’ll be running to the bathroom all day because I think I’m about to toss my cookies and then nothing happens. I kind of just wish it would though!

• ANSWER:
  I never really had morning sickness. I would get a metallic taste in my mouth and I’d feel queasy, but I have only thrown up twice since being pregnant … and it wasn’t severe.

QUESTION:
How long after sex (if pregnant) does morning sickness begin?
Let’s say you had sex, and now you’re pregnant, how long before you get morning sickness?

• ANSWER:
  I think it was around a week after my period was due, so about three weeks after conceiving. Then the dreaded sickness began. Morning, noon and night sickness that lasted for 4 months, very depressing, but when it stopped….suddenly….just like that, I felt HEALTHY.

QUESTION:
When did your morning sickness begin?
I am about 6 1/2 weeks pregnant and have experienced a sore chest but no morning sickness. I was wondering when it began and if it has anything to do with carrying a boy. My mother is convinced it is worse if you are having a boy because of the hormones your body is not used to (she had two boys and two girls so this was the case from her expereince). Does anyone agree? Should I have it by now if I am having a little boy or will it kick in later? I am curious, I have no preference as far as my child’s gender, I was just wondering what others thought!

• ANSWER:
  First let me say, congrats! Not everyone gets morning sickness at all. I have had 4, 2 boys and 2 girls. Needless to say they were all VERY different. 1st (girl) had very little sickness in the morning, never vomited. 2nd (girl) could barely keep water down, let alone food, and was losing weight like crazy for the first trimester. 3rd (boy) a little vomiting around 6 weeks, non after. 4th (boy) could only eat starchy foods before noon or up it would go, entire pregnancy.

  So, no one is the same. I would see your doctor about the sore chest though. Good luck and God bless!

QUESTION:
How soon does morning sickness begin?
We are trying to get pregnant, and I don’t want to get my hopes up, but for the last 3 days in the morning I’ve been sick to my stomach, if I eat or if I don’t eat. I’m still about 10 days away from when my period should start.

• ANSWER:
  It certainly wouldn’t be 10 days before your period is due. You wuoldn’t have even implanted yet…You cannot get pregnancy symptoms until you’ve implanted. You most likely ovulated a few days ago. Morning sickness starts at different times for everyone. Some women never get it. I didn’t start getting morning sickness until my 6th week.

QUESTION:
How soon can morning sickness begin?
I’ve heard it can begin as soon as a day after conception, but i’m not sure.

• ANSWER:
  Technically, yes you can start experiencing morning sickness at conception because that is when your body starts being flooded with the hormones that cause nausea. I have a friend who swears she was sick from day one with her daughter… while her son caused no nausea at all. Not all women experience morning sickness though, generally they say if you haven’t had any by like eight to twelve weeks you probably won’t. Then there are some women who have it all through out their pregnancy. I had all day sickness until half way through my second trimester… I was constantly on the verge of being sick for months and it sucked. I got a short reprieve but I’m thirty-three weeks along now and starting to get some of that sudden nausea coming back.

  Top 10 Morning Sickness Tips
  From Robin Elise Weiss, LCCE,
  Your Guide to Pregnancy / Birth.

  Being pregnant means that about 75% of women will feel queasy or actually vomit at some point in their pregnancy, usually very early. While there isn’t one magic cure, here are some of the top tips to help ease your stomach.
  1) Take two crackers…Two crackers before your head leaves the pillow is old but wise advice.2) Think SmallSmaller frequent meals can also help keep an ailing belly at bay.
  3) Avoidance
  Avoid foods and smells that seem to trigger nausea. Sometimes this will be nearly every food or every smell.
  4) Blood Sugar
  Eat something high in protein before going to bed. Helps your blood sugar stay more level.
  5) A Cookie a Day…
  Ginger, teas, cookies, even the spice can be helpful in preventing nausea.
  6) Ice, Ice, Baby
  Have sips of ice water as the urge to purge strikes. Many women say that this helps them keep meals down as well.
  7) Pressure
  Acupressure bands can be worn like bracelets and can curb nausea while you wear them. But be forewarned as one mom says, stand next to a bucket when you take them off! Great Breath
  Peppermint, either smelling it in aromatherapy form or sipping the tea can help curb nausea. It’s also known to help with sagging energy levels.
  9) Relax
  Take a deep breath. It might be mind over matter sometimes. This sounds hokey but actually worked for me several times when I absolutely couldn’t afford to be ill. It didn’t curb the nausea but kept my lunch in my body.
  10) Comfort Food
  Eat what you can, if it stays down it is probably a good thing. Slowly add more foods to your diet as possible.

  *********************************************************************
  Despite its name, morning sickness—nausea and vomiting that is often one of the first symptoms of pregnancy—can happen at any time of the day. Up to 90 percent of pregnant women experience this less-than-pleasant side effect, yet scientists are only beginning to understand why running to the bathroom and saltines are a rite-of-passage for moms-to-be.
  Now, new research has shed some light onto morning sickness, and its roots lie in evolution.
  Researchers from the University of Liverpool suggest that morning sickness may have developed over time to protect pregnant women from potentially dangerous food or from eating too much unhealthy food.
  To test the theory, Dr. Craig Roberts and colleagues looked at the rates of morning sickness in different regions of the world and the typical diet of the population in that region. Ultimately, not only was “high overall food intake correlated with pregnancy sickness, but also the amount of certain types of food predicted the incidence of pregnancy sickness,” he said.

  In other words, it’s not just the amount of food you eat, but the type of food that seems to influence the degree of your morning sickness.
  To further look at this phenomenon, Roberts then compared only those women from Europe and North America and pinpointed the types of foods that seem to trigger the symptoms of morning sickness: sugars, alcohol and meat. Additionally, women who ate high amounts of cereal-based products tended to have lower-than-average rates of nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.
  The researchers theorize that women’s bodies have slowly developed an aversion to sugar, alcohol and meat because all of these foods contain high levels of toxins that could be potentially dangerous to a mother and her child. Cereals, on the other hand, tend to contain a very low level of toxins, so they could possibly be safer for a woman to eat. Remember, however, that these toxins may not pose the same hazard now that they did in the days of ancient man.
  “While there may be no particular harm in eating, say, meat, now that we have refrigeration and ‘best before’ dates,” said Roberts,”our bodies may be pre-programmed by evolution to avoid these particular foodstuffs in the first trimester.”
  If there is a particular food that seems to make your morning sickness that much worse, it may be acceptable to avoid it, but be sure to consult with your doctor before changing your diet. That way, you can be sure that you and your baby are still getting all of the vitamins and nutrients you need.

QUESTION:
Can morning sickness begin at 9 weeks?
I have had a normal pregnancy up until now. Sleepiness and peeing more. Well yesterday I started getting really sick. I am not throwing up but I am nauseous! I just am wondering if anyone else started this late.

Thanks!

• ANSWER:
  Morning sickness can occur at any time during the first
  trimester. I didn’t get morning sickness until about the 9th week of pregnancy as well.

QUESTION:
Is it normal to begin morning sickness at 12wks?
never had morning sickness previous, also alot of stretching ligament pains in hips normal?

• ANSWER:
  The one sure thing about pregnancy is that is can be so different for each woman. You can experience morning sickness all through your pregnancy, only in the beginning few weeks,towards the end, and some lucky women never experience it at all. I wouldn’t worry too much about the morning sickness. Just make sure that you aren’t eating something new, because it could be completely unrelated to the pregnancy. Make sure you take time for yourself to relax too, that will ease up on the morning sickness. At this time soda crackers can be your best friend.

  As far as the pain in your hips, that’s very common. Your hips are starting to spread to make a nice cozy atmosphere for your baby to spend the rest of your pregnancy in. It can be uncomfortable, but it shouldn’t last too long. If the pain sticks to your right side, it could be sciatica. This means the baby is putting pressure on a nerve. Keep taking moments in the day to sit down and allow your body to rest. Also, be sure to maintain your fluid intake.

  It will all start to get comfortable to you soon. Your body will adjust and then you can enjoy your pregnancy. If you can swing it, try to book yourself a prenatal massage… They are WONDERFUL!!!

  Good luck to you and your baby!!!

QUESTION:
How long after intercourse does it commonly take for morning sickness to begin affecting a woman?
For those of you that have been down that road, I was wondering how long it takes after the ‘impregnating episode’ of sex before a woman first experiences “morning sickness.”

• ANSWER:
  Is no common length of time. Some amazingly within a few days of conception if they are extremely sensitive to HCG. Others never get it. I think it seem sto be more common at abotu 4-6 weeks to START though.

QUESTION:
How far through a pregnancy does morning sickness begin?
Like, as soon as your pregnant?

A week after conception?

A month…?

• ANSWER:
  it all depends on the woman. every pregnancy is different. you may get morning sickness and then again you may not. it’s not a bad thing if you don’t get it either. it just means you are lucky.

QUESTION:
When did your morning sickness begin to slow down?
I am a very nervous, newly pregnant woman. I started getting sick at week five, was sick weeks 6-7, and I am starting to feel better now that I have hit eight weeks. Is this too early? I still have an acidic stomach, but no more vomiting, and I am worried that the decrease in nausea means there might be a problem.

• ANSWER:
  My morning sickness started at 10 weeks and stopped 12 weeks exactly. I had a relatively short period so far. Women vary and when they start or stop is different. Generally it stops about the second trimester but some people have morning sickness all through some stop sooner than others. Also, certain changes in diet can affect morning sickness as well. Have you eaten less spicy or greasy foods? Do you drink sprite or ginger ale? If not consider yourself lucky. But, if you feel worried, it wouldn’t hurt to give your doctor a call and ask. Believe me, I think they know my name by heart . I’m not as worried now and they were willing to answer my questions with no problems. It might give you a little bit of relief. I would not worry to much. If you have cramping and bleeding please go to the doctor as soon as you can. Congrats on your pregnancy.

QUESTION:
When does morning sickness begin?

QUESTION:
when does morning sickness typically begin?
This is my first baby and I hate throwing up…I haven’t started getting sick yet but I was wondering when it starts…I know every one is diffrent but I just want to get some sort of idea.

• ANSWER:
  Morning sickness usually begins around the 5th week. Some women never experience morning sickness. It then starts to taper off around 12 wks. My big thing with all three of my pregnancies was I would gag on my toothbrush when I was brushing my teeth which would cause me to get sick. A little tip if this happens to you, brush your teeth as soon as you wake up before you eat any thing. If you do get morning sickness there are things you can do to help. You usually get it because you are not eating enough protein. So eat a little bit every couple of hours, but make sure it is high in protein. Cheese and crackers with some fruit or apples and peanut butter. Eggs are also a really good source of protein. But make sure you have fruit with it so you are getting a good balance of sugars and protein. Also keep a jar of peanut butter and a spoon in the bathroom so when you wake up in the middle of the night to pee you can eat a spoonful of peanut butter. That will keep your protein levels high during the night so when you wake up in the morning your protein levels are not at rock bottom. There are also stomach soothing foods you can eat but they really are different for each person. What helps one woman can have another in the bathroom throwing up for an hour so you really have to find what works for you. Just make sure you get enough protein. And drink plenty of water. You don’t want to get dehydrated. Also if you like hot tea, Traditional Medicinals makes a pregnancy tea that is fantastic.

QUESTION:
what week can morning sickness begin?

• ANSWER:

QUESTION:
Morning Sickness?
At what point during a pregnancy is it possible for Morning sickness to begin?

I had my last period 6-7 weeks ago, not too long after it hubby and i got back to trying for a bub.

After about a week or 2 i noticed a lil blood when going to the bathroom and thought i was going to have my period again but it was really light and went away after 2-3 days.

In the past 2-3 weeks i’ve been feeling somewhat crook, cant handle alot of sights and smells that usually dont bother me and have been gagging (nearly vomiting) at various things, then this morning i began vomiting over nothing…i had nothing but water in my stomach so didnt bring up much, but does it sound like it could be morning sickness??

I will do a test at some point today, we’ve been trying for around 8months now and so far no luck so i assumed we’d be unlucky still until i started feeling so terrible.

• ANSWER:
  It could be a sign that you are pregnant some women start getting symptoms really early, I didnt start getting morning sickness until I was about 8-9 weeks pregnant. My morning sickness was like that too because I tend not to eat first thing in the morning I was just wretching and bringing up very little. Hopefully you are pregnant I will keep my fingers crossed for you xx

QUESTION:
When did you begin to experience morning sickness?
And when did it subside? (How many weeks)
I am 5 weeks pregnant with twins, and don’t experience any sort of morning sickness. I hope that it stays that way; but I am just wondering if it’s just around the corner, waiting for when I’m further along?

• ANSWER:
  5 weeks is still early and you can definately still get it.
  Alot of people never get it but the people that do usually have it anyjere from 3wks-15wks or more.
  As you progress into your pregnancy it becomes less and less likely to come on.

  But unfortunately,some people have it the whole 9 months! Yuck!

  Good luck and congrats’

QUESTION:
I think I might be pregnant, when does morning sickness start?
I think I might be pregnant but I am not sure, I tried searching up all the symptoms but they aren’t very accurate, when does morning sickness begin during pregnancy?

• ANSWER:
  mine started a week before my period was due and last (thankfully its was mild) up until the second trimester where it got much worse before it went away (lost over 15lbs in during those weeks). I also started getting tired around week 6, enough for people to notice (especially my boss at the time).
  Then it came back again in the third trimester for 2-3 weeks, but I think that was mostly due to heartburn.
  Sour candies and ginger helps. If you have any other questions, especially if you are pregnant and don’t want to ask something that may be private to you on here you are more then welcomed to email me any time! Karma5000@yahoo.com , I check it religiously lol. I’ve kept myself more then informed during my pregnancy and have had my share of bumps along the way (even my doctor says he has to watch what he says to me because hes afraid I’ll be correcting him!)

QUESTION:
when do you begin to have morning sickness in a pregnancy?
i still dont know if im pregnant yet but i cooked some not so good pancakes this morning then 10mins later i was throwing up…could i really be pregnant?

• ANSWER:
  Not everyone has morning sickness. I didn’t in my first pregnancy, but had it for the first 3 months of my second one-day and night.

  Unless you added something to the mix that is perishable you probably did not get sick from pancakes though. I usually just add water so I don’t see how that would cause a reaction. (Unless there is some other way to make pancakes. I don’t know I’m a horrible cook!)

  I would get a pregnancy test to be sure.

QUESTION:
When do most women begin to experience morning sickness start?
I am 4 weeks and 4 days pregnant. My memory could be failing me but with my daughter I remember getting sick right away.

• ANSWER:
  Everyone is different. It is possible to start then. I started around probably 5 or 6 weeks. It wasn’t bad though until I reached my 2nd trimester and then it got really horrible. But everyone is different.

QUESTION:
when does morning sickness begin during pregnancy?

• ANSWER:
  Usually during the first trimester. It can also occur later in the pregnancy or last the entire pregnancy. Not as common, but also a possiblity.

QUESTION:
How soon after conception could you begin to have morning sickness?
Just wondering if what I am feeling is normal? Thanks!

• ANSWER:
  Personally both times i’ve been prego that is how I’ve found out I was pregnant. I started morning sickness about 4 weeks both times as it continued through the day i had each child. It can be a horible feeling, especially if you have other kids to get up with or to be to work early in the morning. Good luck! If it is really bad ask your doc they can give you medication to help with the nasia.

QUESTION:
When did you begin experiencing morning sickness & breast soreness?
When during the beginning of your pregnancy did you experience these two things? A couple days after conception? A month later? Not at all?

• ANSWER:
  The breast soreness happened almost before I knew I was pregnant, in fact that was the first clue I had. The morning sickness was only once in a while and I think it started fairly early maybe about 4-6 weeks or so. Mostly I just felt queasy and as long as I had something in my stomach I was OK. I only really lost it 2 or 3 times when someone was smoking.

QUESTION:
When does most morning sickness begin?

• ANSWER:
  It has been different in all 3 of my pregnancies.

  With my son (1st born): I got morning sickness around 8 weeks but it was never too bad… Just felt ick all the time, but it went away when I ate.

  With my 2nd born – a girl: It was VERY bad and it started around 7 to 7 1/2 weeks. I was extremely sick (dry heaving – couldn’t hold anything down, etc) it lasted until i was out of my 1st trimester.

  Now I am 6 weeks pregnant with my 3rd child and it has already started to kick in. I feel nausious throughout the day especiallyv when I am hungry AND also if I over eat. Weird huh?

  So:
  Baby1 : 8 Weeks
  Baby 2: 7 – 7 1/2 Weeks
  Baby 3: 6 weeks

QUESTION:
How early can morning sickness begin?
Alright, I know that this is an age old question that everyone has asked a million times over. And I know that a lot of people are going to tell me “No, you can’t have it this early.” But, unlike a lot of girls, I have a few extra factors that I have to weigh in.

Here’s my story:

I had unprotected sex four days ago. That was Saturday, April 4, 2009. Tuesday morning I woke up with a horrible headache and awful stomach pains. I felt like I wanted to throw up but I couldn’t bring myself to do it, but at the same time I wanted to eat but refused to just knowing that food would make me vomit.

I know that it’s very improbably to have morning sickness after 3 days. It takes the sperm up to 3 days to fertilize the egg.

However, this is when those other factors come in:

I was diagnosed with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis at the age of 12.

http://hopkins-gi.nts.jhu.edu/pages/latin/templates/index.cfm?pg=disease1&organ=6&disease=31&lang_id=1

(I’m including this link because the doctor that performed my surgery used to work for that hospital. You can research it more on your own, if you wish.)

I had my entire large intestine removed and a “J-Pouch” put in. (See “Therapy” section in link.)

I was told several things about living with FAP that are not included in that link by my Gastronologist at Children’s Medical Center in Dallas.

For instance, hormones work differently with my body. It’s like their in hyperspeed or something.

One of the reasons I never got on birth control was because it is a hormone and there are no studies being made as to what effects it has on patients with FAP.

I’ve looked it up several times and I can’t come up with anything. So, I was hoping somebody here could help me out.

Is it possible for me to have morning sickness 4 days after unprotected sex with my disease?

I don’t know. Maybe the studies have changed since I was younger, but if you find anything, could you please just let me know? It’d be very helpful.

Thank you!

• ANSWER:
  I know this may seem naive, but really… anything is possible! I was only 2 weeks pregnant back in July 2008 when I started urinating -constantly- and lots of cramping… and my doctor was sure it was just a UTI (which I *knew* it wasn’t, because I had had one before) so I was given a pregnancy test and obviously tested negative since there wasn’t enough hCG yet, and the UTI test came back negative as well; but who can really say you aren’t getting morning sickness already if infact you are pregnant? Seriously, every woman is so different with their pregnancy and medical research still has so much to uncover that right now they are only able to skim all the possibilities women have with their individual pregnancies. Although the books are helpful, sometimes you will find symptoms that no one else has had or is very rare…

  Obviously, you’ll know if it was morning sickness if in 3-4 weeks your period doesn’t arrive and you test positive on a pregnancy test (I suggest clear blue digital)… really, a woman’s intuition and knowing herself is the best consultant as to how you’re feeling… I just had this weird knowing feeling when I was pregnant even though for the following 3 weeks tests told me I wasn’t. Now, I’m 40 weeks pregnant and about to pop!

  Sorry I don’t have any strong evidence for you medically, but that’s just my own personal experience with getting early symptoms that most women (the frequent urination) usually don’t get until weeks after they find out they’re pregnant.

  Regardless, good luck!!

QUESTION:
How early in a pregnancy should morning sickness be expected to begin?
i know it is different for different people but on average?

• ANSWER:
  With my daughter, it started around 12-14 weeks. And with the one I am pregnant with, it started before I even TOOK a pregnancy test. Everyones different. And if you don’t have morning sickness yet… enjoy it. Because it sure is HELL. HAHA

QUESTION:
how soon will morning sickness start?
my fiance and i just moved in together. we usually use a condom during sex but sometimes we start without one and put one on towards the end. i’ve been feeling very nauseous lately and i’m scared i might be pregnant. how soon will morning sickness begin?

• ANSWER:

QUESTION:
How long after implantation does morning sickness begin?
I know that morning sickness doesn’t typically start until you are 6 weeks or so along, but I have been feeling very nauseous in the morning and throughout the day. We have been trying to get pregnant for 7 months now with no luck. My period has been pretty wonky, but I think it is expected to start any day now. Could I be having morning sickness this early, or is it just wishful thinking? It’s been going on for almost a week already. I haven’t vomitted, but wish I could. I had morning sickness like this with my first and second. Nauseous constantly, but never vomitting. It never started until a couple months into the pregnancy. What to you think???

• ANSWER:
  consider the reason behind morning sickness. it’s due to the fact that a womans hormones are changing, stress, and other factors I can’t think of right now. lol. some women have morning sickness right away. others don’t. the only sure way for you to tell is a pregnancy test. good luck! and hopefully it’s more than just wishful thinking!

QUESTION:
How early did morning sickness begin for you?
I have been extremely fatigued for the past 3 days. Needing sleep, and almost nodding off at work. Today I got other symptoms that lead me to believe I am pregnant. Today I started suffering nausea so bad, I almost vomited. There’s a slight sense of heartburn too, and a mild headache that hasn’t gone away for hours.

I have my doubts since I have heard that morning sickness starts at around 2 weeks, but it’s been only about 1 week for me. Is it possible
to start it earlier? Am only about a day late with my period, so not sure still.

• ANSWER:

QUESTION:
How far along into a pregnancy do you begin to get morning sickness?

• ANSWER:
  I experienced the dreaded morning sickness almost the day after conception. Some however, never feel morning sickness and some start feeling it around 4 to 6 weeks of pregnancy and it can last up till the time you give birth. Generally though, it only lasts a couple of months. And rarely is morning sickness just in the morning. Some have it all day and some have it in the evenings. In my day, they had a morning sickness pill, which the drug industries has taken off the market due to long term side effects on the babies. One of these side effects was premature balding in males. This pill worked wonderful! Now they have all these rituals, like eat saltine crackers, before you get up or drink a little ginger-ale and so on and so on. None of those things worked for me. But if you run across something that helps, then stick to it.

QUESTION:
At what point in your pregnancy did you begin to get morning sickness?

QUESTION:
How soon did you begin to have morning sickness?
I’m worried because I’m about 85% positive that I am preggo and I have ALL the symptoms; the thing is, I get nauseous, but I never throw up… is this normal?

QUESTION:
I am researching for my book. Any help with morning sickness?
Okay, after three weeks of having sex with her boyfriend, this girl starts throwing up. (morning sickness). Like are you nauseas ALL the time? Or just certain parts of the day? Can you be nauseas one minute and feel fine the next, or does the nausea slowly fade? I need all the information on this, because my fans on the website I’m posting on are getting restless and demanding… I actually received a couple death threats lol. So, therefore I need ALL the information on morning sickness, including the questions I asked above.
Thank you!

• ANSWER:
  The worst morning sickness I had was with my first pregnancy. I would just get sick out of the blue and there were all different kinds of triggers. Mostly, it was smells: foods (even ones that I normally loved), walking in a bathroom too soon after someone else had been in there, gasoline, etc. If someone talked about anything even remotely gross I would throw up, whereas before I’d had a very strong stomach and could hear anything in vivid detail and it wouldn’t bother me. The worst was hearing someone else throw up. It would immediately send me into vomiting mode. Anything fried or remotely greasy or made with tomato sauce also made me sick. I’m done now-this is not a good memory lane to walk down LOL.

QUESTION:
Any ladies morning sickness START after week 9?
Just trying to get a little more information and input. Just wondering if any of you had morning sickness START after week 9? I don’t know if I actually have morning (all day) sickness all of a sudden at week 9, or if I really have a flu bug…..Some odors have bothered me from the beginning and I have avoid some food because they “gross me ” out, but I have not had waves of naseau or vomitted while pregnant. So just trying to determine if it’s “late onset” morning sickness or the flu…Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

• ANSWER:
  Ironically, my morning sickness began on the exact day I turned 9 weeks. I was absolutely fine until then – I thought I was going to be one of the lucky ones who never had any complaints – and literally on the ride home from my doctor’s appt, it hit all at once and we had to pull over so I could puke. From that day until I was about 16 weeks, EVERYTHING smelled bad, everything tasted bad, I was intensely nauseous and I puked up everything. There were days I was so sick I couldn’t even get out of bed. It was awful!

  It’s not late onset morning sickness, starting at week 9 is very, very normal and actually the most probable week to start getting sick, and it usually ends when the first trimester is over. I know it’s miserable, but it’s a good sign because it means your hormones are going way up and your body is accepting the pregnancy. For me it took a couple of weeks longer to really feel like myself again.

QUESTION:
Question about a morning sickness remedy?
Hi, I’ve been reading about the morning sickness remedy of combining Unisom (doxylamine) and Vitamin B6 but I can’t seem to get information on the dosage. Have any of you ladies tried this remedy, and if so, how did you take it?

I need specifics as far as amounts and also at what times of the day to take each, and if they are taken together at the same time. I hope this works for me. I’ve heard it is a Class A remedy and therefore very safe.

Nothing else I have tried works – ginger, crackers…you name it I tried it.
Lol Delta….I have three other children already – you’re right! But my morning sickness is terrible – it’s 24/7 for the first five months – I need relief or everything is going to fall apart here!

• ANSWER:
  I had really bad morning sickness all day the entire time i was pregnant with my 2nd child and my doc gave me Zofran (by script) as well. It works wonders for that nasty morning sickness. Just ask your doc about it rather than trying to do anything yourself and not knowing the dosages. Good luck and congrats on the baby! HUGS!!!!

QUESTION:
When did you start getting morning sickness? I’m 5wks, 5days, but don’t really feel nauseous…?
I know I should count my blessings that I’m not feeling sick, but I’ve read that women who experience morning sickness generally have higher chances of avoiding miscarriage (even though many women who don’t get sick obviously go on to have very healthy babies, too). In any case, I would (strangely) feel comforted if I were feeling nauseous.

Therefore, I’m just wondering when those of you who have had morning sickness actually started to get it. From the beginning? During 5th week? 6th week? Afterwards?

Thanks for your information…

• ANSWER:
  8-9 weeks it kicked in for me; and I was the same, thinking “I’m doing pretty well not to get it yet”, and also got a bit worried, I guess not “feeling” pregnant.
  A small percentage of women dont get morning sickness at all!

QUESTION:
What does morning sickness feel like?
My LMP was oct 2, i got a BFP last nov 4th. My first ultrasound will be this friday, nov. 14. Is it too early to feel light-headed, feel like throwing up (but its not so bad)?? I feel like all my food is just in my chest. Any information will help pls!

• ANSWER:
  Hi! My morning sickness was different with both kids. I did get it both times, and I think with them it started between 6-8 weeks. It didn’t really matter what time of day I got it either. It would come and go…the urge to vomit. Kind of like feeling motion sick without the motion part. Sometimes I got it after taking my horse-size prenatal vitamins, so I suspect that may have been some of it. I ended up switching to different vitamins, as I am usually pretty sensitive to them. I almost always felt better afterward, even if it only lasted an hour. For my second child, I took a prescription to help the baby implant, and that was some type of hormone. I was horribly sick while taking that. I tried to counterbalance the nausea with an over the counter med, Emetrol, which was disgusting and further grossed me out. I was later put on Zofran and that helped a lot. Once I quit taking the hormone, I was fine.
  I noticed that even things such as smells would set off my morning sickness. Frequently I just felt awful, but didn’t actually vomit. For me this only lasted about 2 months in both pregnancies.
  Good news is that the morning sickness is considered a really good sign in pregnancy, that your body is making the hormones it needs for everything to “stick”.
  Best wishes for ya!!!

QUESTION:
Zophran for morning sickness?
My doctor prescribed Zophran for morning sickness, since I was getting dehydrated. I was a little hesitant about taking it, but it has worked wonders. Has anyone else taken this drug for morning sickness? It says to take it 2-3 times daily and not to miss a dose, even if you feel well. Does anyone know why you can’t take it only when you feel bad? I looked for information online, and I was planning on calling my doctor tomorrow if I couldn’t find anything. I don’t like the idea of taking meds continuously, and not being able to stop them if I feel well one day. I know that it is usually prescribed to cancer patients, so I didn’t know if it could be used differently for morning sickness. Anyone had any experience with this?

• ANSWER:
  Zofran is safe in pregnancy and often times the only thing that works for morning sickness. As for taking it around the clock this is probably to keep the nausea at bay because if you become severely nauseated and start vomitting you may not be able to keep down the pills and it will take more of the medication to help the nausea.
  In cancer patients they use extremely high doses of Zofran and in pregnancy it is a much smaller dose.
  Also try sea-bands which are for motion sickness and you wear them on your wrists, completely chemical free, they work on pressure points that help with nausea. I bought these on my cruise to Alaska and it was a difference between night and day for nausea and I actually had a good time. It can help with morning sickness as well and is worth a try as they are inexpensive (Less than ).

QUESTION:
Morning sickness advice please?
how early in your pregnancy do you get morning sickness? what helps with that?

any good information is welcome! thanks everyone

• ANSWER:
  With both my pregnancies I got morning sickness at about 5-6 weeks. I found that I had to get maxolon from the Doctor to be able to do normal day to day things, unless I was spending the day in bed then I wouldn’t take anything.

  Other things that helped were never having an empty stomach and lifesaver lollies, drinking ice cold water.

  Hope that helps a little!

QUESTION:
Going on 12 weeks, when will my morning sickness go away.?
My midwife said it should start tapering off at week 12 and be completely gone by 14-16 weeks, but I keep getting contradictory information on the web?

Does anyone know how common morning sickness past the first trimester really is? I am very anxious, because if it doesn’t go away soon, I am really going to have to consider quitting my job before I get FIRED for bad performance.

• ANSWER:
  A medical professional should never tell you that “it should start tapering off at week 12 and be completely gone by 14-16 weeks…”

  Every woman is different, every pgcy is different. What a woman experiences with her first pgcy won’t necessarily be the same as the second, third… fifth.

  I had all day sickness when pg with both of my children. It lasted for a few months with both and came back later on in pgcy. It was more severe with my daughter, I had hyperemesis gravadarum, which is the most severe type of “all day” sickness. I wasn’t able to look at a glass of water without throwing up. This went on for me for the first 5 months.

  What you are experiencing is very common, sorry to say. If you get to the point of not being able to hold ANYTHING down, foods/liquids, then your midwife needs to take action. There are anti-nausea meds available.
  I was in the ER many times for IV fluids, and when pg with my daughter, I ended up needing a PICC line to have iv therapy at home.
  I wish you all the best.

QUESTION:
Your morning sickness…When & How?
When did you begin having morning sickness? Before you found out you were pg? A few weeks after? How did you feel and what all happened? Also, how soon do you get sick and when does implantation bleeding occur? Please explain in detain such as weeks before or after your missed period. Any other information is helpful and will help you receive 10 pts. Thanks.

• ANSWER:
  I began having morning sickness when I was about four weeks pregnant. I just knew I was pregnant..b/c I felt soo sick and bloated.
  My breasts where soo sore and hurt so much.

  My implatation bleeding happened around the third to fourth week, I had very little spotting, almost like brown color blood for one day and not much, so at that moment i realized i may be pregnant.

  Now I am about seven weeks pregnant and my morning sickness it not as bad,some days i feel good and others I feel like i am seasick. It comes back once i nwhile, but does not harm me that much.

QUESTION:
Morning Sickness? (Please see additional details.)?
My wife is pregnant with our first child and is miserable from “morning sickness” do you have any advice on what helps to overcome this discomfort associated with pregnancy? We have searched the internet and found very little helpful information. (Types of food, medication, etc…?) In addition, such options like Tums only provide short relief.

Thanks for taking the time to assist us with this matter.

• ANSWER:
  My biggest morning sickness troubles came from smells and tastes. Eliminate anything that bothers her from the house, i.e. garlic, fish, garbage, whatever makes her feel sick (and make sure everything is CLEAN!). Use aromas to soothe the nausea, like candles, rooms sprays, but nothing too overpowering like air fresheners.

  Make sure she eats something, anything, for breakfast. Even crackers.

  Ginger tea, peppermint tea, or whatever tea she enjoys will soothe the stomach and provide good smells. I drank peppermint tea and ate lots of candied ginger. Healthy eating always helps too. Not sure what trimester she’s in, but my sickness abated at 9 weeks, and was gone completely at 14 weeks.

  For some reason the smell/tatse that disgusted me most when I was pregnant was bergamot! I couldn’t drink Earl Grey tea for a couple of years afterward…

QUESTION:
Had a termination last year and had terrible morning sickness prior.. am at 9 wks now and going to continue…
But have had no morning sickness (unless my partner sprays deodyrant around me… Do you think this means that the sex is different this time around? Has anyone had bad morning sickness with one sex and not the other?.. And why do they only give you the information on how developed the baby is in the early stages of you are going to continue full term? In some ways if I knew what I knew now etc about the developement of baby it may have changed the decision regarding termination.( but there were other influences to this as well and the desicion had to be this at the time)… As always in hindsight! (delighted about this pregnancy)

• ANSWER:
  Every pregnancy is different. You are lucky you are not sick this time around. I was sick throughout my entire pregnancy 12 years ago and only gained 4 pounds of water. Needless to say I don’t have good pregnancies at all. I am pregnant again and going to be having this baby on Wednesday the 11th. Not feeling well at all. I never do but hopefully you will be unlike me and feel well throughout the entire thing.

  Congrats to you, mommy. I am sure your baby thanks you for chosing life.

QUESTION:
NOT PREGNANT- What is morning sickness?
I’ve been trying to find information about that feeling you get in the morning not nausea and not morning sickness due to pregnancy, but that feeling you get in your throat as though you just brushed the back of your tongue. I know plenty of people who know what I mean when I say I can’t stomach breakfast in the morning because you just don’t have an appetite when you wake up.

2 QUESTIONS:

1. What is that? Vitamin deficiency? IDK.
2. Is there something I can do to have an appetite in the morning?

I’m sure the answer is on the web somewhere, I just can’t find it because everyone is obsessed with babies and figuring out what it means to throw up in the morning. It’s because the condom broke.

• ANSWER:

QUESTION:
Help. “Morning” sickness after first trimester. What’s causing it?
My friend is almost 19 weeks pregnant and she’s still getting “morning” sickness. I say “morning” because it happens anytime during the day, it isn’t restricted to the morning. She was told it was only for the first three months, but that’s clearly not the case. She’ll be nauseous just because or she’ll eat something like soup and it will make her nauseous. She’s still throwing up and it’s really getting to her because she’s hungry and can’t keep anything down. So, does anyone know why she’s still getting sick or further information? She doesn’t have a doctor’s appointment for another few days.

• ANSWER:
  That is normal. I had morning sickness that would last all day for the first and second trimester and my whole pregnancy from the beginning to the end I could not eat meat. I couldn’t even eat tuna fish. I lived on little debbie’s and orange soda.

  So, what is causing her to still have morning sickness is her pregnancy!

  It is all normal… some women don’t get even the slightest hint of morning sickness (lucky them, huh?), and then there are those who get it for the first trimester and then tapers off durning early second trimester. Some get it so bad they lose weight in the first trimester (I lost 10 pounds). Most of us do get morning sickness all day, or any time of day.

  Its all normal!

QUESTION:
For those who have added an island to their kitchen:?
1) Who did you go through to build the island?
2) How large is it?
3) How much did it cost?
4) Was it worth it (to you)?

I’m doing some priliminary research, and it’s tough to find ANY information will fighting with a squirming 17 month old and an evil dose of morning sickness!

ANY information would be greatly appreciated, and yes. We are planning on visiting with a kitchen designer next week.
*WHILE fighting a squirming 17 month old. Not WILL. Gah.

• ANSWER:
  1. I did it myself
  2.3ftx8ft
  3.00. that included the range top
  4.yes
  your question is kind of open since you don’t say how large is your kitchen, or what do you want in the island. Will it have a sink, range, or just a counter top?

QUESTION:
Who else has had Morning sickness all through pregnancy? I have a few questions, Or share your story!?
First and foremost: I am on Zofran for it and I take it 2 times a day, i just feel yucky all day with random times of vomiting.

These are mainly for 3rd trimester (1st trimester sucked and 2nd trimester was a breeze and now 3rd trimester is the worst of all)

1.) Can Braxton Hicks contractions make your Morning sickness worse? ( I feel like mine do)..
2.) Did drinking fluids (including water) make you sick?
3.) Did it help to eat on a schedule ( like at the same times everyday)?

any other information would help

or once again if you would rather share a morning sickness story that would be cool too!!!!

• ANSWER:
  i have been so sick my entire pregnancy, i would even throw up water. im 17weeks tomorrow, my dr finally suggested unisom and 25mg of b6 vitamin, and i have been doing that since monday night, and oh my gosh! the difference, im able to eat, and drink, i have a few spells of dry heaves, but nothing like i had been having….its a whole lot better….they call it the pregnancy cokctail…..i have a more energy and everything!

QUESTION:
Could this be morning sickness?
My husband and I have been trying to have a baby since he got back from Iraq 9 months ago. I got pregnant for the first time in June, but ended up losing the baby in July at 6 weeks. My mom has a genetic disorder called a balanced translocated chromosome. After testing, we found out I have the same thing. Basically two of our chromosomes swapped information. This leads to miscarriages due to the fact that some babies will have severe chromosome problems. The miscarraige is just a way of my body telling me they were not healthy. My last miscarriage was a blighted ovum, where my sac was empty-nothing formed inside it. I had all the pregnancy syptoms: sore breasts, backache, headaches, fatigue. My hormones were in the correct range when they did my bloodwork. I did not get morning sickness. My mom, who had 8 miscarriages, said she did not get morning sickness with any of her miscarriages, however she did with us healthy ones. (There’s three of us). I am now 4 weeks 5 days pregnant and have felt a bit different in this pregnancy. I have just felt off-normal lately. Not sick, but not normal. Yesterday I started feeling sick mid-afternoon. I thought it was something I ate, laid down to nap, and woke up feeling better. After my dinner, though, I felt sick again. I felt vomit in the back of my throat, yet never threw up. My mom got very sick with morning sickness, however she gags and throws up at the slightest things. It takes a LOT for me to throw up. Usually I just feel so sick yet never throw up. I felt it again this morning after eating. I don’t really have nausea, just that feeling like I might throw up. Could this be morning sickness? I’m overall pretty calm, I know there’s nothing I can do if its a miscarriage, but I am really hoping this pregnancy works out. So if anyone experienced morning sickness like this, please let me know! Thank you!
Thank you for the answers and the sympathy. It was very, very hard. But when we least expected it again, I got pregnant! Trying to keep realistic though, just in case. I have been to my PCM and had bloodwork done. We are with Tricare, which is the military health insurance. The way it works you have to get a referral from your Primary Care Manager to an OB. Then my OB gave me a referral to a Fetal & Maternal Medicine Specialist. Now because this is a new pregnancy I have to get a whole new referral. It takes about two weeks for the whole process. I had lost the baby before my referral even went through! So this time they are putting in an emergency referral. Should be able to see an OB this week. Hoping he’ll do an ultrasound..that should help figure out if its the same thing or not.

• ANSWER:
  you don’t have to actually vomit for it to be morning sickness.You can just feel sick to your stomach.Have you been to a doctor.Good Luck to you.

QUESTION:
My 1st OB appointment yesterday – what my doctor said about morning sickness…?
I had my 1st appointment yesterday and my doctor gave some good advice on morning sickness. One thing that I’ve read on here quite a bit is taking B12 supplements. Also she said to try taking 1/2 of a Unisom sleeping pill before bed. She said the sleep aid in the pill is actually prescribed for nausea. Hmm, I think I might try that! This morning sickness is awful! I just thought I would share that bit of information with all of you. But of course, ok it with your doctor first.
Oh I forgot to say this too – my doctor also told me to eat many small meals throughout the day. She said that morning sickness gets worse when you have an empty stomach.

• ANSWER:
  Yep – vitamin B12 works wonders for nausea! My OB’s office even offers shots of the stuff if you’re too sick to keep the pill down! My OB’s office has also suggested Ginger Root supplements or drinking ginger tea / eating ginger cookies, etc. But, the B12 has by far helped me the most!

  Congrats!

QUESTION:
Did the Morning Sickness drug Bendectin/Debendox cause birth defects ?
Did Bendectin/Debendox cause birth defects ?
Although removed from production by Merrell Dow (just in case it was problematic) does anyone know if there is any proof that this drug , prescribed pre 1980′s for morning sickness during pregnancy caused birth malformations ?

In Australia a Dr William McBride (who was struck off the Dr’s registry for scientific fraud) brought to light deformities caused by Thalidomide and was investigating Bendectin/Debendox when he was de registered.

I gather he felt there was a campaign against him by the drug companies (understandably) but after his case there wasn’t much in the media but strangely the drug was removed/withdrawn from sale.

Any Information, cases, lobby groups or articles suspicious of the connection between Bendectin/Debendox and birth defects would be most welcome.

I have heard it said by Medical practitioners that they think there is a strong likelihood of a connection but they wouldn’t stand up in court to say that.

• ANSWER:
  Whether this specific drug has been proved to be linked to birth defects I couldn’t say but currently there is NO drug on the market for morning sickness as a result of the problems found with drugs in the past, obviously the best well known being thalidomide.

QUESTION:
Can I start Maternity Leave Early due to Severe Morning Sickness?
I work at a second hand store and have been there for almost 10 months. I am only 9 1/2 weeks pregnant but I am experiencing SEVERE morning sickness that has made me call into work a few times because I couldn’t get out of bed or hold down the vomitting! Also today I had my first panic attack in 3 years because of stress at work and almost blacked out…at WORK! I really cannot continue to work as I feel I am not physically able to and mentally I am just way too stressed out. I also have a 4 year old that I take care of and a new puppy as well as a 3 bedroom house so I have a lot of responsibility.
I want to take my pregnancy leave early but in Ontario, you can only start 17 weeks before your due date which for me would be August 6th, 2011. I can’t do this another 3 months.
My doctor told me I could start my pregnancy leave at any time but my employer is saying I can’t and I have to wait until August unless I have a severe medical condition. I don’t know but I think throwing up every day and constant nausea and almost blacking out at work is a medical condition. My doctor wouldn’t write me a sick note which is why I can’t take sick leave and just go on that until Maternity leave would start. So I have to choose one of these options:
1. Start my pregnancy leave now, if possible…which is my best choice becase I am not planning on going back to the same job anyways so it’s not like I’d have to come back to work within a year.
2. Quit my job and collect maternity leave 8 weeks before my due date…which is law in Ontario.
These are my only two optioins unless anyone has any other ideas? I cannot continue working nor do I want to. It’s too much stress on me and my baby not to mention my boyfriend and son are having to deal with my depression and stress from work. Any moms in the similar situation.
Please only answer if you actually know any legal information that could help me or been in the same situation. Thanks. Next day I work is Monday, want to have this figured out by then.

• ANSWER:
  I was in a similar situation. I worked in an unsafe environment (under the best of circumstances let alone while pregnant). I tried on numerous occasions to have them modify my workload to accommodate my needs, which they never did. I ended up taking short-term disability because I had a low lying placenta, which by itself is not a concern, but is when you aren’t safe at work.

  This article is the policy on discrimination because of pregnancy and breastfeeding from the Ontario Human Rights tribunal is very helpful http://www.ohrc.on.ca/en/resources/Policies/PolicyPregBreastfeedEN/pdf

  especially pg 17 which talks about a duty to accommodate the special needs of a pregnant worker.

  Since they don’t seem to be doing that and you are having panic attacks (the morning sickness is hard because it can be argued that it could get better, although mine never did!) you may be able to get a doctors recommendation (even if its a different doctor) to write that you need to be off and get you some form of disability until you claim your mat leave.

  Hope this helps a little bit! Good luck!!!

QUESTION:
Once a woman gets pregnant, how soon could she experience “morning sickness”?
Will she feel sick just one week after becoming pregnant? A few weeks? One Day?

Would love to know about some web sites that have information on this. Thanks in advance!
I’ve been so sick to my stomach lately and feel like I’m going to throw up. It really reminds me of when I had morning sickness with my first child. However, I took a pregnancy test today, and it was negative. I wonder what else it could be?

• ANSWER:
  Generally the worst of the symptoms including morning sickness tend to hit full force at 6 weeks pregnant (about 4 weeks after conception). The earliest it can happen is about 8-10 days after conception because it takes that long for the sperm to find the egg, the fertilized egg to implant in the uterus, and your body to start producing pregnancy hormone enough to cause pregnancy symptoms. Before this happens, your body doesn’t even know it’s pregnant so any symptoms including morning sickness one might feel just a day after sex can absolutely be disregarded as psychosomatic.

QUESTION:
how far into a pregnancy does it take before getting morning sickness?
I am wondering how far along in a pregnancy does morning sickness start? I don’t even know if i am pregnant, my boyfriend and I always use condoms and I’m on the pill, but I went on vacation without him and when i got back (last monday) we didn’t use a condom because we wanted it without for once and i was taking my birth control pill on time every day, but on that monday i also took another pill which i just found out can sometimes stop the birth control from working, Starting the very next day i was starting to feel nauseous (not to bad though) at random points in the day, now, a little over a week later, I have still been feeling nauseous at random points in the day, but i haven’t thrown up or anything yet, I have also been feeling more gassy other than those two things i don’t really notice anything else different, i have a week before i start my period so i am wait to see if it comes before taking a test to find out, so I was just wondering if it is possible to have these symptoms this soon if i was pregnant? does it sound like I could be?
Sorry about all the information and thanks for helping!
It’s only been a week since we had sex without a condom, i didn’t think i could take a test yet? or can I? I thought i had to wait to see if i skip my period..
Thank you everyone, I’ll make sure to pick best answer later.

• ANSWER:
  It’s possible that you could be pregnant, but you’ll have to wait a while to test still. It’s very unlikely that you’d be experiencing pregnancy-related nausea already, though. Usually, if you’re going to get morning sickness it’ll start somewhere between 6-8 weeks. Some women don’t get it at all though. It’s probably just your nerves or stress or maybe a stomach bug making you nauseous at this point.

  Edit: The most sensitive home pregnancy test, First Response Early Result, can detect pregnancy hormone in only some women at 6 days before a missed period. I’d wait until 1 day before your period is due, at the earliest, to test. I used a First Response at 3 days before my period was due and got a negative, then 1 day before I was due and it was positive. Good luck!

QUESTION:
mums:When in your pregnancy did you experience morning sickness?&how severe was it?Thanks?
and was it worse with 1st or 2nd / 3rd etc etc

I am 6 weeks and 2 days and im feeling sick a few times each day but wondered if this is all i will get as im hoping it is as ive got my 2 year old daughter to look after aswell and with her it went so quick and was very mild Thanks and MERRY CHRISTMAS x

• ANSWER:
  With my first two kids, I only felt slightly sick, with this baby ( my third) the nasueas was fairly bad, but drinking some Gingerale (if in the UK American ginger ale, u can get it at spar) took care of that, it started earily on and lasted till around the second trimester.

QUESTION:
“Morning” sickness and vitamin b6 & b12? Any experience?
With my first pregnancy I suffered from “morning” sickness really bad. I threw up and felt nauseas from morning till night. It lasted from about 7 weeks to 18 weeks. I have recently come across information that vitamin B6 & b12 can help. Does anyone have any experience with this? What dosage did you take? How much did it help? I’m pretty sure I am pregnant again as my period is late and I just don’t want to go through the same thing again, especially not while taking care of a toddler lol =).

• ANSWER:
  I was also sick from the beginning until around 17 weeks and my doctor gave me b natal lollipops and they actually made me feel worse. It was like a sucker with B6 in it and it didn’t help one bit. Sleeping a lot was the only thing that made me feel any better.

QUESTION:
Mustang has morning sickness?
I have a 2002 Mustang GT with an automatic transmission. When I start the car in the morning, I let it warm up a little before I put it into reverse. It goes back fine but when I go to put it back in drive, it takes approximately 3-4 seconds & then the car tries to shudder but I just take my time giving it gas & it goes fine. But, if I park the car for awhile, after moving it in the morning, I start it & put it in reverse & it won’t go right into reverse but takes about 3-4 seconds and then when I go forward it will try to shudder. If I am going forward out of a parking space, etc., I will get the shudder. I went to a transmission shop and he told me that my fluid is OK. It shows a lot of highway miles (as I drive the freeway each morning to work). He told me to put something called LubeGard in the transmission & to let it work itself into the system to soften the seals. It worked for about a week & now the shudder has started again. I have tried to call him back to see if there is something else I can add (which I don’t want to mix stuff that won’t mesh together) or we need to do a transmission service & go from there but have not heard back. Does anyone have any information. Thanks.

• ANSWER:
  What’s most likely happening is that the some of the parts in the transmission are hardening or becoming brittle… seals and O-rings do that over time and due to high temperatures inside the case. The pressure doesn’t build up as fast as it should by design… thus it takes a few seconds for the transmission to “kick-in” and engage. As you noticed on your car, it still shudders for a bit even after the car starts to move… and again, that’s because there isn’t enough pressure in one particular place in the transmission to keep the power constant and even like it’s supposed to be. After the trans is fully warmed up and “hot”, there will be maximum sealing… so you might see the trouble go away until the trans cools off again.

  What he told you to do might have been a solution that helped out for a day, a week, a month, a year… or even longer. However, there’s no way to know how long or even if it would help at all. It’s a crap shoot. You just happened to get a week out of the bottle of Lubeguard… bummer. But at least you know what’s happening. Since I just thought of it… has anyone plugged into the computer to see if there are any error codes? You might want to do that, just to be sure there isn’t anything else going on that you don’t know about. I’ll also say that I’m writing what I am based on a few assumptions… such as there’s nothing else wrong with the car. After all, it might not be the trans but some other simple part that’s crapping out. Like what? A vacuum modulator… if your car has one. That’s one of the reasons I asked about any error codes. It’s important to check everything over first hand and in real life before diving into a trans rebuild because that’s the last thing you want to do if there isn’t anything wrong with it. Mis-diagnosing a fault can be very costly so make sure the diagnosis is correct. That would be easy for me to do since I’m basing what I write only on what you’ve written.

  So… let’s assume what I think is correct. What’s the permanent solution? I hate to say it… but… a total tear-down, cleaning and inspection of your trans along with a flawless re-assembly. It needs to have any hard parts replaced that are worn beyond specs (hard parts are shafts, gears, etc) and all the “soft” parts replaced. Soft parts are all the seals and gaskets. Essentially, that means the trans needs to be rebuilt. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news… but that is the ONLY real and permanent solution. This type of problem never truly goes away… and even if you dump in a bottle of goo and it works, there’s no way to know how long it’ll help. The bottom line is that parts just wear out over time and miles… and you did mention that your car has a lot of highway miles on it. The odds are that it’s just time for a rebuild, it’s just that simple.

  Also, at this stage it doesn’t matter whether the fluid is 100% fresh or not… because the fluid has nothing to do with it when seals are old and not functioning like they’re supposed to be. Seals either fully seal or they don’t. They either hold line pressure to the minimum requirements or they don’t. In short, yours don’t seem to be doing the job… so they need to be replaced by new ones. Again, sorry to be the bearer of bad news but it’s all a part of owning and maintaining a car. Best wishes!

QUESTION:
Girlfriends morning sickness! Please Help!?
Hi there,

My fiance is 8 weeks gone but is being sick from the minute she wakes up till the minute she falls asleep.

It’s getting her really down as she cannot eat drink or go out it’s that bad.

I can’t cuddle her, hold her hands or anything, this has been happening for 3 weeks now.

I have been told to try a rich tea biscuit in the morning but she sicks it up straight away.

Are there any tablets or methods to rid her of this feeling? I feel terrible for her seeing her like this.

If you need more information about the pregnancy just ask and I will update the question.
No not been to the doctors yet we have just got back from a week in Egypt and i’m starting to get a bit worried now

• ANSWER:
  This sounds a lot like hyperemasis ( I probably spelled that wrong ) something I had when I was pregnant. I know this might sound bad but the thing that actually helped me the most through out my pregnancy and probably even kept me and my daughter alive was taking a hit of weed a day. It really helped me feel better and even gave me the munchies so I was able to eat. It is actually safer to take than zofran which is the most common prescription for hyperemasis. you should talk to her doctor about zofran if you’re anti weed. But weed really can be used as a medican and has less side affects than any other anti nausea medican. Try resurching hyperemasis and see if this sounds like what she is going through. It is a verry serious condition which in some cases can cause a misscaraig and even death to the mother as well as the baby

QUESTION:
Severe morning sickness help?
My wife will be 8 months pregnant soon and is one of the few unlucky lady’s to have it really bad, she’s eaten very little, and most of it’s been vomited up. She can drink water in little increments and is almost always nauseated. I’m wondering if there’s anything she can take or drink that will help her, I’ve looked up information and found she’s probably suffering from Starvation Ketosis, I bought her a couple power-aids and a box of saltines and and wheat thins, is there anything that would work better for her? We plan on calling her OBGYN in the morning and settling this with some medication to help her out. Any knowledgeable advice will help! Please and thank you.

• ANSWER:
  She’s probably also suffering from severe hydration if she isn’t able to keep anything down. I would take her to the hospital so they can give her and the baby some fluids, which should also help with some of the nausea.

  If it’s just the nausea you can try the vitamin B-6 or I’ve heard some people swear by ginger.

  If she’s miserable, why not try and fix the problem now instead of waiting till the morning. If she’s suffering that probably means the baby is as well. Take precaution, even if you think you might be over reacting.

QUESTION:
Severe morning sickness and nausea (Not pregnant)?
Every single morning before I go to school, I feel to so sick to even get out of bed. My stomach sometimes hurts like crazy so it all but prevents me from going to school. I don’t think I’m pregnant because I just got my period 6 months ago and it’s been going no regularly. I have not had sex and I’m only 12 so that cannot be the case. Does anyone know what is wrong with me?? The thing is that, usually by around noon, the nausea and the pain goes away. COULD I HAVE A TUMOR?? Please give me any information that you can. Thank you.
Along with the nausea, I have stomach pain and sometimes even hyperventilation or heavy breathing or panting.

• ANSWER:
  You could just be having a tough time with your body getting used to having periods, but there are also other things it could be ranging from panic attacks to other more complicated causes.

  If this has been going on for 6 months it is far too long. Not only does it make you feel rubbish, it will probably be having an effect on your school work by now. Get your mum to go with you to the doctors. If the doctor can’t sort you out, insist they refer you to some who will do more tests and find out exactly what is causing you to feel so rough.

  Hope things get better for your soon (((hugs)))

QUESTION:
How early have people ever had morning sickness?
I was sick alot this morning, not really much came up but at times i could tell something wanted to.
This happened about 5 times and i just woke up and was sick.
I feel like my breasts have grown and i keep getting slight period twinges but i assumed this was where my period was coming.
Thinking about it now, i’ve been weeing alot lately but i haven’t been drinking anymore than usual.
I’ve been really down and felt quite depressed.
So i was wondering, i am actually on the pill but i am concerned it may not have worked this month, i finish my last pill today (i haven’t taken it yet) and then give or take a day i should come on my period.
Is this too early for signs though? What’s the earliest anyone has ever had symptoms and what were they?
Don’t tell me to go and get a pregnancy test, i am having a blood test tomorrow as i am being tested for other things so i guess it would come up then.
Just please, any information i’d be really grateful.
Thanks x

• ANSWER:
  My morning sickness started at about 6 weeks.

  I have no idea if it’s too early for you as you have given no indication of when your last period was.

  Also – your blood test won’t show up that you are pregnant unless they specifically test for that.

QUESTION:
When do HCG levels peak – I am suffering mild morning sickness?
Hi, I am 33 and recently became pregnant with my husbands and my first child. I have another child to a previous marriage she is 14 and I suffered terribly with her with Hyperemesis Gravidarum. I was in and out of hospital and on drips all the time.
I have decided after 12 years of being with my current husband that I would like a child with him, but I am very fearful about going through the sickness again.
I have been following a pattern of taking ginger tablets and having ginger tea, also been eating every couple of hours small meals. I am 6 weeks now and I started feeling nausea last Monday. So far it has only been mild, I would feel sick, but not vomiting between 8am-12pm and then again later in the afternoon when I get home.
So far I have manage not to vomit, but was wondering if it will get worse or if what I am doing is helping to keep it away. With my first child I was sick from the minutes I found out and it didn’t stop.
Does anyone have any words of advice or information that might help me work out if this is the worst it is going to get.

• ANSWER:
  I forget. I think it’s around 12 weeks.

QUESTION:
Based on this information, is it possible that I could be pregnant?
Am I pregnant? I’ve been craving sour stuff. Like, I bought 3 half gallons of Minute Maid Limeaid and I’m on the 2nd carton. Also, I had sex 3 days ago, with a condom, and the guy did not ejaculate while we were having sex. In addition to that, I haven’t had any morning sickness and I got drunk last night. My questions: Am I pregnant? If I had sex 3 days ago, would it be too soon to tell? I got drunk last night. Can that hurt the baby if I am pregnant?

QUESTION:
how early can morning sickness start?
I live with my husband, and I am on the Pill, but lately I have been feeling really queasy on and off for the last week or so. I really started thinking about it yesterday when he was making breakfast and the smell of the bacon made me have to go outside before I actually was ill. I have never been averse to this smell before, and at first I thought I might have just eaten something that did not agree with me. I have been really sore and stiff for a few days, and insanely tired. To be honest I have never had children before, and everything I look at online seems to have different information. Can anyone who has had experience with this give me a clue.

Thanks.
I took an at home test, but I am not due to start my period for another week and a half. It came out negative, but said that you should not expect results until 5 days before you are supposed to start. I really cannot ask my family because just the thought would panick them and I would never hear the end of it. I read that it could start as early as 2 weeks, but that seemed strange.

• ANSWER:
  my first pregnancy i think it started about 5 maybe 6 weeks, with my second it was about 8 weeks. everyone is different though, and morning sickness can start before a missed period, my sister was throwing up 5 days before her period was due with all 4 of her pregnancy’s

QUESTION:
How did you cure the morning sickness all day????
Alright, I have been feeling oh so sick. I am 8 weeks pregnant with twins. I have been sick all day long. Sometimes I vomit and sometimes I don’t. Also I find it so hard to sleep at night. My tummy just feels like its in pain, but nothing to worry about. I have no interest in food, which i need to. My doctor says I need to gain weight.Just wondering if any other moms or soon to be moms have had this experience. I just feel drained all the time and don’t want to do nothing. I barely have worked and when I do it is usually half days cause I just feel to sick or worn out. Any helpful information would be appricated. I am pregnant for my first time, so I am new at this. Thanks.

• ANSWER:
  I am 12 weeks pregnant with my first (not twins) but i have had all day morning sickness since i was 5 weeks and I know how horrible and draining it is! Make sure you try to drink alot of water and eat when you feel like and what ever you feel like. Talk to your doc about anti-nausea pills they may be able to help. Other wise i have been taking ginger tablets which at least allowed me to eat again, still nauseated but i can handle eating now where as before i was like you and couldnt even stand talking or thinking about food,ewww. If you are feeling really drained then make sure you rest enough and dont over do it at work, if you need to go home or stay home to rest then do so. Your new baby comes before everything. Im still hoping that this will pass soon and i hope so for you too!! Good luck.

QUESTION:
17 weeks preg and feeling dizzy and morning sickness?
if i dont eat as soon as i wake up i feel sick. i have pills to help for nausea. one for when ever i need to take it 6-8 hours(promethazine) and one to take with every meal and before bed(metoclopram). i take one or the other every time i feel like im going to throw up but it only helps temporarily. i work a lot thru out the day so i cant eat much. but when i dont eat i feel dizzy and throw up stomach acid.. but when im not eating at work i dont exactly feel very hungry. like right now im not really hungry but feel sick. last time i ate was noon and its now 7:11pm again im not hungry(had big lunch) but am gonna have to eat cuz i know im going to throw up. i know im not pose to drink soda but i find at work if i drink a little solo cone( those little paper cones you find in like dealerships with the huge gallon of water) of dr pepper it helps me a little. but if i let it go by without getting some more i get dizzy. then if i dont eat so much after i drink the soda i throw up the soda. sigh. i know this is alot of information, im just really looking for some advice.

• ANSWER:
  Hi, I had morning sickness all nine months with my son, even threw up in delivery. Morning sickness is always worse when you don’t eat, and eating just doesn’t feel good when you feel nauseous, I know. I found that eating pretzels with salt, like Rolled Gold (is that the name, I think I spelled it wrong lol), the salt helped neutralize the stomach acid and I didn’t feel as sick. Everyone is different though, and hopefully you stumble across what makes you less ill when you eat it.

  I discovered at about 18 weeks along that my saliva was different, and it was this saliva that caused my to feel ill a lot of the time. When pregnant, your saliva can sometimes get tiny air bubbles in it, and when you inadvertently swallow it, it adds air to your stomach, causing nausea. That saliva only went away AFTER my son was born =/

  As for the dizziness, I think low blood sugar can cause that. If you are avoiding food due to nausea, you are depriving yourself and your baby of many things. Try and keep something, even a hard candy in your pocket to keep your blood sugar up.

  Try to eat just a few bites even, bigger meals tend to make you more ill. Five small meals a day is better than three big ones. I know you work a lot, but your doctor should be able to write you a note excusing you to have a few extra breaks, mine did. (I worked in a production line)

  They say laying on your left side is good for you and your baby (I found it actually eased the nausea).

  I wish you the best of luck, and I hope that the morning sickness passes for you! Congratulations!

Taking Zofran for motion sickness?
I am flying from Atlanta to Denver in about a week (3.5 hr flight) and I suffer from severe motion sickness. My doctor prescribed Zofran for it.

How do i know if im pregnant?
Ok so I have not gotten my period for about 2 months, my boobs are sore and im tired alot (altho im always tired). I have taken 3 test they all have said no. However i have a friend that has 3 kids and all of the test she took said no. I have had no morning sickness or anything like that. Any information anyone can give me would be appreciated.

• ANSWER:
  The enormous hormonal changes taking place during pregnancy trigger a variety of symptoms. Some women will experience all of the symptoms of early pregnancy, while others may have only a few.

  Most symptoms – such as amenorrhoea (missed period), morning sickness or fatigue – can also be caused by stress, illness or other events, so a suspected pregnancy needs to be confirmed with urine or blood tests.

  These tests check for the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). Absolute and irrefutable proof of pregnancy is the baby’s heartbeat (which can be heard through a special listening device somewhere between weeks 10 and 12), or viewing the baby with an ultrasound scan.

  If you suspect you may be pregnant, see your doctor or family planning professional for confirmation.

  The symptoms of early pregnancy can include:

  Missed period (amenorrhoea)
  Morning sickness
  Breast changes
  Fatigue
  Frequent urination
  Mood changes
  Food cravings.

  Hope this info helps!

QUESTION:
ANY helpful information on TRAVEL SICKNESS/PANIC ATTACKS/NERVES?
In a few weeks time me and my best friend are going to southampton, its the first time i’ve been away on my own (apart from leeds festival) and im really nervous. One of the main reasons why im nervous is because I have to wake up for our flight at 4am, then theres a short car journey, a plane then a bus for 1h 30mins.. all this is during the morning! I dont normally get travel sick, but my nerves seem to take over and it ends up making me feel really lousy and sick – however i havent been sick because of my nerves as of yet, I was just wondering if theres any helpful tips such as what i should not eat before the flight? what i should eat to settle my stomache? what drinks should i stick to? breathing techniques? .. I know i sound so silly, but it really does effect me and this trip is for my birthday, i dont want it to get ruined by me feeling ill or i wont want to go around shopping! please any useful information or experiances will be MUCH appreciated!

• ANSWER:
  In this case it is best to stick to fluids especially fruit juices, and semisolid foods like soups, mashed potatoes and jello.
  You might want to get a prescription of Dramamine (meclizine) from your doctor which is a medicine for Motion Sickness and Vertigo and you can take that just before your flight.
  Deep breathing and holding in your breath for few seconds also helps.

QUESTION:
What do you think about pregnancy in high schools?
I am writing a paper for my university class and I am wanting other opinions on it. My subject is pregnancy in high schools and whether or not schools should kick the girls out or be more flexible to their needs…within reason of course! I think that schools should let the girls stay in school and just be more lenient to their needs (i.e. later start for morning sickness, snacking in class, etc.) please give me all information and possibly links to help out. Thanks!

QUESTION:
signs of early pregnancy!!! taken from the net! a good list!!?
I am overdue for my period and experiencing cramping, headaches, pimples, fatigue, gas, going to the toilet more often and many other symptoms, Yet i am unsure whether i am just due for my period or could i be pregnant.. I am only at the 4-5 wk mark so have no real clue as yet! I came across the list below on the net! Thought this might answer a few Q’s in regards to the symptoms and the ppe who ask could they actually be pregnant or not this month!

You may start noticing pregnancy symptoms and/or be able to detect pregnancy after implantation, which occurs from around 7-10 days post ovulation. If you have conceived, the embryo starts to produce hCG after implantation and not before, so it is not possible to detect pregnancy or have pregnancy symptoms before this time. So the longer you wait to test after ovulation, the more accurate the result will be and the darker the potential positive test line may be. Pregnancy testing should ideally be done from the day your period would have been due.

What Pregnancy Symptoms Might I Experience?
Below is a list of pregnancy symptoms which you may find signal pregnancy for your own body. Remember, every woman and every pregnancy is different, so there’s no need to panic if you don’t have all of the listed pregnancy symptoms. I had absolutely no noticable symptoms (apart from not having a period) with my second pregnancy until 11 weeks.

High BBT (Basal Body Temperature)
If you regularly chart your cycle and take your temperatures, you will notice that your BBT will remain high throughout your luteal phase. Progesterone causes your BBT to rise upon ovulation and stay elevated should you be pregnant. If you are not pregnant, your BBT will drop right down and you’ll get your period as normal.

Missed / No Period
One of the first pregnancy symptoms you may notice is that your period does not arrive. While this symptom is one we most commonly associate with pregnancy, there may be other reasons why a period hasn’t arrived, for example high levels of stress, major illness or surgery. On the other hand, it’s possible to continue to have your periods during pregnancy. Some women may bleed for just a few months or even their whole pregnancy. (See our topic on Bleeding in Pregnancy for more information).

Morning Sickness
Another well known pregnancy symptom is morning sickness. Don’t let it’s name fool you – morning sickness can pay you a visit any time of day, so make sure you eat enough and avoid letting your blood sugar levels drop. Ginger is a great natural remedy for nausea so it’s worth a try, although some women find that nothing seems to help their morning sickness, which normally hangs around for the first trimester before getting better or if you are unlucky, the second trimester or even whole pregnancy. (See our topic on Common Pregnancy Ailments for more information).

Breast Changes
From very early on in pregnancy a symptom you may notice is changes in your breasts, including:

•Nipples may be tender and sensitive – some women describe their nipples to be irritatingly sensitive!
•Breast may be sore and / or lumpy
•Nipples may deepen in colour
•Veins may become more noticeable and enlarged in the breast area
•Areolas may darken (circles around your nipples)
•The little ‘bumps’ on your areolas (Montgomery’s Tubercles) may increase and / or enlargen
Increased Cervical Mucus
A surge in progesterone often results in a surge of creamy cervical mucus production. Some women may notice a little, and some notice much more.

Fatigue
When you first become pregnant, your metabolism steps up a few gears in order to support your developing baby as well as your own body, which creates one big workload! You may become so immensely tired that you feel that you need to sleep more than usual. Not only that, but the hormone progesterone which is required in high levels during pregnancy has a sedating effect. No wonder you feel so very tired! If you need to rest or sleep, don’t fight your body – it needs it!

Frequent Urination
As soon as a week after conception, you may notice yourself dashing off to the toilet more often, only to find that you’re urinating small amounts! This happens because the embryo starts to secrete the pregnancy hormone hCG, which signals for the blood supply to increase in the pelvic area. This results in the bladder becoming irritable and it passes even small amounts of urine. You may find you will wake in the night to urinate more often than usual.

Cramping
This symptom of early pregnancy can also be an unnerving one for parents-to-be, as often there is a fear of miscarriage. However even when not pregnant, your uterus is continually contracting. When pregnant, the foetus grows and pushes against the walls of your uterus, which causes it to contract – this is very normal.

If the cramping is accompanied by bleeding, see your doctor who can assess the situation to see if you may be having a miscarriage. However do n

think this is about it! still thinking could it all be in my head or is my period around the corner.. am doubtful as the test i did here turned out neg!

• ANSWER:
  With my first pregnancy, somehow I “knew” I was pregnant. I felt fuller in my pelvic region (it was not like my stomach was full or anything), but I had only a handful of other symptoms. Going to the bathroom often is one, but it is a bit misleading – its sometimes not such a huge ‘urge’ to go like they describe in books. My basal temperature was higher, but you have to use a Basal thermometer to see it (and you need to have taken your temperature daily before getting pregs too so you can compare).
  With my second, I had major fatigue right away, but no ‘feeling’ or anything. I found out I was pregnant a few days after being extremely tired (like falling asleep during dinner tired!).
  Take a test – you are past your period due date, so you should get a very accurate reading.

QUESTION:
need information on my sickness?
i’m scared that i may have genital herpes. i don’t even know if it is genital herpes or what. here’s what happened last week before i got the fever. last friday, i ate pesto (which i don’t like) in the morning, and then i attended my class in the afternoon, but the airconditioner was pointed at us, including the fan, so it was really cold back then. that night, i acquired a fever, but it quickly went down during the weekend. yesterday, i was feeling better, but after my tap dancing lessons today, i have the fever again.

QUESTION:
Take a guess at the sex of my baby based on the following information….?
I’m 19w 2d pregnant. I’m having my ultrasound tomorrow to find out the sex. I’m just interested in what others think the sex of the baby may be based on the following information:

1. I’ve had no morning sickness whatsoever
2. I’ve gained 12 pounds so far
3. Heartrate at 9w 2d was 170 and at 12w 3d was 122
4. Chinese gender prediction says I’m having a girl
5. When I hang my ring over my belly on a string the ring goes in circles.

It’s just for a bit of fun. I’m hoping it’s a girl but either way I’ll be happy as long as my baby is healthy. Thanks in advance for your answers everyone.

QUESTION:
Pregnancy, work and sickness. Please help. UK.?
Called in sick as morning sickness all throughout the night. So I had no sleep and I was still being sick. I got a call back 15 minutes later from a supervisor asking why I called in sick and whether or not I can return to work same day. Advised I would see how I felt but if I was unable to I would definately inform them. 

I could go back to work as I never got sleep and I was very sick still. 

Returned to work the next day…

I had a back to work meeting where I was told if I was to continue to be sick they will force me to go on maternity leave. Bare in mind I’m 15 weeks. They also said that it’s dangerous having morning sickness this far on in my pregnancy and is a cause for concern. 
I was asked what treatment I was on and was I doing everything to stop it. I did advise that I was having ingestetion tablets and Ginger tea. Supervisor then asked me if I was smoking still. I gave up the day before but I refused to answer. Overall I was made out to be a worse person in the world. Worse than cancer I wish I was exaggerating. 
Supervisor cont meeting. Telling me this and that and that from a company point of view I was not doing everything I should be doing to prevent my morning sickness as I was still smoking. Please let me point out I don’t smoke any more. That smoking causes and exaggerate morning sickness personallly and medically I thought it was based on HCG levels growing. 

Overall for 1 day sickness I have to get my GP to write a report on me for the day I was sick. Is this right?? 

I spoke to ACAS they have informed me that they’re breaking the law. They are breaching sex discrimination act. Employment act and the data protection act as they do jot require all this information from myself. I mean my work doesn’t need all this info. 
Sorry morning sickness is NOT caused by smoking does take a genius to work that one out lol

• ANSWER:
  Your Supervisor could cost your company a lot of money. They are a moron as they do not understand the trouble your employer would be in. You are dealing with a tin pot idiot. You need to be talking to your manager.

  Take note of everything your supervisor says and never deal with them unless you have a witness with you. Email me if you need any more support.

QUESTION:
Is it possible to have a miscarriage and still be pregnate?
I went to the hospital 1 week ago and the doctor told me I was having a miscarriage. Young ass of a doctor he was didn’t give me much information just gave me pain pills said that everything should pass on its own and make and appointment to see an ob/gyn when i stopped bleeding. Well I go back to the doctors in a few days. But i’m still gaining weight, i’m having morning sickness,and my breast are still killing me. Is it possible that I’m still pregnate?

• ANSWER:
  Yes. My aunt miscarried at 16 weeks and had a healthy baby at 37 weeks (pregnant with twins). My SIL miscarried, and found out 6 weeks later that she was still pregnant (miscarried an ectopic pregnancy, but apparently also had a normal fetus, as well). You may have been pregnant with multiples-I would go to your regular ob/gyn and get a blood test done to be sure. I am sorry for your loss and hope that you are pregnant!

QUESTION:
Input from doctors would be appreciated. Plz check below for information.?
I’m not sure wether or not i’m pregnant. I’ve been using protection, but for the last week or so i’ve had what i think is morning sickness.

What do you think of the situation.

• ANSWER:
  i would say your pregnant its more likely to have a false negative then a false posative….but really all you can do is wait for the doc appoitment and have a blood test its possible that your not that far along and your pregnancy test haven’t dected enough pregnancy hormones to say your pregnant

It ended up showing me some good info.

QUESTION:
i think i MIGHT be pregnant at 16?
about 3 weeks ago i had unprotected sex ……. i know …. it was very stupid i don’t know where my head was at. ALCHOHOL IS EVIL. i got over my period the same day i had the unprotected sex. is it still possible that i got pregnant? i am a little late but not really late enough for significance .. although i have never really been late in my life. my nipples are really sore but i have not had any other common symptoms of pregnancy such as morning sickness. any information that may be helpful is welcome .. but please no bashing. i didn’t post this question for lectures.
no, i do not get my period every 3 weeks. if you read the entire question you’d know that i GOT OVER my period the day i had it 3 weeks ago .. therefore i am due.

• ANSWER:
  Hi,

  first things first, try not to worry, everyone makes mistakes and does daft things and loads and loads have women ave been in exactly the same situation as you.

  Are you actually late yet, it might be my maths but it seems early for you to be worrying, this website helps calculate your cycle:

  http://www.mymonthlycycles.com/amilate.jsp

  It is unlikely you will have conceived at that point in your cycle but yes it is possible and sore nipples may be a symptom.

  If you are late it is quite likely to simply be from worrying so go and buy a pregnancy test to put your mind at rest, you can test from the first day your period is due with the main brands. Boots (assuming you are in the UK) do they’re own brand ones which are simple to use and 99% accurate, buy a box of two in case one goes wrong or you need to test again if your period still hasn’t arrived in a week. You can buy an early detection test called First Response if you want to to test now but you find that your period isn’t actually due quite yet. If you want to you can go to the doctor and ask for a test, in the UK you will be treated with total confidence so your family will not be informed.

  Have you spoken to anyone else about this yet? If not, you should at least tell a friend, whether you are pregnant or not this is a stressful thing for all women to go through and its much better to have a good friend by your side.

  If you are pregnant there is loads of support out there whatever you decide so try not to worry. Even if you are not pregnant though you should consider getting a full test for sexually transmitted diseases at your local GUM clinic, again this would be in total confidence.

  Good luck and take care, don’t beat yourself up about it, it doesn’t sound like you’ll be doing it again!

  Oh and as for saying ‘but I’ve never been late in my life’- I drank too much just before Christmas and my husband and I got carried away! This month I was two weeks late and positive I must be pregnant because I had never been late in my life, but nope! Your body does funny things when you are worried about something!
