Hello Everyone!
This is my first post on the bump. I am 7 1/2 weeks pregnant, and had no symptoms until about 6 weeks. Now, I am dealing with nausea (no vomiting... as of yet...) I wonder if anyone else is experiencing the same type of problem. It's not constant nausea, but I cannot be too hungry, or too full at any time or I feel like I am going to vomit. It seems like if I wait 10 minutes too long to eat when I am hungry, I have horrible nausea and am unable to eat at all. I also find myself getting full faster while eating. Once I hit full, I start feeling nauseous again. It's a very delicate balance. I am trying to eat several small meals throughout the day. I even have baggies of pretzels and saltines in my purse at all times, but I still am having the problem. Anyone else experiencing the same problem? Has anything worked for you?
Re: Nausea
This is exactly how I felt with my DS and now with this pregnancy it's hit me even sooner. I force myself to eat small meals even though I feel like it's going to make me worse. It always seems to hold off some of the nausea until my next meal. Right now, I'm sipping ginger ale and eating hard candies. It helps a little.
I am the same way with the eating. I have to eat before I get hungry, otherwise, I'm done and Im nauseous for the rest of the day. I keep granola bars by my bed (i get one with chocolate peices in to boost my sugar levels a bit). also, oatmeal as helped, same with yogurt and granola. i eat lots of fruit and cucumbers, eggs, toast, pasta)
stay away from artificial flavours and acidic foods (ketchup, tomatoes/sauce)

Yes I had 24 hr mild nausea. I didnt realize how bad it was untill I got it to go away (for most of the time) Probiotics (to help with digesting and bowels) Sparkling water, homeopathic remedy nux vomica 30c (also helped with my dizziness) totally safe in pregnancy but still talk to your Dr., also ginger, extra water and smaller meals more frequently. good luck!
