I was still throwing up at 16 weeks and figured out it was the food I was eating it wasn't digesting right so I had to change my diet completely to more veggies and fruits and protein and haven't had a problem since. So if you are like me and are eating a bunch of junk maybe just a switch is all you need! Feel better!!

If the sickness was causing any issues it would be with yoy bot the baby, the baby is living off the nutrients you already have stored up. My midwife said as long as you feel fine the baby is fine. Hope you start feeling better soon x

Doesn't harm baby, mighty unpleasant though. Just make sure you don't dehydrate - that is a problem for baby. As long as you're still peeing fairly often you're good. I had it badly til 30 weeks, eased up some now but still vomiting every 2nd day or so at 33 weeks. Good luck!

If you can't keep anything down, u should go to the E.R. you might be dehydratedand they can give u fluids and make sure that your not missing any electrolytes ( which can be harmful) I'm currently dealing with hyperemesis gravidarium so I feel your pain. Hope u feel better soon

As long as you are still eating small meals or snacks and lots of water you will be fine. My morning sickness didn't go away until 24-26 weeks was awful I lost 1.5stone by that stage, my baby is fine and I'm now 36 weeks

Don't worry, you should have an antenatal apt soon so tell your concerns at that apt but all should be fine.
