Pregnancy

[javabean]

Okay so... all of you that have been pregnant before... do emets have less of a chance of getting morning sickness? My husband and I are talking about trying to get pregnant, and I am terrified that I will be n* most of the time, when all I really want to do is enjoy pregnancy. So... have any of you had it, and is it as horrible as I think it is??!! Any thoughts or posts here would be appreciated!

Hi!


I did not get sick, or n* even ONCE my whol pregnancy...I wanted a baby so bad, but like you, was sooo scared to get sick! I had a c-section and everything, and no sickness at all! Thank the Lord! I read somewhere before that emets usually never get m/s!


Hope that helped some! Good luck TTC![img]smileys/smilies_01.gif[/img]

I never had it with either of my pregnancies, but none of my family did either. So maybe it's a hereditary thing. I did have a bit of n*, but only if I got hungry. Don't let emet put you off - the end result is worth it!!!

for me i never actually threw up..i just got very nauseated and gagged a lot, but never V*...even through my rough times!!

Hi there!!

I never had any morning sickness at all with my pregnancy. I only felt n* once, but I think that was because I ate something very heavy and greasy.
Still, if I'd had it it would have been most definitely worth it---kids are amazing!!

Lidia--your little one is beautiful! Thanks guys... I feel stupid being all scared about this, but I guess that's why I wrote on here, because I knew that you guys would understand! But yeah my mom and her mom never had ms*, so I am hoping that it IS hereditary. And I know that my want for little ones is much more than my fear, so I guess whatever happens I will tough it out! Thanks all for your advice and stuff! :-)

It's been a while for me. My 'little one' is now 10! [img]smileys/smilies_10.gif[/img] But I do recall having about 2-4 weeks of morning sickness with her. I was fine if I just rested on the couch until noontime. It was only in the morning for me, and only those few hours each morning. I never vomited. Toward the 2nd and 3rd trimester it was certain smells that would make me feel sick, but again... never vomited.

My husband and I are talking about having a baby and I totally worry more about sick kids than morning sickness.. For me it wasn't that bad at all.

I am just getting past the morning sickness part, and I never v*ed once. I did feel n* a couple of times, but as soon as I ate, it want away. The worst I felt was really icky. Sort of like a hangover\gut-rot. It started about 5 weeks and was gone by 10 weeks. Good luck, I wish you well!!

there is always a chance but the same with most things ... the thing is these days there so much that can be done to help and prevent these types of things ... dont let this phobia stop you from enjoying one of the worlds most wonderfull things !!!

I was so n* with morning sickness, but never v*. A non emet would have though, I guess we just have this knack for being able to avoid it. I think you find tricks that work for you, and as long as you adhere to them, you'll be fine. Like I could never ever have an empty tummy. THat was certain v*. So I would even get up in the night and snack and I was better. I did start losing weight because I was so n*, so the doctor put me on some medicine, and that helped some. PLus I wore those wristbands that have the pressure points, made sure I never got too hot, always was hydrated, etc. You'll figure out what works for you and you'll do great! Janna

I would not say that an emet. is less likely to have MS, we are just less likely to actually v* from it. I had MS pretty bad but never actually got sick although became really close. Whatever the case is I wouldn't let it stop you from experiencing being pregnant and bringing a precious baby into this world.

I'm so excited for you! I can't wait to get pregnant again! My husband says 4 or 5 months and we can start trying again, but I'm secretly hoping for an "accident" before then! [img]smileys/smilies_04.gif[/img]

I never v* with either of my children. With my second one, my daughter, I felt sick all the time for 2 months. I just had to have food in my stomach at all times. But I think with morning sickness it is easy to control your V*. But trust me I would be pregnant again in a heartbeat!! It is the most awesome experience in the world!!!!! ~Brandi~
