Is anyone else still sick in the second trimester?

[Toria]

Hi everyone!

I am 16 weeks today and still feeling unbelievably sick. I can't believe it hasn't gone away yet. When I was pregnant with my son (now 21 months), the nausea stopped at about 11 weeks. This time, I've been nauseous all day every day since 5 weeks and being physically sick as well since about 9 weeks. It's pure misery.

I feel like I have tried every recommended suggestion for morning sickness relief and, as nothing has worked, I did get a week's prescription of Stemetil from the Dr a couple of weeks ago. That did help. I only still felt sick when hungry and in the evenings but life certainly felt a bit more normal and I was able to spend some quality time with my son. I wasn't physically sick at all. Trouble is, I feel guilty taking medication so I decided not to get anymore and see if the problem was going to go away on it's own.

I really feel fed up. I didn't even manage to get through typing this post without being sick, it's awful. Anyone got any advice? Anyone else feeling like this?

I'd appreciate any advice.

Oh hun the sickness is awful isnt it. I still feel sick now but only occasionally... if i have my scarf on too tight and its against my throat (an odd one i know ) if i get too hot or tired it makes me feel sick..same with hunger. I did stop being physically sick at 17 weeks though which made things easier I do sympathise though as its not pleasant, and you have another LO to look after too.

I hope it starts to ease soon... i know other ladies i've spoken to have experienced it at 16 and then 18 weeks as there is a growth spurt apparently and then its died down again to normal.

if you find a way of stopping it , please let me know! i was sure it'd be gone by 20 weeks but apparently not

I was still feeling sick all the time and being sick up to around 18-19 weeks. I still have times where I get sick now I think it gets worse with each pregnancy to be honest

I still feel nauseous but not 24/7 now thank goodness, I'm 16 weeks and was expecting it to stop around 12 weeks but alas it didnt. I find it very difficult brushing my teeth especially the back teeth without heaving. It's awful, I don't have any remedies for you but please know your not alone

i was never this bad with alice - i recon i just get sick when carrying boys!
