When do u start vomiting during pregnancy?

I just found out I'm pregnant and I'm dreading morning sickness. My sister had it really bad. When does the vomiting usually start for most pregnant women?

Morning sickness, which includes nausea and sometimes vomiting, typically begins around 6 weeks of pregnancy. It can be quite strong in the first trimester, but usually improves for most women by the second. Try small, frequent meals.

Amma used to say that the morning sickness starts around the second month. For me, it was around 6-7 weeks when the nausea really hit. It's uncomfortable, but the doctor assured me it's normal. Trust your doctor's advice.

For women, the vomiting usually starts around 6 weeks and can last for a few months. While this is happening, it's really important for pregnant women to stay hydrated. And for those with conditions like high BP, consistent check-ups are non-negotiable.

I've read that 'morning sickness' is a bit of a misnomer, as it can happen any time of day. Most sources say it kicks in around 6 weeks and can be quite intense. It sounds really challenging, honestly.

My elder sister said she started feeling super nauseous and threw up sometimes around 6-7 weeks. It was tough for her, but she said it's pretty normal for most expecting moms. Hope that helps!

Morning sickness often starts around the 6th week. If you have thyroid issues like me, it's even more important to ensure your tests are regular and you follow your doctor's advice. Sometimes nausea can be aggravated by other health factors, so keep your doctor in the loop.

From my experience, the nausea and occasional vomiting started around the 6th week of my pregnancy. It was mostly in the mornings but sometimes hit me in the evening too. It eased up significantly by the second trimester.

Did anyone else start feeling nauseous even before 6 weeks? I'm around 5 weeks and already feel quite sick sometimes. Is that too early, or is it normal for some people?
