Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

Do you ever get flashbacks when you smell something that would have triggered it when pregnant? Almost two and a half years later, and I still gag and get nauseas with certain smells that would have had me retching when pregnant. Anyone else?

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

HOT DOGS!!!! OMG they were the worst. I tried on last weekend just for kicks. One bite and I was done. So not worth the funky tummy for a dog!

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

CHINESE FOOD!!!!

I will NEVER.EVER be able to eat Chinese food again. I can't even look at a chinese food menu without gagging!

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

Chocolate pudding. Don't ask.

Rotisserie Chickens (smell of)
Ice Pops (taste of just bring back bad memories, because thats literally all I could eat)

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

It took me a long time to be able to smell/eat chicken again.

Unfortunatelly, dog puke still makes me sick to my stomach.

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

sad to say it... but cheese. not all cheese, just the really good stinky cheeses. The kind that were my FAVORITE before i was pg. I was in Uncle Giuseppe's yesterday and almost hurled on the display.

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

Not really. But I was very weird about food even before I got pregnant.

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

With me it was spaghetti with Garlic and Oil. I still gag at the smell and sight of it!

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

OMG all the time. AND when the nausea feeling comes I swear I say "now is not the time to have another"... Could u imagine having that feeling again...OMG....
I still do want more at some point though...just when she a little more independent.

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

Tortellini! I don't know why, it never bothered me before getting pregnant, and some other things (like meat) made me sick while pregnant but don't bother me now. But the smell and sight of tortellini makes me gag.

Also plastic shower liners. Again, don't know why.

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

OMG Yes!!!! I still gag when brushing my teeth, and cold cuts and touching any raw meet or poultry almost makes me !

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

Dr. Praegers (sp?) spinach pancakes!

I don't eat them but my DDl loves them. I would make them for her the beginning of this pregnancy and the smell would send me running to the bathroom. I still can't make them for her

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

I still do. Even the site of this one pasta dish makes me feel awful

I made some Racheal Ray chicken dumpling dish and will never make it again because of the memories.

Worst part of my pregnancy with was my ms

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

yes! When I pg with DS I ate Golden Grahams and threw up right after. To this day, I cant even look at it

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

Ok....don't laugh at this one but I SWEAR it is true!!!

I had HORRENDOUS morning sickness, well all day sicknes till the day I give birth, so many things made me sick but nothing bothers me now EXCEPT....

MAKING MY BED IN THE MORNING!

Now I know it sounds crazy and I swear its not in my head, but when I was pregnant everytime I was making my bed in the morning I would get nauseous and throw up. I think it was the up and down movement.
There was a point at the end of my pregnancy that I physically could not make my bed anymore bc I was sooo sick of getting sick.

To this day making my bed in the morning gives me that "wave" of morning sickness. Def not as severe or debiliting, but it is there!!!

Ok....laugh now!! Lol

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

roasted chicken! i didnt throw up one time my whole pregnancy but one time i smelled my mil cooking it and got so nauses. 2 years later, the smell still makes me sick!

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

Yes!!! I feel like I am permanently scarred from my pregnancy w/ DS. I too have certain foods/smells that trigger those feelings and it just amazes me that it brings me right back there. I guess that's what being nauseous for 9 months can do to you.

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

I cannot even LOOK at a bottle of ginger ale without getting queasy.

I was in class for the first 25 weeks of my pregnancy. I had a morning class (not my best idea) & I would throw up at home & then race to the car & try to get to the school as quickly as possible before throwing up again. By the time I got there I was usually praying that I could just make it inside before throwing up Well, I had to go back there for paperwork recently & the second I turned into the parking lot I started feeling sick & actually thought "I hope I can get into the building before throwing up."

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

I had severe HG with all three pregnancies. I now get motion sickness (car sick) very easily where I never did before and gag at certain things but nothing from my pregnancy because when you have HG everything regarding food, blood, smells and basically anything else made me vomit!

Re: Moms who had serious morning sickness/hyperemesis

when I look at Ginger Ale, it makes my stomach turn, because I tried drinking that to help.
