Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi there, don't feel so bad. I know of a lot of women who didn't just feel miserable because they were sick but plain didn't like being pregnant. I personally didn't understand this and thought it impossible until I found myself in your situation! I'm 12 weeks pregnant and constantly, tired, feeling sick, being sick, I'm put off by so many foods it's unreal. I don't eat even a third of the amount I used to and everyone tells me I'm losing weight! I can't help it, I feel horrible so much that I can't eat, when I don't eat often it makes the sickness worse so I have to force myself to eat! It never ends. It eases up now and then but never goes away. I know how you feel, it isn't so nice. The only way I keep sane is by talking to the baby (yes, I'm strange like that). Now and then I talk to baby and say "mummy feels horrible right now, what are you doing in there?", it reminds me that there really is a little someone in there and that it will all be worth it in the end. It doesn't seem like the sickness is going away though, it lasts all day, all I can do is eat crackers and talk to baby : ( I only hope it gets better soon, I really hate feeling this way, this is my first too and already I don't think I want to do this again. I can't wait to meet my little one but right now, I can't wait to start enjoying my pregnancy. Apparently this feeling can last into the fourth month but at 12 weeks we should start feeling better - I'm 12 weeks and 2 days now so I'm certainly hoping to start feeling better. Chin up! Baby loves you XXX

Hi there. I too was feeling so incredibly sick, tired and depressed from 6 weeks of pregnancy(this is my 4th). I didn't realise it at the time but I was also clinically depressed. I started antidepressant medication (I have never experienced depression B4) and although I continued with the morning sickness and tiredness until about week 14, the fact that I was not feeling so down made life a little easier. Just hang in there. I know it is an old cliche, but your beautiful baby will be worth all the 'suffering' that pregnancy brings and you WILL forget. Afterall, I thought that we were going to stop at 2 kids and now we are expecting our 4th!!!

Hi, I a totally with you. My due date is on the 10th Feb, and now I am almost in 12th weeks, but still sick like a dog. My doc prescribed diclectin since week 6 and I have been living with it since then. I had to refill the pill today, as I just don't see an end of it at all. :( With the pill, I can at least get the food down, though they just taste awful and may come out any minute. Worst thing is that I used to have bad heart burn at childhood, and now it just come back because of the nausea and vomitting. I had to take tum and gaviscon everyday. Poor me, now constipation is added to the list too. I hate to get any more medication as I felt guilty to take them when I know there is a little one inside who doesn't like it. But what can we do? Hope, hope, really hope this will be all over soon, so I can start enjoy my pregnancy.
