Morning Sickness??

Quoting Melissa:

I had twin boys and my morning sickness was horrible...lasted until I gave birth and was so bad I lost 10 pounds initially and had to take medication to control it my entire pregnancy! Hopefully it's better with my next one!

I had identical twin boys also, and I can totally relate! I was sick from the moment I found out and lost 15 lbs. my first trimester, and then wound up gaining only 50 lbs. total for the entire (7 month) pregnancy. At first I was put on the BRAT diet, but that didn't work and then I couldn't even keep down water. Went to the hospital for dehydration and put on Phenergan. That made me incredibly sleepy and I had to work, and it wasn't doing anything for the morning sickness. So, I was upgraded to Zofran, which worked wonders, but not all the time. I still wore those pressure wrist bands and ate crackers all the time! I was sick from beginning to end of pregnancy, but my sister who had girls (both singletons) had no morning sickness or issues at all with her pregnancies. She still says it was the easiest thing she's ever done. So, I'm a firm believer that the sicker you are, the healthier the pregnancy is going and that you're having boys! LOL Good luck and enjoy your baby!

I was a little nauseous for a couple weeks (I think from about 8-14 weeks) but only got sick once. Other than that I was great! I knew I was having a boy though before all that =) and I was right!

I only had morning sickness for about two weeks and it wasn't too bad actually. I never got sick, but was just very queasy off & on throughout the day.

The first trimester I was just nausiouse, but right when I started the second trimester I threw up all the time. Mostly at night though. And it lasted until I had my son.  Not fun at all.

I thought that maybe I wouldn't get sick because my mom never got sick with any of my 9 brothers or sisters.  But I guess I was wrong.

I have twin boys also! My morning sickness was the worst! I went to the hospital for dehydration at 11 weeks and lost almost 15 lbs.! I was put on phenergan, but it didn't do anything. So, the doctors stepped it up and put me on Zofran. I had morning sickness 24/7 for a good five and a half months (maybe even longer, I can't remember). I also delivered at 33 weeks, so I basically had morning sickness for the entire pregnancy. My friends used to laugh and make jokes about how I was having boys, then the sickness got worse and they'd make jokes about how I was having twins. Turns out it was all true!

My sister has two girls (not twins), and her pregnancies were the easiest ever. No sickness or nothing. She even had that wonderful pregnant glow and everything that I never had. I think I pregnant greeness LOL. So, I truly believe that being pregnant with girls is far easier than being pregnant with boys. I'd rather have boys any day regardless!

I had mild all day nausea with my first, and it disappeared with the second trimester.  This time, though, I got sick at about seven weeks and had to have Zofran it was so bad.  It is another boy but its so much worse.  I think finally at the beginning of my third trimester I'm finally getting out of it.  A least I hope....

Hi girls,
I had pretty bad morning sickness too. It last to about 12 or 13 weeks. After that, I felt great (accept for the terrible back pains, leg pain, etc,etc...)
