Ugh is it true that “morning sickness means a healthy pregnancy?”

Question

Someone told me that and it actually didn’t make me feel better. Because THANKFULLY I haven’t had severe morning sickness. There was a week and a few days where I felt pretty nauseous but after that passed I’ve been good and extremely grateful.
🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

I had severe morning sickness and miscarried both times.  "Healthy" and "normal" vary person to person.

Answer

it varies so much from person to person and even each pregnancy. this is my first pregnancy and I've been so sick I almost had to go to the ER for dehydration. I wouldn't wish it upon anyone. but my midwife said that it's not an indicator of a viable pregnancy, it just means my body is more reactive to the hormones

Answer

I've had a super healthy pregnancy so far and I was only mildly nauseous in the first trimester. For some people more nausea can mean higher hormones that make the pregnancy stick so it can be a good sign for them!

Answer

I’m 33 weeks pregnant. Haven’t thrown up once, haven’t even had nausea at all! Baby is perfectly healthy. Every pregnancy is different.

Answer

It’s really not true. I had awful morning sickness with my last pregnancy, but it ended in a missed miscarriage at 10.5 weeks for no known reason. So I would say no, having terrible morning sickness doesn’t necessarily mean you have a healthy baby/pregnancy.

Answer

Not true. I've been pregnant twice, the first I lost to a miscarriage and I'm now 40 weeks and 6 days with a healthy baby girl. I suffered from extreme all day sickness with my first pregnancy (lost the baby at 10 weeks), and this time I've only felt mild nausea less than a handful of times this entire pregnancy.

Answer

Not all all. All four of my cousins never had the slightest bit of morning sickness and they have a total of 7 healthy kiddos. I, on the other hand, was sick for 10 weeks. Some people are just lucky. I hope you’re one of the lucky ones!

Answer

no haha.  I couldn't move if the dich did the first 4 months I was so sick and I've been having a terrible pregnancy.

Answer

No it doesn't I've had 5 pregnancy with one being a set of twins and I've never had morning sickness and so far everybody is healthy.

Answer

I read a really great book called Expecting Better and the statistics say that nausea is related to high hormone levels. it suggests that those very nauseous women have a lower miscarriage rate but not necessarily a healthier pregnancy
