Just back from my first cruise (all fun and no motion sickness!!!)
Thanks to everyone who gave me good information when I was having trouble booking.
We took a 3 night Carnival cruise out of Miami. We really enjoyed it. DH has cruised before, I haven't.
I used the SCOP patch, behind the ear b/c I have a history of motion sickness. I didn't get sea sick at all. I could sense the boat moving and I think I would have gotten at least a little bit sick without the patch. The patch caused very severe dry mouth but no other side effects. I would cruise again and use the patch again. Oh, anyone who uses the patch should get extra. I had one that fell off the first day and it would not stick back on but I had extra.
We visited Nassau, Bahamas and went snorkeling and swimming with StingRays. We also went shopping. Then we had a day at sea and loved that. The shows on board were fantastic as were the silly games that reminded me of the old school catskills. Oh, our waiter was really cool, too.

That's great to hear!
We're cruising in January, it'll be my first and I was really nervous about motion sickness.
Did you have an oceanview or balcony room?

Oceanview, a big window. Go with at least the big window or a balcony. I do not think I would have done as well with a porthole or an inside cabin, especially an inside cabin.
I think that the RX motion sickness patches made a huge difference. I could tell by how the boat was moving that I may have gotten sick if I did not use the patch.
