What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

Week 8 came and brought with it nausea. Thankfully I am not vomitting. I just really don't feel like eating anything. When I wait until I am really hungry it makes the nausea worst. Please share what you eat when you are feeling nauseous. I know I have to eat but NOTHING is appealing to me!

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

don't let yourself get hungry! that's when you feel it the most. i also wasn't puking, just lots of nausea. i basically lived on pretzels and those little oyster crackers. i would drink water with a splash of lemon, or if i went out, i would have a coke or pepsi. also chewing minty gum helped me, but some people say it did the opposite for them.

Grilled cheese sandwiches seemed to be ok with me when my m/s was at its worst. Really, any carbs that I thought of, I could usually try to keep down. Mashed potatoes, bland pasta with butter and salt -- stuff like that. Crackers never made me full enough to help.

Basically, anything that I thought I could eat, I'd stuff in me when I could when the m/s was really bad. I avoided acidic things like OJ, tomato sauce, etc. I even went through a cream soda phase which was nice and sugary sweet.

Feel better!!! Keeping full DEFINITELY helped!

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

so funny, i was just about to make a post about this...my nausea kicked in the day after I missed my period last week (I didn't even know I was PG yet)! It's really driving me crazy...I don't handle stomach issues very well.

Most times, if I make sure I have food in my stomach, I'm ok but it's a fine line.

I've been living on cheerios, crackers, ginger ale (not sure if thats really helping tho), special k bars, eggos, pasta with butter. And cheese seems to help. I have some sour patch kids on my desk right now but not sure if it's really doing anything. I never realized how much work it was to eat all the time!!!

Oh and totally avoiding tomato sauce!

I keep a stash of snacks by the bed and in the bathroom so I can eat at night. This really helps me to not feel sick when I wake up in the morning b/c my stomach isnt empty.

Feel better!!!

saltine crackers helped a lot!!! And so did any carb really. Bread always made me feel better. I also got ginger ale which helped a lot too!

I noticed that with M/s the more I kept my stomach full (ironically) the better I felt. As soon as my stomach got empty or I got hungry I always felt much worse. Always eat small meals spaced apart and try to avoid ever feeling hungry.

Thin pretzels. Also this might sound odd but sipping cranberry and pomegranate juice very cold helps me a lot.

separate issue but it also seems to help with the dizziness or fainting.

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

i ate whatever
I could stand like grilled cheese, soup, bagels, and oj or milk...anthing else really made me feel worse... find what works for u
goodluck! it does pass!!!

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

I havae the exact same problem. I've lived on crackers, water, ginger ale and pepermints seems to help too. DONT let yourself get too hungery. Even if you have to snack on saltines throughout the day. If you get too hungery it just gets worse. I was able to drink more then I could eat. Smoothies were ok for me too. I made them with OJ, bananas, strawberies and ice and they gave me the few extra calories I needed.

I'm almost 12 1/2 weeks and I'm starting to feel less nausious. Hopefully it goes away for you soon

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

Goldfish, pretzels, saltines, or jolly ranchers! I only got nauseous when I was hungry and never actually vomitted. I definitely eat a snack in between all my meals. Good luck!

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

Carbs and hydration. Candy is good. I sucked on ginger candy along with many others.

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

crackers...

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

i ate plain baked potatoes, kaiser rolls, plain pasta
carbs were my friend!
i also drank ginger ale, and ate sour patch kids and ginger candies from whole foods

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

pretzels always did the trick for me..sometimes protein bars like Larabars...ginger ale when it's really bad..oh, and sucking candies

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

Carbs for me. Grilled cheese sandwiches are my life right now.

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

I would eat whatever my belly could handle. Usually it was a carb like a bagel, grilled cheese, french toast, or saltines.

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

Thanks Ladies! I tryed saltines and seltzer water yesterday and that really helped. I am looking forward to this passing. I am just concerned that I am not eating and drinking enough.

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

All I eat are carbs! Bagels and mini saltines

Re: What Do You Eat When You Feel Nauseous

coke with ice, ice pops, lemon sorbet, and alot of bread and pasta.
