Mommas - ugh morning sickness

melimelg · March 2011

So I am super sick again with this one. I have been for 4 weeks now. No matter what I eat, I am sick. I don't think I have gained weight, which I am shocked since I feel like all I do is eat to try to get rid of the nausea.

If you were sick, did anything help to get rid of it, even just for a little bit? My old standbys from Emmy arent working. I used to be able to chew gum and that would help, but not with this one. So I am looking for new ideas!

And I am not taking any medications this time, not even for this cold that I have, so those are out.

preggie pops and pickled ginger helped me...also eating a heavy meal as early in the day as I could helped me feel better for the rest of the day....and for some reason water made me sick while a can of coke settled my tummy.

I have not been majorily sick (knock on wood), expect for one day. Some of the things that I have done to help with the nausea have been sour patch kids (thanks Caroline for getting me hooked), eating ritz crackers, ginger ale, lifesavers, making sure that I ate protein first thing in the morning (been eating egg and cheese biscuit from Chick-fil-a), sprite.

I just tried to make sure something was on my stomach at all times and that seems to help some. I still get nausea, but doing the above seemed to help some. If I went without eating something I started to get sick.

I used mints all the time to help with reflux, and I put lemon in my water. Are you noticing feeling sicker after eating any certain foods? I was dairy intolerent throughout the whole pregnancy and Chase was when I was bf.

I did mints with Emmy but this one, no way. I feel sick no matter what I eat and I actually want to drink milk, it is one of the few things that I crave. It doesnt make me feel worse so I keep drinking it!

Thanks for the suggestions ladies. I try to keep something in my stomach at all times but it isnt really helping. I will try the sour patch kids to see if they help to dry my mouth.

It doesnt help that I have post nasal drip to which is making it worse

I ate lots of bland starch, like grits. I think I ate grits for dinner for a few weeks straight! I also drank milk and when I knew I was good with that did banana, milk and pb shakes. I tried other fruits but anything citrus at all made me sick, even strawberry smoothie made me sick. Only the pb banana worked!

I ate sour patch kids, lifesavers, Jamba Juice (strawberry surfrider specifically), egg rolls (crispy stuff seemed to help me for some reason). Unlike Kellie, everything citrus did well for me. Ugh, it's horrible just remembering it, I'm so sorry!! I still remember realizing about a week after Lucie was born when my friend (who had her baby 2 weeks after me) was over and ran to the bathroom and threw up, that I didn't feel sick anymore! I'd been popping zofran almost the whole 9 months!! Hope it gets better soon.
