    I'm currently 18 weeks pregnant, my morning sickness stopped around 14 weeks (although I thought it would last forever!). In early pregnancy, the foetus does not need a lot of nutrition from food (other than the folate tablets you should be taking), so the main thing is keeping yourself healthy during this period and drink lots of water. Try eating bland foods and icy poles - or anything you can keep down. Ignore the people telling you all the healthy things to eat right now - if it's not going to stay down, it won't do you any good, will it?

    I ended up in hospital (after throwing up 16 times in one day) but only because of dehydration - that is the one major problem that can result from morning sickness. So keep drinking!

    If you really think you need some help with it, ask your doctor for some maxalon. It's a class A drug so is not harmful for your baby, and even if it only keeps you feeling good for a few hours, that's enough time to eat and keep a meal down.
