InLove2009, I am finally feeling better at 14 weeks. 12 wasn't much better for me. Of course now I have developed a cold or something but even that is better than the constant nausea. Also feeling movement which started about 13 weeks.

I'm feeling a little better, but still almost throw up when I brush my teeth and have my food aversions. I'm hoping that clears up in the next couple of weeks. I'm in week 14 now.

I CANNOT WAIT for 12-13 weeks.  I am really hoping to be feeling better at some point soon.  I'm really feeling useless and not myself these days.  Having trouble working a full week, taking care of family etc.  I bought a bunch of prepackaged stuff for kids lunches so those can be made quickly and have been doing nothing at home... not like me at all.

Mine's starting to get better, but then I get worried because I've heard if it gets better, it could be a sign of a miscarriage. What has recently gotten much worse is my sciatic pain! I had to use a cane at work today.

Thursday was the best day I've had in months. I got so much done!! And then 10pm the magic hour struck and I was down for the count. Thursday was 13w 3d. Yesterday I was on three airplanes and up at 3am so it was a little rougher but I think I'm out of the woods. I remember this from my last two that got this far... Like magic... one day nasty the next rainbows and unicorns.

I'm still waiting for my rainbows and unicorns (and so is hubby! LOL). I'm 13 wks and 3 days and while I'm having some improvement, it's definitely not gone yet.

I am at about 12.5 weeks and definitely feeling better, but still not quite like myself. Huge breakthroughs this week though: I can cook a little, stand to be in the kitchen and have been exercising with pregnancy yoga DVDs. (All of this a dramatic improvement over first trimester.) I haven't thrown up in 4 days! I still feel tired a lot though. And I'm relaxing as much as possible for that reason!  I hope everyone feels better soon.

i am just now at 12 weeks and i had been feeling pretty good with low or nonexistant nausea for a few weeks.   but in week 11 it started back up a little and i am feeling some nausea today.  ugggh, i am glad baby is healthy but i am a bit emotional about feeling good/bad/good/bad........  i am praying that this week is smoother and a gentler ride...

Nope still sick! I was cleaning up cat puke off the floor this morning and I gagged and wasnt expecting to actually puke, well I did. I ran to the sink to finish and when I went back to clean up my puke I ended up doing even more, it was so funny and awful, lol

My nausea went away for 2 weeks and it is back now. Am on OTC medication, not really helping that much. Doc said I have candida so wonder if that can cause nausea? No fun! 14 weeks already, want this over already!

[lolliegee]

I'm finally starting to get some relief. I'm 14 weeks and my days are mostly okay, but still feel nauseous at night and in the morning. I'm so tired of gagging when I cough or sneeze or just at some random time. At least I'm not throwing up and am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

DanielNathan, I'm curious what you're doing for the candida. We're dealing with yeast in my family (several different forms on three, maybe four of us, definitely points to candida overgrowth).

[danielnathan]

Well, currently I am going to be using a ointment that I need to insert into my vagine...horrible, and then I need to look at my diet. Look at this website, looks interesting...http://www.mannaplus.com/Health/Candida.aspx

[lolliegee]

Fortunately for me, it's not internal (I feel for you, those are no fun!), but just stubborn rashes that don't want to go away for me, and yeasty diaper rashes for my little one. I was hoping for something that could be taken internally so I could treat our whole family so we don't keep spreading it to each other. I'll check out that site. Thanks!
