Someone Tell Me It Gets Better...
Posted: 02-06-05 00:22am

"morning" sickness is totally kicking my butt! I'm taking prescription meds for it and it just seems to push back the nausea for an hour or two. Food is no longer appealing and when it is, the minute it hits my mouth I get so sick. It's really starting to suck ladies! Tell me it gets better... I'll be 8 weeks tomorrow so I still have a ways to go. It seems like the only time I have relief from it is when i'm sleeping :(

on another note, I had my first preg dream last night! I was having my first ultrasound and the first thing we see... A penis. Haha I think we might be preparing for a boy :) lol

how is everyone else doing??

Uh...I don't wanna jinx you, but I can't tell you it gets better. Because I don't know if it will for you...

Mine lasted up until my 8th month. It was complete hell.

I hope things go better for you! How far along are you?

Lol ok :) we'll have to start on that soon so I have time to catch up before the stampede. I have to warn u though, he's a stubborn man, but u just have to know which buttons to push. The crying one works well. Not that I use that. Lol i'm heading to bed now, it's late, so we'll have to plan this later. Lol night :)

I never got sick during my pregnancy so i'm no help... Has your doctor advised anything else? My only reccommendation is try seeing a nutritionist... I went to one during my pregnancy and there was another girl there because she kept loosing weight from throwing up and he helped her tremendously.. You can ask your doc for referrals

From 6 weeks to about 11 weeks, I couldn't eat anything.....The smell of food made me sick, and if my stomache ever got empty, I would get sick! It was awful!! I'm 13 weeks 3 days and my appetite has come back alot!! I still get quesey every now and then, but it's much better!! You should start feeling better within the next couple of weeks!! Good luck!!

Usually the morning sickness gets better in the 2nd trimester but I had a friend on an iv the whole pregnancy because she was so sick. The crying doesn't get get better until the baby is born. I cried yesterday because someone in my book had a baby. I am only 19 weeks

My Morning Sickness
Posted: 02-08-05 16:35pm

Most of the time it goes away around the beginning of the second trimester but unfortunatly for me I was sick everyday at least once a day the whole nine months. Hope yours gets better. Dahlia and kyrie!!
