New Plan

bensmommy518 · January 2014

So after my breakdown the other night over this constant vomiting (thanks again to all who offered support) I had a serious conversation with my doctor. I have not gained a single lb since before thanksgiving and less than 10lbs total since the BFP. She is starting me on a new med - Reglan - which should help the food move through my stomach faster and help reduce my vomiting. I took the first dose last night and vomited before but nothing after. At this point I am being cautiously optimistic. Fingers crossed!

I really hope this works for you! I can't imagine. So sorry you are going through this.

Fun fact about reglan, it's also prescribed in connection with production of breast milk. I took it for a few weeks under supervision of my lc. Maybe you will feel better and produce a ton of bm!

I hope it works for you!

@kvochka I was actually just reading about that online. She gave me 90 pills (supposed to take up to 4 per day) so I may have some extra to help jumpstart milk production if I run into any problems.

I'm so glad this could be a solution. I'm on it now to improve my booby juice so this could be a bonus for you!

Do glad your doctor is doing something to help. Hope you feel better soon.

Hope you have been able to keep breakfast down, too! I'm really glad your OB had another route to try. And I hope you get boob juice benefits WITHOUT any depression. As if post partum hormones aren't enough on their own, later.

I hope this helps!!! I took Reglan for the first 18 weeks. I hate that you are just now being offered it but I truly hope this does the trick for you.

bensmommy518 · January 2014

Thanks everyone. DH and are will be watching out for the side effects for sure. Just from my reading online it seems this med better matches my symptoms so that give me hope. The real tests will be lunch and dinner bc that is what I have been struggling with the most.

Jackapatamus · January 2014

Hope this helps and you feel better!

I hope it helps you! Sending good thoughts your way

Im sorry to hear that you're dealing with constant vomiting. I still throw up once every morning, but yours sounds 10x more horrible. I hope the meds is helping you keep your lunch and dinner down.

Good luck! It is truly so awful, and "indigestion" is just not a bad enough word for it. I said a few months ago, they need a new term for it, like how there is HG for bad "morning sickness" there really does need to be a whole new term for people who can't keep anything down due to reflux.
