Up until today I was just dry heaving and experiencing nausea. This morning I vomited twice until there was nothing left in my stomach. I cancelled my shift (it was extra), brought DS to dayhome and I'm going to be in bed sick all day. I am absolutely unimpressed. Still have continuous nausea, extreme exhaustion and was up 3 times to pee in the night. Not doing well at all...
8 weeks tomorrow and symptoms have really decreased. Still have a lot of food aversions (I.e anything healthy!) and the boobs are sore on and off. As long as I eat all the carbs all the time it keeps the queasiness at bay. Yes I've been pregnant 3x before this and no I've never had much morning sickness and yes I have had 2 healthy pregnancies but still here I am panicking. I am counting down the days until my us next week!
I just want sleep. I've been working from home and on pelvic rest and restricted activity since the bleeding episode last wednesday. Today is my first day back in the office. It is 1030 am and I cannot keep my eyes open, let alone concentrate. I'm tired and nauseated and unfocused. I even went to bed at 830 last night and slept relatively well... ugh....
I feel so gross, DS and I both caught DH's cold. On top of that I'm nauseous and I know I should eat but I really don't want to. Trying not to throw up the Tylenol I just took. Man I wish I could use a decongestant but my dr said Sudafed isn't recommended in the first trimester blah!
5w1d, boobs are hurting a lot less the past two days, which is freaking me out. I also peed on one more stick a couple days ago and the line was lighter than it had been last week. Also freaking me out (I have vowed to stop peeing on sticks). This is the day I lost my last pregnancy, so I'm super paranoid I'm going in for a first beta test today and then again next week. Hoping the numbers look good.
I cannot fathom another month of this nausea. Every time I see a mother I think, "How did she survive it? I had no idea it was going to be this tough. How are you ladies surviving this sick and tired feeling?
I've got the pressure point bands for my wrists which haven't done anything yet, I've been taking 3 rounds of 25mg of B6, and I am eating small meals. I tired the unisom thing but I have never felt more drugged in my life (couldn't get out of bed for 20 hours) so that is a no go.
Sorry to be negative Nancy - but how are you all dealing? I seriously think I may have to check myself into a mental hospital before the week is up!
A lot of weeping, ignoring nutritional guidelines, and self-loathing over unavoidable laziness? My mom had no MS, so I was unprepared the first time, and it's worse this time. At the moment, I nap as soon as DH gets home for as long as my stomach allows.
I drank a cup of caffeinated chai tea yesterday and of course thought nothing of it since it doesn't have that much caffeine. It actually helped my stomach feel a lot better. But then yesterday evening when my nausea was still better and I started to get cramps I immediately boarded the crazy train and thought I MUST have done some damage.
My logical brain knows that it was minimal caffeine and if something is wrong, that definitely didn't cause it. But my crazy train brain, on the other hand...
I'll join in! I'm SO sick. I'm 7+3 and have been nauseous since 4w. I was sick from 8w-birth with my son. I'm hoping it gets better with this one, as the diclectin isn't helping so much. It doesn't help that I'm a nurse so I see/smell all kinds of gross things in a day.
Oh lord, this is terrible. With only a slight bit of nausea in the
morning (quickly quelled by a piece of bread), it seems the pregnancy
God's have decided that they will make my uterus feel like its being
stretched like children's silly putty. Nothing seems to help! It comes
and goes...looks like i'm living in yoga pants until this subsides.
Anyone else having this "pain"?
I have this and my boobs hurt so bad and feel sort of like water balloons.
Other than sore breasts and tired, I did not have any other real symptoms until exactly the 7 week mark...then bam! Since Saturday, it has been a real roller coaster...nausea most of the day, exhausted no matter how much sleep I get, smells totally turn me off, nothing sounds good when I try to think of eating and then the other day...out of nowhere...I started crying in front of my boss. The more horrified I became, the harder I cried. He could not leave my office fast enough. I have not told anyone at work that I am pregnant yet, but this cat might be out of the bag. So basically, I have spent this week trying not to puke, cry or fall asleep at my desk.
But naturally, I am overjoyed and am just counting down the days until the first U/S...8 days!!!
Headache, raspberry craving (which is super convenient since they cost about a million dollars for a box with all of 20 in it...) aaaannnd...otherwise good.
Super excited because I have to go to the "big city" tomorrow for work...which means McDonald's for lunch. I'M SO EXCITED TO EAT FAST FOOD!
I've been really good the last couple days eating salads for lunch and with dinner so I DESERVE it lol
Does anyone else get carsick now when they didn't used to? I could barely keep it together for my 20 minute cab ride home last night and I was always the girl who could read in the back seat! I have a 5+ hour drive tomorrow for my friend's wedding and I really don't know how I'm going to deal...

I puked my guts out on a 3 hour car drive on Saturday. Worst nausea and vomiting of my life. Of course, I normally get somewhat nauseous in the car .
Dizzy, nauseous, grumpy, and so damn tired. I just want to sit here and cry but noooo I have to be PRODUCTIVE.
I tried calling my mom to get some sympathy. Ha! She just babbles some junk about the beautiful struggle of being a carrier of life. I rolled my eyes so hard it hurt.

I read in one of my pregnancy books that for some people symptoms (specifically nausea) decrease around 9 weeks... So maybe if you are feeling a decrease in symptoms, it's just your body's natural time!

I haven't gotten very far reading this thread, but I'm hoping someone can answer this for me...
I'm a STM but it's been 2+ yrs and I don't remember.
Is it normal to have a slight CM discharge? It's a clearish thickness. Very slight.
Also, my upper abs are tender to the touch. Anyone experiencing that?
