hi

I am 9 weeks 3 days today and my nausea has gotten better every day from around 8.5weeks. I still get nauseated if I get too hungry and at nighttime I feel worse.

it is different than my first pregnancy where I only started to feel better at around 12 weeks. maybe it is a girl this time. :)))

Hi Melissa,
I started to feel better around 8.5 weeks.  I still have the occasional gag here and there, but nothing like it was. I only feel it now if I have an empty stomach.  Before 8.5 weeks I was really dizzy and pukey non stop.  I am 10 weeks today, still really tired, boobs hardly hurt now, and instead of nausea I am starving.  I also have been getting headaches.  
My doc told me HCG gets at it's highest somewhere between 8-10 weeks.  After that, they decrease a little, level off, and placenta starts to take over hormone production.  That is why by the end of the 3rd month you should feel great.  
Try not to worry... I know I should take my own advice HAHA but chances are that things are just fine.  
I have a 10 week ultrasound tomorrow.  I keep telling myself that everything is going to be great and just because I feel better doesn't mean anything.  I will let you know how it goes.
