Pregnant after 35

11weeks and still NAUSEOUS so HUNGRY but....

can't look at anything or smell anything I freak out!!!  I'm so happy about this pregnancy, but it's so hard to be joyful when I feel like crap all day!

I want to actually eat, I wish I could.. I mean I have an excuse to eat for two and I can hardly eat for one.  I tried zofran, i bought the sea bands NOTHING is working.  ugh!!!! 

 Sorry,.... just venting.  :(

Re: 11weeks and still NAUSEOUS so HUNGRY but....

  • Sorry to hear the nausea is kicking your butt. I would just keep looking at/trying different foods/drinks until you find something that sits with you. I was not nearly as bad off as you sound, but homemade lemonade was really good at chasing the queasies away for me. One girl I know made ginger ale "slushies"--she'd put some ginger ale in a cup with a little salt in it and then put it in the freezer until it was sort of half frozen. Then she ate it with a spoon.

    Good luck, and I hope you can find something that will work for you.

    ETA: I see this is your first post, so welcome to the board and congratulations on your pregnancy!

  • I have always had bad morning sickness too.  I found that mashed potatoes helped me.  I needed really bland food that didn't smell.  Poor DH was restricted in what he could eat too because there were some things I just couldn't stand the smell of cooking in the house.

    Try to make sure you eat small snacks frequently (like every 2-3 hours).  When your stomach is empty is when the nausea is the worse.  GL and welcome!

  • I'm so sorry.  I was there.  Luckily it got a lot better at 14 weeks for me.  I feel normal now, only I can't eat much because I'm petite and the growing uterus limits my space!  But at least I'm not constantly nauseated.  Hang in there, I know that's not much.  But this too shall pass.  Nothing really worked for me either.  :(

  • So sorry you have awful MS.  I didn't really have much with either of my pregnancies, but I can sympathize with the constant hunger.  I can never seem to feel like I've eaten enough, not early on, not now at the end.
    Son #1 is already 2! Not too much longer until Son No.2 arrives! Lilypie Maternity tickers
