Thoughts on Morning Sickness vs Caffeine Withdrawal

Mikaela

Need everyone’s thoughts on this because I think I’ve had an epiphany today! I’m 8 weeks 2 days and I’ve had fairly consistent morning sickness for the past few weeks, but nothing that was unmanageable. However, mid-week this past week, I got to the point where I was so sick (nausea, headache, and fatigue) that I could barely leave my bed.

I’ve been so discouraged, but today I’ve felt a tad bit better, which got me thinking. I completely lost my desire to drink coffee or any other drinks with caffeine in them earlier this week and inadvertently went cold turkey because of this. I’m now wondering if this severity of sickness may be caffeine withdrawal. This gives me so much hope that I may be functional again soon. Has anyone else experienced this?
