My nausea wasn't too bad (starting week 13 tomorrow) - I've been taking Green Pastures cod liver oil/high vitamin butter oil capsules.  It's supposed to help with morning sickness (at least that's what my husband says), so maybe that's why it wasn't too bad for me?  Worth a try maybe if you're feeling sick.

I'm so tired of feeling bad. Usually days are ok lately, but mornings and evenings are horrible and I just want to lay in bed and do my best not to puke. I threw up fairly frequently around 8-9 weeks but started taking B6 and Unisom and it helps tons, now I just am nauseous... I want to spend time with my husband that doesn't involve me going "I feel like crap." "I'm tired." "Nothing sounds good to eat." "I'm going to lay down."

I also have been spotting the past few days after I have a bowel movement. Its actually bright red blood but stops immediately after. There is residual brown for the rest of the day, but the red is only in the toilet after the bowel movement. I am 90% sure its vaginal and not rectal. Before I got pregnant I would always spot before my period after going poop too. Today its freaking me out. I have my second prenatal appointment Friday so I am hoping things are ok and I'll get some reassurance then. I'm not having cramps, so I am trying to stay hopeful, but today I just want to curl up in bed and cry. Instead I have to go to work.

I'm 12 weeks so I'm hoping I start to feel better soon.

I'm actually feeling better and made dinner tonight. I had a terrible emotional day due to a huge fight with DH. The one day I'm not completely sick and it's beautiful outside! I'm still nauseated with all food smells.

I'm thinking I'm feeling better because I got a b12 shot yesterday. It is really helping in the energy dept. too. So glad I can get these whilst pregnant.

The past few days, I have been feeling a LOT better.  Still tired, but the nausea seems to have stopped. 

[MamaMash]

I'm feeling that too splath. Still really tired, but yesterday and so far today the nausea has been very minimal. 13 weeks tomorrow for me, how far are you? I do have a headache starting today which worries me a little. I hope they don't happen everyday now that my nausea is easing up.

[vc2013]

I started throwing up without even bing nauseous, so I'm making sure only to eat small rations of everything now. At least feeling good during work! But as soon as I get home I'm back to nausea, don't know why.

I've noticed when I have one of my new raging outbreaks, it kind of gets to my stomach.. Immediately. Meaning, worse cramping and stuff. I need to relax more.

I've had a pretty rough day today, more nauseous than usual. Which is annoying since I'm 13 and a half weeks, so you'd think I would be starting to feel better by now! I cannot tell you how much I look forward to feeling normal! I will celebrate that day by taking my daughter for a lovely day out.

Today has been horrible... I woke up nauseous & it has not subsided all day.
I have yet to vomit but have had to run to the bathroom 3 times today
Oh & I totally starting gagging while driving my kid to soccer camp ( he had a PD day today)...that was a first.
I am 10 weeks today & know this is just the icing on the cake ... I have a couple more weeks of m/s to go.
The thought of most food makes my tummy churn (except for bad lunchy snacks/sweets like pudding, & jello...food I would never eat).
Totally weird.

while 12w was great, 13w is kind of horrible. i have been so sick this week. i am ready to turn the corner.... any day now! im ready, babies. the other day i was getting ready for prenatal yoga. i threw up on myself. then i went to yoga and got sick in my mouth during yoga class. it was a personal low point. 

we saw a high-risk OB yesterday who basically said that we would be having these babies by 38w no matter what. our regular OB was more like "well, we want you to have them by 38 w but we will let you go to 40" so i am feeling weird about "changing" my due date to 2 weeks earlier. obviously i know that preterm labor is the biggest threat in multiple pregnancies, but i feel like my pregnancy just got shorter. anyway, i am just having a lot of feelings this week in addition to being sick and tired of being sick and tired. what a precious miracle of life. 

[sarahl918]

mrsandmrs you poor thing!! You are brave for going to yoga even feeling so bad. I feel guilty but I haven't been to Pilates in weeks... I am too afraid of getting sick in class! 

I'm almost 10 weeks, and have been feeling good the last few days but tonight it hit me hard again, plus a headache. Desperate, I finally filled my prescription for Zofran. I thought it might be going away but hearing about all you ladies at 12-13w that are still in the thick of it makes me so nervous!! Here's hoping we all start feeling better soon. 

[chispita]

mrsandmrs - why the change to a high risk OB? (You might have mentioned this already, I'm still catching up with old posts)

[mrsandmrs]

chispita - we're not changing over to a high risk OB. we just had to meet with her for the genetic testing b/c our OB wouldn't do the nuchal scan for twins or the maternit21 test. if everything goes as planned (which is to say totally boring!!) hopefully i will never see the high risk OB again. although, now that i am typing this, i reckon they will probably send me back there for the 20 week anatomy scan, but maybe not. i guess i should ask. i really didn't love the doctor, so hopefully we won't see her much. thx for checking in on me. 

sarah - i really thought after i was sick once i would be OK at yoga. despite that, uh, little problem, the class was really good and helped my RLP a lot. it really took a lot of energy to go. i definitely couldn't have made it last week. you'll go back when you're ready.

Are you in CA? The weather is so amazing right now. I think spring is my favorite time of year!

[nettlesoup]

I hope you start feeling better soon, Mrsandmrs! It really does sound like you're having a rough time.

Yes! We are in Sherman Oaks. It's GORGEOUS today!! Really hope this weather keeps up. :)

Just had my first vomiting after brushing teeth episode. Terrible how easy it is to trigger. it is sooo much worse when there isn't much in your tummy.

[serena76]

Just puked in the shower again, when is this gonna end

[nettlesoup]

Och, sorry to hear you're still having a bad time of the nausea, Serena.

I'm 14 weeks tomorrow and there's still no sign of the nausea going away. Maybe my inlaws are right and it is a boy.

[serena76]

14 weeks and still ill, that's horrible nettle.
My vomiting is a bit sporadic, puked mon/tues/sat but fine rest of the week. It's better than the nausea all day long so I'm hoping its slowly disappearing 🙏
