Weeks 5-9 were terrible. I had to go in to urgent care for fluids and Zofran during week 7, because I could not keep anything down. However, I'm in week 11 and at least am not losing everything I eat/drink, and am starting to have small bursts of energy (which is a huge improvement).
I can't understand how some women are able to do this over and over. My husband is one of 8! Do people forget how miserable they were feeling?
I'm one of seven and have no idea how my mum did it - I felt so awful at the beginning was promising not to have any more... my mum said the memory fades after a bit.. till you get pregnant again and hell yeah it comes back to you!
Definitely week 6 to 9! Around week 9 I finally gave into nausea medication and I was able to get out of bed more often. I was really sick and my dr had me on bed rest from 6.3 weeks until almost 8 weeks. I was a bear to be around. Week 11 was its own kind of tough because I had significant nausea coupled with major hunger. I'm in my 12th week now and feel almost normal again(knock on wood).
This is my third and I always do forget. I also have a hard time really remembering how terrible having a newborn is. My husband doesn't forget. My pregnancies are relatively easy though. I have only thrown up once or twice during the course of all three. I always forget what the fatigue and general blahness feels like until I get pregnant.
Weeks 9-now....I am exhausted....and this little plum of mine has issues with some of my bland food choices....so the vomiting (morning sickness) still hasn't went away.... This is my 2nd baby and I never felt like this with her....it was easy peazy....every pregnancy is different....I am anxious to see if this is a boy though....that is what I am thinking.....but....??? I am 13 weeks tomorrow....my Dr said that at 14 weeks the symptoms "usually" fade away....we will see about that... Fingers crossed!
It seems like at least 1 day out of every week so far I just feel terrible. then there are other days where I forget I'm even pregnant because the symptoms are completely gone.
Around weeks 6-9 were the worst for me. No vomiting but plenty of nausea and completely overwhelmingly exhaustion. I'm almost 14 weeks now. I get minor bits of nausea here and there but typically only in the morning until I've eaten breakfast. My only issues now are back pain, bloating, and being tired (but not so exhausted as before).
