I am now 18 weeks pregnant and had morning sickness right from the start. I was hoping that it would start to ease off by now but when I just thought it was going away it comes back bad. I have been taking Wafers since I was about 7 weeks pregnant they aren't the cheapest but it seems to be the only thing that stops me for vomiting. I still get a bit sickness feeling and don't seem to be able to eat much when it happens but at least I can keep my food down. Hot chips, toast with vegimite, saladas biscuits seem to work for me alot. Some days I was vomiting up to 4 - 6 times a day now it might be only 1 - 2 times at day. If I wake up in the morning feeling good I try not to take the wafers, as my specialist said then at least you will know when the morning sickness is wearing off. But I can go now for 1 1/2 days and then get a bad dose.

I am so over the morning sickness and all the rest that goes with pregnancy like bad constipation etc. I just want to get to a point which I can start enjoying been pregnant and really enjoy food again.

At the end of it all it will be worth the whole thing and we will have a little baby in our arms and probably wont even remember the sickness etc anymore.

:hugs: I know how you feel. I had Hyperemesis Gravidarum with this pregnancy, i struggled to keep water down most days. I was on The wafers too (Zofran).Towards the end they werent working so i stopped taking them and just put up with the sickness. It stopped completely by about 24-26wks (im 30wks now) Fingers crossed it stops for you soon. I have no advice apart from just keep doing what you are doing and try to make yourself as comfortable as possible.

I threw up every day (often several times a day) with both of my pregnancies, throughout the whole thing. It's so awful, I feel for u. But I promise it will all be worth it when u get to hold ur little baby. I would like to have another, so it must be worth it! =)

Keep ur chin up, and it could still settle down just try to roll with it if u can. Some of us are just really unlucky when it comes to the sickness. Good luck for the rest of ur hopefully sickness-free pregnancy! =) Fingers crossed for u.
