Can't keep any food down...but can kinda keep water down...HELP!

in 2nd Trimester

So I'm 15 weeks pregnant now...and still very nauseous.  I've tried eating small meals/snacks every couple of hours and drinking the 10-15 glasses of water.  But no matter what I eat, it ends up in the toilet.  The good thing is that the water has been staying down...well for the most part.  The bad thing...is that since Sunday...I haven't been able to eat anything, besides crackers/toast/chicken noodle soup (but even they come up within 5-15 mins after I eat it).  I don't know what to do...I'm frustrated and having cold sweats.  Can someone please help me out?!  I'm pretty much begging for any advice right now. 

I also have tried anti-nausea pills and ginger pills/tea/candy, plus lemonade...and nothing helps.

    Are you on zofran? I would call your MD with any signs of dehydration.

    If you haven't been able to keep anything down since Sunday call your doc! If you have them, try a popsicle cold/good flavor and light. GL!

    Have you taken Zofran? If you have and it isn't helping, you may want to get to the ER - you may end up dehydrated and/or have hyperemesis gravidarum - which can be really bad. Here's the Wiki link to info:

    I would call your dr.  I went 24 hrs without keeping down any food and minimal water around 16 weeks.  My dr. sent me in for IV fluids.  She said she didn't want me getting too dehydrated or run down.  I also got a large dose of zofran in my IV.  I felt like a million bucks for the next two days.  I still get sick every so often, but it is finally starting to subside.  Good Luck!

    I'd definitely call your doctor. Not sure if you tried zofran yet but that didn't work for me so they gave me phenergan which works like a charm. Well more or less anyways - it helps me keep food down most of the time.

    When I didn't keep anything down for 24 hours they made me get an IV ASAP so definitely get checked out. I'm sorry you're still dealing with m/s too.

    I haven't called the doctor yet.  I was going to, but it's too late.  So I'm going to call the triage nurse hotline and see what they say.  I tried the popsicle and kinda kept it down...still seeing what is going on.  So we'll see what ends up happening to me.  Huh?

    Just keep drinking the water, even if you are puking it up. It helps with not getting dehydrated. Besides that lay down in cool, darkness. Nothing worked for me either. At least now I'm only throwing up a couple of time a week or so. GL. I know it's awful.
