I have a feeling I am speaking too soon.

I have not felt sick at all today.  I went running, cleaned the kitchen, and I am about to settle in to do some homework.

No vomiting or urge to vomit.

Unfortunately I think it is tied to the fact I haven't taken a pre-natal vitamin since Friday AM.  I think I need to switch to the Flinstone gummies.

    I handle them much better when I take them at night. It also got better when I switched to the One A Day brand

    1. Flintstones rock as prenatals.

    2. I said the same thing at 6 weeks.  6 weeks 1 day though, I woke up feeling awful and it just got worse and worse for over 2 months.  Ugh.  I hope you manage to miss out on all that fun.

    I have One A Day and no matter what time of day I take them they make me want to vomit.  I have always struggled with that brand...even when I was taking just the plain Woman's vitamin.

    Bummer. The only thing is the pill that smells like fish grosses me out.

    Just around when I was 6 weeks my prenatals were making me really sick I think I skilled them like 4 days in a row, I had to swallow flintstones because even those made me barfy...

    I had good days and bad days, but around 10-11 weeks I started feeing much better.

    I've been puking since the day before my BFP but for some reason prenatals haven't so much bothered me (or maybe they have, but everything else has bothered me more so I haven't noticed). Anyways I have had good luck taking them at bed time with a gingerale - either the Target brand or the NatureMade with DHA in it. I hope you avoid m/s altogether somehow!

    It hit me at 8 weeks and holy lord it was awful. It stuck around until about 20 weeks and still gets me some days. I hope it skips you!

    I've had it pretty bad for almost 3 weeks non-stop.  This is the first day I have felt normal during my run.  I'm hoping it stays this way.  I've completely cut out sweets, just ran out and bought the Flinstones gummies, and I am going to cut out all beverages but milk and water...and my AM cup of coffee.

    Luckily I am having a huge food aversion to any sweet food, so I've been eating very healthy.  I am wondering if that is helping.

    I'm sure eating healthy helps - I know in 1st tri I couldn't eat any sweets either from the m/s. But the one thing that I could not cut out was ginger ale - without it I don't think I would be able to eat still lol. Kind of ridiculous since I will be in 3rd tri in a few days.

    Just an FYI- the flintstone gummies don't have any calcium or iron. So you will like still want to take a supplement with those. I used the gummies and supplements for my worst month of morning sickness. 

    The flintstone chewables do have the iron and calcium.

    I'm not worried about calcium as I am a dairy product whore.  Iron...maybe concerned.  I'll decide after I meet with my dr next week for my ultrasound.

    Thanks for the head's up!

    No problem. I didn't realize it right away when I started taking mine and figured it could be easily overlooked.

    And I don't know why I put the random "like" into my prior comment. I don't normally type in valley girl speak.
