My vomiting started almost the week i found out and its quite bad some mornings. Just curious why this happens once u conceive, is it the hormones? Would love to understand whats going on in my body.
Actually yaar, it is because of those crazy pregnancy hormones like hCG and estrogen shooting up suddenly. Your body is adjusting to this massive change, so the stomach gets super sensitive.
According to my pregnancy tracker, the body produces a high amount of progesterone and hCG in the first trimester, which relaxes the stomach muscles and causes acid reflux and vomiting. It's amazing how much the apps teach you about these shifts!
I remember crying over my morning sickness, thinking it would never end. But it's just your body's natural way of adapting to the beautiful little baby growing inside you, and trust me, you'll forget all about it once you hold your toddler!
Ugh, those hormonal spikes make your sense of smell so strong that even your favorite tandoori chicken starts smelling weird! That sudden aversion is exactly why you end up throwing up.
My doctor explained that the rapid rise of the hCG hormone in early pregnancy slows down digestion, which often leads to nausea and vomiting. She said it's actually a sign of a strong pregnancy, but we should always track it to ensure it doesn't lead to severe dehydration.
