Post partum nausea...help!

Karenpreggo

Anybody else out there? Im 2 weeks PP and the last 2 says, its like Im back in the first trimester.  Any tips to ease this? Im already drinking tons of water for breast feeding...

When I was first tri and super sick I did a nighttime combo of unisom and vitamin b6- unisom is basically Benadryl so don't worry it'll make you sleep through a cry. You could also try just the b6 and a candy called ginger chews- really good and they can dissolve in hot water for a nice tea.

Yes, the unisom & b6 is awesome! And like @JoMunson said, it won't knock you out, but it definitely does help with returning to sleep when you are awakened, which is a bonus.

Thanks ladies! I Spoke too soon - this looks like the stomach flu.  Nursing a baby between frantic trips to the bathroom is not fun. Heres to hoping for a 24 hr bug max

Oh no! That's the worst. I got salmonella poisoning when my son was 3 weeks old, I remember having to pop him off while he was nursing and leaving him screaming on the bed while I sprayed breast milk everywhere running to the bathroom. Hope this clears up quickly for you!!
