How long did your m/s last?

Blueyed228 · October 2012

Im just curious as to when the m/s started to calm down for you girls. Ive been on Zolfran for a few weeks now (they gave it to me initially to help with the nausea from my OHSS) and i dont feel like its getting any better.

Im up to 3 pills a day and Im having a hard time with it still.

Around 10 weeks mine calmed down, and it stopped at 13 weeks. Hope you start feeling better soon!

With both pregnancies, until delivery.

I had HG and ended up getting a PICC line,a zofran pump and being hospitalized. If it isn't improving let them know so they can try other things.

Feel better soon!

I do. Im not able to eat much of a variety, but I do try to eat something every few hours.

mine slowed down at 13 weeks but didnt really disappear until 16. mine was bad until 12 weeks! i hope you get some relief soon!

I just threw up 2 days ago.

But...I feel so much better then in the beginning of the pregnancy. I couldn't even go on the computer without feeling sick. Maybe 16-17 weeks I started feeling better? Hope you feel better soon! (I still take 1/2 zofran a day to keep the edge off though.)

Sour candies (preggie pop drops and sweet tarts) and lemon ice pops provided temporary relief for me sometimes.

Mine was really bad until about 13 weeks and we even entertained the zofran pump. I was on 24mg of zofran a day. I still struggle with it some days but about 16 weeks it really calmed down. Now I have on average, one really bad day per week with small bouts of nausea here and there. It is so much more manageable than it was in the first tri though! I still take about 4mg of zofran in the morning just to keep breakfast down. If I can do that I am generally pretty good through the day.

I will say tiny meals every couple of hours, bland foods, eating what my body wanted etc really helped. The important thing is that you keep something down and as my doctor told me it didn't matter what as at this time your prenatal is plenty for the LO's.

I really hope you are one of the "lucky" ones who's passes around 13 to 16 weeks and remains gone!

I started to feel better around 13 weeks. By 16 weeks I felt great, no m/s at all.

lovemygs · October 2012

18 weeks

Switzerland87 · October 2012

Mine lasted til about 17-18 weeks.

flgator · October 2012

18-20 weeks for all 3 pregnancies (including my singleton ones). I still have some issues w/smells, esp. changing diapers, but it's not as bad as the beginning. hope you feel better soon.

I had mine from week 6 through week 16. I was on Zofran, but nothing helped! Hang in there.

Fancy3Face · October 2012

Mine was bad (throwing up a couple times a day, despite zofran) from week 5-26. After that it was just nausea most of the day. So, it lasted the entire pg, but it was more manageable by the third tri.

I don't think that's normal, though.

Reilly626 · October 2012

Mine went so long- double the hormones- 20 weeks!

lunatwo · October 2012

MIne lasted the entire pregnancy, unfortunately. I vomited every morning and every night when I brushed my teeth.

lynn0926 · October 2012

Week 8 was the absolute worst for me. It stopped around week 10 and came back I think week 14 for that whole week. Hang in there, it really sucks.

snoangel79 · October 2012

Hey!! I haven't seen you in a while and I check here every once in a while( we were on Boston Brides together <:, with the whole open bar bs) Congrats on two!!! My MS lasted till 14 unfortunately and got real bad around 9 >:

sweetsugarmama · October 2012

another here who had it the whole pg (with both pregnancies). Every time I refilled my zofran script the pharmacy employees would make bets on wether I'd need another one. No fun at all, but that's unusual. Hopefully yours will get better soon.

The only advice I have is to occasionally try what didn't work before. Some weeks seltzer water helped, other weeks lemons did and then wouldn't the day after that.

Also I took half a unisom and a b6 nightly, supposedly that was similar to phenagran (sp?) and it helped me greatly. I wondered if it was because I was still sick and skipped a night. The next morning was 10x worse!
