Nausea. Please help. I cant function!
I know this has been asked before but for some reason I cant find them..
Ive tried so far...
eating a few ritz crackers before i even stand up out of bed
eating smaller meals
eating bland
trying tea now
ginger ale (helped for a bit but made me so bloated that i also wanted to cry so thats out now)
im just so sick i could hardly function, i have no appetite whatsoever but i try my best to swallow some crackers but it still doesnt work.
also kinda on a different note, are we allowed to take probiotic pills? i know that on a normal basis, there are supposed to be great for digestion and your stomach

Re: Nausea. Please help. I cant function!

ginger ale helped a lot--if its making you bloated maybe try to make it flat?

Ginger gum took the edge off for me. I was then able to eat a little and that helped. I bought the gum in cvs near the motion sickness meds.

Re: Nausea. Please help. I cant function!
Water with lemon. Lemon combats nausea...
Setlzer
carbs... I found all i could eat was carbs... Bagels english muffins rolls toast...
Plain white rice
pastina with a lil butter
plain chicken
i couldnt eat anything in a sauce... No salads... I was so nauseas some days nothing helped unfortunately... Just would stay in bed those days with a cold rag on my head...
Feel better! It will pass and remember its all for a good thing. They say the sicker you are the better hehe

Ginger snaps, jolly ranchers and mint gum and lemonade. Each one worked for a bit and then I'd have to find something else. Feel better!

Re: Nausea. Please help. I cant function!
I heard sour patch kids help. Or smelling a lemon. Does it begin when you first wake up? If so try to eat crackers before even getting out of bed.
It's like a catch 22. You need to eat to raise your blood sugar and combat the nausea but it's hard to eat when you feel so sick.
Feel better!

Re: Nausea. Please help. I cant function!
Lots of suggestions!
I just wanted to add that when you do have an appetite, no matter how small, try to eat something. For me it was worse in the eveing so I always made sure I had a good breakfast.
I hope the suggestions these ladies offered you help. If the don't, talk to your doctor there are meds you can take.
Take care and I hope you are feeling better soon.

Re: Nausea. Please help. I cant function!
Zofran is the only thing that has worked for me this pregnancy. Last pregnancy, all the suggestions helped a ton and I never had to take any meds. This time, I've been sick since 5.5 w and I'm over 17 w now and still puking and nauseous almost 24 hours a day. The zofran works like a miracle.

Re: Nausea. Please help. I cant function!
Lemon slices in water and lemonade are usually lifesavers for me. Today is one of those days where nothing works. Just discovered ginger tea, so I'm trying some of that. I try to remind myself to be grateful b/c it's supposed to mean the baby is getting big and strong.

Re: Nausea. Please help. I cant function!
Try anything sour. I lived on Sour Patch Kids and Sour Straws. Also, Babies R Us sells sour sucking candies that help with the nausea. I hope you feel better.

Re: Nausea. Please help. I cant function!
Unfortunalty nothing worked for me. I had a very bad 10-11 weeks, the only thing that started to work was Zofran, but that only worked in like week 13-17... Unfortunatly you are just going to have to wait most of it out. Goodluck!!! i feel for ya!!! hang in there, you're not alone!!!!
