I'm really not sure what to choose here.. I've been pregnant more than once (this is my 6th time) and I've had varying degrees of morning sickness with each one.

With my first, it was bad but not debilitating. (perhaps because I was really young)

With my second, I had a few bouts of throwing up and then was fine.

With my third, nothing... I think I had one day of nausea.

With my fourth, I felt like I was dying from the moment she was conceived. I was sick for weeks and weeks. I had thought my first was bad, it was nothing compared to what she cast upon me. lol

My fifth, very little but the pregnancy ended in miscarriage at 9 weeks. I had some mild nausea but at 7 weeks it abruptly ended, I knew something wasn't right.

This pregnancy, I had some nauseousness and a few bouts of vomiting but nothing too intense.

I picked other because I was on drugs and able to work. If not on drugs I would have been hospitalized, it lasted 26 weeks, however the side effects from the zofran landed me in the ER.

As for baby #2 - much WORSE, if I was working and on drugs, probably would have missed a lot of work. I didn't throw up that much, but I felt so much sicker and was unable to get out of bed. I can't describe it, but if I ate I wanted to vomit because the pain in my stomach after I ate - not heartburn, pain! But I am feeling much better at 21 weeks than I did last pregnancy.
And again, side effects from the zofran landed me in the ER again.

So no more kids after this, if it keeps getting worse, I can't imagine going through the pain again.
