Share some morning sickness remedies please!

I have yet to vomit, and at this point I don't think I will. I am approaching 9 weeks and I have to go back to work next week. I have been nauseous since week 5, it sort of disappeared last week, and now this week it's worse then ever. I am nauseous ALL DAY, I feel like sh!t, I am so upset I don't know what to do.

I have been researching online and came up with a few things I didn't try.
Ginger, fresh, or in capsule form
Taking a Vitamin B-6 supplement

I am going to call my doctor tomorrow to see what they say. But I could REALLY use any other suggestions. I'm willing to try anything.

Thanks

Re: Share some morning sickness remedies please!

I completely understand your pain. It happened to me at week 5 and continued to week 14 (I am sure you wanted to hear that). I wanted to jump out of my skin. The sickness was there ALL day.

I wish I could give you some advice. They say ginger is good. I tried it, it helped a little.

See what your doctor says. Feel better

water with lemon (enough lemon so you can taste it but not too much, you need your stomach lining) drink in small sips

Mint lifesavers (I think Spearmint? In the blue bag) were literally LIFESAVERS for me!!! I popped them all day long, but they made me feel soooo much better.

Good luck

Re: Share some morning sickness remedies please!

some girls had lucky with salty stuff like pretzels

my best friend told me jelly beans

I find wintergreen flavored lifesavers help me (even when not PG!~)

Re: Share some morning sickness remedies please!

Lemony stuff definitely helped me

Re: Share some morning sickness remedies please!

I don't know from experience, but one of my girlfriends wore those sea sickness bracelets and she said that they helped.

Re: Share some morning sickness remedies please!

Thanks, I have tried the lemon water, helps a little. Also, did the salty thing, didn't help.

I am going to try the lifesavers. I have also heard about the seaband, I think I'll go get one tomorrow.

SpringBaby, I could have written your post nearly word for word!

I too am not throwing up, but every since I got my BFP(actually, even before I tested positive) I have been in a constant state of nauseousness. I only threw up once (sorry TMI) but that was mainly because I had a migraine .. otherwise, I just feel completely disgusting ... tired, wiped out, nauseous.. practically morning, noon and night .. even smelling certain foods can send me over the edge The weird part is that I can actually be hungry and nauseous at the same time.. but the minute I try to eat something, a few bites into it I have to throw it out for fear I WILL get sick

I HATE the taste of ginger so that doesn't work for me. And actually drinking water (plain or with lemon) makes me feel worse too. The only thing that works is carbs, carbs carbs - PLAIN bread, saltines, plain potates or rice.. it seems to just settle my tummy a bit.

I haven't yet found a remedy that makes me feel better, but I did read an article about the "Preggie Pops" and I ordered them.. they finally came last night, I was sucking on the Peppermint Pop and during the time I had it, I actually did feel a teeny bit better.. Its definitely not a cure all, but its a quick fix and maybe they'll help you too

Re: Share some morning sickness remedies please!

I started to feel nauseous this week....
it's awful but I feel better by eating

chicken soup..chicken noodle or matzo ball
and romaine lettuce with italian dressing made with red wine vinegar...
diluted ginger ale with seltzer...drinks have to be cold !!!!!

crackers dont work...i find that i chew and chew and it's too dry to swallow...it makes me feel worse...

Re: Share some morning sickness remedies please!

Rasberry Iced tea also worked for me.. They say Rasberry, peppermint, ginger and cinnamon are supposed to aide in the distraction of morning sickness.. and if any of these don't work, ask your Dr. about those pills I recommended!! GL!
