Sickness

Starting to get really fed up with the constant nausea & sickness 😢 it’s been non stop for 4 weeks (I’m 9+1 now). Got anti sickness meds from the doctor but they made me feel horrible and didn’t stop the sickness. Can barely lift my head off the pillow and just want to lie down all day. I’ve lost 7 pounds - so low on energy. Keep bursting into tears. Feel like the most useless wife and mother to our 16 month old.

I no how you feel I’m 11weeks now and I’m so fed up with feeling sick being sick and dry heaving. I’m just miserable I haven’t been able to enjoy anything over the festive season because im so miserable. I just want to sleep until it’s over xxx

Can relate to this 100% going through the same. Now 11 weeks and very slightly better. I think we need to be kind to ourselves and allow ourselves all the rest we need, it’s not easy !

These guys really helped me when I was experiencing the same… https://pregnancysicknesssupport.org.uk/get-help/what-is-hyperemesis-gravidarum/

Sorry you feel this way. I can completely relate - been awful from 6 weeks and still present at 14. Which anti sickness have you been on? Some may be more effective for you than others x

Go back to the doctors and ask for a different type of anti sickness. There are lots of different ones and my doctor told me that often the first option they get people to try doesn’t work on everyone and they have more success with others. Hoping you start to feel better, I’m also suffering with severe nausea and it’s tough going!

I was going put on anti sickness at around 8 weeks and omg it’s changed my life around. I’m able to enjoy food again. I had lost about 5kg which was worrying. Honestly, grab yourself the antisickness from your midwife and start taking them. I do about 1-2 a day. They do make you a TAD sleepy at the start but you get used to it very quickly.
