Ok, Im 3 months pregnant. The neasea is ruining my life!! I take diclectin and it stops me from physically vomitting. The nausea is still there and it is extensive. How long did your nausea last and what did you do or take to relieve it?

I think I got sick about twice and that was when I ate cheesecake. I could not eat cheesecake while I was pregnant.

I am only 7 weeks with this pregnancy, I have two other children. With my first it lasted about 6 months! With my second it lasted about 7 months. I am hoping with this one it will go away sooner... =)

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 :-)
