I had nausea starting about 10 days past ovulation, but unusual peeing, thirst, hunger, fatigue, and tender boobs starting on day 2 or 3 past ovulation. And I *don't* run on a treadmill.

The bad news? Starting at 3 weeks past ovulation I was barfing like Old Faithful, and it lasted through the 5th month. I was even throwing up *while taking* prescription anti-emetics (Zofran), but then only once a day instead of every hour, all day. So if you end up with bad morning sickness, seriously, ask your doc for Zofran. Without it, I'd have had to quit my job and likely endanger mine and my little guy's health.

(FYI: I am 24 weeks pregnant now, and while every 4 or 5 mornings I still gag and retch, I haven't actually vomited in about 2 weeks!)

i so could've used this icon through my pregnancy. now my baby is almost here so I'm like, whats the point. But I've been diagnosed w/ hyperemesis, and I've been vomitting my entire pregnancy. I have taken zofran too, and it decreased the severity most days although I still had a few trips to the ER from dehydration and such. But definitely, ask for zofran if you're retching, I felt like it took my doctor FOREVER to prescribe it!!
