Question:
Hello,
I am 10 weeks pregnant, and have had severe morning sickness. However in the past few days it has gotten alot worse (ie, I cannot even hold down water). Is there a hormonal reason for this that you might be aware of?
Thank-you so much
Answer:
NVP symptoms are typically stronger during weeks 8 to 12, so it's not unusual to be experiencing an increase in week 10.
