Today is week 16 and I was still nauseous yesterday and that's after I took all 3 anti-nausea medications. I threw up last night, too. It's been a while since I've done that. When I was in the hospital for hyperemesis, I was told week 12 was the peak of m/s.
Holding on to hope that it will be gone by week 20.
I gotta stay positive, though. Being nauseous means the twins are still doing well.
Anyone still getting sick after week 12?

I haven't been on meds in months, but I still get nauseous/yakky mostly due to overeating now. I'm almost 28 weeks 
Last time, I only had nausea weeks 6-9 and then the last few weeks due to overeating/space issues!

Mine was gone by week 12. I think weaning off the progesterone helped.

@lovehoneybee: Were you taking anti-nausea medication, too?

It lasted until week 20 last time. I'm REALLY hoping it ends sooner this time. I'm 9 weeks tomorrow and feeling awful. I almost cried at my desk yesterday I felt so sick.

@bluestriped bee: No...I threw up a fair amount but it was more like aversions to EVERYTHING (especially meat and dairy--I ate a ton of PB sandwiches). I probably should have asked for something, but my midwife never offered even though she knew I was struggling with food. I figured if she wasn't concerned than it was normal and I just had to deal (obviously I should have educated myself better, but hindsight...)

Mine lasted a little past 5 months with twins. It was pretty awful, even with medications. Hope it ends soon for you!

Mine starts early on and lasts until 15-16 weeks. Right now, I'm 35-36 weeks pregnant and threw up yesterday thanks to a smell trigger. I've been waking up queasy past few days too. It's back for me. I'm also battling a sinus infection, so that might have been some of it.

Aww I'm sorry! I was only nauseous (all day long) and I'm pretty sure it went away around 12 weeks.

HG isn't the same as morning sickness, love. Mine never let up, although it got a lot better with my first pregnancy around 20 weeks. Hang in there, and I'm sorry you're suffering

@erinpye: Oh, I know. Guess I wanted to include people who had just regular morning sickness. Probably should have asked for people who had HG. It's okay.

My first pregnancy, I was super super ill until 17 weeks and then it totally vanished and didn't come back.
This pregnancy, I was able to stop taking meds at 20 weeks, but I am still nauseous at least 4-5 hours of every day (sometimes more, depends on the day) now at 25 weeks. Which is a big improvement over the 24/7 nausea I had from 5.5-20 weeks, but clearly it isn't going away this time and I get down about it sometimes because it just saps my will to live basically.

Maybe 16-18 weeks. They say you don't forget, but I have forgotten!

@Boogs: Oh, good. Hoping once the babies are here, I will forget about this.

With my first I had terrible morning sickness everyday until 16-17 weeks, felt nauseous for a few more weeks, and started throwing up occasionally again around 34 weeks.
This time it hasn't been as bad, in either intensity or frequency. I stopped throwing up two weeks ago (I'm almost 16 weeks) and rarely feel nauseous. Although I did randomly throw up this morning...

I was sick til 24 or so weeks and then sick again at the end (32 weeks onward). In between was 8-10 weeks of perfection. (Well almost perfection, I would still throw up of I didn't him while brushing my teeth!)

Hope that it passes for you soon!

@bluestriped bee: I have HG and was sick all the way through with my first, but it improved at 20 weeks and got bad again at about 35 weeks. With my second, it improved again at 20 weeks, I had a really bad relapse at 26 week, and then it improved again after a few weeks, but it continued for even a few days postpartum. Even when the worst of the HG wasn't bad anymore, I still had major food aversions and absolutely no energy at all. Hang in there! It's a tough slog with HG.

Mine lasted until week 22, and I had to take Zofran up until that point. Even on the med, I was still vomiting at least once per day, but around week 22 it disappeared. I was so glad to be through with that phase of my pregnancy.

it was around 16 weeks with both kids, though i still felt a little nauseous after that for a few weeks.

At my 24w5d appt, my OB suggested stopping the Scopolamine patch to give my ears a rest (I was developing an ear irritation). She said to take zofran/reglan meds if I needed. I stopped the patch and had about 3 rough days. After that, mu nausea pretty much went away. I'm at 28 weeks and I've been med free since. I still have some mild nausea but pretzels are usually enough. I have thrown up bile once since then but luckily it doesn't stick around.
I am concerned that it will return because both my sister and SIL saw their nausea returned towards the end. I think I heard due to heartburn and such.

16w with my first. 20w with my second (plus randomly occurring nausea until the end, but not too bad).
