I know it takes a lot to grow a baby but......

these side affects are killing me! Nausea, vomitting, bloating, indigestion, heartburn, constipation, gas, diarrhea, headaches, dizziness and fatigue. My goodness!

Im 13 weeks today but from 6-9 weeks it was terrible. I thought I was dying. I was sick 24/7 and my body went into starvation mode and I had ketones in my urine plus throwing up blood. Thankfully it seems to have passed now coz I couldn't have coped had it lasted any longer. I never remember being this bad through my other pregnancies. Xxx

This is my first pregnancy and I'm 16 weeks already. I thank God so far the only symptom I had the first two months was overly tired and sleepy. The funny thing is that who actually is feeling pregnant is my husband. He started feeling dizzy and nausea Every morning. He is the one having the food cravings and then having heartburn. I hope when is time for delivery he gets the pains too.

The earlier parts of my pregnancy, I was going to the doctor because I thought I had the flu. The doctor diagnosed me with gastritis b/c of all the stomach issues, then to find out I'm pregnant. I was shocked that I was having all these issues from being pregnant. I'm a FTM and I've known women to have nausea and vomiting but I didn't know it was going to be like this.

This is my last baby (4). This is by far the worst pregnancy EVER. I had nausea BAD for 6.5-7 months. I am 34.6 weeks and I am still have the occasional nausea. I feel like she is making a point, sciatica, low back pain, hip pain sometimes I feel like I cant walk. And forget about long distances. I was so active with my 3rd, I was hooing I would still be able to run and exercise like I had been. Nope she had other plans. I just keep counting down to the date. I kjow at the end of this I'll have a healthy baby and the lower parts of my body will work again

I described mine as feeling the worst ive ever felt in my life, very dramatic I know. Almost 20 weeks now and apart from acid reflux I feel so well and happier. It'll get better in a little while.

You can ask doctor for reglan to help nausea... and tums for heartburn... sorry but may last whole time on and off but usually calms down 2nd trimester.

The joys of pregnancy :D
I was hoping I'd miss the morning sickness this time around but I'm starting to feel sick in the tummy.
