The stereotype of morning sickness is a pregnant woman who throws up as soon as her feet hit the floor in the morning, but most moms report a variety of symptoms.
Some throw up frequently, some are nauseated all day, and some just have nausea triggered by certain smells or foods. Morning sickness most commonly begins around week 6 of pregnancy, although a few moms report feeling nausea as early as 4 weeks pregnant which is only 2 weeks after conception! Week 4 of pregnancy is around the time your period is due to start.
Most women have a positive pregnancy test at 5 to 6 weeks pregnant which is typically 1 to 2 weeks after your period was due. Symptoms may start out somewhat mildly around 6 weeks, get worse and peak around 9 to 10 weeks, and then decrease as you get closer to 12 to 14 weeks. For many expecting moms, morning sickness begins to improve around 12 to 14 weeks so around the start of the second trimester.
Almost all mothers report that their symptoms are completely gone by 16 to 20 weeks, although up to 10 percent of women have nausea all the way up to delivery. While morning sickness does not start earlier if you are carrying twins, it may be more severe once it does start. The theory is that pregnancy hormones — such as progesterone and human chorionic gonadotropin HCG that are produced by the placenta — are responsible for sickness in the first place.

Morning sickness may indicate a healthy placenta that is producing plenty of pregnancy-supporting hormones. A very small percentage of women have an extreme form of morning sickness called hyperemesis gravidarum. This condition includes severe, uncontrollable nausea and vomiting that can result in weight loss, electrolyte imbalances, malnutrition, and dehydration.
This is likely to be because data was regularly collected from participants before they became pregnant up to 60 days after last menstrual period, while most other studies ask women to recall their symptoms after they have become pregnant.
Professor Roger Gadsby adds: "What we've shown is that more people get symptoms of pregnancy sickness than has ever been shown before, and one of the reasons for that is that this research has picked up mild early symptoms that tend to fade by weeks.
In other studies those symptoms would have faded by the time the research started. Previous research by the same team has demonstrated that the term 'morning sickness' is misleading as nausea and vomiting can occur at any time of day, and argues that 'nausea and sickness in pregnancy' or 'pregnancy sickness' is more appropriate and avoids trivialising the condition.
