My nausea got better around 14-15 weeks but I found that whole "improved energy level" thing to be a myth. Especially with my first.

I hardly had any sickness at all in the 1st trimester. Now that I am in the 2nd, 14 weeks, it is starting. I am sleeping worse too. Nothing helps me sleep. My restless leg syndrome is a lot worse.

I am bummed I thought the 2nd was the honeymoon phase!! Hoping things get better!!

I remember feeling liked I'd been totally jipped by my second trimester - everyone told me I'd get all this energy and I just never did. I stopped throwing up at 16 weeks, but I was on anti-nausea meds and if I didn't take them I knew about it. For me, the third tri has been much easier. Hope you start to feel better soon!

I was really nauseous up until 20 weeks. Now I'm 26 and it's starting to come back, but a little different this time. I feel nauseous a few times a day but don't have a major aversion to food like I did before. After I eat I feel better

I'm not having any nausea, but I'm 23 weeks and still not really feeling the "golden trimester." I'm more tired now than I was during the first trimester. And I'm just sore and achy, like, all the time.

My experience has been like @oahujeni
I was sick and had major aversions up to about 20 weeks.
At 28 weeks I only usually throw up once a day, my aversions are mostly gone and I usually feel better once I eat.

You still have time to feel better!

I've had hellacious heartburn in the second trimester - worse than my morning sickness. And it's getting hard to roll over and get out of bed and that kind of thing. But it's been OK.

My nausea got better during my second trimester, but my migraines took a little while. About half way through my second trimester those also got better.

Hope you start feeling better too!

I'm 15 1/2 weeks and I still get those times when I feel suddenly exhausted (i.e. just fell asleep last night w/out finishing what I was doing). My appetite was REALLY lacking in 1st tri. Got a little better starting 10 weeks and 12 weeks. But really still can't handle a lot of good foods. But starting this week 15, I've had more of an appetite/hunger. While foods still don't taste all that good or appetizing to me, I do feel hungry more and trying to eat better to nourish baby. So far, I've not been eating "well" or "healthy". Rather, my thinking is ANYTHING I can eat is better than nothing. lol.
I'm hoping this week or next will be the final turning point where I can finally eat some meats and proteins.
Good luck and hang in there!

I didn't feel better until 18-19 weeks, if you are only eating one meal a day I would consult your doctor about getting on Zofran. the baby is taking it's nutrients, but leaving you with nothing and hat's not good. I didn't gain weight until 21 weeks, and that was because I was finally keeping food down. After that it really was better! So I think it's a myth that it happens in the beginning, but hit the 1/2 mark and you will hopefully feel a little better. Chock down as much healthy food as you can though so both you and baby benefit!

My nausea did get better, but I have gotten migraines pretty much every other day since I hit 12 weeks. Also...I think I'm just as tired as I was in the first trimester.
