Horrible Feeling of Empty Stomach Constantly and Nausea

mariaanddanny

I am close to 9 weeks pregnant and I have this horrible feeling of an empty stomach constantly w/ nausea. It's horrible. I don't know what to do but eat or drink water. Any recommendations???

I have the same, I've just been eating constantly. I find ginger ale and arrowroot cookies help; I'm also on 4 Diclectin a day.

I have been feeling the same way. I eat but sometimes it gets worse. So I've cut back to having an apple or drinking lots of water or ginger ale. It feels like it will never go away

Eating constantly here too but feels horrible. Driving me crazy. Hope it goes away soon.

Same here. It's none stop. This is my 3rd pregnancy but I have never experienced anything close to this in my 2 previous pregnancies. Plus I'm so tired. It's killing me. I work full time and all I want to do us rest.

I feel the same! I feel nauseous so I eat to help but then can only eat a few bites before I'm FULL!?!? Its so weird! I have been trying to eat mini meals/ snacks whenever I feel that way and it seems to help. ( fruit, yogurt, granola bar, cheese,) Good luck! This is definitely not the fun part of being pregnant!

I feel the same way all the time- I constantly have that empty stomach nausea feeling so I'm always looking for something to eat but after I eat that makes me nauseated. I'm so miserable! I take zofran but it's not helping.

This. Exactly this. Beyond frustrating.

Salty crunchy snacks seem to help, like nuts....high calorie intake though, so I try not to over do it. It will get better! I think I read during my first pregnancy that morning sickness typically peaks around 9 weeks and then starts to get better.

I am at my wits end with it! I feel so sick but as soon as eat, I feel better. But 20 minutes later I feel STARVING! My body literally wants me to be eating 20 times a day! I really cannot take it anymore.

Ditto, but with this major heartburn shit I can't seem to eat anything :-(

I am the same way, empty stomach feeling, nausea all the time. Not tired, still doing Insanity. I find after working out I'm more energized and eat a Luna protein bar 20 minutes later. The nausea comes back after a few hours. I'm also soooo thirsty all the time!

I am the same way as @Ravenclaw314.  On top of the nausea, my heartburn never goes away.  It's really hard to eat anything!

Yep, eating constantly. Wish I could say that I was constantly eating carrots and apples but because I'm never really hungry (just nauseous), food isn't actually appealing, so I'm on more of a two-year-old diet. 

Tea and sparkling water help too... but not as well as food. Makes me feel like a whale, already!
