How often did you throw up during your pregnancy?

    Crackers and Carbs did not help me. I needed protein! Try nuts, full fat yogurt or cottage cheese, cheese sticks. Also eat often.

    I threw up lots but mostly not more the twice a day 6w-18w. It was often dry heaving in the AM before I ate anything. If i ate before barfing in the morning i would just loose my breakfast and have to try to eat again. Gross I know..

    I think it is all different for everyone and from one pregnancy to the next.

    Good luck finding what works for you!

    With DS I only threw up twice the whole pregnancy - once at 6 weeks and again at 11 weeks. I mainly just had mild nausea in the first tri.

    Between 3-15 times a day, for 6 weeks straight. It was brutal. Double the hormones meant double the morning sickness for me. And even once I got out of the first trimester, between a sensitive stomach and gag reflex plus abdominal pressure and hormones, I threw up a few times a week. Sorry you're having a rough go of it!

    I didn't throw up until about a month in. I started with a couple of times a week, then every morning, then multiple times a day. It just kept getting worse over time. I ended up having to get medicine because I was losing too much weight.

    Lo1 - threw up multiple times a day and had all day nausea from 6-17 weeks.

    Current pregnancy - threw up at least 10 times a day since 5 weeks. Finally slowed down at 15 weeks, am almost 17 weeks now and I've only thrown up 3 times in the past week. Nothing helped ease it for me and had to get IV fluids a few times.

    3-5 times a day from 8-16 weeks with K. I'm 10 weeks with baby2 and so far not at all.

    Never! I was really lucky and just felt mildly off during the first trimester. I only felt truly nauseous a couple of times.

    I did however throw up a few times at the hospital after my cesarean (probably had to do with the pain medication).

    Too much with both pregnancies. Hope you have an easier go at it.

    5-7x a day on average, 10x in a row when I went to the ER. At 25 weeks, I'm controlling it with a constant stream of zofran, but am still gagging with nausea. Crackers, rice, applesauce, and fruit are my mainstays.
    ETA: I haven't thrown up in two weeks, it if I'm even ten minutes late on my next dose of Zofran I start gagging all over again.

    Every morning between 6 and 16 weeks. Then it tapered off and eventually went away.

    1st pregnancy (loss): 2-3 times/day from 4.5w-7.5w (mc)

    2nd pregnancy: 5-6 times/day from 4.5w-15w

    3rd pregnancy: without meds, 6+ times/day from 4.5w on...quickly went on meds and then it was much less... maybe 0-3x per day - until 24w though

    Only once - and it was a reaction to the smell of trying to clean up my dog's puke.

    @bluestriped bee: I know this is a downer, but with the twins I threw up pretty much every day at least once if not multiple times even on Zofran. It lasted for about 5 weeks until 12-ish. After that I only threw up if I tried to drink coffee. The second pregnancy I only threw up a few times, but I took Zofran again to keep from throwing up. It was not nearly as bad as the first time, though.

    Wow I feel so lucky after reading this thread, I never threw up. So much sympathy to those that did, especially multiple times a day!
