Anyone getting sick again around 20 weeks?

So my morning sickness and all the other crummy symptoms I had at the beginning pretty much went away around week 13 or 14.  But since Monday I've been feeling like crap again.  My stomach hurt and I had diarhea (sorry for the tmi) from Monday til Wednesday.  Now that's all gone but I've had a nausea/heartburn/tight chest feeling all week.  It seems to get worse as the day goes on.  I also feel super hungry starting in the afternoon and going til bedtime, but because I don't feel good it's hard to eat.  My lower abdomen has been super tight and hard to stretch out.  I don't know if baby is just going through a growth spurt or if I seriously need to up my fluid or calorie intake or what.  Has anyone else been feeling crummy again all of a sudden?

  • I've been feeling the exact same way this whole week.  I am right there with you on everything you just listed.

  • I'm not as far long as you but my m/s has never left.  Eased up yes but I just threw up 3 times yesterday  :(
  • Yes. Week 20 has been rough. I'm not sure if it's because I'm passing kidney stones or if it's just pure m/s again (all day long). But the stones do sometimes make me nauseated.

    When I was at the doctor on Tuesday, she said that the baby will really start getting bigger (packing on fat) from now on, so I will start stretching more. I've noticed more pains when I pee, like pressure after my bladder is empty, and when I stand up sometimes I have to pause in mid-stance because I get sharp pains. I'm just more achy in general. I know that our uteruses are growing like crazy right now.

  • Yep, the sickness to my stomach has come back.  I'm a little earlier than you tho.  But it's back not as bad as it was tho thank god.

  • Yes I feel the same way too. I'm 20 weeks today and I feel like it comes and goes, but I heard its from the baby moving around. I have a weak stomach so I was sick the entire time for the 1st 14 weeks. I have been feeling the tight and hard belly too, I think the baby is just growing and the muscles stretching out.
  • I thought it was just me being weird.  It started right back up for me this week when I hit 19 weeks and has been bad all week.  I hope it leaves soon!
  • I had full on morning sickness until last week.  This week finally it seems done and I have crazy cravings and am super hungry.  My mother said that she was sick through week 20 with me and through week 16 with my sister.  She also told me that food never really tasted like it should until after she delivered.  I think everyone is different and a lot of people feel sick for a lot longer than average. 
  • im only 18 weeks but ive been feeling GREAT and last night i couldnt sleep bc my stomach felt so upset and was just very uncomfortable! im liking the energy feeling better weeks ALOT more hehe
  • Glad to know I'm not alone.  Thanks for all the replies!
