just found out im pregnant, must be 4-5 weeks. everyone keeps warning me about the morning sickness but i dont feel anything yet. when did it usually kick in for you all? thoda curious and thoda nervous honestly.
I still remember how exhausting that morning sickness was, starting around my 2nd month. It literally drains you emotionally and physically. Sending you so much love, please hang in there because it does get better.
Mine started around week 7. Since I had to watch my sugars, I couldn't have sweet ginger ales or candies. I used to suck on lemon slices or drink plain lemon water without sugar to control the nausea safely.
For most women, it starts around the 6th week and peaks near the 9th week. My doctor told me it's because of the rapid rise in beta hCG hormones. It usually starts getting better after the first trimester ends around week 12.
Oh, for me it started exactly on week 5, and I panicked thinking I had food poisoning! It's so scary when the constant sickness kicks in. Don't worry if it hasn't started for you yet, every pregnancy is different, but keep some ginger candies close!
It usually begins around the 6th week of pregnancy. To manage it without spending too much, just keep some dry biscuits or rusk by your bedside and eat one before getting up. It really helps settle the stomach naturally.
