So I guess I'm 7 weeks in now and I have nausea from morning until night everyday 24/7. Its relentless and debilitating. I have a little cry every now and then just as a little 'woe is me' moment but that doesn't stop the nausea. I've tried everything to stop it :'-(
Just feeling really fed up. Plus to make things worse I haven't even got anywhere near my 12 week scan. Everything feels like it's taking so long waaaaa!

Oh I’ve been there too, it’s the worst part of pregnancy for me. Nothing natural works but please don’t feel worried about asking your GP for some anti-sickness medication. There are lots of safe options now.
My sickness was always worse between 7-10 weeks. It goes away at 13-15 weeks gradually and the second trimester is so much easier! Of course it’s different for everyone but generally when the placenta grows enough to take over, you should feel a bit better.
It also helped me to know that nausea and sickness in early pregnancy are good indications of a healthy baby. There’s a lot of research on that so something little to hold onto to!
Resting and also keeping busy/distracted, alongside some medication, should get you through but please go to hospital if at any point you spot signs of dehydration or your body weight drops significantly.
So now on week 8 and finally my stomach ache has stopped. Great, not as debilitated unfortunately now it leaves me wondering why don't I have a belly ache and feel nauseous anymore. I still have the feeling like I want to throw up but my appetite is a little better. I know it is early days and of course I'm overthinking but just wondering if I should just be grateful that I don't feel as nauseous or should I be concerned that whatever development was going on, is no longer developing. After how many weeks does the stomach ache normally stop?
