Go get Sea Bands right now...

If you are having nausea... Go get them! I was having all day, couldn't move or else I would puke kind of nausea. So I went and bought a pack at Walgreens and thank God for them!!! They were on the bottom shelf under the Pepto in my store. $13 for two... Well worth it. I can't have the candy because of my type 1 diabetes so this was my last resort before medication. I still have a small bit of upset stomach but I can at least function and was even able to clean house some this morning. So thankful for this. :) happy Friday!!

Re: Go get Sea Bands right now...

  • I wore these constantly when I was pregnant with my dd. My dh called me Micheal Jordan... apparently he found it amusing to compare his ill wife with a basketball player. Go figure...
    But they worked great!

  • Yep I got these too, they are wonderful I use them with my zofran and I can actually work and get a lot of stuff done instead of sitting on the couch all day.

  • I just ordered mine from Amazon. I had to take the day off work because the sickness is that bad. Been in my PJs all day! :-(
  • I took mine off today for 15 minutes to take a shower and I got out of the shower and was almost sick just in those 15 minutes. So I think these are now a permanent addition to my wardrobe.... I'm thinking of bedazzling it or something. Maybe putting chevron stripes on it with fabric paint? I mean the swat band thing is cute and all.... But not really my style. :) haha, all jokes aside, I can't say how thankful enough I am and next friend who finds out she's pregnant, I'm buying her these as a gift... I didn't have to go lie down at all because of nausea today, and I was able to keep all of my food down. Yay!!
  • I love my Sea Bands. Lifesaver

    Those of you that use them- do they just ward off slight feelings of nausea or do they really prevent all out throwing up?

  • They definitely ward of throwing up completely for me! I can still have slightly upset stomach with it but I don't have the nausea almost at all.. If I do start to feel slightly nauseated, I just press down on the little plastic piece a bit more for a few seconds and it usually helps. Also, ginger tablets help a ton too!
  • I tried them with my 1st pregnancy & i felt horrible!! It was the worst day ever! I was so close to going to the hospital!
  • I went and bought them today. Didn't work a bit.
  • I got them today too. They aren't helping me much either. I also it the sea band ginger gum though, and it does give slight relief for a little bit.
  • For those who have not had success, have you tried ginger tablets? They are in the vitamin aisle and help me a lot when mine gets really bad.
  • I'm going to look for the vitamins today.
  • I got the seabands and the gum yesterday- I slept with the bands on and had a bag of crackers and the gum right next to me to start using the moment I wake up. We have family pictures this morning at a park near our house and I really don't want to be getting sick in the bushes. I really hope these work! :(

  • I think the vitamin b6 seems to be helping me some. My dr told me to try the sea bands I just haven't gotten any yet.
    Fucking bump!!!!
