Is is normal that morning sickness peaks at 8 weeks and star Posted: 06-08-06 08:47am
I am entering my ninth week of pregnancy.
I'm worried because I started to have
morning sickness at the beginnning of the
seventh week, it came and went but was
quite unpleasant (I did not vomit but felt
I was on the verge many times), and now I
feel much better. I am still slightly
queasy much of the time, and I have all my
other pregnancy symptoms: sore breasts,
gas, fatigue, most odors repulse me. I had
an ultrasound last week and heard the
heartbeat. But....isn't it too soon for my
morning sickness to be getting better?? Is
is normal to have morning sickness that
peaks at 8 weeks and starts to go away at
9 weeks?

Morning sickness, vomiting, specific
eating habits, etc. are subjective
symptoms of pregnancy and their
appearance, severity and duration is
highly individual. An abdominal
ultrasound is an objective method for
evaluating fetal development rather than
these subjective symptoms. With regular
check-ups, you can accurately track your
baby's health.
