I had severe vomiting and nausea for the first four minths of my pregnancy and then it went away, but not completely.
Once in a while, I vomit. Now I am in the sixth month.
I even lost 4 kgs of weight in the first 3 months of prgnancy
Don't worry, it will get reduced from the fourth month onwards.
All the very best

With my son I found that perfume set it off. Other than that I was fine.
With my daughter I had 2 prescriptions. First I took Xanax (SP) but it was too pricey for long term so I switched to Phenergan. I still got sick a couple times a day but I was able to maintain pretty a normal day (for the sake of my son). I was on medicine until I was about 32 weeks when I was finally feeling better.
I also sipped coke all day and sucked on peppermints when I was out. You need to find what works for you.
From most of the girls I know I would guess you are having a girl ;)

My pregnancy was so not normal! I'm so scared to be pregnant again because I know it will be so different!
I never had morning sickness, rarely nauseous. I was a little hungrier than normal, but nothing that would alarm me. If I wouldn't have guessed that I was pregnant, I wouldn't have known until the baby started kicking!
I didn't gain any weight (and even then I only gained 2 lbs the entire pregnancy and lost 25 right after!) until the 7th month and was barely showing. I never had heart burn or anything like that. No cravings.
The only thing I had was a very sharp pain in my lower right back and of course lower back pain. But all in all I had a relatively "easy" pregnancy. I know my next one is probably going to be awful, haha!

I really wish I could help you on this one, but I am the super rare type. With my son I only got a bit nauseous at night and with certain smells but never got physically sick or any morning sickness at all. Im 6 months now and I only got nauseous a couple times due to my increased blood flow through my body, but I've been fine. Good luck to you :-)
