I'm 5wks pregnant. I have morning, afternoon and evening sickness, but I'm not throwing up...just really queasy and gassy. And b/c of this I can't bring myself to eat certian things. But I've craving pasta and rice. Does anyone else have this problem?

Yes, I am the say way, always feeling sick to the point that I turned into one grumpy person. I have read that some people do lose weight during 1st trimester. I am also craving carbs but some books recommend to eat lean meat instead like chichen. It helps better against morning sickness. I have also been trying different herbal teas. I think that they are working as for the past few days I have been feeling a little better. I never knew that morning sickness was actually 24 hours nausea.

Welcome to pregnancy!!! I never actually got sick, but felt nauseous ALL THE TIME so I had to be very picky about what I ate. For a week, the only thing I could stand was BLT sandwiches, so thats what I ate, for a week straight. My doctor basically told me that the first trimester is considered the "survival trimester". She told me at the time to eat whatever I was hungry for or whatever would agree with me, even if that meant eating cereal, soup or MCDonalds everyday, for every meal. It will get better. Try drinking some ginger tea (decaf) or sucking on peppermints or chewing gum.....for some reason, juicy fruit seemed to help me feel better during the first trimester.
