Yep sounds normal. Unfortunately part and parcel of trimester 1! smile

Usually gets better about week 10 though.

I had terrible sinus problems for the first 8 weeks, lots of steaming Vicks bowls and sitting in the bathroom with the shower running full pelt. It does help. Also keep the windows open as much as possible. It's all down to your blood flow changing, so don't worry. If it persists and you start to get itchy eyes, runny nose and sneezing 24/7, it's hay fever.

As for the feeling sick, that's normal too. Try to eat little and often. I found bland foods the best. Beans on toast, small amounts of cheese, yogurts, cous cous and pasta were my best friends for the first few weeks. Little by little I added other things in, chicken, white fish, hard boiled eggs and steak.

I'm now 13 weeks and pretty much back to normal, just avoiding the stuff on the "restricted" list.

All sounds exactly how I have been feeling from approx 5 weeks until now being 10 weeks. All part of the glamour I am afraid. Try eating small amounts often rather than big meals 3 times a day
