1st Trimester

Do preggie pops work? If so, where do you buy them?

Despite keeping food in my stomach, and taking it easy, I've been super nauseous this evening. I'm so worried about feeling sick at work tomorrow. I need some sort of quick fix I can grab tomorrow morning, in case I have a repeat of today. Do preggie pops really work. Ginger candies? Can you buy this stuff and Walgreens or CVS?

    My nausea has kicked in full force this week, uuugh, not fun! I bought preggie drops online, and they taste really good, but honeslty I think they are just a jolly rancher in a different wrapper, haha.  They do seem to help a bit, but it may be a placebo effect.  Lemon water also seems to help for me. I haven't tried any ginger stuff because I hate ginger, so I wouldn't know how that works. 

    Good luck, hopefully it passes soon....

  • I have been using life savers and lemon heads. They seem to do the trick. And the lemon water actually works wonders. I have seen it on message boards alot. I have been putting it in some ice water or decaf iced tea in the morning and drinking it during my commute to work and found that those mornings I don't feel nausous. Now I am even keeping a bottle of lemon juice in the fridge at work too.

  • I tried them & they seemed to take the edge off, but doesn't totally get rid of it. I got them at Motherhood Maternity. Also, if you go to Walgreens ask the pharmacy tech about ginger flavored gum. It's made by the 'Sea-Band' people (i think) but it is for motion sickness & morning sickness. It tastes funny but it did help some. Good luck!

    Preggie pops main ingredient is just citric acid.  Lemonheads did the trick for me, and you can usually get them at Walgrens for much cheaper than a bag of preggie pops.

  • Any kind of sour-ish hard candy is a substitute. I thought Jolly Ranchers were a good one.
