    Frequent vomiting at 12/13 weeks

    Hi I am in my 12/13th week of my first pregnancy. I started vomiting since week 8 (average 3 times a day), and around a week ago, my vomiting got worse. In the morning at work, from 9 to 1pm, I vomit around every 40-60minutes. I am just wondering is this normal, and any suggestion that may help reduce the vomiting? Thank you in advance!

    llmats... Oh you poor dear! I remember what that was like with DD! Thankfully this time I am not nearly as sick! Yes I do think it is very normal, everyone is different when it comes to m/s, so it may just be slowing down a lot later than the 'usual'. My m/s didn't slow down until around 16 weeks the first time, sorry, I know thats not what you wanted to hear.

    I found peppermint tea to be a great remidy! I'd have one at morning tea and I ALWAYS kept lunch down. Also sometimes apples would be a help with the nausious feeling.

    I hope it's the storm just before the calm for you! Congrats on getting through your first trimester. The second trimester is much more relaxed and so exciting!

    Oh god. I keep thinking 'just 6 more weeks' of ms but maybe not *cry*

    As for reducing vomiting, I am pretty positive that the dr can give you some medication.

    Also, I have always liked Hydralite and Hydralite icy poles when I am vomiting, just to make sure I'm hydrated at least?
