Mama’s with bad sickness… why is it getting worse?

I’ve had hyperemesis since just before 6 weeks and I’m on sickness medication. I had a few days at 12 weeks where I felt almost better but now I feel like I’m back at square one. Has it gotten worse for anyone else?

Lower back pain

I'm really really struggling with lower back pain! I saw my osteopath a week ago and she said all looks fine and it'll just be everything stretching but I'm still in so much pain!

Conjunctivitis

Has anyone else had to deal with this? I’ll be taking him to the doctors tomorrow and I’ve been cleaning his eyes with cooled boiled water on a cotton pad but is there anything else I can do too? Also how often should I wipe them? Every time there is build up?

Laid on back

I went for a facial yesterday and laid on my back for 30 or so minutes. I placed a rolled towel under my right side to angle my hips so I wasn’t completely flat but now all I can think about is that I laid down for too long. Have felt baby move since but can’t help but continue to worry 🙈

Movements

I never know when I should be worried or not. She's not one for moving much, my baby. I've had regular scans and checks to check her weight and size as she's on the smaller side due to the the lack of room to grow. All the scans and my checks etc have always been fine. No real issues other than the size. She can go ...

Does anyone else still get freaked out how movement feels? It’s just so startling at times and sometimes really overwhelming for me when she’s moving

Cramping at 10 weeks

Has anyone else experienced constant cramping at 10 weeks? I’ve not had any lower abdominal cramping until now and it has been non stop (dull ache and then the odd sharp pain) for about 35 hours. Early pregnancy don’t seem to be concerned but it’s hard not to be worried, especially as it has been going on for some time
