Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

I thought it was too early for morning sickness but I have not been feeling great. The only thing that is appealing to me is carbs! Last night, I cut up a bunch of fresh veggies, marinated them and then DH grilled them. When he came inside with them, I couldn't stand the smell! I can't bring myself to eat chicken or fish. I don't feel naseaus, just queasy. I'm living on bagels and cereal! Is this normal at only 6 1/2 weeks?

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

Definitely normal. That's kinda how I was in the beginning.

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

it absolutely is normal ....At exactly 6 weeks is when the nausea kicked in for me...I also lived on carbs i could only stomach pizza or bagels with tons of cream cheese...I am now 11 weeks and feeling much better...Make sure you are drinking alot of liquads and hang in there it gets better

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

I used to make my mom make me pasta and rice all the time. It seemed to be the onlything that stayed down

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

im the SAME way!!! Fruits and veggies are a definite no no for me right now. I had dry cereal this morning b/c the watermelon I wanted wasnt happening. Bagels and pasta is my usual diet these days. I am dying for potatoes so I'm hoping I can keep them down tonight.

Popsicles are good too.

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

This is when my nausea began as well. There wasn't much that appealed to me until I hit about 17 weeks. I hope it doesn't last that long for you!

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

I felt the same way and mine started around 5 weeks. I crave carbs. I am living off of pizza, pasta, salad and beans. I cant even think about chicken right now. I hope it gets better.

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

Carbs - Bagels - dry cereal is what I lived on 1st Trimester. Eat what ever you can handle, it will get better

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

Yep! I had two bagels a day in the beginning

My M/S started at 6 weeks and lasted till 16.

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

Not too early at all! With my DS I felt wonderful and then at 6wks everything changed. I was horribly nauseous and quesy every day (not all day but, off and on) sometimes so bad I couldn't move off the couch. Thank god this ended by the time I was 10 wks!

With this pregnancy I have felt slight nausea a few days off and on even earlier. Now at almost 6.5 wks it is starting to get worse again This time i am scared b/c I am a SAHM and have no idea how I will manage with my 20 mo old DS!

What got me through it last time:

Salt bagels (one b/f I even got out of bed in the morning (this is key if you wake up sick) and any time I felt nauseous)
Saltines throughout the day
Ginger ale
Soup (i lived on soup)

HTH!

Yup...totally normal. For me at 5 weeks I started getting queezy and could only eat carbs as well. Now at 21 weeks I am much better..I still gag every morning but after that, I am fine!! Good Luck!!

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

i ate only macaroni for dinner up until this week--i'm 14 weeks! no meat, few veggies and fruits too. i just couldn't stomach it.

and the morning sickness this time started at before 5 weeks--i couldn't believe it. it went away along with the food aversions. it will get better, i promise! it just may take a while.

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

Absolutley normal!!!

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

Hi Allison,

I'm 7 weeks and I told my dr that I've been living on Cheese Its. He said that carbs calm the stomach and stop nausea. It's perfectly normal.

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

I feel the same exact way. I'm about 6 1/2 weeks and I've been eating so much pasta and bread. I feel so much more bloated and nauseous but nothing happens, just queasy feelings. Cant wait for 2nd trimester!

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

me too, I'm about 6 weeks too, and I've been queasy for a few days now on and off. I know I'll regret this, but for now I'm happy about it, makes me feel secure that everythings going ok so far!

Re: Feeling Queasy - 6 1/2 weeks

I'm 6 1/2 weeks too and have been all kinds of queasy. I actually do OK with fruit and cereal but everything else just sounds gross and completely unappetizing to me. Looking forward to the second trimester!
