Roll on a couple of years and Wham! morning sickness hits again around the 7 week mark, my goodness how could I have forgotten how horrendous it was/is, obviously just blocked from my mind!
 
===All Day Sickness===
One of the reasons I "pee'd on a stick" was because I had a rather sickly feeling, once I had the positive result the sickness really hit after another couple of weeks, as lot of mummies to be  find, it wasn't just in the morning, it was constant, making everyday life very difficult.  With my first baby it was so much easier to deal with, I could just crawl into bed and wallow with my other half looking after himself. This time with a two year old wanting mummy to play it  wasn't so easy!

From spending time just retching in the toilet with my son knocking on the door shouting for "mummy" to trying to make him meals, it really made it hard to cope with.
I lost so much weight, okay so there is some positivity, and after a week off work went to the GP to seek a doctors note and was prescribed some anti-sickness tablets. I took them under sufferance, obviously worrying about how they would affect the baby despite being assured there was no danger.

To be truthful I was  quite relieved, I was feeling so desperately poorly that I just wanted something to be done.   After being admitted, urine sample was taken, canula fitted (which wasn't easy due to the dehydration), a couple of injections and tablets later and then collapse into bed with a fluid drip, 24  hours later having managed tea and toast, then a sandwich for lunch and I was well enough to go home with strict instructions to force small amounts of food and water down even if I felt sick.

After another week at home, still feeling nauseous but thankfully not being sick I was well enough to go back to work.
 
Now at 13 weeks I have odd moments of feeling a little sick but that is all, it is common for MS to ease as you reach 12 week mark although some ladies can suffer throughout their pregnancy.
