Your Pregnancy: Week 12

First trimester: Check! The nausea, fatigue, mood swings, and bathroom dashes should soon fade, but (sorry!) headaches and dizziness will probably get more intense. The good news: You're about to embark on the second trimester, when mood and energy levels generally peak.

> Is the dizziness hitting?
> Want natural headache relief?
> Why does sex feel different?
> See all first trimester Q&As





Baby's now the size of a plum!
As you move into the second trimester, baby shifts into the growth and maturation stage. After weeks in the critical development stage, almost all of her systems are fully formed.









To-do:
> Schedule monthly OB visit
> Milestone: Tell friends and family
> Milestone: Belly starting to show
> Go to your checklist

[ tip ] Suffering from swamp mouth (that awful taste that somehow gets worse after brushing)? Try sipping water with lemon or sucking on something sour. Then say "sucking on something sour" three times fast.

It's amazing how once I hit 11 weeks I feel so much more energetic and my nausea is GONE!!! I'm thrilled!

by lbingham520

Well it truley different for me. I feel tired all the time. I crave mashed potateos and gravy. I hit my 12 week 1st part of next week!

by mcoleman1

I guess I am lucky, I haven't been sick once or had cravings. I have noticed some dizziness, I thought it was due to the heat =\

by Indianajames

I'm 12 weeks and the m/s is gone but replaced with terrible migraines and i'm more tired than ever.

by cabbatacola

Happy Tuesday! I feel great today. Yesterday i felt very drained. I work & attend college. Thak god this is my last semester! I feel very drained some days. But i tell all get lots of rest. :)

by mcoleman1

still waiting for the m/s to go away and all this great energy to come my way - 12 weeks. Please god, it has been 7 weeks of non stop nassau. I am about to go crazy.

by RayJayBaby

I am 11 weeks and very much looking forward to my 2nd trimester. I hope my nausea goes away. I have been nauseated and vomiting since about 5 weeks and have had no energy. All I did was sleep, until this past week I went to the ER. They gave me an IV and hydrated me. That was the best! I also got a prescription for nausea that works wonders. Its called ZOFRAN. Small tablet dissolves on your tongue, and does not make you drowsy, therefore I am able to work. I was on the verge of losing my job and thank God I went to the ER. My OB tried to help but her prescriptions made sleepy. I trully recommend to anyone who feels drained and very sick, go visit Urgent care, or ER. I was at a point where I couldnt get up anymore of being so drained and vomitting everything. To those ladies who have never felt anything like this, be thankful! I hope this ends soon because Im almost out of the pills.

by ldehoyos

I am 12 weeks and so glad the all day nausea has finally subsided! I am still feeling very tired though, but I can handle being tired. I'm just glad to part with the all day nausea.

by cindy510

I am now 12 weeks and my tiredness is still there. I sleep for 8 hours at night and by 1 or 2pm I'm so tired that I have to lay down and end up sleeping for 2 hours sometimes.

by kelsey032010

by PreciousCarey

I'm just now starting to feel better. I was 12 weeks yesterday, and have been sick for like the past 4 or 5 weeks. This is my second pregnancy-with my first I was not sick ONCE! Maybe this one's a girl! : )

by babymammabosworth

I'm in my 12th week and have also been experiencing the headaches as well as losing weight. I was not overweight when I became pregnant and I feel like i am constantly eating. Should I be concerned?

by vbreiwa@gmail.com

I have to agree, I am tired all the time and can't sleep at night. My first pregnancy was nothing like this.....

by carmenmcgugan

Feeling great,but not loving the inbetween regular & maternity wear!!

by MicheyG

I am 11 weeks and this has been my worst week for being sick so far!!

by kgrinstead

I'm definitely feeling the headaches...and dizziness. I'm 12 weeks 1day.

by rainy721

The nausea is still here for me at 12 weeks. I am noticing more dizziness and headaches for sure. The energy level is improving FINALLY, I like to accomplish a lot in a day so I felt pretty slowed down for a while. This weekend we will announce our news to our families! I wonder what they'll say?! This is number 4 after all. I never thought we'd have that many, but it seems like a wonderful number for our family.

by jands95@msn.com

I'm 12 wks and I've had n cravings or "outward signs" of nausea (yet...fingers crossed), but I've been unbelievably exhausted since I found out that I was pregnant! When will I get my energy back!?

by mtorregrossa

So relieved to hit 12 weeks, looking forward to finally announcing to the general public. I have had to end every sentence to people I have told- and please don't post it on facebook yet. Going to get ultrasound photo this Friday and then post that. I am 35, so having all the "scary tests" done.

by Chandypants

Other than the occasional headache and tiredness I have been doing pretty good overall!

by TheBebe

I'm feeling so much better now that I'm at 12 weeks! The sickness has subsided, and I haven't had too many headaches. We had our 12 wk appt today, and got to hear the heartbeat for the first time, and had the NT testing done. :)

by Tweets350

im 12 weeks with my first.. not really showing yet.. having really bad headaches.. i'm very happy to have gotten this far in the pregnancy!

by denalance

wow i still have m/s but now i can add headaches and dizzy too! isn't pregnancy wonderful!

by elfsgirl08

My head is driving me crazy and I'm 12wks I still feel drained

by smurf_family

I have a little morning sickness here and there but it's not too bad,I do get pretty tired though.

by cruz_janet14@yahoo.com

I am lucky, as I didn't have morning sickness. I had an aversion to meat, though...couldn't eat it, or smell it...now I am starting to feel more tired, to the point where, at work, if I lay my head down for a second, I will fall asleep. I guess I can't put my head down! lol I am having a lot of headaches, too...

by arpslady

I am 12 wks today but was put on bed rest on Monday.. this is going to be a long pregnancy! lol

by berber2887

My "morning sickness" was hit and miss, with a few good days and then a string of horrible ones. I have had three great days where I have actually been able to eat, so I am hoping I might get to experience that magical time in the 2nd trimester where they say you should feel better...lol I am not showing yet, but I am def starting to feel pregnant! Now if only others could tell too, it would make it easier for them to understand I think.

by missybee77

12 wks today...terrible heartburn and I cant eat or sleep...I hope this goes away sooner than later..and I am so thirsty

by Brletich04

I am sleeping 9 to 11 hours a day and craving potatoes (french fries, mashed, hash browns). No morning sickness but getting more frequent headaches

by AprilCW1

12 weeks today! Was super nauseous on Thursday, but today I feel great. Walked around a carnival, even, which would have been unheard of. I have had a few dizzy spells at work, though, this last week. The funny thing was, I had a bad spell for the first time last week, and in my inbox was my "you're 12 weeks, you might have dizzy spells!" As awful as felt, I had to laugh!!

by jessielude

nausea totally not gone, gaining a bit more energy..... super dizzy if i move too fast.... ugh....

by littleotter2010

Im 12 weeks today and I finally feel great!

by JessieQ218

It's kind of weird for me, I only have three symptoms: skipped cycle, tender breasts and weight gain. That's all that have been going n for me and I am at my 12 week mark. It's also strange how all the weight I've gained went straight to my hips, thighs and butt first. I went from 135 lbs to 174 lbs all within the first 2 months. Even before I knew I was pregnant I started gaining weight. I have a very weird pregnancy, but it could be worse so I'm not complaining too much!

by delahuerta16

I'll have to say this has been pretty darn easy for me! Accept for the extreme tiredness in the first few weeks I've been feeling great. Starting to get a little belly now and can't wait for the baby to start moving around! I'm so excited about this whole experience... and yes, I'm a first timer. LOL!

by KatieH55

Not to much morning sickness, But constant headaches, and extremely dizzy a lot. :( Always hungry not much changes! lol! feeling exhausted all the time! have to go to bed 8:30 every night!

by miss_braun3

i am still getting sick several times a day and feel like crap, i'm 12 weeks and 4 days, and am now getting migraines.

by plannin4mrs

Just hit 12 week mark, nausea beginning to disappear. Headaches, joint aches, and everytime I eat I get really sleepy afterwards.Furthermore, I am thirsty all the time!!!

by LaurenMurph

I was feeling like that after about 8 weeks, soon as i turned 11 weeks it started all over again...so I have been having like a roller coaster thing goin gon.

by Chantel_shanei

@ IndianaJames: Me too! No nausea, a little light dizziness, a couple of headaches here and there. And that's it. I went for my first trimester screening two days ago and I told the counselor that if it weren't for the fact that I was missing my period, I'd have no idea that I even was pregnant!

by MGWStoryteller

I am feeling much better...funny I have been craving mashed potatoes too!

by malmeyer

O my word!Im craving mash potatoes and gravy!My nausea has gone but still feeling tired.Dont know whether its just me but i cant wait to 'show' more!

by soontobemummy_kimberley

I think more than anything I am tired. Knock on wood I have had ZERO morning sickness. My initial cravings though are for Sprite and Chocolate.

by gnalicea

Mashed potatoes and gravy sound really good now :)

by littlesisbride

I still have the m/s and now headaches all the time...it's all worth it in the end though :) I woldn't trade how I've felt for anything!!!

by jkj1995

I have had headaches almost daily, and I haven't had m/s in weeks, but I gag a lot... I would still rank sleep among my favorite activities.

by bubear612

I hit 12 weeks today and am feeling a little better than in the very beginning. I have been suffering from severe morning sickness, excessive saliva, pregnancy rhinitis. They are all still there, but the morning sickness has gotten better. Hopefully another week or two will bring relief from the other symptoms as well.

by bombshellgal

Drained is the word of Week 1-11 I feel like I have no energy what so ever. I will be glad to be near the End of the 3rd trimester ..

by marij82

bump starting to show! so excited! someone noticed for the first time today!! hubby has been waiting and waiting to see the effects of our hard work ;)

by jlwk

12 weeks and thank god no morning sickness yeaaaaaa I can say i crave everything but not tired hopefully if I do it wont be o bad.

by LIZ562

Does anyone know why this site says that the 12 week ends the 1st trimester yet my doctor said it's the 15th?

by Margiebride

I am thrilled to be past the first trimester- I now have more energy!!! Hip hip hooray. Good luck to the rest of the moms to be out there. When is everyone else due- I am due in mid July!!! 2nd baby after 1.5 of trying!!!

by erpskp

I am coming to a close at my 12 weeks and now my body decides that it does not like anything I eat! I thought I was out of the clear for this!?!?!

by SLuna-Morris

nausea is slowly starting to fade..alas i still have absolutely no energy. It almost feels like i've had the flu and a stomach bug for the past month.

by AshesBabies2

I am soooooo glad the nausea is gone too. But now I am hungry A LOT! So that's definitely a trade off.

by Obi-Wan-Kababy

I'm now 12 weeks and 2 days and Thank God I feel so much better. The nausea is pretty much gone and I can now eat more than lemons. I'm still tired as ever but just glad to be feeling better.

by ShakyLeo

My engery level is getting better everyday! M/S is still hit or miss but getting easier to control. We just heard the heartbeat the other day for the first time too, very cool!

by Petitefleur816

i'm in week 12 and my nausea is almost getting worse. i'm wondering if it will leave by the time i get to trimester #2. Does anyone know?

by artsyme_001

I feel great compared to afew weeks ago. I have so much more energy now. I better make the best of it. :)

by lizettepatino

a little concerned. I am still experiencing nausea and I am still always very tired is this normal

by love2tony

I've definitely got the "Swamp Mouth" and sour things seem to help. Also, ripe tomatoes and artichoke hearts seem to cut it too. Of course, buying ripe tomatoes in Rhode Island in January is costing me a fortune!

by moteq

I feel great but am still pretty tired! The only cravings I have had are for fruit...strawberries, plums, oh, and bananas on my pancakes!

by KellieRDH

I'm sooo relieved at have reached 12 weeks. My energy is back (mostly) and I just feel better! I have notice that although my appetite is present, I can only eat small portions, though.

by PPeer

I have noticed dizzyness and swamp mouth as they call it. I didnt know that was a pregnancy sympton lol..Its so nasty I thought something was wrong with my mouth lol. I seem to have more energy and dont go to the bathroom as much. The night sweets seem to be getting worse. Im not showing at all and I dont even feel a bump so I am guessing itll be awhile before I show.

by mississippigirl09

I'm so tired and have minor cramps, however i just got done with my monthly ob visit and the heartbeat was good to go, doctor said everything looked great!!!

by ksillerud

Well, 12 and a half weeks, no more nausea, but I still want nothing to do with meat. Other than being tired I am doing really well.

by punky00013

Still tired! Light bleeding today but I didn't panic, I just called doctor. Appointment on Tuesday. Can't wait until I have energy again. Grow, baby, grow!

by deiejones

I am 12 weeks and very excited to have reached this milestone! About 5 months ago I had a miscarriage and we have been very nervous up tp this piont. I finally feel like I can relax a bit and enjoy whats to come!

by aaronsamour

did anyone on hear get there first trimester screening yet? I was just wondering becasue mine came up a little high I just got to wait for blood work but the measurements were at a .4??

by lilmomma6372

So i hit my 12th week and the a.m sickness still isnt gone. And im still tired, on top of that i have headacks and dizzy ness. So yeah still not doing so well. I just want to hide from the world right now. Cause i could smell everything and almost every smell makes me sick.

by Mrs.Espinoza

Feeling fantastic! 12 wks 2 days, still not one bout of nausea! Saw the baby for the first time yesterday on the sonogram. So exciting and made it finally seem for real!

by AllisonG2010

My first pregnancy was amazing! No ailments. This time is a different story, I'm going on 13 wks with headaches everyday and lots of fatigue! Once I feel that kick though it'll be worth it all!

by brianalcampbell

i feal really good am craving sour stuff i notice my boobs hurt more and head hurts some times not fealing too tired anymore thank god am 12 weeks preggo am just so happy to make it this far i go to the doctor tomorrow to here the baby heart beat for the first time tomorrow.

by Nickea1435

I hit 12 wks yesterday and the nausea seems to have subsided but these headaches and fatigue are just insane! Just in the last couple days I started having dizzy spouts! I don't remember any of this except the nausea from my 1st pregnancy. Although it was 7 yrs ago!

by dalke123

this is my 2nd pregnancy and this one is totally different than the first, i am sick so tired, dizzy, headaches!! Did i mention tired? I am so ready for week 13 hopefully this will all go away and i can feel like i can actually get dressed!!

by cgray2051

Anyone else more hormonal now??? I fell like *itchzilla some days.... O.o

by mckyspazzy

i'm 12 weeks im exahausted all the time and have alot of headaches and hip problems. it makes me wonder the further along i get if its gonna be a bigger problem.

by rheaguerrero

I will be 12 weeks tomorrow, and everything seems to just being getting worse. I am glad some of you are lucky enough to feel great, so far both my prgnancies have been somewhat uncomfortable.

by MDavis0205

I haven't had any morning sickness at all, just a lot of lethargy. Since I am now entering week 12, I hope I get my energy back soon. I has been a real struggle to get my booty out for a walk in the evenings, even though the dogs (my collies) really love it when my hubby and I both take them out.

by Marilincredible

Found out to day that we are having twins super excited

by cindicooper815

I really wanna be happy that the first trimester is over today, but with a terrible cold it makes it incredibly hard to be excited. This is definitely more of a challenge than I thought because trying to kick a very bad cold without medicines is Very Very Difficult! And sleep doesn't come easy because of it. This baby better know it's the most loved child in the world for me to be so disciplined. Only 12 weeks along and I already LOVE it more than words can describe!

by MrsLobato3

i feel tired all the time but i guess i was lucky i never had m/s

by missy83cn

i feel tired all the time but i guess i was lucky i never had m/s

by missy83cn

I wish the morning sickness was going away. Hit 12 weeks Tuesday and I am still throwing up 2-3 times a day and nauseas all day long. Very ready for this to fade and the energy to come back.

by azimmerman1977

I'm 1/2 way through my 12 weeks and my migraines are horrible! I'm lucky that I haven't been sick at all, and no cravings either - but I definitely have the appetite for 2!!

by JasonKate7

migraines, and dizziness :/ Oy Vey!javascript:WebForm_DoPostBackWithOptions(new%20WebForm_PostBackOptions("ctl00$MainContentPlaceholder$ctl05$CenterColumnWidgets$ctl00$lbtnSubmit",%20"",%20true,%20"",%20"",%20false,%20true))

by LanderFamily

Wow! I'm 12 weeks now! Hope they can see the genitals! Haha!! Never had any symptoms really, but I hope this constant fatigue comes to a hault! Love the baby in my belly!

by kcarnovale

Wow after reading some of these posts I feel so lucky to not have any m/s and for the most part I feel well. I'm drained I went from sleeping 12 hours a day to 8-10 now, so it's getting there, I do crave anything thats bad for me this baby hates fruits and veggies and I tend to feel worse come 3pm it's usually down hill so hence the sleeping alot, it's just easier...........but seeing my peanut dance around for the first time in my belly has been worth every day!!

by tamdemers

At week 12 I feel so much better, more engery!. I crave blueberry, peanutbutter smoothies! Told the family and everyone is happy!. only 195 days left and so much still to do!

by nicolelm1

You're so lucky lbingham520!!! I'm 12 weeks and my nausea is still really bad, I went to the doc on Monday and he said my nutrient levels are really low...I am supposed to eat more even though it makes me gag, I am praying that this is the last week of nausea coz I love food and miss eating meals-I've been surviving on flapjacks, cereal, soup and smoothies!!!!

by tarauiadhmaill

12 weeks today --I really hope they're right about the nausea fading. Anything and even nothing will make me gag. I do find some relief in the comment about headaches though. I had chronic migraines but since getting pregnant, I haven't had anything too severe and then BAM, two days ago a terrible one hit and wouldn't go away. Had me worried a bit.

by armywife212

I'm so excited I'm 12 weeks pregnant... never had morning sickness or nausea, just tired but since last week I'm feeling more energetic! Got my first pictures taken and my bump is really showing... can't wait for my first ultrasound coming in 10 days!

by Idalmis

I am now 12 weeks and the nausea is a lot better but now I feel SO tired!

by mandytesshoit

I am in my 12th week and I am DRAINED! all the time. I work 12hr nite shifts but thats only 3 days a week. I chalk it up to I am not getting adequate rest, but last nite I worked and I got the worst headace. I took a tylenol and it had me terribly dizzie, and it's never done that before. For the most part Im excited and can't wait til the baby arrives!

by whitehouse828

Have had no morning sickness! Very exciting! This is my second tho an I def seem to be showing more alot sooner!

by sky325blue

No nausea but very tired. Today I started craving things other than chocolate lke cottage cheese, string cheese, strawberries...all fairly healthy things...oh and don't forget the pickles...why do prego women crave pickles?

by Cubsgal1981

Today is my 12 week marker, and my body celebrated by puking up my breakfast. I'm hoping this morning sickness and tiredness will be gone soon. I'm sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. :)

by ckirkham

Well i am 12 weeks acording to my doc.But this web site said 10 weeks.But i am starting to show i have my appointment for a spine check tomarrow and have to go with a full blader.I don't know how i am going to do that due to running to the bathroom every 15 min if im lucky.my time in the bathroom use to be in front of the mirror but now it is eather sittng on the toilet or nealing infront of it.I tried to make eggs today but could not handle the smell.

by countingtime

I'm 12 weeks today and still nauseous in the mornings and in the late afternoon. Once I eat I'm fine. I heard that some of this nauseous feeling last well into the mid 2nd trimester. I'm sure hoping it doesn't last that long for me.

by mimijoseph1

Lucky you guys, I've had this hangover feeling for the past 6 weeks and I'm not in my 12th week, I'm praying that when I hit 13 weeks this nausea and horrible taste buds goes away!!! Oh I cant' wait!!!

by laurenerodgers

Going by the doctors due date I am 12 weeks today. I have been sick daily, almost all day unless I eat every other hour. I crave fruit and ice cream (popsicles, snow cones and ice cream from the ice cream man). I get tired easily still and can't wait until I get my energy back!

by mandapandah

i"m really lucky i haven't had much morning sickness until lately! i"m still pretty tired but not too bad. i can't wait to find out what the baby is next month!!!!

by stephvaughan8

well i dont have any morning sickeness but i being having major headache.. anyone else is feeling like that?

by ji23ji

Feeling pretty good...the only time I feel like im going to throw up is when I dont eat right when I start feeling hungry . But week 12 is going better than the others.

by shelina1991

hi I just hit my 12 weeks and still waking through out the night headaches are more often. Not to much m/s. still no craving for ice cubes like with my 3 boys so we will wait and see. Oh and still tired during the day but wake 2 or 3 times at night and up by 5.

by mum23boys

After weeks of not wanting to eat, all of a sudden I am starving!

by marvkm1

I'm still HELLA tired all the time. But i'm not as nauseous. I love this. I cant wait until my belly gets bigger!! ^_^ I'm really excited to feel he/she kick.

by Breeanaa

Finally made it to 12 weeks with our first! I have had all day morning sickness since I was 4.5 weeks so I am ready for it to be over! Lost 10 lbs in the last 2.5 months but hopefully soon I'll be able to start eating for two :) I am tired as well but luckily since I teach I can go home and nap around 4:30. We go for our first ultrasound on Tuesday... So thrilled to hear and see a heartbeat!

by freymom

this baby is different from the first.. i still have the nausea pretty regularly, still having headaches.. but he exhaustion is probably more due to my 1 year old than just the pregnancy.. I hope this nausea lets up soon

by p_assionate

mine is still here and my other thinks i am going to kill him with my mood swings

by nicolenzach10

Well I must say I am so happy I am no longer spending my day in the bathroom sick anymore. Yet I feel 10 times more tired. I cant stop craving stuffing and gummy bears, its really a pain. Like they say every one is different.

by ekellogg10

I just hit my 12 weeks on Mother's day! My energy level has gone up so I can finally keep up with my 1 and a half year old son who is excited to be a big brother. He will be 2 when I have my baby.

by familywoman

I am a plum! I can't wait for the baby to start moving!

by Ashperry85

I just hit the begining of my 12th week. I never really had morning sickness... but I feel tired all the time.... I need to kick up the excerise.....

by julesjules316

So happy I'm finally in the 2nd trimester

by Yaya1520

Well I'm officially 12 weeks, and I seem to be getting more fatigued, and the headaches are definitely growing in severity & frequency. However, I believe the "all-trimester" sickness has subsided, hope I don't jinx myself! Food aversions are killing me though, and I'm ALWAYS hungry! grrr! Looking forward to better days.....

by StaceMac

Lucky me i never had m/s but im sure it will come soon and my energy is bac -12 weeks =)

by RaylnS

I just hit week 12 and I am soo exhausted! I can harly keep my eyes open. :(

by naomi0198

Feeling relieved that I have made it to the 12 week mark. Morning sickness is still hanging around a bit, but has eased up a little. Still tired as ever!

by KimberlyJon

I agree about systems going away around week 11/12. I just finished my 12th week and feel great! I am starting to show a little bit. I still feel it looks like a fat pouch but it is getting firmer. I get to hear the heartbeat on Monday. My husband and I can't wait!!

by mrsemillydales

I'm 12 weeks today and still feeling exhausted and nauseas. Bathroom dashs have lessened though!

by melodybaber

I too @ 12 weeks now and still extremely fatigued and while I haven't really been sick before now... I have been the past few days.. and like mcoleman- my crave has been mash potatos, as well as rice, french fries, and grits..

by kanderson1908

i just hit 12 weeks. I still have morning sickness but i have more energy which is nice. i was wondering if the m/s subsides even if you had it realy bad, i have had it so bad i lost about 17 punds and had to be put on medication. i am really looking forwawrd to wanting to eat again

by apachekitten

I feel ike its getting better, but then just as soon as I think that... i feel like im back in sick and tired land...

by KnittingMomToBe

I have been very moody and it is finally going away. This is my first pregnancy. So I am really scared.

by jewelfromabove

now that I'm 12 weeks the nausea is gone, but I still can't really eat anything. This baby is so picky bout what it wants to eat. Sometimes I can eat something one day that I can't eat the next. Its so weird. I don't mind so much now though cause it helps me keep the weight off.

by cives1775

I am truley feeling much better! However I still have to have kool aid first thing in the morning...it keeps me form getting sick! I can't wait to get to my energy back!

by edelhauser2010

I feel so much better now! All i am craving are blueberries and orange sherbert!

by fluttersby

12 weeks today, and the nausea still there... the fatigue seems to be worse, though that could be because this is a very busy week with my brothers wedding coming up, and my newest symptom that is wreaking havoc on my body is sevear heartburn! holy crap... i have had to sleep almost sitting upp the last few nights, bc it's that bad! anyone else?

by Jaye_Fraser

I'm at 12 weeks, my morning sickness ended two weeks ago and only consisted of a nauseous feeling. However, I'm extremely tired now and have headaches off and on!

by pjhahm14

I have not been sick either, but about a week ago I started getting heartburn,very lightly.

by gosborn

feel pretty good today. This is my second pregnancy and it was a very difficult first trimester. I never felt this sick with my first child.

by jmyers23

woo hoo passed the first trimester! Curious to see what the second has in store...

by myliltiger

no nausea here but the dizziness hit for the first time on the subway this morning. fun times, considering new yorkers don't care to give up their seat:)

by loflo1

So happy I got to hear the heart beat yesterday! What a sweet sound! Big Brother Camden was so excited to hear "Lucy" for the first time!

I'm 12 weeks pregnant now and feel like normal, have been all the time. This is my second child and with my first I was nausius for 10 weeks but not this time. I have no symptoms of being pregnant and I love it, can't wait until I can feel the baby and do the ultrasound :)

by minikorven

You are so lucky you're energy is coming back! I didn't suffer from morning sickness, but boy am I ever tired. I went for an early ultrasound the other day and I can't believe how much the baby is moving around at just 12 weeks! I cant' wait until I can actually feel it.

by KristyC81

by robin2184

I hit my 12 week mark yesterday. Still getting m/s but seems worse at night, not all day like it was. Having a hard time digesting my food and almost fainted on Sunday, thought it was from the heat too, but realized I have a cold or sinus infection. Im hoping the m/s soon stops so I can feel somewhat normal again.

by foxyjoseph

I have more energy and I am not as tired. But I am still running to the bathroom a lot during the night. BLAH I have been have a lot of headaches and mood swings... Dizziness not so much... 12 weeks is amazing! :)

by uniqueme25

After miscarrying last year, and now I am almost 12 weeks, EVERY day that I wake up with my breasts killing me, or the nauseous feeling, I FEEL thankful and blessed. I remember when it all went away real fast in a day, and that is when we lost our baby. So, take care of yourselves, and be happy that you are showing signs of being pregnant, every single day.

by tracyj2472

12 weeks tomorrow!!! so freaking excited...still exhausted though

by mrsross71208

Im 12 weeks pregnant and just got a new job- i am /was previously serving and at university, but my DH and I felt that this would be more stable income for mat leave. Im just starting to show the tiniest bit, and I cant help but feel guilty for not letting my employer know. any suggestions/experiences?

by Sarah.and.Steven

I too have been so exhausted, I didnt know if it was all in my head or if I was just truly tired but after falling asleep during dinner I knew it was the baby. Sure am glad all that is behind me now. I also work full time, in school for the summer (2 classes) and I am planning a Wedding...Sept 18 is the big day!

by daynabme

Hit 11 weeks and morning sickness vanished but is replaced with a headache, but still all smiles

by Jadeink16

For the past two days i've felt amazing compared to the severe morning sickness that i've had for the past 12 weeks! I thought it would never end!!!

by kristinshultz

YAY!!!! IM 12 WEEKS TODAY.. SUPER EXCITED. I GET TO HEAR MY BABY'S HEARTBEAT ABD SEE MY BABY ON FRIDAY.. SO EXCITED.

by AwesomeAmazing

I'm about to hit 12 weeks and I'm feeling energy one minute and exhaustion the next. It's been hot outside and I can't be out for 5 mins without feeling so warm, even while I'm downing cold water. I guess it will be an indoor summer for me :) I had a huge lunch today for the first time in awhile so maybe my appetite is getting back to normal. I don't think I've gained anything yet, but will probably start today!

by vivasuzi

i just turned 12 weeks. i'm hungry all the time and i even dream about food! i'm still nauseous but it seems to be a little better!

by dannygirl32387

i was fine with my morning sickness up until last week.....i thought i was luck ....unfortunatley it hard! VERY hard! and it seem to get worse every day!

by mistymarie123

OMG, I just couting down the days until week 12. I am 11 weeks today and the nausea and vomiting has been a daily battle. I really hope when I hit week 12 its gone like you!!

by Amypeyton

Yep, I have more enery now...but I have had a couple of times where I got dizzy...

by michelle81583

I am exhausted all the time still, I hit 12 weeks yesterday. I'm also working and attending college. I am getting the dizziness more now too :( haha. I guess it's convenient that I never got morning sickness!

by branlynn

I still have morning sickness (all day long)... almost on week 13 now. I have really bad migranes and dizzy spells as well. I hope the baby will be good once it's out cuz it's a pain in the butt now!

by sleepingb627

by mommy2be2120

Well im 12 weekz still feeling the nausea, bad headaches, bad cramps, and even a little chest pains too. But other than that my eating habits are picking up to it use to slow but now progressing

by williams_11

Feeling pretty good but need to remind myself every day that MY pregnant body and experience is mine only... i.e. don't get wrapped up in comparing yourself to everyone else wondering if you're 'normal'. As long as I take good care of myself with diet and exercise, my body is going to do what it needs/wants to do. Some women start to show right away and some dont. Some puff up, some don't. I'm hoping for my arms and legs to stay stable and to only grow a little bullet in front! lol. I'm "showing" but it's really just my over the top gassy tummy (no fun)... This in between stage can be uncomfy. There should be a T-shirt for us saying, "Not just gaining weight for the hell of it, I'm pregnant!" :)

by angelalinna

I feel great just wish I would stop spitting yuck!

by Ambril05

I'm in my 12th week!! So excited to have kicked the nausia, but still extreamly tired. I haven't been gotten to hear the hear beat yet, but got an ultrasound today and I see my little aliens face and hand!! Soooo freakin unbelievably cute!!

by xpqx11

I'm 12 weeks! I'm really blessed. I'm still tired here and there, starting to experience some swelling with my feet :(

by FertileMyrtle87

so wished my nausea was gone.........................ugh......wish i could crawl under a rock

by yellowstreek30

I'm 12 weeks and 2 days, and I still have the worst m/s ever! I feel like it's never going to end :(

by culindz23

Still waiting for the nausea to subside. I guess maybe I'll be one of those who has it up until week 14 or so. Getting more and more energy. And seriously wish the evil witch inside me would just go away!

by leahethompson

I'm starting to finally feel better! The naps are shorter and the nausea has calmed down. YAY!

by Kimdoodles

im still having morning sickness and i feel depressed all the time i hope it goes away soon

by LoveDance2010

WELL TODAY I AM 12 WEEKS AND I PUKED MY GUTS UP! NOTHING IS GETTING BETTER FOR ME!

by LIVSMAMI908

by nicdur

I hope that part about energy picks up for me at 12 weeks. I am almost there in a couple of days. I am always tired.

by Kerseys11

dizziness and migraines have been hitting me this week. Not fun but i'm looking forward to my second trimester!!

by angsmith505

I hit week twelve tomorrow, and Ive never felt more tired :-(.. I though my nausea was going away, but othe last two days hanve been terrible. I cant eat more than a birds share of food and Im hungry every 1.5-2 hours. I hope this gets better soon.

by femia3

When is it normal to start showing?

by HollyAlyse

I'm 12 weeks and 1 day and my morning sickness is still at it's peak. I feel just awful. The fatigue has decreased a bit, although I'm lucky if my eyes are still open after 10pm. The dizziness has gotten worse, although that's to be expected. I'm waiting to start feeling fantastic. Hopefully I don't take after my grandmother who had morning sickness for all 9 months with all 7 of her pregnancies! Yikes!

by BeachMeyer

haha i was craving mashed potatoes and gravy like everyday for at least a week it was crazy lol... im so happy i dnt have morning sickness anymore but i did notice the dizziness setting in ...and im on my second preg. i deff noticed that my belly is showing a lot faster this time and my boobs lol huge! i didnt fit into preg. clothes with the first one but i already cant button my jeans..sigh..

by hisbbygurl21

I am 12 weeks now and can safely say I went without nausea for an entire week! Although I broke that record yesterday by throwing up really badly :( but oh well, they say, if it doesn't disappear completely, it occurs much less! It's still better than what I had before (everyday-all-day-long-nauseousness!) I did notice I have more energy where before I couldn't even get out of bed, every day felt like I had some major flu.. I have zero cravings and just recently started having my appetite back...I couldn't down any food before..hopefully, it all gets better in this second trimester! :)

by FinallyMommyToBe

i dont think the nausea going anywere......

by dgregg85

I will be 12 weeks on Monday and I am just now starting to get some energy back, this is all new to me, I was not like this with my first one!! I hope it will pass with the first trimester!

by doyle4078

Well, I'm 12 weeks and my husband just joined the Navy. We have a 7 month old already and while this one is a surprise, it's a welcome one. Here's the kicker though: Double strollers are such a pain to shop for! My advice to anyone who's pregnant with the first and might want another close behind: Buy a Graco travel system stroller the first time. Then later, sell it and buy a Graco Tandem stroller, but keep your car seat from the previous travel system! You can use it for the new baby and it will fit into a Graco Tandem Stroller(it's made to). I made the mistake of buying an Evenflo. I LOVE IT, but they don't make a tandem stroller I can put the old car seat into, so now I have to buy everything from scratch. Bummer. This time, I'm getting a Graco and saving myself the hassle.

by thebrookefam

For some reason, as I approached 12 weeks, my sickness got worse, but I'm starting to have a little more energy outside of being sick. The weirdest thing I've craved so far is a can of spaghetti-O's with meatballs. :)

by musicalangel1985

I'm 12 wks and I'm sooo tired all the time. My 14 month old keeps me so busy though. Between her, work and this pregnancy I'm so exhausted.

by ashann87

I just started being nauseous last week. The only thing I can keep down in the morning is a fruit smoothie.

by mindywilliams

I am 12 weeks along and I still can't shake this morning sickness! Maybe 13 weeks will be my lucky time?? :)

by soperjooli

THIS IS WEEK 12 FOR ME AND I STILL NOTHING TASTE THE SAME FOR ME AND IM EXTREMELY TIRED.

by TANYALUVV

Happty Friday! I'm 12 weeks today and has had this same headache for the past week...tylenol is not working at all! I go to the dr today!

by tdavis127

I'm feeling more energetic and my nightly "morning" sickness is less frequent..yet am now getting frequent headaches :(

by jescee86

Will be 12 weeks tomorrow. I feel a lot better with the morning sickness, although it was so bad I am still taking my Zofran "just in case". But I am definitely more tired than ever now. I was off work the last three days and even though I did get some cleaning and cooking done, I mostly slept!! Feeling more energized today and PRAYING it lasts!!

by Everchanging

i'm 12 weeks and still puking!!! uggghhhhhh!

by sweetpeatoro

I have not had any morning sickness or had weird cravings either. A little more tired than normal....but I can deal with that. I am starting to wonder if things are going alright because I feel like I should be suffering more. I am at 12 weeks and seeing the dr. for the first time next wed.

by shrubbygirl

12 weeks today! The tiredness isnt gone yet, headaches have started, but my libedo has increased! Thank goodness for something!

by kutekate5588

I am feeling a lot better now, but I can't ever get enough sleep. I got to bed at 8:30 or 9 and get up at 8:30 or 9...I am exhausted all the time. My day off I take 2 hour naps...and then dread the rest of the week when I won't get any nap at all.

by caymarks

today i feel so tired and hungry. thank god my trips to the bathroom has minimized, as i spent most of my time throwing up and have lost about 35 lbs. Now i can enjoy my food :-D

by JovelySan23

ugh headaches are so overwhelming ....:(

by Carenam77

ugh headaches are so overwhelming ....:(

by Carenam77

mcoleman, I have been craving potaoes and gravy, too! The morning sickness SEEMS to be easing up but I am cautious about it. I have been VERY dizzy and had bad headaches this entire pregnancy and that isn't easing up at all. I am still pretty tired but have had some medical complications the past couple weeks and my recovery does seem to be speeding up and I am feeling better.

by tkbbsmommy06

It feels good to be past the 1st trimester!!!!

by BabyMarek

I thought it was over then BAM the morning sickness comes back full force. I have lost over 7 pounds so far.

by danirobertson79

Yes week 11 is the first week ive kept food down!!! but definatly more tired and I get dizzy everytime I stand up... but it is so much better then the start!!!!

by laurenNray

I just started my 12th week and the nausea, gagging, vomiting, etc. is still going strong... but now to top it off, i'm getting dizzy and started having migranes! great.

by jaycee27

Why do I feel worse with fatigue last week and still into this week....thought that was suppose to get better ugh.....and yes the headaches have returned grrr. Dear. 2nd trimester - please let the normalcy come back soon :), we miss you!

by coop81

by mommy2be0801

I never had any morning sickness, but was always very tired all throughout my 1st trimester. Now, I am finally getting better sleep at night and look forward to a much more energetic 2nd trimester!

by jackieehler

I'm going into my 12th. Nausea is down, still craving OJ and mashed potatoes (not together).

I just hit 12 weeks, and the dizziness and headaches just hit me. I'm still really tired just about every day. I just want my energy back.

by amionna@yahoo.com

Just hit week 12. Still nauseous and exhausted all the time. Feeling overly sensitive and probably terrorizing my poor fiance. Here's hoping that the week 12 hoorays start setting in soon!

by lizzardelf

I'm 12wks and feel normal again. My advice for headaches, I realized when they start coming on im hungry, I use to be able to go without eating before pregnancy now I noticed my body is alerting me to eat and eat now, so I eat, headache recedes.

by gabie23

I'm happy that i don't get nauseas anymore! i just reached my 12 weeks today! I have had a headache since yesterday tho but it's a slight one!

I'm 12 weeks today. I stil have my "pump" in that helps battle my sickness. Hopefully getting a lower dose of reglan today and can be weened off of this. I am also having my worst week of being tired. Hopefully this is preparing me for the most energy I've ever had!

by amber_gunnb

Man... i'm still throwing up every morning and am 12 weeks along. Hope the nausea/vomiting ends soon!

by laura.v.moretti

You guys are so lucky! Im 12 weeks pregnant and have been sick every day since 5 weeks. maybe 2 or 3 days i was ok. i hope this passes soon :/

by Ashleylovescody07

i'm 12 weeks and feeling great! My energy actually returned about 3 weeks ago and so did my appetite... the first few weeks were really rough, but i am definitely feeling pretty good!

by ilovejud

I just hit 12 weeks but stil having the constant nausea.. I've been sick every day since I was 5 1/2 weeks. I'm looking forward to th second trimester when everyone tells me I'll feel re-energized and less nausous! I did, however, have an ultrasound today and it was amazing to see the lil peanut bouncing around inside me, moving its arms all over :)

by nikig3382

Itsreally awesome just hit 12 weeks today and i have not thrown up in 3 days i hope everyone is right about once you hit 2 trimester you feel 100% better i just hope my energy returns!

by ashleyrn1210

I'm at 12 weeks and my m/s hasn't magically disappeared. I hope it goes away soon. I want food to taste good again! I'm a little nervous that my gag reflex will kick in every time I take a prenatal though, because right now taking them almost always sends me running for the bathroom.

by badrelijen

headaches and dizziness may get more intense? :( WHY!

by okuandpengu

Like so many others I was hoping that all my symtoms would majically disappear by this time. That is not the case. Now in addition to all day sickness, sleeplless nights, mood swings, bloating, gas, heat flashes, tight pants, swollen breasts, growing belly pains and fatigue I also have the sinus headaches, and dizzy spells. While I am excited and happy to be pregnant it is unfortunately overshadowed by all the not so fun symptoms that seem to multiply each day. And to top it all off I have a hectic schedule with work and school that is not going to slow down anytime soon. This first time mommy to be is dreaming of some R&R.

by shopgirl24

Yay!!!! Im 12 weeks today!!!

by Jennak10

I will be 12 weeks on Tuesday and I havn't been sick AT ALL! I have been sooo lucky! The cravings have been there... salty popcorn and apple juice and now I am just ready to know what we are having to start getting prepared! :)

by Steffanie0407

just hit 12 weeks =) m/s just once in the morning! but have started getting the migraines last week =/ no worries cant wait for this part to be over and ENJOY pregnancy < />

by nykoleareas

twelve weeks+ nausea is getting better. I haven't upchucked for about 2 weeks. Looking forward to second half. I eat allot and always have a snack on hand that helps with the sick feeling. I also chew sugar free gum for that bad taste in my mouth!

by ariesmoon

im 12 weeks pregnant today!!! and soooooo happy cant wait for this little baby to come out and for the second trimester i hope it goes faster than the first!

by TovaMac

12 Weeks today and I still have m/s, but it seems to be tapering. I'll have a couple of good days and then a couple of bad. My appetite is returning, however any type of meat is simply out of the question. Migraines and pressure behind my eyes has been worse, but it's better than m/s!

by meghancmm84Wed21413

12 weeks 1 day and had my first dizzy spell 2 days ago (right before the email came). Got up to pee (what's new) and fell in the hallway. Kinda scary! Now I know to expect it and to get up more slowly. Can't wait for the energy to return so I can get back to a normal work schedule!.

by maureenjb

I',m not throwing up as often, unless I go too long without eating. The only problem is that while I have plenty of aversions I don't really have many cravings... food just doesn't sound good. I'm hoping my appetite will return soon...I worry that I won't get the right nutrients for my little joey (my hubby's nickname for the baby:) )

by lotusblue84

I am in week 12 and my nausea/morning sickness has not gone away, nor does it seem to be letting up at all. In fact, it seems to have gotten worse! I have lost 6lbs in the past month+ and I am super tired.

by lulabellalula

Just hit 12 weeks today and I still have m/s...ughhh! I now am having headaches and dizziness too. Hoping it gets better in the next 2 weeks! We saw the baby today and it was kicking and moving all over the place:)

by galicia0327

i'm 12 weeks and the nausea is finally subsiding, The cravings and increased appetite is still around especially in the morning and late night. No headaches yet knock on wood. So far so good. Hopefully my doctor will take me off of my hormone treatment soon

by dmgreenup

by BettyBoo1011

I haven't been throwing up but definitely nausea all day everyday. It's certain smells! Ugh, have had some cravings, chocolate, gravy, tomatoes with oil and vinegar from Subway haha. Had a little spike in energy but I started working out a bit as I'm overweight and need to get it under control and have been SO tired because of it. Also my dog had puppies and they are up alllll night! Last night was the first real night me and my fiancé laid awake because of it. A harbinger of things to come! So tired today now =[

by valerievanity

i am just in my 12th week. i am still super tired. i still have low levels of nausea that throw me into dry heaves almost every morning right when i wake up. i stopped having migraines when i first got prego, but they are starting to come back. my libido was up in the 4-9 week time frame, but now i am starting to feel weird. i liked having higher levels of hormones in my first trimester. it kept me active and up to speed with things. now i am feeling low abd slow again.

by julsgirl

I am 12 weeks today. (: My nausea has faded and I am starting to get my energy level back! Yay!

by MrsMurphy1

I've been feeling really good so far. I did have Sinisitis which was horrible and had to be put on a zpack. Really worried since I didn't want to take any meds!

by jenngilmore

I was 12 weeks yesteray. This is my first pregnancy and was made possible by IVF. I am expecting fraternal twins. I had unbelievable nausea from weeks 5-9 but it seems to have passed. I don't have too many problems with being tired, I just make sure to go to bed early and get 9 hours of sleep. I have recently started working out on my treadmill (just walking) and I think it has helped! For all those still experiencing nausea, here are some tips my nutrisionist gave me... suck on ginger candy or pepermint candy drink ginger ale (the kind that says made with real ginger) Canada Dry is usually the best Buy the homemade mollasses from a farm store or farmers market. A teaspoon of this takes nausea away immediately. It is heaven!! A must have !! Ginger cookies made with real ginger. Make sure your stomache never gets empty. Even if you have to take a pack of crackers in your purse with you. I keep peanut butter crackers, ginger cookies and ginger ale on my desk. I snacked through out the day. I still have only gained 3 pounds by doing this ! And finally ask your OBGYN if the prenatal vitamins can be aiding in your nausea. They are usually high in iron which can make this worst !! Ask if you can go off them and start folic acid till the symptoms fade. This advice was given to me by my fertility doctor. This is an amazing journey and after 9 years of trying to concieve I hope it just gets better. Good luck to all you ladies.

by bluzeman64

I'll be 12 weeks in a couple days, and i'm still having bad nausea even with the Zofran that my dr put me on 2 weeks ago. I'm waiting for the day I wake up feeling normal. This is my 2nd pregnancy and my first one was complete opposite.

by scorpiomom2005

I was 12 weeks on Monday, felt great yesterday....not feeling so good today :( very tired also

by jennie0778@yahoo.com

I've been relatively well ... just super exhausted all the time. I hit 12 weeks today & was hoping for the relief everyone talks about. Guess I need to keep waiting! Hadn't been nauseous or having headaches, but those also started today. Happy 12 weeks to me, I suppose!

by mrscoach23

I feel so much better this week! More energy but hormones still a little crazy.

by msmandia1

Omg..all I do is cry.....about everything and it wont stop once it starts geez im gonna be blind before my baby comes im all cried out at week 12

by Msmarie04

I'm 12wks, I've had the nausea, headaches,feeling tired, and pain in my hips, for some reason this last week I've started to have a lot of vomiting I thought since I hadn't had any early on that it had passed me by, I thought I was home free..... Guess not

by kiscena78

I am at the end of my 12th week, my nausea is mostly gone, I am still gagging alot. I know it sounds weird: but now that I am feeling better, I dont feel pregnant. I know he or she is there but I feel normal again. I guess I have been so sick for so long, it feels not normal to feel good.

by hollywally

Sour jolly ranchers are the best to help with nausea and swamp mouth!

by Kimweimer1128

I am 12 weeks and 2 days, I normally feel like I'm dying in the morning! Today is somewhat better, I still feel a little nauseous but I haven't actually vomited yet so that's good! I'm hoping all of the nausea will go away soon so that I can enjoy eating again! I've lost 8 lbs since being pregnant, but I am slightly overweight so I guess it was a given I would lose weight if I'm not taking in all those calories I usually do...

by cydni_g

I have been waiting for this day..........I'm 12 weeks today!! Finally going to tell our family and friends on Christmas Eve. It's been fun keeping it from everyone but It will be nice telling them too.

by virginianunez

Im at week 12 and the M/S has gotten a little better.. im no longer sick ALL DAY LONG, just in the mornings now. however, today my tongue started to get numb.. and it's starting to freak me out! has anyone else experienced "numb tongue"? also, i've been drinking only water for like, 6 wks now.. is there anything else that is good to drink?

by NBleau

Congrats to all! I am finishing my 12th week...I have felt great! Guess I am lucky, not tired, no cravings, no nausea...I got nothing! Maybe slightly sore breasts and some lower back pain just this week. I am starting to tell people and like to see each friends and family member reactions. I am in the Christmas spirit and looking forward to the second tri-mester I hear so many good things about! Not showing so going to hold off on telling work for a bit. Good luck to all and enjoy your holiday season.

I'm 12 weeks today and i still feel sick all the time as well as being tired i can't seem to to do anything this is my third preganacy it's been five years but it's far the most tiring, but exicited about my new little and cant wait to feel like me again... Question I've still been sleeping on my stomach is this a bad thing?

by lilquese

I am 12 weeks today! Been kind of "gaggy" for the last month, and meat is a bit of a turn off! I have been getting the headaches...and had no idea why until I read the 12 week update on the bump! I feel good, but just tired and getting headaches once or twice a week. Happy week 12 to all! We are a third of the way there!

by Brobs

Goodbye nausea, hello indigestion! My 12th week and starting to show! =)

by apeeh17

I found out I was pregnant when I was 5 weeks along! I took two at home pregnancy tests - both positive! The next day I went to the doctor to confirm it! It was positive! They suggested I have an ultrasound 3 days later since I had Endometriosis so bad - They wanted to make sure I didn't have a Fallopian Tube Pregnancy! My husband didn't go with me because he had started a new job and we didn't think it was anything for him to miss work for! My friends that had previously been pregnant told me you can't see anything that early and he wouldn't be missing out on anything! I went alone and the doctor informed me before I even laid down that we probably wouldn't be able to see anything since it was so early! As soon as he laid it on my stomache - And he didn't even have to move it around - He said, "Oh I see both of their heartbeats!" I was like, "What are you talking about?" as I looked at the screen confused since it was my first pregnancy and I had never had an ultra sound! He said, "Your twins!" I was in shock and kept asking, "I hope you are joking!?!" He said no - That he took his job very seriously! At least my husband was really excited because it took me about a month to get over the shock! Now I am more excited than ever - I know I have good support from family and friends! We'll just have twice the love now! I should be thankful that I even got pregnant because the doctors told me to be prepared for a hard struggle to get pregnant! Well, they were wrong because I got pregnant 1 month after my husband and I got married! The first two months about I was so sick! I would feel nauseated all day, every day! I could hardly move and I didn't want to do anything but sleep! I didn't like meat and I stopped liking all my favorite foods! Now I'm starting to feel great and not even pregnant!

by jpatterson75

i am 12 weeks 6 days and had my ultra sound today to test for down syndrome. OMG! the baby is no longer a peanut, it looks like a BABY. we saw the chin, lips, nose chest , belly, spine, 5 fingers, everything so perfectly! The lady even said that not to paint any walls yet but she has been doing this for years and said that she sees something else, its a boy! they will confirm at 20 wks. We were shocked to not only see the baby like that but find out sex so soon and we saw the baby move on his own, he waved and jumped around! Best visit so far!

by dezzii

Still tired and definitely the dizziness and headaches! I had no idea there was something called "swamp mouth" but I have that too!

by MarchMay03

I am so excited!! We're telling our family Christmas Eve, I just turned 12 weeks today (Wednesday), perfect timing outside of the "scary stages".... Time is moving right along, I feel good. My nausea is not as bad as it was a couple weeks ago (I was highly nauseated for about 3-4 weeks straight ALL day)... but now, I just can't let myself get too hungry, or else the Incredible Hulk comes out and it feels like I can eat a horse... Anyway, Taking a bath at night lets me sleep peacefully all night... and my lunch time, around 12 I take a 15-20 minute nap, which helps with nausea and my mood. HAPPY 12 WEEKS!!!

by tylesha2011

sucking on something sour sucking on something sour sucking on something sour lol hahahahahahahahahaha how funny

by nicky0891

I am 12 weeks and have not been sick once!!! Praise God!!! I did get a little queezy if I waited too long to eat. I am craving V8 tomato juice, grapefruits, and oranges. I just can't get enough stuff with acid in it. They say when you crave that, it's a girl. I guess we will see...........

by afind

My hubby and I can't wait to hear the heartbeat and see our little baby on ultra sound again! I am counting down til week 20 to find out gender!

by allisonhinkle

by kristy9203

I am now 12 weeks 2 days and i am so happy i love being pregnant

by BRITPERKINS10

I agree with some of the other women... at week 11 I couldn't believe what a difference I felt- less nauseous and more energized.... I'm still pretty tired easily.. but i'm almost to week 13 and hope it just keeps getting better and better :)

by Schneiky16@gmail.com

hooray for 2nd trimester! i was about to die with the m/s every day!

by mjlower

I just had a 12 week ultrasound and my baby looked like an alien. It actually looked like one of those aliens with the big, bulbous heads that point at the bottom. The doctor said it looked normal, but it freaked me out a little...

by nataliejm28

I have been very lucky and not been sick the whole 12 weeks I was tired though, that is gone now I have lower back pain, and a hard time sleeping the entire night. But thank my lucky stars everyday that everything is good. So excited for the next appointment.

by nglass143

Have a terrible bladder infection!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

by NM303

I have more energy but if i go off my nausea medicine i am still horribly sick :( I am hoping after next week it gets better!! I can't believe the baby is a size of a plum! Thats huge!

by jashetler

I have actually been feeling worse as I have progressed in my pregnancy. I am 12 weeks today and don't feel good most of the time especially at night. Has anyone been vomiting more frequently and feeling more tiered later in their pregnancy?

by MaricelaB78

12 weeks finally! I know waiting for the baby to come will be my biggest challenge! I am craving curries - all kinds, the spicier the better. Am finally feeling less tired, was sleeping 8 hours during the week and almost 12 on weekends with naps. Am showing a little but since I'm usually big, it just looks like I've put on weight. :)

by astromei

I noticed for me that the more active I can be, the less m/s I get. My husband and I went on our yearly rock climbing trip when I was at 10 weeks. That was the best I felt this entire pregnancy, climbing and hiking around in the woods. As soon as we got home and I was back at my desk job, it was back to randomly throwing up and feeling drained beyond belief. I am just about 12 weeks now and finally am feeling the end to the nausea, but maybe a few extra walks throughout the day will help some of you ladies still dealing with it. The fresh air helps too!

by ewyglend

My 1 trimester has been peaceful, no nausea, just sleepiness at work. So far this is peaceful baby...

by florepf

I hit 12 weeks today! I've definitely experienced the headaches and fatigue, but got luck yon the other symptoms. Hoping to at least get my energy back soon!

by vibrantstar

I am 12 and a half weeks and I am always sick. Every day all day! I can't eat any pantry or room temp foods. Cold foods taste best and dizziness and fainting has begun!

by maffuccisgirl6809

I am 12 weeks today. I still have the occasionally nausea, but I am more consumed by headaches, dizziness, and my nose and ears are congested!

by ajoli83

I wish I could say the same, I am still feeling pretty nauseous and exhausted. I am so ready to feel better and more energized!

by justbeachy214

I just hit 12 weeks, unfortunately still have the morning sickness. But the upside is it's put itself on a schedule and only hits me in the evenings, which makes my mornings and afternoons at work so much easier. Still feeling tired all the time, but I love napping so I'm not complaining.

by KayJ88

I'm 12weeks as of today and I'm still having 24/7 morning sickness :( I can't even watch cooking shows with out running to the bathroom and grocery shopping is out of the question...my hubby is doing that now. I was not sick like this with my son. I will be very happy when this stops and I can eat more than just apples, oranges and yogurt :)

by kristy9203

Im 11 weeks and I have had every symptom of morning sickness: headaches, nausea, bad heartburn, metallic taste, excessive saliva, dry hiving...it all u name i have it....and all people keep telling me is that ur almost there or thats a good sign....well its a sign from hell....i havent been able to really enjoy the thought of pregnancy.....my husband has been more of a roommate instead of a husband....but he is a good sport...i cant wait to have this baby...come on august!!!!!!!!!

by colleennchris09

The nausea induced by smells is still there, but I definitely have more energy. I don't need to take a nap every day.

by hollywoodgutterrose

I am 12 weeks today!!!! Haven't had nausea since about week 9 but I am exhausted! I think I could sleep 15 hours a day lol!! Also having horrible back and pain in my butt! My hips feel so tight I have to try and stretch them out before I can even think about getting comfortable in bed!!

by jwpg22

I am hitting my 13th week on Tuesday and have been so exhausted in the middle of the day the past couple weeks that I can barely stand working! On top of that, I have had horrible back pain shooting down my leg and hip. Anyone else having that this early?

by kern308

Starting to feel better. No more nausea! I've still been tired, though it hasn't been as bad. The mood swings are fewer and farther between. Though, it's been a struggle being in-between regular and maternity clothes. :-\

by jeffikamason

I have been so sick but today was such a great day i haven't been sick and i'm hoping this going to last but i got to see the baby for the first time and i don't care that i was sick because seeing whats growing inside of me make it worth it!!!!

by crod2009

I feel amazingly better now too! I'm just now twelve weeks and my nausea has been gone. It's definitely a great feeling. I've been craving tuna helper more than anything, haha. :)

by annemariemonaghan

i have been so sick for the last month and a half. i have been in the hospital 4 times to get fluids and try and keep things down. I can't wait until it goes away!

by lidz182

12 weeks today and feeling good! :) Mild nausea has been subsiding, appetite is still somewhat suppressed, but coming along a little better. Energy is still alittle on the low side--can't wait for that to pick up again. I do have a 10 month old as well so that might have a little to do with it! :)

by simela8

I'm also one of the lucky ones being 12 weeks... Never had any nausea what-so-ever, not tired, and my first craving was anything lemon. From that point on, I craved sweets like CRAZY. So far, it's been a breeze for me and I hope it stays like that!

by Mami2B2011

i will be 12 weeks on weds. and my morning sickness has just started and its not fun! lol I am still tired to not as tired as i use to be but def still tired lol

by achappel

I am just now 12 weeks and I have experienced the tiredness and sickness that started out everyday and now hits me every few days. The Dr. said it should get better soon and I should get more energy. Some days are great while others are a struggle...but it will be worth it! I do envy those that don't get sick. LOL!

by BonnieStovall

I have had a good first trimester minus the tiredness. Appsolutly no MS what so ever.

by MrsNyberg09

I am 12 week s today! For the past 2 months I've felt nausea, acid reflex and have had no energy> Plus I've decreased my caffeine intake so that blows! This has been a great week for me and I've felt a lot better, I'm very happy! Looking fwd to getting my energy back since i have a 6 years old already who wants me to play with her all the time! Good luck to you all!

by JENMOR86

by cheri22306

I turn 12 weeks tomorrow and am so excited. This is my first pregnancy and my miracle baby. My husband had testicular cancer 2 years ago and we were told we may never have kids. Nausea and vomiting are bad but woke up this morning with a headache to end all headaches. PIECE OF ADVICE: If you have constant nausea your neck may need to be adjusted by the chiropractor. It works wonders.

My nausea has been gone for a couple weeks now, just hoping it doesnt come back (crossing fingers) Good luck to all my other mom to be's out there!

by laurie10601

I am 12 weeks and have been lucky.. NO SICKNESS!! (except a little nausea from the prenatal vitamins) But I eat a TON of pickles and am tired all of the time. I have started to get dizzy when I take a shower, but if I sit down it seems to pass quickly.

by mharris_84

I have felt SO much better since week 10 and I am now starting week 12. I still feel drained really quickly but the nausea has gone down to nearly none. I'm starting to show already which puts a big smile on my face :) I'm excited to start my 2nd trimester and be able to enjoy the journey without so much nausea!

by Margaret101010

by binknang71

im still sick! is that bad? is somthing wrong??

by michellexhim

12 weeks tomorrow. Got an ultrasound yesterday. The baby was moving like crazy! I had no idea how much it moved before now. I obviously can't feel anything yet, which just makes it even crazier, because it was going nuts in there, summersaults, rolling over, swimming. :) It was the greatest thing in the world to watch.

by beirdneauk

Im 12 weeks today & my nausea has almost disappeared and im starting to feel a bit more energized. :) But now i get horrible headaches.

by MegFlan

No more nausea, not as many bathroom dashes, and so much more entergetic! Maybe now being pregnant will be more enjoyable :)

by jillthefantastic

m/s back with a bang....didnt hv it the whole of last week..this sucks....

by sianshyn

I have had no morning sickness, no nausea, and rare food cravings! If it wasnt for my ultrasound I would barely know I was pregnant. I hit 12 weeks on Friday! : )

by Tculpepper50

Felt baby fluttering yesterday and today. It was like nothing I'd ever felt before. definitely not digestion. The baby was moving like crazy at an 11 wk ultrasound, so I hoped I'd be able to feel it soon. It's exciting to know it's still in there, growing and moving. Even though I'm barely showing.

by beirdneauk

I got more tired, started throwing up and heartburn. At 23 yrs old and baby number 3, you would think i would learn by now! I hit week 12 today!

by SamanthaS10

I thought I had finally beat the Morning Sickness.. but I should have knocked on wood before I spoke! I have been feeling miserable all week.. I hope this is the worst and eases up this week.. :(

by gwenm1027

I hit 12 weeks tomorrow, finally I am not nauseated, not as tired and most of my food aversions have stopped. I feel more like myself again, I love it!

by GettingHitched13

Have anyone had extreme back pains during this week of pregnancy? I can't take it, I almost went to the hospital because it was so bad.

by TomikaM1

tommoro will be 12 weeks...besides the emotional rollercoaster...im finally feeling good again...and my tits look great...bahahaha

by dollfacemyers

When will the sickness go away?! I'm 12 weeks. Isn't it supposed to be gone by now? I barf every day, and am sick all day every day, it makes it impossible to do anything,like do my job at work, keep my house from becoming the pig sty that it is now, etc.... I know it'll all be worth it, but when will it end?

by miriamross

I hit my 12 week mark on thusday of last week still some nausea and fatigue. I crave potatoes and pepper jack cheese all the time. This is my second child so with a four year old running around it kinda hard to rest and plus i work second shift.

by momtobe2nd

I am 12 weeks today! Found out I was Preggo @ 8.5 weeks! I have PCOS and always had irregular periods, plus had been taken Prometium & Metform to hopefully regulate a menstrual cycle. Feb, came and I didnt get my period, so I did start having all the preggo ssymptoms; bloating, nasuea, and cramping! The funnu thing, is I feel pretty good now, I dont get nasuea, but do gag sometimes at food I cook, or other foods. Am starting to itch a bit around my bellly and breasts. :) I do feel kinda tired and with some lack of energy Have to go back to my OBGYN when Im 15 weeks to do all the further testing and have my 3rd ultrasound. Sometimes, I dont even feel pregnant, because there are days where I feel fine!

by qbanchic85

I'm 12 weeks and 2 days into my second pregnancy. Never had morning sickness with either pregnancy, and was not too tired with first one. This pregnancy, however, I can't seem to go 6 hours without needing a nap! My Mom was this way with my sister, the entire 9 months, and she was a sleeper from day one...I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Good luck ladies! Hope you all start feeling great soon!

by twinboysmama23

I so happy the morning sickness is gone at 12 weeks. At one time i had bursted a vessel in my stomach from vomiting so much that i was throwing up blood, i had to be rushed to the er and given 2 bags of fluid and zofran through iv... yes it was that bad and my sense of smell was so crazy that everything stunk to me.... im sooo happy that's over i feel for anyone who is still going through it. on the other hand i still have congestion which started at 6 weeks, its soo annoying. Anyway it was nice to vent. good luck and god speed to everyone.

by peanutsmom11

I wonder if I am toooo pregnant, I am only 12 weeks but I look like I am 5 months...thoughts anyone?

by styson1

I am 12 wks today. And I still feel yucky... :( I just cannot wait for this MS to go AWAY! It has taken over my life. And my sense of smell doesn't help any. As soon as I get a wiff of something yucky, I'm visiting the restroom. :(

by estelita2402

Finally have a lil more energy. I am 12 wks now. I was feeling soooo tired, up until a few days ago. Morning sickness has improved quite a bit too. We had our 1st ultrasound yesterday :) couldn't stop thinking about it last night- had trouble sleeping. hehe

by jamiee26

everyone feels so great but me..I want to cry (hormones) and nothing fits. I haven't gained a pound but my pants won't button or zip and my boobs are out of control. I'm not feeling very pretty today..

by adriennedeckard

I've been having nausea and sickness from 5-12 wks so far. Still hasn't gone away :( I've lost a substantial amount of weight. I just want to gain weight and stop getting sick!! I'm now 12wks 2 days and hoping for the best!!

by mommylyss

I am twelve weeks today and I feel great! My morning sickness is gone and I only feel nauseated when I don't eat for long periods. I have been getting some headaches but they're not terrible and my tiredness has gotten much better. It's my husband and my first child and we have another doctor's appointment this Thursday. Hoping to have an ultrasound and Doppler done :D

I'm 12 weeks and already feel a lot better, even though I am still more tired than usual and go to bed at 9:30. Morning sickness is gone. Sometimes I worry I feel good, because I forget I'm pregnant!

by aleradovic

I'm 12 weeks and still exhausted. Allergy season in Florida is killing me. Watering eyes, sinus trouble, and no good meds to take! Urg!

by Elizabeth Ceejay

im 12 weeks and my eating is OUT OF CONTROL!! still pretty tired and no headaches really moods are ALOT better! im enjoying being pregnant now :)

by babymommy90

Had my 12week sono yesterday and can't believe how much my lil nut is moving around, doc said my uterus is up high ( which im hoping its a girl) but everything else is goin fine beside getting dizzy while laying in bed.

by ProudMomma218

I am 11 weeks and been pretty blessed with very little nausea. I do get the headaches and dizziness once in a while. I have been on bedrest for the last 3 weeks so I get to sleep whenever I get tired, which is a lot. They just added another 2 weeks of bedrest and boy it does get boring but this is my first and we have been trying for about 4 years, we did fertility and lots of prayer. So I guess I can't complain.

by Tonyandlilia

I'm right at 12 weeks and I have been vomiting and nausea for the last 5 weeks. Hopefully it will stop.Headaches have just begun for me and I'm also craving mashed potatoes.

by jmgregory87

im 11 weeks and look like im 18 weeks :/ my morning sickness s horrrible i cant even go to my college classes in the morning, so i have to take online classes :(

by RachelLynnBurnes

Very excited!!! 12 weeks 1 day and I haven't had any real m/s. Headaches are the worst though. Heard babys heartbeat last week. Looking forward to the weeks ahead. Oh! I am a first timer!!!

by londarell

I will be 12 weeks tomorrow and I am still getting sick and feeling really tired. My ob did give me meds for the nausea and it helps. This is my second pregnancy and my last pregnancy was the worst. I visited the ER five different times and I had to take meds my entire pregnancy but as soon as I had my son, my sickness went compelety away. My best friend is pregnant with her third child and she never has been sick but she does get really tired.

by karen080882

I must say I am still so tired. I hate feeling this way :(

by rfarley78

Well no vomiting at all i feel great i'm 12 weeks as of yesterday I must say this is a good pregency :)

by janinedom

I'm 12 weeks 4 days. I'm still feeling very tired. I never had any problems with morning sickness and I have gained about 1 to 2 pounds. It is difficult trying to get in enough exercise with the lack of energy. I bought maternity pants last week because I've been so bloated, my pants feel uncomfortable now. I got to see my little one moving and kicking around last week (11 weeks exactly) for the NT testing ultrasound. Amazing the changes that take place in 4 weeks! I also heard the heartbeat for the first time at that appointment - a beautiful 167!!!

by sterry216

11 must be the magic number! I am feeling so much better, no nausea all week!!

by superbooty

i was told i was twelve weeks on the 27th. but i don't get it my last period was jan 11th. i don't get any of this the bump says i have eleven weeks. i just dont get this. this is my very first pregnancy i'm so confused. anyway i've been really sick since i pretty much found out i was pregnant. the nausea just doesnt stop. i get migranes too. i just want the nausea to go away.

by nblalz

Had to turn the radio off in the shower this morning because they were talking about cheese burger subs! Still cant stand meat but I hadn't gotten sick in 3 days.....I ended up getting sick this morning ugh! 12 wks 2 days today...hoping m/s will go away soon!

by crismark02

I'm actually starting to feel worse. Before the 12 week mark, I had nausea all day long and it seemed to get worse at nights. But never threw up, until now. When will it end!??!?

by sophary562

12 weeks today!! Got to throw up twice already today (and it's only 11:00), yay... Still feeling the nausea. Excited for the 2nd trimester!

by ashandpete

im 11 wks right now and i havent been too dizzy or nauseous but he headaches big time are killing me and im always tired !!! anyways all this will get better soon :D

by zguillot1

12 weeks 3 days today.. I'm excited to bring on the 2nd trimester!! :)

by Shawnaisastar

My nausea is gone! I can't say I crave stuff but I know when I am definitely not in the mood for something. I haven't had a headache in a few days but I have definitely been feeling more tired this week. I am 12 weeks and like 2 days now. My husband and I were thrilled to see a little baby yesterday on the sono with a strong heartbeat after experiencing two miscarriages since last July! Hope all contiunues to go well! :)

by SAGsoon2bSAJ

We hit 12 weeks yesterday and because we are now almost in the second trimester, we are finally comfortable with telling everyone we are PG. It's so nice not to have to keep the secret anymore. My regular clothes still fit fine and I see no bump, probably because I never had a flat stomach to begin with. My shirts are getting snug in the front, and I am using a rubber band to help expand the waist a bit. I had a little nausea a month ago or so and threw up once. I'm only tired because I dont sleep well at night - too many bath room breaks, and I was never a great sleeper anyway. But I never had the fatigue that so many women describe. The only food cravings I've noticed are that I crave junk food, all the stuff I am not supposed to have. I am still breaking out like mad, I hate it so much that I just want to hide! I now have to make sure I always carry with me something to drink, since I am now thirsty 24/7. And of course there's a few other annoying symptoms I need not describe, but baby is being good to me and my body - I am so lucky. I had no idea how it would be like to be pregnant, I didnt think it would be this smooth! Best of luck to all you ladies going into the second trimester - no matter how we all feel, we've made it this far, and it's a big milestone!

by 870girl

ugh I was very much looking forward to the vomiting being over at this point Im going on 13 weeks on monday and I just had a drs appointment she proscribed me zofran to keep me from vomiting because Ive lost weight. my mood swings never existed until I hit 12 weeks head achs have def started and Im not having a fun time being pregnant which I waited two years to be =( its kind of upsetting!

by shmoop13

This is my 4th. I started showing about 9 weeks. I was so umcomfortable, I had to switch to maternity pants/skirts. I was lucky with no m/s or headaches. I only have had to deal with extreme fatigue. My other kids are quite older: my oldest will be 19 when this one comes. Then 13 year old then one that will be just about 10. I am definetely starting over. I have a couple of the kids old baby blankets and 2 sleepers. Nothing else. So I get to go SHOPPING!!

by prittfamily98

I just 12 weeks today.. I'm actually getting more excited as the weeks roll by.. people usually crave sweets and chocolate, but not me.. I crave alot of salty snacks.. Its hard to stay away from them when the craving is so strong.. Any tips on getting rid of those cravings..??

by oceguera1991

I had a little nausea but i was also sick so that may have had something to do with it. I'm 12 weeks and still had no unusual cravings.

by mikenike2005

Is it safe to take extra strength Tylenol for headaches at 12 weeks? Better to break them in half or not take them at all?

by vivechkela

Is anyone else gagging all the time?? For no reason at all!!!

by Kristin316

im 12 weeks and very tired and have horrible headaches

by lolitabonita427

Im 12 weeks and just found out! Since i had no idea i was even pregnant through the whole 1st trimester im kind of nervous how the rest will pan out.

by Jenneanelynn

I just hit 12 weeks today and am physically exhausted all the time sometimes i dont even want to make dinner which is bad cause my hubby cant cook.....but this is our first child and I am just really nervous cause i have endometrosis and am curious how it will affect my pregnancy

by jerryslady291

I am at the 12 week mark too...first baby...and although the ALL DAY nausea seems to have subsided, I still get nauseous at times. Energy? What is that? I still have none. Can't sleep through the night and am exhausted most of the day. Oh...and the newest symptom...headaches...made their first appearance last week. Hope all these crappy feelings pass soon. I'm exhausted. On a positive note though...heard the baby's heartbeat this week! And Friday I have my first ultrasound...can't wait! :)

by AnaV77

anyone else having hot flashes?? I am 12 weeks and they just started with a vengence...

by kbeckwi3

Happy to be nearing the end of my 1st trimester! I'm thankful that I have not had morning sickness at all, but I do currently have a bad cold and it isn't fun since i can't take any real medicine. AND what about the hormones? Will the acne that has taken over my face, neck, & back ever go away? Wish I could find something to help....I'm really craving that glow!

by Melissa5013

im 12 weeks, and still very tired, headaches are horrible. Still no energy to do anything! Nausea comes and goes, it's werid.... right now i crave chilli, cant eat anytype of meat.......cant wait for this to end!!!!!!!!!!

I am on my first day of week 12.. and i have had VERY bad morning sickness.. and now i have headaches to go along with it.. the morning sickness is getting better though :)

by ksajdak4

I am 12 weeks today..nausea is getting a little better although I threw up last night and again this morning. When I eat it feels like the food is just sitting on top of my stomach. I told my doctor I didn't need any medicine for the nausea but when I go back next week I might ask. I am so ready for this and the sleepiness to be over.

by amorgan28

i been so good so far their were times i did not want to go to work, i would cry to my hubby i was felling sooo sick.. i cant not go im a manager and its only 3 managers so we all work and only have enough time for every one to have 2 days off.. my tummy is getting really firm now I have my hands all over my tummy all the time.. every at work grabs my tummy they say its good luck. i thught i was not big enough for my weeks of being pregnant.. but now i think i am if im only 10 weeks i thought i was 12 weeks.. thank god.. i thught my baby wasent growing .. juana

by Juanambaby02

I'm 35 and having our 3rd child, 11 years after my second child. I had morning sickness in the beginning but it has gone away. My breast are so large!! I went and bought new bras today and I'm much happier. I went with no underwire. I usually wear an underwire bra but it was digging into my belly. I'm still very tired in the afternoons but I should be since I've hauled a 12 and 10 year old from school to gymnastics, etc!!! I'm still playing tennis and I've been ok until this past week the temp was closer to 80 (add tn humidity) and I could tell my breathing was heavier. My pace on the court is not what it was. I've had a headache all day today!! I still can't process I'm going to start over. I know this is a gift from God but right now I'm dealing with all sorts of emotions! Part of it is selfishness- giving up freedom. I know when the baby is born- all of those emotions will disappear. October-please hurry up and get here! I hate being pregnant. Right now- people don't know if I'm fat or pregnant. I gained 50lbs with first 2-I was miserable. I don't want to go threw that again!

by Jumansky1

im 12 1/2 weeks, the morning sickness lasts all day and night, and the headaches are dibilitating! i sure hope it doesnt getany worse!

by Izzyq43

Beginning my 12th week now, never had any nausea or weird cravings. I am blessed! :-)

by caradull

Started my 2nd Tri today! Yay! Bought some new pants that I don't have to currently squeeze into and I can now take a little Tylenol to dull my pregnancy headaches.

by CarlyandJared

I'm 12 weeks and have had very few symptoms - a couple dizzy spells but no morning sickness or headaches yet (knock on wood). I'm also not showing a whole lot either. Still getting sleepy around 8 or 9 pm every night, but that's better than wanting to pass out as soon as I got home from work like a month or so ago :) I feel lucky for having felt pretty good so far. We'll finally get to hear the heartbeat in two weeks...I'm excited :)

by snowgirl0429

im 12 weeks now... used to crave pickles. now its mostly just grapes and cooked potatoes. what a combination lol

by jrh2009

I HAVENT BEEN SICK OR HAD ANY CRAVINGS! JUST A LITTLE CRAMPING WHEN SLEEPING ON THE BELLY...HEADACHES HAVE BEEN MY WORST THOU! I HAVENT HAD A ULTRASOUND YET BUT THATS SOON TO COME!.....

by raishaalim

I am so excited to be at the 12 wk milestone! It's gone by so fast..I'm thinking only two more of those time periods & I'll be having a baby! I have been so fortunate with avoiding morning sickness and most other symptoms that I'm reading about on this forum. My husband is a chiropractor & so any time I feel a headache or backache coming on he treats me & I feel amazing! He has gotten rid of every single symptom I've had! If you don't have a chiropractor I would suggest finding one that treats pregnant women. They can help your body adapt to all of theses physical changes, get your body ready for labor & delivery, and treat you & the baby to boost your immune systems! Thank God mine is under the same roof as me... I'm sure he will be as exhausted as me once we get through this!

I hit my 12 week mark this Thursday! I can't wait! What do I do about my hay fever? I can't stop sneezing and peeing every time!

by LilTazNae

I'm 12 weeks today and still feel like crap. Luckily I am not visiting the bathroom like some of you gals. I'm so sorry and I hope that everything improves for you all. I can't wait for the m/s to go away and the nesting and real belly growth to begin. :D

Im feeling much better nausea wise, but what is with all this burping?

by littlebuddababy

For the nausea try ginger candies they worked for me ! And smelling a lemon, or even some lemon aromatherapy oil! I had nausea on the switch between month 2 and month 3 and then nothing..but hope these remedies work for you! Has anyone had their Nt test? Did they tell you gender?

by Ksakoula

I am twelve weeks tomorrow. Had a horrible night last night. Threw up 8 times went to ER and was told I either have a stomach virus/bug or food poisoning. Sick again this morning and this afternoon. So tired, couldn't keep anything down last night. Today one piece of toast, sips of pedialyte, water and juice, 4 popsicles, 1 peice of dry toast and 1/2 a banana. Was so worried about the baby! Got IV fluids and naseau meds this morning. Two hrs of sleep!

by 1stTimeMom30

Im 12 weeks and so far Ive been feeling great! I am having some mild cramping in my lower abdomen. Dr says it is normal due to my uterus stretching. This is my first pregnancy so all this is new to me!

by ladielight

Every pregnacy really is different. With my first I was never really sick unless I went longer than 2 hours without snacking on something. With number 2 it was all day sickness no matter what. Nearing the end of week 12 I'm feeling much better. Still tired but much better. Hang in their ladies. Especially the first time moms. Trust me it's all worth it when you hear those first cries from your precious baby girl or boy.

by mom2B082309

im ready for my 3rd...203 days to go! Its been the bet pregnancy!

by loveymomie2000

I am also 11 weeks and my nausea is starting to slowly fade. It was hard for me to eat & didn't really have an appetite,now I am starting to be able to eat a full meal without having to eat a little bit then wait a couple hours then eat again! Now if the acne on my face could just disappear.

by MissSteph86

I am 13 weeks and my morning sickness is almost compleatly gone. however i am still always tired,unlike my two year old daughter. This time around is way different from my first one. when i was prego with my daughter all i wanted was sweets..now all i want is salty, meaty things like: mcdonalds..lol.and steak,also tatertots. lol. I really hope thats because im having a boy.i would love to be having a boy...of course eather way i just hope he/she is heathy.

by Hayesbrittanycrystal

My m/s hit an all time high at 11wks. I did just have nausea, but now vomiting is a morning routine :( I am so ready for the 2nd trimester.

by lc1978

12 weeks today! I can't believe how fast the weeks are flying by. I hope the next 10 go quickly as well; this is my first baby and I can't WAIT to find out if it's a boy or girl!! I haven't had morning sickness or weird cravings, but the lack of energy definitely hit me. I'm just starting to feel more "alive" and awake! I ::think:: I'm starting to show, too... yesterday my pants were so uncomfortable I had to go home on my lunch break to change. Is this normal at 12 weeks? I feel like it's too early to start showing. I'm 5'5" and 118 lbs (pre-pregnancy).. probably about 120-122 by now.

by jabowman911

Well this first trimester has been awful..i lost 7lb.s due to sickness..nothing tasted good and now I think i may be able to eat food again :) Can't wait to feel normal-ish again :)

I just began my 12th week. I feel i've been very lucky as far as not morning sickness, the occasional nauseated feeling if I wait to long between meals to eat. However, still I am drained of any energy...Will I regain some energy & if so, when?

by kmbarfield1979

ive started to notice that belts and sleeping on my stomach are defi becoming unbearable so now im constantly tugging at my pants and learning how uncomfortable sleeping on mu back is lol still dead tired everyday and counting down the hours till i get off work go to the gym make dinner and can crash.......

by bennynutini

I have been told of a great remedy for Morning sickness, my sister swore by it and i can happily say i do too! Natropathic drops Nux vomica taken as needed when the queezy feeling starts, magic! im twelve weeks and 4 days, had a scan today baby look so cute with legs and arms and face features formed, amazing to watch bubs wriggle around, looking forward to when i can start to feel it move

by beryl miller

I am twelve wks tomoro and I can't sleep in a position for to to long I thought this might have happened further along but I guess not I have a two year old and everything he does is annoying when it never used to be and I love him don't get me wrong I just don't want him near me at times. Someone please tell me why someone

by mstears

I'm 12 weeks today, my my nausea is gone as of a week ago. Thank goodness-but I've been getting awful headaches and I'm exhausted. Hoping my energy level will pick up.

by MandyAaron09

To Chandypants: Other than age (29) I have been the same about not saying too much and constantly looking at FB to ensure that those I have told (family) haven't said anything!! I guess I am one of the REALLY lucky ones - no nausea at all and just a bit tired which left around 7 weeks. This is my first so I hope not to be back next time and saying please please please let the nausea stop. To the ladies who haven't been feeling well - way to hang in there! Way to go 12 weeks! Yay!! So relieved...

by TheresaCindrich

I feel like I have a headache every day. Nausea is thankfully gone but I am still tired all the time.

by chefdimples01

Im 12 weeks :) , my nausea mostly comes at night, but Its tolerable. Headaches are a new thing thats happening more frequently now, when I eat /drink fruit or anything sweet?? not sure why? Been taking prenatal vits every day and trying to eat as healthy as possible. Had Gastroenteritis back around 8 weeks, my stomache hasnt been the same since. Dr. gave me pepcid to take daily to reduce acid indigestion. Overall, I cant get enough sleep, Im a full -time Dental Hygiene student (last term!) thank god. Cant wait to be done!!

I am 12 weeks in and over the past couple of days I have been getting dizzy and getting bad headaches. I still get nassau if I move quickly, so slow and steady for me... I look forward to 2nd trimester, we are going on a babymoon :) hopefully I will have more energy, so far I have been which is great! I have been craving foods that I would not normally eat, like green curry with chicken on rice.... or pancakes with ice cream..... mmmm I am enjoying every day though.

by Billandmarylou

I just turned 12 weeks this past Thrusday and I heard my baby's heartbeat for the first time. My doctor has been putting it off due to my being so sick, but I was finally healthy enough to take a listen and she found it right away and it was nice and strong!!!! My pregnancy now feels real. I have a feeling that it will get even more real on Tuesday when I have my first ultrasound!!!!!!!!!!!

I am 12 wks pregnant and I still have nausea and headaches and dizziness.I am also so tired. I make sure I go to bed early now and by 11-12 the next day I fight to keep my eyes open. I'm a teacher so I have to run and chase after the babies. My stomach is already out there you can tell that i'm pregnant now and this is my first child. All I can say is get plenty of rest and eat healthy!! That's all I can do lol.

by zepher15

I hit the 12 week mark tomorrow. Since week 5, it has been nausea/vomiting galore here :( It's horrible! There are days when I cannot even get out of bed, it's so bad... Still hoping and wishing for some energy & the ability to eat without fear to come my way... Good luck, everyone! :)

by AGM1LED

I just hit my 12 week mark on Sunday...i think MAYBE my belly is starting to show, I wish it would just show already!! anyone start showing near 12 weeks?

by fritz33

I'm 12 weeks and I still feel a little nausea. Not all the time like before & not vomiting as much either! Only when I'm hungry do I get nauseated, except instead of carbs 24/7 all I want to eat is cold fruits and veggies! It must be the heat of summer!

by Emily0330

No more morning sickness, but Im tired. This is baby number 2 but its been almost 3 years since baby 1 was born. This baby is really picky when it comes to food. I really miss some of my favorite foods :( All I really want is sour candy, candy, and mexican food. Its really annoying.

by MeganLD90

I count myself lucky - I have had no symptoms at all. The only issue I have is broken sleep at night - I pee 4-6 times a night and that is when I quit drinking anything around 7 PM. I peed 2-3 times before pregnancy. That's my only downside! I have figured out since I am blind without any assistance (glasses) that if I go without opening my eyes, I fall asleep faster. That may sound weird or dangerous, but I have been doing it since I was 8 years old. I have had 20 years of practice! :) 12+w with Baby #1

by swimsim83

12 weeks, four days! Saw the little ones yesterday at our nuchal screen US...they were havinga dance party! They're laying on their backs, like in a hammock, one stacked on top of the other. Unfortunately my husband was stuck in traffic and missed it, so they did another quick scan. Guess they must have been wiped out from all the dancing, they were passed out!

by angel122k

omg I am 12 weeks this week. I can't believe how much the baby has grown. I have heavy cravngs for milk and watermelon. I am super sick and have been in the hospital. I became dehydrated once and my veins collasped, but so far everything is good.

by kaitlinhouse

I am 12 weeks now and thankfully feeling great! So glad that I didn't get morning sickness or nausea. My only complaint is my inability to sleep well at night and then feeling so tired throughout the day.Hope those of you that haven't been so lucky are feeling better soon!

I am 12 weeks tomorrow. Week 9 was pretty bad and week 11 wasn't too great so I'm hoping that's all over now. My biggest problem: brushing my teeth is a nightmare. I gag several times every time I brush no matter what I use, regular toothpaste, kids toothpaste, baking soda, doesn't matter. I would love it if that would end but I think maybe it won't.

by melonhead

12 weeks today and i still feel sick as ever. But i was sick beginning to end of my first pregnancy...so there may be little hope...

by PufferFamily

Im 12 weeks and m/s comes and goes. My m/s is more like my gag reflex going crazy. I got a burst of energy day before yesterday, but i was tired again the next day. I cant wait for next month, hopefully i will feel better!

by carribesunset

I'm starting my 12th week. Went one week without any m/s. Thank goodness. Getting my appetite back but still dealing with back pain and awful headaches.

by selinatala77

I"m 12 weeks and glad the on and off moments of nausea are gone, along with the fatigue. I work 12 hour night shifts on an ambulance and find that it really sucks trying to sleep during the day. I was concerned about all the crazy situations we are put into on our job and worried about lifting heavy patients, but my dr. states we don't worry about any changes in our careers until 25 weeks. Has anyone heard anything different?

My daily naps after work are no longer required, but I do have a bit of nausea here and there. My clothes is fitting tighter but someone told me I looked like I was losing weight! Overall, no major complaints so far.

by mardukes

I just hit 12wks today and am feeling great (compared to before). I brushed my teeth this morning without gagging! My only real "craving" so far has been REAL food - as in nothing junky...so I guess that's really the best I could ask for! Yay 12 wks!!!

by lucky81089

Im still pretty tired but its getting better! I got to see the baby again today the doppler thing they use at my doctors is a portable ultrasound machine and you get to see the baby and heartbeat everytime! Very exciting! They didn't have that with my son!

by BRANDI7307

Soooo looking forward to week 13. Finally losing the sickness (which was totally new to me, ZERO with my first) Hooray for energy and eating!! :o)

by AARONBECKI2010

I'm 12 weeks and i'm glad to say i did not have any nausea. I was very moody around 1pm but that hour nap relieved that . Ready for the next trimester.

by Twalac

I'm starting to get over the nausea, but every time I take my prenatal vitamin lately (it's the same i've been on for two months!) I get HORRIBLE stomach pains that last about five minutes. They are the worst stomach pains I have ever felt- has anyone else had that?

by halla037@d.umn.edu

Reading all these posts make me feel better. Im 12wk today and still have m/s and still exhausted...im convinced my boss hates me at this point b/c im spending more time in the bathroom than at my desk lol also, have developed a horrible case of atopic dermatitis, I know its not from being pregnant but its b/c I can't take my good allergy meds any more! :( im an itchy, tired, pukey mess! Really jealous of women who ate having easy pregnancies! The dizzyness hit in yesterday too ugh

by maeia82

I'm 12 weeks and 3 days!!! Nausea is getting better, less frequent. Definitely tired though. I only worked 4 hours today and came home and took a 2 1/2 hour nap. Then I was totally craving rice crispy bars so ran to the store and whipped some up! :)

i am sooo glad this 11th week is almost over for me i have less than 24 hours!!!! we lost our first one this week so its been hard! but we are getting through it 10x more strong!!!!

by hzimm85

My nausea is starting to subside, though if I don't eat every two hours, it's back with a vengeance. I usually take a nap during the afternoon, because I now have insomnia at night. Other than that, it's sometimes easy to forget that I am pregnant, because I don't feel any different. I do enjoy the larger breasts I have...I am extremely small chested to begin with, so any growth is a definite improvement! My husband is enjoying that a little too much though, I think. :)

by ncjc101010

I can definitely notice the change! I haven't gotten sick in almost week! The nausea comes and goes, but compared to constant nausea from 6-11 weeks this is nothing! I know I'm going to enjoy these last two trimesters =)

by chrissy0918

I"m now 12.5 wks and I'm more tired than ever! The morning sickness calmed down a little but it's still there!

by MelissaBrowne

im 12 weeks, and have been very lucky no morning sickness here.. the only complaint i have is i can never get enough sleep. im always soooo worn out

by tayler47

I haven't been feeling too bad but for some reason when week 11 hit, I started this whole gagging stuff. I figured out how to solve it though, just eat! Now I eat every hour or hour and 1/2. I'm going to grow fast now and I have a feeling I might have a big baby.

by melli529

I can not wait to not be sick and completely exhausted every day!!! With my 1st pregnancy nausea wasn't gone until almost week 15 so I'm crossing my fingers it starts to go away this week!!!!

Seriously, I was SO done with nausea!! Thank goodness for my 12th week now :)

starting to feel more energy but cant stop and nap with a 1 yr old busy little boy!! MUCH, MUCH, MUCH different with second pregnancy, not about u anymore;)

by tip1799

12 weeks 3 days today and my M/S is starting to subside(thank God!!!). Being sick all day for the past 7 weeks has been the worst part of pregnancy. This is my first baby, so i'm not surprised that I haven't starting showing. I get hungry about once a day and the thought of food(mostly meat) makes me sick. Apple juice, popcorn, carrots, apples, granola bars, and almonds have been the only things I have been able to eat. I can't wait to feel like myself again! I really want to start enjoying this pregnancy :)

by BetsyBee1010

got to see the baby for the first time yesterday-- it was jumping with those strong legs all crazy! someone told me a lazy baby at this stage means a girl and an active one means a boy- anyone with previous experience have comments on that?

by m1ssl1ss

I honestly do hope my nausea goes away!! i have it throught the day& night. I get really tired,sleepy, and can not seem to hold any food or fluids down.

by Celica88

I am now about 12 weeks and the nausea has been so bad i even get up from a deep sleep just to vomit. I have tried everything to get better nothing has worked i just want to enjoy my pregnancy.

by veronicag24

lucky me i never felt any sickness aswell, BUT i gotta suffer for being "dog nose" and im craving for chips and salty food ha ha..

by Ferni Angelina

I m starting to feel a little better since I hit my 12 weeks I couldn't eat or drink anything at first....my craving is mash potatoes and green beans but really green beans I just can't wait til its done and over because its to hot I stay in my house and stop going to school because I was really sick

by ladiware

6 weeks & I'm always naping...hope it goes away soon. = (

by luju07

Welcome to 12 weeks ladies! I have to say, for all the women who are "waiting" to tell people the good news, i recently read that once you see a heartbeat in the uterus, the risk of miscarriage goes down to 2 percent...and they can see a lil tiny heartbeat in there as soon as 26 days after conception....SO if youre lucky enough to have had an ultrasound already and things looked good, there's a SUPER good chance things are gonna work out and you will deliver a live baby! I read this is a book called FEARLESS PREGNANCY Wisdom and Reassurance from a doctor, a midwife, and a mom by Victoria Clayton, Stuart Fischbein, and Joyce Weckl...and let me tell you it has calmed a ton of my fears!! Enjoy the second trimester...time is going so quickly!!

by SabrinaUT723

Idehoyos...is feels good to find someone who's been just as sick as I...I had to go to ER also for IV....My OB gave me the pink pill also but I was afraid to take it.

by Logan2012

Well 12w today yay!!! I suffered a mc in the begining of the year at 9w, so I am very happy to get the 1st trimester under my belt.I have been very tired so I am hoping all the stuff I read about feeling great during the 2nd trimester is going to be true for me.I have been starting to get some headaches and dizziness tho.

by Angelgirl143

I'm 12 weeks tomorrow and my pants are feeling snug I'm not ready for maternity clothes yet, but my pants are very uncomfortable now..

by CrystalWilk09

I am know 12 weeks and I am feeling terirble. I am still have nausea very bad and it seems to only want to happen anytime I want to eat. I am so ready for this to end. I never had to worry about this with my other three pregnancies so it just seems like it is really really bad. I will be glad when it decides to stop.

by DLCOSBY

My nausea is gone but my heart burn keeps intensifying no matter what I eat.

by BenLovesNikki

Tired alot more! Very lucky to not have nausea or morning sickness for more than a few days! Looking forward to this weeks doctors appt!

by xobackxstroke1ox

I hit my 12 weeks today and I could not be happier that I am entering the third trimester! We will hear our baby's heartbeat for the first time tomorrow and I am so very excited.

by nikidean

I'm 12 weeks, still experiencing nausea, dizziness, but no real cravings. I am still really tired, that might be the heat, but I'm hoping that this all goes away soon!

by babypeeckle

No dizziness or headaches, but definitely started getting my appetite back and "swamp mouth" is gone- Thank God. Hit my 12 week last week and am 13 weeks this Thursday. It's amazing how many changes my body has been going through and it's so cool to see my belly actually starting to show a bit. Definitely feel like I am past the worst and actually am in the mood now to share my good news with family and friends, especially now that I don't feel so "yucky". I really hope the next couple of months are the best ones as they say. Then I guess I have the 3rd trimester to look forward to- haha! Good luck everyone and enjoy the tummy :)

by putus

I have had a great pregnancy so far. I experienced only minor queasiness in the evenings. The only thing that was really bothersome was EXHAUSTION! I was having to take quick cat naps at work everday! Luckily, my boss just had a baby so she's very understanding! Once I reached 11 weeks, the exhaustion disappeared. I feel great!

by e.wilson005

I'm still nauseous, but the vomiting has subsided.

by kleelee19

I can't wait to be 12 weeks! I have exactly 6 more days and I'll be 12 weeks, yay!! Morning sickness got worse for me around 10 weeks so I'm hoping it ends soon. I picked up some pills I got at Motherhood Maternity. Supposedly they help m/s but we'll see. I've been drinking lots of ginger ale and eating crackers, nothing seems to help. The only good thing is that I don't actually puke, just feel sick. Anyway, can't wait to get past all of this!!

by eluino78

In the week 12 week and though Im not as tired anymore I'm still definitely nauseaus mostly in the evening though...Also suffering a bad case of pregnancy brain. Looking forward to the nergy burst and starting to show :)

by hdoran83

12 weeks today! Never had nausea so thankful for that. I still feel quite tired, have bathroom runs at night and mood swings. I am now getting horrible headaches that last all day but I don't get them everyday. Also feeling the dizziness when I stand up too quickly.

by tarajane90@hotmail.com

when does the morning sickness go away I am 12 weeks and 4 days?

by missyr24

Im really hoping that with the 12 week coming in a few days the nausea will ease up, going through all that with twins is so hard. All I can think about is how many more weeks i have left till they get here. In the end they will be well worth the wait, sickness, and headaches! Lets see if i can get through these last few days for now.

by jade87

is having mucus like stuff normal for 12 wks? its kindof clear

by angelachurch

I have been so MEAN lately! I'm hoping this weeks info is right and these mood swings come to an end soon. I feel like a monster!

by lokifluff

I am now 12 weeks and I must say that my last 3 weeks were the worst. Migraines, nausea, dizziness, sweats anything you can think of going wrong it happened to me. 1st trip to the ER 3 days ago for dehydration and I tell you my visit wasn"t fun, but very helpful. Try to stay hydrated as much as you can it's very important! Zofran doesnt work for me and we tried all types of other things prior too( ginger tablets, ginger ale, vitamin B6 increase and you have to be careful with that. I did some reading and I found out that too much of that can be toxic to the baby :(. all I can say is PRAY that the 1st trimester goes smoothly cause i'm starting to think I didn"t pray hard enough cause of all of the things I went threw lol!

by lajoys81

I am 12 weeks today and so excited because I suffered a m/c back in oct.2010...so I am becoming more and more relieved..and not as anxious..I have to say I been blessed so far..I do have nausea on and off throughout the day but I notice small snacks or meals every 2 to 3 hrs. Helps..I am exhausted all the time so I nap alot..but then my sciatica keeps me up all night..ggrrr..I do have swamp mouth so I want to try the sour candy because the taste in my mouth is what makes me sick...I am experiencing severe headaches lately..so great we get to trade in exhaustion/nausea for headaches and dizziness..lol..however I will take it all as long as in the end I get to hold and meet my lil bean..well plum now...ha ha..:-) happy pregnancy to you all...

by lovemylilbean

My nausea (all day sickness) has definitely gotten better now that I've hit 12 weeks. Still feeling a bit sluggish and tired, but I hope that improves soon too. Just had the early ultrasound, and got to see my little one for the first time - it was amazing! Funny to see it moving around a lot on the screen, when I can't feel it moving inside yet. Soon enough though!

by erinmjones12

The nausea got much better for me, but then I started craving all the weird food. I can't get enough avocados especially. Best Natural Body Lotion

by 1redone

Im with ya girls, Ive had terrible nasues with NO vomitting since about three weeks, I was always wishing that I could just get sick cause It probably would have made me feel better, but it's crazy, I literally woke up the morning i entered the 12th week and I felt AMAZING for the first time since we found out I was pregnant, NIGHT AND DAY difference!

by KRV EAV=BABY

This past weekend was really tough I feel like I am going crazy I am usually very calm and even tempered but man I am like a beast. I hope this is just hormones and it calms down soon. Also the nausea sucks! I hungry but then I eat and feel sick it's crazy. My first pregnancy was a breeze this one is taking it's toll on me emotionally and physically.

Had my first ultrasound today, it was awesome!!!

by sbright86

Morning sickness is nearing the end I think. But I still get bouts of sudden fatigue where I absolutely need to sit down for a bit. Also I still get suddenly hungry every 2 to 3 hours and if I don't eat I will feel nauseated and tired. I found that if I snack on fresh fruit and veggies between meals it helps. I drink a ton of water, and no more caffeine at all. I eat smaller meals but about 4 per day. I cannot miss breakfast or it's definitely a sick day for me! This is my second pregnancy, but my first one was when I was 19, I am now 38. I had no symptoms or morning sickness with my first. I am wondering if this one is tougher on me because of my age.

by zorbet

I'm 12 weeks today and for the past two weeks my nausea has been getting worse.

by chupigrl

12 weeks! Glad to read that everyone is as tired as me!!! No nausea or crazy cravings, but tired all the time. Can't wait for my energy to come back! Starting to get some headaches too.

by kristentbrandt@yahoo.com

i just hit 12 weeks and I can tell a total difference with morning sickness and energy, its great! the only thing that changed for this 2nd trimester is that im sleeping less at night and more like naps throughout the day.

by joygooding569

I am 12 weeks today, last week was my worst week EVER! I literally threw up every time I ate. I hope I got it all out and it is coming to an end because I am miserable. I have been very tired and sick, this is my first child and if it does not get better it will be my last :-( I pray that I get better. On a brighter note my husband and I are so excited about our new addition, cant wait to find out the sex :-)

by sfinchWed68665

I Feel Great This Week... Nausea gone, energy back.

Not sure how but I never had m/s! However, the little peanut did drain ALL of my energy! Looking forward to getting that back! Just hit the 12w mark yesterday!

by mommytobe 3411

Yay today i'm 12 weeks. I was a little scared last night though, I know this is TMI but I have to share. I looked on my pantiliner and it was darkish discharge. I even showed my husband he said it doesnt look too bad but we will see if everything is ok today and if not i'm going to call my Dr. today. Wish me luck ladies :(

mcoleman1 - that is soo funny! I'm totally craving potatoes, too! Mashed, baked any way! Also, my nausea is getting worse. But the same thing happened when I was pregnant with my son. Months 1-3 were great. But months 3 & 4 were the worst! I think I'm in for the same this time around.

by Perkster

I've been a very lucky woman, no morning sickness with very little dizziness and headaches and fatigue. The one thing I have experienced is becoming the pickiest eater ever, well maybe not ever but for me this is insane. I eat like a 4 year old, Spaghetti O's, Mac n' Cheese, Eggo's, and yogurt. I can't wait for the cravings so that I will start eating more. I'm 12 weeks today, so lets hope the cravings start soon!!!

Im 12 weeks today! Im STILL sick :( and I have headaches!!! I PRAY that i dont have this sickness through my whole pregnancy! I cant handle it, I love food way to much lol

by sexymamakristen

with this pregnancy I haven't really had any morning sickness or sleepy tendencies, thank god. I Do get yawning spells during the day but over all I work 40 hrs a week on my feet most of the day except for paperwork hours. This is a complete difference from my first pregnancy 10 years ago with my son I was always gaging or throwing up. Overall I say be thankful for your little blessings they take a lot from us in the beginning to be nourished but the ending result out weighs all the down sides of pregnancy.

im 12weeks today and still not showing but am still excited!! especially to know my appetite should soon be picking up soon :)

by ambergrant28

I am 12 weeks along and the mother of 3 boys (maybe a girl this time?) I work full time and take care of the family. I chuckle each time I am told to get more rest, take a nap, and so forth. I am so tired by the end of the day I fall into bed. I am so looking forward to the 2nd trimester energy. It will come, ladies. Promise!

by krbrock07

OMG I thought the nausea would get better at 12 weeks. Wrong! This has been the worst week of them all. Tired all the time, vomiting after almost every meal. I don't know how I'm going to make it through a day, nevermind a night at work.

by jjvs234

I'm 12 weeks as of today and i feel like crap.

by ms mccoy

Lost nausea at 10.5 weeks but gained gagging. ugh. Now at 12.5 weeks still have gagging and now have headaches :(. It will all be worth it in the end. :)

by cristajb

Luckily for me I have not experienced nausea and I've already hit 12 weeks. However I have had the WORST mood swings. They are starting to subside and I feel less stressed which, in turn, means less anger, frustration and sadness. My energy does seem to have returned and I feel great when I can actually finish a task without needing to rest or nap! I do have some cravings, for a week it was hot dogs, then i graduated to sausage... now I'm "addicted" to Frito pie =).

by abeans

12 weeks today...and I braved it and bought me a Big Mac...now I am just sitting here waiting to see what happens...I have had TERRIBLE m/s since I found out I was preganant 6 weeks ago...surprisingly did not feel anything before that - wonder if I hadn't taken the preg/test if things would be differeint (ya never know!) - Anyhoo its my second baby, and its NOTHING like my first. That lil fella was a BREEZE! So hears to hoping its a girl! - due April 18th (Daddy's b-day!)

by madison1909

I'm at week 12 today and have still been feeling waves of nausea off and on. I still am pretty tired, but do have a small amount of more energy, and my breasts are still very tender...I guess this is all just part of the experience.

by absolutc0036

I feel like the nausea is getting worse?? And belly is getting big, I love it!! But ughh I feel horrible all the time!

by kodicurtiss

Im just at 12 weeks and I had my first mat visit yesterday!!!! The appt was good and all but me and hubby were really bummed when Doc tried the doppler, we must have been there a half an hour but couldn't find it... She booked me an appointment for nest week to try again, but Im very dissapointed and kinda heartbroken... Is this normal?

by DlovesA

i hit 12 weeks tomorrow, no morning sickness at all (knock on wood!) but i am very tired! and im already starting to show, this is my first pregnancy, im only 5'3" and started at 112 pounds, im up to about 115, is this normal!?

by hschultz489

Finally the nausea is gone, but i'm still tired all the time. Now I'm getting more frequent headaches! I need energy!

by rcart538

Wow it goes by so fast I can't even believe I'm already in my 2nd trimester. Like some people on here I haven't had any nausea:) Before I was pregnant I would get dizzy once and awhile when I was hot or dehydrated, but now it's 3 times worse. When I panic I swear it gets worse, so the key is to stay calm and drink lots of water. I do feel like I have a little more energy but not 100%. And the bathroom dashes are pretty much the same.

by michellem775@hotmail.com

12 weeks today! So exciting, Nausea is finally starting to pass but the headaches are so bad, it's just one after the other. Still feel drained but super excited my lil one is growing in my belly :)

I am 12 weeks today and had the scare of my life! I passed a blood clot this morning. I'm 37, my first successful baby and now I'm worried. Had a emergency appt with my ob-had a ultrasound and baby was moving around and heartbeat was good. Just hoping things are smooth sailing from here on out.

lbingham50 I completely agree! I was worried I'd lost the baby b/c I felt completely better at 12 weeks. We had the ultrasound today and baby is active, though! I'm thankful that the sickness aspect of this is over (for the most part).

by Lbible1

I am scared now. I had a serious nausea two weeks ago and i vomited all i had eaten in days. the last bit was full of blood but doctor said it was ok. I had another experience some minutes ago. this time the nausea was not too much and i vomited little but i am scared now because i vomited blood again. Please what do i do?

by Babbabe

This is my fourth pregnancy, and my first pregnancy experiencing morning sickness. With my other pregnancies, I barely had any but this time it was straight throwing up for 10 weeks straight...luckily by week 11, it has completely subsided...although my fatigue is still a bit of a nuisance!

by MammaBear684

12 weeks and lucky for me I never had the m/s but I am very tired and get awful headaches! Hoping the headaches would go away, but apparently not:(

by monroemamma

The nausea is still here for me at 12 weeks. I am noticing more dizziness and headaches for sure. The energy level is improving FINALLY, I like to accomplish a lot in a day so I felt pretty slowed down for a while. This weekend we will announce our news to our families! I wonder what they'll say?! This is number 4 after all. I never thought we'd have that many, but it seems like a wonderful number for our family.

I am 12 weeks and 1 day and I feel good. This is my second pregnancy, my first born will be 8 yrs next month. I wasn't sick with him at all. In the beginning of my second pregnancy I was nauseated most of the time (no vomiting), and it was affecting my appetite. Now that I have reached the 12 week mark, the nausea has subsided, and I'm gradually gaining my normal eating habits back, but I did have my first dizzy spell yesterday :( I am excited. S
