does morning sickness come and go..or sometimes subside early?

[~Trish~]

With DS2 and this pregnancy, my worst sickness ended at week 9. But it is also very normal for it to come and go, maybe to give you a bit of a break! Apparently from week 10 onwards your placenta starts to kick in and your hormones start to settle down (therefore you feel less sick, etc.). I think my placenta must start kicking in earlier

I am feeling a bit calmer about it now thanks... I am just such a worrier after losses last year

My m/s with DD was between 6-9 weeks, by 10 weeks I was fine.

With DS I was sick as a dog from 6 - 14 weeks. There's a very wide variation, and for alot of women (like me) it can even vary hugely between different pregnancies.

Don't worry

i think it's very normal for it to settle before the end of the 1st tri - that's what happened to me...and then just when i got used to it being gone (following my initial panic!), it would come back - but just for a day. usually on sundays - just for a few weeks. so strange!

so far i've found that it's normal to worry about just about everything (well, i hope it is!) - why are my boobs so sore, why aren't they so sore today, why don't i feel more sick, does my tummy feel different today...

Sarah, that is definately how I am!!

I completely understand Possums! I'm the same - worrying about everything and only feeling happy, but miserable, when I feel sick and tired! LOL!

My sickness started about a week ago and it comes and goes throughout the day. I haven't thrown up as yet but I feel like I have a severe hangover when it kicks in. Right now I feel ok but that's cause I juts bought a ridiculous amount of food from the cafe at my work and have temporarily filled up on a cheese toastie and a ginger beer - yum. Before that I was close to hurling! Food seems to settles things for me but if I leave my run too late, nothing works! It really does swap and change from day to day though.

As for my BB's, they come and go too! Sometimes they're really sore, especially in the evenings when I take off my bra to go to bed. Othertimes they feel normal and I find myself squeezing them to make them hurt! Ah, the joys of pregnancy!!
