Everyone is different dtmum, so really it would be hard to judge when it will pass for you. Is this your first pregnancy?

As for me, with all my 3 pregnancies, it lasted up to around 18 weeks. The nausea (the worst part for me) ceased around 14 wks, but the vomiting hung around a few more weeks.

I KNOW how nasty MS is, I had a couple of hospital visits to get an IV line put in to rehydrate me. I could hardly eat/drink anything for weeks, would always lose heaps of weight, so through feeling so crappy - I would actually be looking better for it!

I had mine up until about 21 weeks. From time to time I am occassionally sick, or get that wave of possible nausea. I was relieved when it stopped as I was told some people have it really violently throughout their entire pregnancy. I couldn't walk into the kitchen without either feeling ill or being ill. Smells got to me big time. Once morning sickness left me, it got replaced with heartburn. Yuck.

I hope yours stops soon, I remember being advised that most women who have morning sickness only have it til about 12 weeks, but it is different to every individual.

Yeah I actually think the whole 12 week mark is a myth. I think the horrid tiredness passes around 12 weeks, but not often do I hear of women only having MS up to 12 weeks.

With Maya I stopped throwing up every day at 16 weeks, nausea lasted all the way thru with occasional vomiting. With the gremlins I vomited every day from 5 1/2 weeks until they were induced at 37 weeks. This time round I still have nausea and am still vomiting every morning but do have days where I don't feel bad, and now that the complete exhaustion has eased I am coping a little better.

And then there are people like me who dont have MS except for waves of queasyness every now and again who stress constantly about it meaning the hormone levels arent high enough and when I go to have my scan they are going to tell me there is nothing growing in there

Damned if you do and damned if you dont!!!

Gosh, looking at these replies I feel lucky! I had mine from 6 till 10 weeks, and at that time both the ms and extreme tiredness went which I was ever grateful for!

Mine lasted until I was 17 weeks - both nausea and vomiting...it truly was a horrid time, but now it seems just a distant memory!

I'm 21 weeks and still struggling with m/s.It started at 6 weeks and hasn't stopped.I had to give up work as I was having so much time off.Have tried everything but nothing seems to work.I was told it would stop at 12 weeks ,then 14 weeks then finally my midwife said unfortunately it might continue the whole way through.Hopefully yours wont last as long.

I'm a little different I guess cos I've had hyperemesis (severe nausea & vomiting, requiring hospitalisation and fluids).  It started at 6 weeks and was really bad up until about 20 weeks.  To this day, I'm now 37 weeks, and still vomiting!  It NEVER went away!  But it's not as bad, usually just 1-2 vomits a day.  I can't wait till this boy is out & I stop vomiting!  It will all be worth it  Some people don't have the slightest bit of MS!

I had it from about 7-8ish weeks until 18 weeks (hardly any vomitting, just constant worst-hangover-of-my-life type MS). All I could eat was bread and gingernuts.

I was fine for about 5 weeks where I cooked and ate anything, but then it came back so I barely cook now and only eat carbs. So I guess its just different for everyone.

Oh and I hate to tell you this, but a lot of people say that the 2nd trimester is fantastic because the MS is gone, and you're not yet big enough for it to be annoying. Maybe it was just because it was through winter for me, but I never got that great 2nd trimester feeling. Like I said above, only about 5 weeks of feeling 'normal'.

mine stopped with my first pregnancy around the 16-18 week mark. this time around was much better for me, and i found it stopped around 13 weeks. i could barely get out of bed with MS with my first, this time around i took vitamin B6 from 6 weeks and really think this made a big difference.

With Andrew I didn't have any just the odd bit of nausea. But with Josh it hung around for weeks. I think it was about 16 weeks when it finally went. I nneded meds to stop it with Josh as it was interferring with my studying.

I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!
