Any tricks or helpful tips for dealing with m/s?

My morning sickness has just begun and so far saltine crackers and vernors/sprite or gatorade are the only few things I am doing to help my stomach until I am able to get food down.  I went to babies r us today and bought some preggie pops (which a friend recommended) but they don't seem to help any.  My main concern is something to help with my m/s at least while I'm at work.  At home I can just deal but at work I really need some help here!  Any suggestions?  Anything that seemed to work for you?

My MW recommended taking extra Vit B6. I was surprised but it really did seem to help. I also take unisom (doxylamine) at night and it really helps and makes my mornings go more smoothly. As far as foods go, I would just eat anything that sounded good- ice cream, popsicles, fruit, whatever. One day all I could get down was a milkshake. Good luck!

I didn't really have it bad, but my SIL has.  She says the b-natal pops are AWESOME.  She also got a little relief from dum-dums.

I found that it helped if I ate small meals.  And anything sour (small amounts) was amazing to me.  I had Sour Patch Kids everywhere (desk, car, home), 4 or 5 and I felt much better.

sea bands really helped me. They are wrist bands for sea sickness but they did help. I am going to the drug store tomorrow to get some new ones.

Eating helped mine; I will STILL throw up if I don't eat every 2 hours.  I ate only carbs for the first few months because that's all I could stand.  I also couldn't handle water, so I drank water with splashes of juice in it.   

You have to find what your body will handle.  With DS I could only eat white peaches and fresh fruit for the first trimester.  This time I couldn't even look at fruit.
