Morning Sickness - Worse before it gets better?

Question

I have been struggling with constant nausea, no appetite, and aversions to pretty much all food since week 5. Actually throwing up about one day a week. My dr prescribed Zofran and it seems like sometimes it takes the edge off but not always.

Around week 9 though I was starting to feel a little better, still nauseas but I was able to eat more than two bites without gagging. I thought it was nearing the end because I'm getting closer to the 2nd trimester.

But now that seems not to be the case. I'm 10w5d now and am having the worst week so far. Threw up my dinner last night, and on and off until 11pm, finally passed out, woke up this morning and immediately started throwing up again. There is nothing left in my stomach but bile. Can't even keep ginger ale down, any time I try to stand up I feel dizzy and get sick.

Did your morning sickness get better or worse toward the end of the first trimester?

Answer

I had it so bad from week 6-week 15 that I had lost 25lbs because of it. Now I'm 18 weeks and I only throw up about once or twice a week.

Answer

It seems to be different for everyone but I'm 14w + 1d and still throw up multiple times a day. Some days are better than others. One day I might only get sick 1 time and the next day 5-6 times. Hope it goes away for the both of us soon though!

Answer

Oh, the morning sickness is the worst!  For me it started at 7 weeks and continued until 17 weeks.  I threw up daily during that time, and sometimes several times per day.  All food smelled bad to me, and I could almost never think of anything that sounded good to eat.  Even ginger ale started to remind me of vomit after a while.

Good news is that after 17 weeks it pretty much dropped off, I can eat normally again, and I'm now 38 weeks and 1 day and seem to be doing fine.  I had a little resurgence of nausea last weekend, which can be normal at the end, but didn't throw up.

Hang in there!  I know it is hard!

It disappeared when I got to the 12 week, it will get better and you're gonna be starving, eating the walls lol don't worry, it goes away.

Answer

Try the Psi Band I know it sounds ridiculous that wearing a wrist band is going to help the nausea... I thought it was total bs too. But I got one because I was suffering from horrible violent morning sickness I mean bad like it was cause if my weight to drop. But the band has a ball in the inside which is to hit your Nel-kuan acupuncture point so it gives you almost instant relief of your nausea. The only down side is that it won't stop your throwing up but obviously that can't be stopped anyway. But without nausea usually leads to no throwing up. Also try eating sour candy so you can gain your appetite back and not worry so much about the vomiting. ( sour skittles, and sour patch kids, also sucking on lemon... works like a charm!) I would give either a shot.
