How different was your morning sickness for each pregnancy?
I can't believe I'm going to ask this. I should, I DO know better but hey, it's kind of fun - speculating that is
I had awful morning sickness (24/7 nausea) until 14 weeks with DD and finally felt human again at 16 weeks. This pregnancy I felt the same, maybe a bit worse (I took Maxolon daily for a few weeks), but my MS started earlier at 5 wks and began easing off last week - 10 weeks. I still feel nauseous at times but it's so much more manageable. I'm definitely on the mend Of course some of those who know I'm pregnant have already started saying it must be a boy but it did make me wonder how other women have felt for different pregnancies and what sex the babies were.
So please, entertain me! How different was your MS? Or was it the same? Did you have the opposite sex or same sex? Did worse MS mean a girl or a boy?
i have had 2 girls and for both pregnancies i had horrid vomit morning sickness 24/7 until about 7 months...... i was hoping second time around it would be different and i would be able to enjoy being pregnant....NOPE.....
mine have all been the constant all day sickness - the vomitting has increased with the last two but I think some of that is because I've become a bit more relaxed about it and just let it happen rather than trying to stop it with #3 I vomitted every day or two, with this one I've vomitted more than once a day. My first went to 12 weeks, my second 15 and my third 17 and beyond. With this one I had it up until wk 12 and had a major stomach bug in wk 12 and then it was gone (other than the occassional gag on phlem Sorry for TMI). Mine have all been boys.
Both my pregnancies have been boys and my MS has been very different. First time it was really severe and lasted till 28 weeks (almost hospitalised, on Zofran, off work for 6 weeks, no housework). And this pregnancy I was pleasantly suprised - it was still pretty bad till 14 weeks, but since then I've been fine! My theory is that my body was more used to the hormones 2nd time round and also I think not working was a great help. So I don't subscribe to the gender/MS myth. : )
With my son I had hardly any morning sickness just felt nauseous now and then.
With this pregnancy I had awful ms and was on maxolon for it.. It has eased a bit but it interesting to see what sex this bub will be! I hoping for a girl
With DD1 i didn't really get it - I was nausea's a few times, and I threw up if I ate Pizza...
But with DD2 I was sooo soooo sick for the whole nine months! I was trying to take the kids to school each morning and there is 4 traffic lights from home to school - I stopped and threw up at ever red light. I was on maxalon and this is part of the reason I am scared about going for another.
Two girls here and two very different experiences with MS.
DD1 I felt a bit off and would get sudden burst of feeling like throwing up. I loved meat and when I started showing I was very high straight away. My face and hair were the best they have been in years too.
DD2 I was constantly sick and vomited a few times. I could not stand to cook and the thought of meat turned me green. When I started showing I was low and stayed low the whole pregnancy. My hair felt horrible all the time and I got pimples. Everyone was convinced I was going to be told boy because they were so opposite.
I asked this same question when preg with my DD (agree speculating is fun! )
First preg (DS) 24/7 nausea for 12 weeks, occassional vomit. All good from 16 weeks, no nausea at all.
Second preg (DD) 24/7 nausea and vomiting for 24 weeks, hospitalised to be rehydrated, on maxalon and cyclizine until 24 weeks, continued frequent nausea and occassional vomiting until 36 weeks
With both boys I had hg, vomiting until I had to be admitted to hospital. Countless medications. Lasted until 20 weeks. But with dd, only mild nausea, occasional vomit, no medications, no hospital. Ended at 12 weeks. It was so different.
I have to say, although I do find this fun, I don't buy into the gender myths either but it would appear SO many people around me do! I can't believe the 'oh it must be a....' has started already!
These stories are great, I have some ammo if required now I was so over everyone telling me I was having a boy last time, because of all my signs and symptoms and the way I carried, that I wanted to put our PA on the 5pm news as our baby was in fact a girl! I'd have been more than happy with either sex but man are all those 'it must be...' comments annoying and I was so sick of the boy ones!
DS - started maybe around 6 weeks, never actually vomited, felt sick when I got up of a morning but it usually tapered off after a few hours, think it was gone by end of trimester one, things helped like ginger beer.
This bub - felt off in the tummy before I got my BFP, felt more ill as weeks went on, by 5 or 6 weeks I was vomiting copious amounts most days, nothing took the sick feeling away, couldn't keep down water which is when I had injections to help ease it, nearly 14 weeks & vomit maybe once per week, often feel sick at various times of the the day.
So with DD I didnt get nausea until about 10 weeks and threw up only at night time. and I wouldnt say it was so much as nausea as I just felt sick for a second and immediately puked after. It went on until about 18 weeks
With this PG so far..nausea 24/7....since about 5 weeks
I had MS once or twice a week for 6 weeks with my first girl;
occasionally for two or three weeks with my first boy;
general nausea with my second boy;
and nothing at all, not even nausea with my second girl.
