in need of a serious M/S remedy... Please Help

Mumma2B · September 2010

So, I don't like taking things if I don't REALLY need them but the m/s has been almost unbearable this time around. I feel terrible from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed and it seems to be getting worse as the days drag by. I would like to do some research on my own before I just go into the drs. office and she hands me a perscription of something. Could you ladies please share any homeopathic remedies that you have found that have worked and also if you are on meds what are you taking.

TIA!

Sour jolly ranchers worked for me. I was nauseous all day long but never threw up.

Ginger tea has been my savior these past few days - I bought the ginger chew candies from Whole Foods and melt two of them in a cup of boiling water and it really helps. Ritz crackers and Cheerios also are good to snack on throughout the day.

Candy and breaking open fresh ginger and smelling it.

Really, I tried everything else and the only thing that helped was Zofran. I was getting dehydrated, and that is so dangerous, for me and the baby.

I have been taking B6 2 to 3 times a day. I think it is helping a little. Also, I ordered Mommy's bliss morning sickness magic from iherb.com.

It has B6, ginger, folic acid and raspberry leaf. I'm thinking this should be stronger than B6 alone. It is definitely worth a try. Good luck!

Seabands... seriously. This is the only thing that worked for me.

I tried everything and ended up dehydrated and MISERABLE. Got a prescription for Diclectin and it has seriously saved my life. This is a Canadian drug and I forget the name of the US equivalent so you can look it up if that is where you are. I highly recommend it! It is completely safe for pregnancy and like you I hate to take anything I don't need but this really is worth it. I couldn't make it through a day without it.

This time around is insane with m/s so I am on Zofran. Last time was a bit easier and I did my midwives' recommendations: fresh lemonade and potato chips. Something about the tart and salt. It worked.

warm coke.. caffeine free but they said some caffeine is ok. I lived off of saltines for a while, I was geting so sick and losing weight I had to go on zofran also. Eating very small meals throughout the day is better then trying to eat 3 big meals. good luck! I heard B6 works for some people so try that, it made me feel worse!

Sparkling mineral water. And smelling a lemon.

I try to snack continuously throughout the day so that my stomach is never completely empty which seems to be what makes MS the worst for me. I also have a small snack before bed and then I eat something before I get out of bed in the morning (either an apple, bannana or a few crackers) about 20 minutes before actually getting out of bed.

There are gingerales with real ginger in it so you could try that. I know it totally sucks so I hope you find something that will help.
