How do you control your morning sickness???

I have been so sick all day and night. Have you tried those lollipops? Reviews pls?

Re: How do you control your morning sickness???

Sips of water. Lots of them.
Small snacks that have a lot of water (ie grapes over raisins).

My sister wore bands with magnets on them & had ginger pops.

Re: How do you control your morning sickness???

I had really bad m/s with last pregnancy from the moment i was awake to the moment i went to bed. Sleep was really my only thing that worked for me. I tried lollipops and no help for me, but i have heard others on here say it works for them.

The other thing that worked for me besides sleep was Lemons and Sweet tarts, the sourness helped with that metal taste in mouth and soothed the naseau a bit.

This pregnancy i only had m/s for a bit, Mostly the fact that knowing it didnt last entire pregnancy and i survived the last pregnancy helped me. Plus i kept lieign to my head and saying i was 20 weeks to see if mind over matter wouild help.

Good Luck!! try gingerale, lemon, saltines, salty foods help alot too like pretzels.

eta: yes as pp said.. those sea sick bands (forgot about those) i used those last pregnancy.. they helped me.

I used to have very bad nausea in the beginning. I used sea bands at first, and sour candies and fruits with a lot of juice because I really could not eat. Then at about 8 weeks I asked my doctor for zofran because I was having a hard time functioning at home and i have a 4 year olf. It helped a lot, and after 12 weeks it got much better. I still get it but not like it was, I am 34 weeks now but I could be feeling sick because I am near the end.

I used the sea bands, the preggie pops (these were a godsend for me) i also ate fresh ginger, and nibbled on bread/crackers/and pretzels all the time while I had the MS.

Re: How do you control your morning sickness???

I used the sea sickness bands as well...and the preggo drops (pops but without the stick--they are really good). Plus, I found the more salt I ate the better, and carbs made me feel better. Things that were heavy in my stomach (bagels were a godsend---salt bagels). Its really trial and error.

Feel better

I was sick from the minute I woke up to the minute I went to sleep. I used the sea bands. Anything peppermint helped. Peppermint candies, peppermint patties, peppermint tea. I also kept a small bag of crackers and pretzels on my nightstand. Anything ginger. Ginger ale, ginger candies and ginger tea. I also lived on saltines and peanut butter, bagels and english muffins.

If the m/s is really bad talk to your doctor. I had m/s pretty bad and spoke to my doctor. He prescribed phenergan for me and it was a miracle.

last pregnancy I found ginger altoids worked some and water w/ lemon.

Re: How do you control your morning sickness???

I didn't have it - but my friend had it 24/7 for the first 5 months - she said ginger anything worked for her (tea, candy, cookies - whatever) also, cinnamon helped her too -

Good Luck !! Hope you feel better soon
