I'm tired of puking.

I'm tired of puking. Seriously. I've already been in for IV fluids on Monday (electrolytes were ok) after throwing up all solids for 12 hours. I was Rx'd metoclopramide and told to continue unisom/b6. I can't take it at work, so I got by on just b6. I didn't take the metoclopramide because it has 3 stickers that say "may cause dizziness" all over it. With a 45 minute commute and being responsible for patients under anesthesia, I skipped it until I could see how I'd feel on it. (Today)
I vomited right after getting home last night, so I didn't take my unisom/b6 either. My stomach was so upset I was afraid to. I got up at 5:30 (pets hungry!) and had some toast with PB and milk. Took my metoclopramide and prenatal vitamin, too. Yep... barfed it all up an hour later. Come on!!!! Enough already!!!!
I'm 7 weeks today. I can't do this for 4-6 more weeks!!!! Or longer...argggg!

I'm so sorry! Is this your first pregnancy? I was never sick with my first two but I'm getting that all day nausea with this one, hoping it doesn't turn into vomiting! I hope things get better sooner than later for you!

I am so sorry...I had HG with my first pregnancy and it never went away, so I feel your pain. Have you tried sucking on jolly ranchers, sea bands, ginger ale, ginger tea, crackers, potatoe chips (unhealthy, I know but they help me) are you drinking enough/getting enough sleep? I found last time if I was overlytired k threw way more....I hope some of these help. If not, hang in there mama I know it is so hard...but I promise in the end it will all be worth it!

It's my third (5th if you count two mc's 10 years ago). I was not like this before! I had some nausea last time, but nothing like this!
I'm doing it all... seabands, ginger ale, saltines, expensive preggie pops...
I'm so over it.

Ugh I am so so sorry! I bet you are over it! I have my fingers crossed for you that it short lasting and you feel better soon! - so frustrating when nothing is working

I'm certainly not ready to jump to Zofran. They said they'd consider it if I was in a bad place. Let's hope I can keep something down today!
I may grab a different vitamin today. I really don't think that's the trigger. I puke in the evening, too.
Jokingly, I've concluded its twins. Why else am I getting my ass handed to me? Lol...

I work in anesthesia too! I feel your pain. Today I dropped my patient in recovery and ran to puke before I could even give report =[ Yesterday I discovered the wonders of progresso chickarina soup for lunch. It's the only thing that has helped me. Soooo soup for lunch for a while it is! So hard not being able to eat whenever I need to.

I had HG my first pregnancy, vomited everyday all day til I was 7 months. It was absolutely miserable. Everyone at work would clear the bathroom when I walked in.
Ice chips, and a scrambled egg in the morning helped alot. I was also on Zofran which did help but I wouldn't get on it again.
I am almost 7 weeks and tend to just get sick in the morning.
I sip water all day and snack all day as well.

I'm about to buy ginger root and make ginger smoothies, there are a few tasty looking recipes on pintrest. I tried ginger root tea last pregnancy and it was just too nasty to drink.

Thankfully, I survived the day. No vomiting since the early am! I took one dose of the reglan....and I felt terrible! Not sure I want a constant headache on top of everything.
Tomorrow is a new day... I'll try new vitamins at night, and give my belly a rest with any meds.

I found taking my prenatals at night helped immensely. And if you have to, just take 2 of the flinstones chewable vitamins since the iron in prenatals tends to worsen nausea and vomiting.

I feel like I'm dying. All day I haven't been able to even hold down water. OB says if I'm still this way in the morning, I need to go to the ER for fluids. What I thought was a little ms this morning is looking more like a stomach bug. Urgh....I'm really hoping this isn't here to stay.

Have you considered smoking marijuana?

KIDDING!!!!!
