When did your m/s get better?
I am 10 weeks and CANNOT wait to finally start feeling better! Some ladies tell me that theirs started getting better toward the end of their first trimester (week 9-12), and others (usually those who had twins) tell me theirs went well into the 2nd trimester. When did you start feeling better? And was it a gradual thing, or did you wake up one morning and it was gone?

Re: When did your m/s get better?
Everyone is different, but for me between weeks 10 and 12 the morning sickness really started to ease up. By 12 weeks I had barely any.
GOOD LUCK! I really think that was the worst part of my pregnancy, once you make it though that things really are a lot easier.
Mine didn't get better until around week 16, it was a gradual thing for me. Although it did come back some in the 3rd trimester.

There is NOTHING worse than m/s. I am so sorry this is your time for it. But it will pass and you will love your 2nd trimester! The funny thing with me is with my first daughter I had it right up until week 14 and it was bad bad bad. This time around I had it from week 6 until week 10 and it wasn't nearly as bad. I thought this was strange b/c I am carrying 2 this time around. I was convinced I was having boys b/c they say m/s isn't as bad w/boys. But I'm having girl/boy twins...so I just got reallllllllllllly lucky this time around. I hope yours goes away very soon!!!! You will be a new woman when it does!
Mine was still going strong at 13 weeks, at that OB appt. they had to put me on IV fluids because I was severely dehydrated. That is the day I started on Zofran. It was wonderful, it didn't make the m/s go away completely, but really took the edge off and I was able to keep food and fluids down. At 16w3d I woke up that morning and felt fabulous and I didn't need to take a pill. Never took a pill after that. So for me it was not gradual.
I remember feeling noticeably better at around 12 weeks, and then it got better each week so that around 16 weeks, I remember feeling almost normal again.
However, I haven't felt completely 100% the whole pregnancy..it sort of comes and goes, on a very minor level.
I hope you feel better soon!
Mine was really bad until the end of week 13..then weeks 14 & 15 I got sick 3 days...by 16 weeks it was gone.
Its the only thing I remember well from my pregnancy!
Unfortunately, I had really bad m/s right up until the 5th month....I got a couple months of feeling pretty good and it came back in the third trimester (but not as bad). This was the worst part of the pregnancy forsure. I hope it starts to get better for you soon!
