so I'm guessing I'm around 6 weeks pregnant now and the nausea is murderous. I can't do anything remotely strenuous at all without feel like I need to chunder.

The evenings are the worst. Every day from about dinner time onwards, the urge to vom is unbearable. I have a huge aversion to being sick so I'll do everything I can not to, but the nausea is slowly killing me. The only thing I can do is curl up in a ball and go to sleep because the symptoms are so much less come morning time.

I've had a week off work this week and there were a bunch of things I wanted to do around the house, but every time I start to do something I just get hit by waves and waves of nausea. It just feels like I've wasted a week of free time being so sick (as much as I've needed it because I'm also horribly exhausted).

Got a prescription for cyclizine from my GP but I'm not sure it's doing anything except making me feel extra tired.

How am I meant to deal with this for at least another six weeks?? I'm absolutely dreading going back to work on Monday because I know I'm going to feel disgusting 24/7 and my performance is going to suffer badly. I really want this baby but I feel so bad about feeling so desperate for this to be over.

Edit: I've tried ginger, peppermint, eating small meals, grazing constantly etc. etc. I've been lurking on this sub Reddit for the last few weeks trying out all the tips and tricks. Nothing seems to work 😭
