Crying all the time and being sick every day - I hate this!
I have had the worst weekend ever...
I threw up last nite after eating a toasted tea cake and cup of tea. Sat morning i was in bed crying my eyes out all morning as i had the worst head ache ever and felt so ill.
This morning i had to get up for work and threw up 3 times whilst trying to get ready. then i could only stomach half a wholemeal muffin with marmite before running to the toilet again gagging. thankfully nothing came back up that time. but i just feel soooo ill. Im only 7 weeks and if this is going to get worse i dont think i will be able to cope with it. My 2 year old daughter keeps saying "Mummy, are you happy?" because she knows im not being my usual self! its just awful.
Sorry for my little rant but you guys are the only ones who have any idea how im feeling. Hubby is being great though and if I didnt have him around I dont know wot i would do. My mum thinks its all a big act as she never felt bad during her 3 pregs so cant turn to her for support!
Best get back to some work now before i run out crying...

It will get better though, although if you're only 7 weeks, it may be a while yet - just hang in there and concentrate on the fact that at the end of this you will have something beautiful that will make it all worthwhile!

its just frustrating because its not like any other illness. normally if i get a bug im sick and feel better afterwards but its just not budging at the mo and everything i eat i gag. dear o dear. please please little bean can u get all my goodness quickly and then i can feel better again!
Grudie - thats a great idea hun. u can keep being excited for me while i throw up and then when its ur turn round ill do the same for you sugar!! x x x
hope it gets better for you soon hun x
On the upside it's supposed to be a very good sign that bubba is doing well!!
Only advice I have is think about what you are eating, plain crackers, ginger biscuits and lightly buttered toast work for some people and so does lemonade and sucking mints.
Hope you feel better soon xxxx
I am so sorry you are feeling so ill. My sickness started about 6 weeks and I am coming up to 11 weeks and still feel rubbish.
I must say for me it's peaked at 10 weeks but it will all be worth it in the end and if you are that ill honey you should see your doctor about maybe being signed off for a bit.
Eating does not help me I have tried everything and still feel as sick as anything. Sometimes it will just go and then an hour or so later bang it;s back again.

Thanks again girls. I know I should be over the moon at the mo but just feelin so rough its hard to feel so happy.
Will try and keep plodding on!

I've had sickness throughout my pregnancy (hyperemesis, so unlikely that you'll have it all the way through!) and I just wanted to say that I know exactly how you feel.
I found it was better throwing up nothing than food - it didn't hurt as much! Just try to keep yourself hydrated - tiny sips of water or sucking ice cubes if you can... Your baby will be developing fine, even if you're not eating anything! Oh and the consultants as the hospital suggested that I try things like soup and yoghurt to start with - they are the easiest to digest apparently, but don't bother if they make you feel awful!!
Hope this helps,

I had very bad symtoms from 6 weeks until 14 weeks (i'm now 16+3). Was sick a hell of a lot, if I wasn't throwing up I was feeling it, I had constant headaches that wouldn't go (although drinking lots of water does help hun), incredibly sore boobs and just generally felt tired and fed up. At 9 weeks we found out it was twins.... the MW said that explained the really bad symptoms (although some women get it bad with singles too),
Try sea sickness bands for the sickness (these helped me loads) and lots of water for the headahces.... hope you feel better soon!

The only tips I can offer is sucking on ice cubes really helped me and a flat fizzy drink in the morning. I avoided tea like the plague as that was a real thrower upper ! I know some girls really found the travel sickness wrist bands you can buy from places like Boots really helped. Personally I found that not letting myself get hungry was key so I always had a small snack with me that I would nibble throughout the day.
Hopefully for you it will end hunny, it did for me and I am now finally enjoying my pregnancy !
I hope you feel better soon babes, if necessary though go and see your GP for some time off as sometimes the simplest cure is just sleeping !!
