Pixie dust please... About This Page:

[MegglesMom]

I'm sorry I haven't been around much these past few days. I can't seem to get my act together! I thought I was doing great, as I was having no morning sickness, and then WHAM!! Starting this past weekend, I can barely keep anything down. This was so bad with DD that I lost 20 lbs. in a month. So please keep me in your thoughts, I'm not sure how much more I can take.

PS-- Anything I should try? I'll try anything at this point!

Have you talked to your Dr. about medication for the nausea? I know they can give you something if it's bad. Good luck!

I hope this doesn't last long for you.

I'm sorry you're not feeling well Kelly . Unfortunately I have no advice for you, just hang in there! It will all be worth it in the end .

[FanOfMickey]

Sorry to hear your not feeling so well. I think everyones advice to check with our Dr. sounds good. Unfortunatly I don't have any advice to help you.

[SarahJ]

You poor thing! I have no advice either, but I can send you plenty of pixie dust your way.

Kelley, have you tried "Sea-Bands"? They are terry cloth wristlets with a little bump, enabling you to hit the pressure point on your wrist and help the nausea. I used them when I was pregnant, and I they are available in most drug stores(near the Dramamine). Hope you're feeling better soon.

Kelley, I would talk to your OB about nausea meds as well. I was so sick with DS I was hospitalized, I feel so badly for you. I actually got sick during labor!!! I tried so many different remedies but I never really found anything that worked. Hope you feel better soon.

for you! When I had the same problem, I used ginger capsules, peppermint tea, and cola syrup (not at the same time!) Also, the old stand-by of soda crackers (saltines) and sipping flat sprite. When that didn't work w/ DD4, the midwife put me on phenergan which is an old standby and worked wonders for me! I think so many OBs are afraid to even mention meds anymore, so you my have to be the one to bring it up. Phenergan works wonders and I never run out!

Sorry to hear that you are having trouble with this. My sister and I were both Preg. at the same time and both had severe morning sickness.
We tried everything, and then found Emetrol. It is available over the counter, and is perfectly safe. It worked wonders!

I hope you soon get through it Kelley.

Pixie dust to you.

I was really sick with my second pregnancy. It's kind of weird but I kind of had a "throw up" schedule. Instead of sitting around all day trying to keep things down, I would just let it go once in the morning and once in the evening. For some reason food stayed down better the rest of the day. My docs never mentioned medication so that was the only solution I could find.

I had a friend that incessantly sucked on lollipops (even in the shower) because it kept her from getting hungry which always seems to bring about the nausea.

If it's any consolation, I wasn't sick a day with my third pregnancy. So if you want another one after this one there is hope!

Hope you feel better soon.
