Hey all.
I’m 11weeks and 6 days pregnant and for what feels like many weeks now I’ve felt sick (basically all the time), had very bad food aversions and have had headaches on and off. But I feel like the last week everything has increased, more frequent headaches and a feeling of being under the weather (a bit like before you get a cold), and very achey. It’s exhausting and I’m wondering if it’s normal.
It’s been hard to eat properly due to the food aversions and feeling sick (I’m never actually sick thankfully), so I’m wondering if I’m just really run down. Or perhaps this is just what pregnancy looks like for me. I am eating but perhaps it’s a more basic and less varied diet than usual.
Does anyone else feel like this, especially the under the weather bit and aching?
Also, how are people coping with this persistent sickness… any tips? any good meal ideas? I feel a bit unclear about what I may take to try and help, such as ginger tea, some sites say it’s fine some say it’s not.
I’m not complaining , I'm thrilled to be in my position, I’m just looking for some reassurance and perhaps ideas.
Thanks all!
And hope all is well for everyone x
