I don't think this damn thing will let me do a poll, but I was wondering when your M/S started? (I know the medical answer -- I want real mom answers.) I'm about 4 wks 4 days and have only had sore boobs and some crying, but I just tried to eat lunch and halfway through my bean burrito I got quesy and had to stop. Seems a little early but I know everyone's different.
Re: When did your M/S start?

My morning sickness (a misnomer, as it was all-day sickness) started around Week 6. I am now a few days shy of Week 12. The nausea is still there, but not as strong. I will share a few tips of how I handled it: Keep saltines by your bedside. Although they do not sound appealing as you're waking up, it helped me to munch on a couple before getting out of bed. Take your prenatal vitamin in the evening, after dinner. I found that I didn't have enough food in my stomach, even after breakfast, to handle the strength of my vitamin. Eat throughout the day. Small snacks every 1-2 hours helps. A granola bar here. An apple there. Keep eating.
I feel for you. The nausea was so bad, sometimes I didn't think I could make it to work. A few dry heaves or yaks in the toilet later, I was out the door.
The best news is that the nausea means your hormones are kicking into high gear. Good luck!

We're one and done!
5 weeks, 5 days
And those of you who still have it at 12 weeks are bumming me out. This is so unpleasant, it's going to be a long 6 weeks!
