I barely had any and kept worrying! Is it really okay to not feel sick? Reading these replies is making me feel better na, thought I was the only one.

My doctor said morning sickness is common but absolutely not necessary. It depends on hormones and varies per person and even per pregnancy. No nausea is a normal variation, not a red flag.

Compulsory? Haha no, theres no entry exam for pregnancy that needs vomiting! If your stomach is calm just enjoy it, your body is being kind to you for once.

Swapna Dey · Answer

Not at all compulsory. First baby I threw up daily, second baby zero nausea. Both healthy. Some women never feel sick the whole time, its completely fine.

I had it really bad so I used to think no sickness means problem, but thats wrong. My cousin had none and her baby was perfect. Be glad if you escape it honestly.
