Ladies-I'm 9 weeks pregnant, so sick, dizzy, vomitting, nauseus 24/7 and just plain miserable! I stumbled on this website and on the one hand don't feel like a whimp for being so sick and on the other hope we all turn the sickness corner soon!! The only thing that seems to work for me is Promethegan suppositories. I tried Zofran but I started throwing that up too! I had one child 11 years ago and do not remember getting this sick and then had 2 MC in the last 2 years. So happy to be pregnant but so miserable with being so sick. I teach and need to go back to school soon. I'm very frightened I won't be able to work if this keeps up. It's very frustrating but I know it can't possibly go on....too much longer

I am 7 weeks pregnant now, this is my 2nd pregnancy. During my 1st pregnancy, i'm having morning sickness from 6 weeks onwards and it continue until 14 weeks which i almost gave up. Everyday i just feel depress,throw out everything i eat,the only time i feel better is when i sleep.And now i start to feel the same morning sickness again,i just pray hard that this time will not be as bad as my 1st one.When i think of the nausea feeling and everyday look at calendar and think when can all this over,i feel scare.Do not understand why pregnant become disaster to those with morning sickness

Ladies, I'm on baby #4 and my MS is as bad as it was for the first 3. I cannot handle smells of any kind, thinking about food, standing, walking, talking ugh. I take Zofran which eases it, but really, the only time I feel good is when I am sleeping. My kids are troopers, helping when they can and watching a boatload of TV. This usually lasts, for me, until week 20 -- so I only have 14 more weeks to go:( It will be worth it in the end, but until then, it is totally normal for any of us out there to feel depressed, unhappy about pregnancy and life in general. Try eating without thinking about it -- don't think about it all -- just eat anything. Hang in there and try to use lemons to combat the smell thing -- lemon essential oils around the house, lemonade etc. Good luck to you all.

Kim from United States of America

Hey all! I am 8 weeks preggo and feel your pain. I usually throw up 3 times a day before 1:30 pm, then I am nauseated for the rest of the time. Unlike most of you though, I am embracing this time as I miscarried the last round and didn't have hardly any morning sickness with that pregnancy. While not feeling nausiated isn't necessarily an indication of miscarriage, feeling sick to my stomach reminds me that in 7 months I will have a little one and for me that makes it all worthwhile! I have read that ginger is the most helpful, you can buy candied ginger in most health food stores or cut a cube of fresh ginger and steep it in some hot water for a few minutes. Hang in there everyone!

Finnmommy from United States of America

I am so happy to hear that there are other who are suffering as much as I am. I never once thought about MS when trying to get pregnant, and now I am trying very hard to not regret my decision to have a baby. I feel sick ALL THE TIME!

I have only vomited a few times, but this constant nausea has completely wiped me out! I hate being pregnant (about 8 weeks now) and cannot stand the thought of having to feel like this for much longer. I am very sensitive to smells, so everything in my house makes me sick as a dog. I have lost all joy in my life. I feel miserable at work but I am so anxious when at home that I rather leave the house. I only feel good when I eat but I cannot make myself eat anything! If I don't eat something every 2 hrs. my condition worsens, but I cannot even think of things to eat without being sick.

This is the worst I have ever felt in my whole entire life. Hope it passes soon.

Stay strong ladies, and let's try to focus on the positive (baby!).

Alice from United States of America

Anyone else want to be just left alone when feeling sick and tired.I have noticed that I dont even feel like talking to my husband or even answering his questions or anything nowadays.I feel guilty about it and of course out of control. I have thoughts of how much the baby will make me sick and trouble me after it is born. I think its all because I feel so sick to the stomach all the time.I am not vomitting just feeling like it with terrible heartburn and indigestion.I have this bad taste in my mouth all the time and hate to even hear about food. When I am hungry I feel so so sick and nauseas and when I eat I feel better for just an hour or two. I am tired all the time and want to lie in bed all day and do nothing.Fortunately I dont work so I can do that on most days..
I just hope there is a light at the end of this long dark tunnel

I am 3 1/2 months pregnant with my second child and i dont remember my first being this bad.... I know i had morning sickness wit her but i dont think it was this bad..... Or it could be that time has washed away the bad memories!!!! N e woo ive been sick all day for about 2 and 1/2 months now... sometimes i feel awesome and others... like today i feel horrible!!!!! I feel so bad for my daughter cuz all i want to do is lay on the couch and shes out of school 4 summer and wants to go to parks and pools and i just dont feel up to it... I also feel bad for my husband... Im so crabby to him but i truely cant help it....I tried to explain to him that its like a bad hangover but all day everyday.....I told my doctor about it and he gave my some nausea pills which help but dont take it away.... If i remember right... wit my first child i was only sick the frist 3 months or so.... sooooo i should be done wit it soon now that im 3 1/2 months.... Its good to see im not alone but at the same time sad to see so many other mothers to be are dealing wit this same sickness.... Then my doctor told me some women have it there entire pregnancy .... I so could not handle that..... Ill just crawl in a hole and lay there for the next 5 1/2 months..... And all i keep tellin myself is at least when this is all said done we'll have a new baby to admire .... So ladies stay strong.... it will all be over soon enough!

Lizzie from United Kingdom

Hey there, I'm 16 weeks pregnant and have had a pretty rough time feeling sick 24/7 for the past 10 weeks. I was really looking forward to being pregnant but most often it feels like an ordeal! I feel guilty for not having that blissful feeling and feel I have to pretend that I am so happy when in fact all I can think about is trying not to be sick. I just hope it doesn't last for the whole 9 months and that I do get to enjoy some of it. Good luck to you all!

Pam from United States of America

Stay strong ladies - we can do it! I'm now at 16 weeks and after having taken a medical leave will most likely need to step down from my job (which I love). I'm not as sick as I had been, but every day is different. Some days I feel great (aka: don't throw up) and other days I'm back on the couch with Zofran and Phenergan at my side. My husband is heading out of town for the weekend and I really don't want him to go, but I know he needs a break. I'm nervous about being home alone for three days. Last night I just lost it and cried all evening until I finally fell asleep. The good news is that I can finally admit, without feeling guilty or ashamed, that I don't like being pregnant. I'm looking forward to having a baby AND I no longer feel I need to pretend that pregnancy is the best thing ever. I have friends who simply loved being pregnant and describe it as one of the best times of their life. Well, I'm through with comparing myself to them - they weren't throwing up at all hours of the day/night, going to the ER for hydration, and needing to quit their job!!! I'm at peace and looking forward to meeting my little one in December.

kelley from United States of America

I am about 7 1/2 weeks pregnant with my second and feeling awful. I only vomited once but am feeling nauseated 24/7. I ended up with the morning sickness and a UTI which made me feel even worse. I don't remember my first being this hard but I have a toddler now and work from home so my plate is pretty full. All I really want to do is lay on the couch all day. I feel depressed because I have been more irritable with my daughter than normal and life is getting to be extremely difficult and this is not who I normally am. I am praying there is an end to this misery soon. The only things that seem to help my nausea is eating before bed, an orange or a bowl of cereal and that helps with waking up in the morn and chicken noodle soup! Good luck to all.

I am so glad that I am not alone. I am 12 weeks pregnant and the morning sickness just doesn't seem to be getting any better. I am so tired constantly looking down a toilet I never imagined it could be this difficult.

Im 15 and six weeks pregnant. I had heard some people had morning sickness 24 7 but I never expected it to be this bad...school is hard just trying not to vomit. I haven't vomited yet but I can't go anywhere or do anything I just feel so sick...I had been eating but now it seems impossible..I gagged taking my prenatal. I wish there was some remedy that fixed this I admire women everywhere for they're strength during this..

Camille Peterson from United States of America

Hey everyone it's nice to know that I am not alone on this. I am 9 weeks along and I feel doing nothing becuase I always feel sick... . I am constantly wanting to go to sleep or I want to throw up. The only thing that seems to be working for me to hold down is cereal, ice cream, rootbeer, ginger snaps and baked chicken. Theres not much of a variety and I feel like I can't hold nothing down healthy but cucumbers which stays down once in a while. I know I am not the only one going through this but I give all the women who has had several children promts. This is not an easy process. If I knew that it was going to be like this I probably would have thought twice about it. I don't even feel like going to work ever..... Any ways I know that in the end its going to be worth it so I guess I'm just going to stick it through. Don't have much of a choice.

Robin from United States of America

I am 21 years old, and this is my second time around, I lost my first one at 22 weeks over a year ago, and now I am about 4 or 5 weeks. The first time was hard, I stayed sick all the time, no matter what I ate or drank. This time I have found a few things that are working, peanut butter, poweraid, and peppermints. But I feel like I need to be getting more into my body, but I cant find anything else that is working. I have to watch what vitamins I take (makes me sick also). I have even tried some baby foods, and nothing is helping. Does anyone know of anything else I can try?

Thanks everyone for sharing your stories - it's nice to know I'm not alone. 8 weeks pregnant and although I'm only been sick once I'm feeling really sick pretty much all the time and it's miserable. I had no idea I would feel this ill :O( The only time I don't feel sick is whilst I'm eating but then I'm worrying about putting on excessive weight instead and as soon as I stop eating the sickness returns. Supposed to be at work but can't face it and I'm too tired to even cry any more. I hope we all feel better soon- it must be worth it or women wouldn't keep doing this!

Linda from Australia

Thanks for all the shared stories it really helps. I'm 9 weeks and am so tired of feeling terrible all the time. For any Aussies out there, vegemite on toast seems about the only thing that is edible for me. My greatest problems is trying to go to work and do my job when all I'm thinking when I see a client is how I can stay and work without needing to run off and puke. I'm trying to work full time and finish a masters degree and feel like I constantly have the flu with exhaustion a snotty nose, aches and pains plus the horrible nausea and metallic taste. I don't get paid if I call in sick so I'm stuck dragging myself to work.

Hats off to all you women who do this more than once. If I'd known what this was going to have to go through I'm not sure I could ever have done this.. I just hope this ends soon...

Emi from Germany

Is there any new cure out thses past three years?

Misery... I am 6weeks 4days and stricken with the pregnancy flu again. I hate my kitchen, I hate eating, I hate beeing hungry, and really hate this couch I have been "living" on. If I could feel past my aching guts I would be very sorry for my husband who is now taking on my job and my sweet little girl who has been watching more tv these past few weeks than she ever has before. I knew it might might happen, but I also knew somone was missing from our family. With my first it was preggie flu to the max honestly the only thing that made my stomach hurt less was getting re-hydrated via IV bags when I was in the hospital. I am vowing to try to stay hydrated. Although I feel like vomiting after every drink. I'm hopeing this baby only makes me "feel" like vomiting rather than 1000 random and violent barfing sessions I first experienced.

Heather from United States of America

I just want to share something that might help - GUM!!!! I'm on two Zophran a day, and they don't help much. I feel like throwing up 24/7 and I've been sick for over two months. I'm at 14 weeks now and ginger, preggie pops, ginger ale, and other anti-nausea pills were useless for me. The only thing that helps is gum. I chew it all day long and even in bed at night to stop from vomitting. After a meal it helps to keep it down. Mint overwhelms scents around me and keep the metallic taste from my mouth. Try gum - it helps!

SP from United States of America

OMG...I thought I was the only one that was feeling like this! I mean I hear all these morning sickness stories but they all seem so mild!
The worst thing is that I'm nauseas 24/7 so I never know when its gonna actually come u! The other day I threw up all over my couch! It was horrible!! I felt like a lil kid that was gonna get in trouble!
I have to actually wear depends when I go out cause I always wet myself while vomiting! Its soo embarassing I only leave my home for drs appt! Even the smell of my own home makes me want to vomit. Not to mention my fish tank! My husband hired a house cleaner cause I can't stand the smell of anything! Once I vomited putting on my deodorant! I'm now 13w/4d and it seems to be getting worse....not better like everyone says! I have lost 35lbs so far!! I really hope this doesn't last through out my whole pregnancy!! I wanna be strong enough to push the lil booger out of me!!

I am so lucky to find this site, this site is really helpful. I am 10 weeks 2 days today, start to fell better yesterday, Hope the terrible MS will be end very soon. I read through a lot of stories and suggestion here. One thing that works for me have never been mentioned. Everytime when i feel like to vomit, i use my thumb to press the figure top of my both middle fingers, deep breath and think nothing. My mom told me there's a accputure point. It works for me, hope that will help you guys too. Hang it there.

I am just about 10 weeks preg with my second child. For the past 8.5 weeks the morning sickness was just horrible. I seem to be having more good days than bad for about a week now. Worries me because when I do get sick, I get sick. My appetite is coming back. Seem to be making up for all the time I could not eat. It does get better just use caution don't over eat. I have found that eating small meals about every two hours helps me. Grapes, apples, oranges, even a snickers....Cooking meat still gets to me. Good Luck and hope all start feeling better soon!!!

Johanna from New Zealand

Sharing my story all the way from New Zealand and I'm so glad to know that this morning sickness business is happening around the globe. I am pregnant with my 2nd child (almost 8 weeks) and with the first I had hardly any morning sickness (I don't even think it would've been considered morning sickness compared to what I'm going through now) and if I did feel sick it was quickly fixed with a piece of toast or a cracker...this time around I am rethinking the 5 other kids that I am thinking of having. This is truly a downside to being pregnant, it's 24/7 - I feel like vomitting when I sleep, and am off my meats and toast thi time doesn't seem to be helping, but hopefully it will pass and it's great to know that I am not in this alone so thanks for sharing your stories....my husband was beginning to think that I was being a drama queen.....
