I'm just praying bt I'm scared coz some other women says they get sick till the end of their pragnancy! I hope by the second trimester I'll be ok though, water with lemon doesn't help a bit, just bought lactose finally yesterday, hope it will hellp

I'm just wondering why is it always so painful being pregnant! I'm just waiting for my reward at the end of my third trimester though! Just hang in there gal we'll be happy at the end of the channel!

I've been very bloated since the start of my pregnancy due to very slow digestive transit and an enormous fibroid. Then last weekend I started being able to go the loo again. I was 13 wk+2, so your symptoms might be over very soon (thinking positive). Have you phoned the midwife as they might be able to give you some tips. Have you got trapped wind indigestion or acid? Some of the ladies said they had to eat something, like a biscuit, before they got out of bed to stop the nausea. I hope you start feeling better very soon. xx
