I have been on depo 8weeks and gained weight and havin morning sickness symptoms and my breasts are getting bigger?

Yes, that's Depo!: Part of the "side effects" of Depo provera (medroxyprogesterone) is weight gain and if this isn't tolerable then evaluate another form of contraception in 4 weeks when the Depo wears off.
