Road trip in exactly one hour.

14 hours in a truck + all day sickness = BAD trip, bitchy pregnant lady on board.

    Do you have any meds?

    You could grab some Dramamine before you leave. Something has to be better than nothing!

    I've begged and pleaded (read: bribed) the baby with ANY kind of pet if it would stop making me sick. Well baby didn't hold up it's end of the deal..

    oh i feel for you!  dramamine has helped me through some of my worst days, and i know this sounds gross but don't brush your teeth until it all passes- for me the strong toothpaste taste was just enough to get me going all over again.  GOOD LUCK!

    I am in the same boat. Except our drive is only about an hour. It does however include a ferry boat and a windy road, so I predict some major projectile vomiting out the window. Awesome.

    I hope the trip goes well for you!

    The best advice I can give is to make sure you bring some crackers and other snacks....Munching always seems to settle my tummy down.

    I always suck on gummy bears while I'm in the car (driving 2 hours to my IL's several times since our bfp). I think the sugars, and having some sort of taste in my mouth, helps. Try it!

    Otherwise, hold on for the ride. I feel for you!!

    What about seabands? Ginger tea (iced) helped me.

    Or take a tylenol PM and try to sleep, should help with your nausea too.

    Ditto seabands, those are great for motion sickness and m/s!

    I'm so glad Thanksgiving dinner is 5 minutes away this year.
