Teacher first tri?

cougbri9

So, I teach and I'm 9w6d. So far, i've been lucky since we have not had a lot of school due to conferences, so I can sit and take it easy. This coming week is a normal week of full days... I'm worried because I have been feeling MS off and on and it lasts all day. Ideas for helping to keep my food down and energy up while teaching high school??

I dont have any advice for you. But, I sure hope you find your answers!

Ill be thinking of you. Let me know how it goes.

You don't teach full days during conference time???  Omg, I'm so jealous!  The whole month of November I will be having conferences before and after school and I'm really nervous.  My m/s hasn't kicked in yet, but I don't know what I will do if it does.  Sorry I can't be of more help.

We do our conferences all at once (last week), and the last day i taught a full day was last tues! monday is going to be killer.

I'm a nurse, but I work busy 12 hour shifts where it's hard to find time to pee, let alone get sick. I got a prescription for zofran, and take that if I start getting queasy. I don't take it much when I'm home, but I really can't afford to not be at my best at work, so I do my best to muddle through my shift.

I also pack a lot in my lunch and snack frequently when I have a moment.

I teach middle school and also have MS.  Like the pp said, I've been doing little snacks.  I have also found that ginger ale helps. 

GL!

I teach middle school and have been EXHAUSTED all day.  It has been very difficult for me to make it through the day with any energy to teach. I also teach 5 classes in a row and am starving.  I have no advice, I just feel your pain.

Also, we have to teach all day and do 2 full nights of conferences in 2 weeks!  The week is really gonna suck.

Good luck to you.

I have lots of snacks and preggie pops are helping a bunch too (you can get them from babies r us and motherhood maternity).

Good luck! Hope you are feeling better soon!

I'm not throwing up, but I'm nauseous pretty much all the time. I've found that a combination of preggie pop drops, seabands, and munching on crackers really helps me. I'm not sure if one helps more than the other, b/c I use all of them. I might also try B6.

i've been asking my teacher friends how they dealt with it now that my nausea is slowing getting worse!  a few just munch on crackers but a lot of my friends said the only thing to get them through was hard candy.  i think it might be time to keep a bag in my desk!

I teach middle school and I have been struggling with MS for the past few weeks. ?I try to eat small snacks during passing periods and Jolly Ranchers have helped, as well. ?Hopefully I will be seeing the end of MS soon! ?GL!
