    First time morning sickeness concerns

    Hi I hope for some reassurances from other mums- I'm 5 & bit weeks pregnant at the start of the week I had very noticeable morning sickeness & "felt" pregnaant - now I have nothing at all expect a little bit of naeusa after I take my multi vitiamns. Is it normal for morning sickness to come & go?

    Congratulations on your pregnancy tealmalchin!

    Yes, it's completely normal, especially this early as your hormone levels are rising. Try not to worry

    Hi there!
    Having never been pregnant I'm probably not the best person to be answering, but I do work in an office with a continual stream of pregnant ladies!!
    I do know that a few of my friends have had practically no morning sickness at all in the first 5-6 weeks, only to have it hit with vengeance a few weeks later! One girl does have a few good days, only to spend the next week vomiting!
    I guess the important thing to remember is that every pregnancy is different- some sail through with no issues, while some vomit for the whole nine months!!
    Good luck!

    Totally normal! With this pregnancy I'd have 3 days of horrible sickness, then feel brilliant for 2 days only to be hit with another day of sickness, then 3 days of feeling fab and so on, totally unpredictable until about 7-8 weeks when I just felt rotten all the time until the 2nd trimester..

    Lots to look forward to! Enjoy the days you feel great! Good luck!

    PS try taking your vitamins at night, right before bed. They can be hard to stomach during the day!
