Morning Sickness or lack there of.
By HzlGreenEyes » Posted Jun. 18, 2015 12:05pm - 448 views - 9 comments

So, I started looking up Morning Sickness. This topic is on my mind although I am not concerned at all. Now there are some forums that these women are just bat-shit crazy and talk about MS having to do with "sick blood" who she was informed from her nutritionist. I could go on and on about what others thought MS can be caused by.
-In my first pregnancy with my Son Preston, I had an awesome pregnancy. I was 26 at the time and I had no Morning sickness during that pregnancy. It was a text book pregnancy. Every milestone he was perfect and I only gained 26lbs with him. He is 5 years old now and is very smart, whitty and confident. I also remember I got a late BFP with him.
-My 2nd pregnancy that I miscarried at 13 weeks, I had morning sickness starting at 5w5d. I was so nauseous from sun up to the time I laid down for bed. That lasted until 12w exactly and I ended up losing that baby at 13weeks.
-My 3rd Pregnancy with Connor, I had morning sickness prior to my BFP lasting up to 12w exactly.
-This pregnancy, MS has not set in yet. Not sure if I will have it, like my 1st pregnancy but I wonder what this means.

Some people have said it has to do with Higher HCG levels that women get MS. It may be possible that HCG in the beginning may start off low but increasing appropriately hormones don't affect us as badly as those who start off with higher HCG levels?
So my question is to you ladies, have you had your HCG levels checked in the beginning and do your levels coincide with this?

My levels this pregnancy: (these are guess-timates on my dpo since I am not sure if I ovulated CD 15,16,17 or 18)

13dpo: 21
15dpo: 57
19dpo: 326

I think the topic of morning sickness is very interesting! I only had HCG measured once (1700 at 16DPO) but I assume it was always higher due to twins. My RE cautioned me when they confirmed my pregnancy that I would be super sick. Literally that is all she warned me about the whole appointment, even giving me 2 different prescriptions to counteract it. I only threw up once (5 weeks) but I cannot confirm if that was pregnancy related or my Easter Sunday pig out session. I also had almost no nausea and only mild bouts of feeling yucky or slightly queasy. Most of all it was just not being hungry or being turned off by food. My endocrinologist and ob/gyn are both amazed I have not been sicker, to the point of making me feel like I should be and because I am not, something should be wrong. I honestly think, and I have no medical expertise, that it's just so different for each of us....
