Sour candies for nausea?

Do you eat/suck on sour candies for nausea? I've been eating Sour Patch Kids but it's only the act of eating them that makes me feel better. So I eat a ton but then feel worse with a giant lump of gummies in my stomach. Do you have any other sour candy suggestions?

Re: Sour candies for nausea?

  • The sour preggie pops are amazing (I hated the ginger ones.... but love the sours)  They make sour lifesavers too I think.  I would just say something you suck on as opposed to a gummy so it's not so heavy on your stomach

  • I was going to suggest sour patch kids... what about warheads?  I'm not sure where you can get them in store, but they are pretty sour.

  • I had the same problem with the sour patch kids! I found that sour jelly belly jelly beans were better. I also like jolly ranchers.

  • Get b-natal drops or pops from the pharmacy (otc). Its a boost of vitamin B6. I got mine at walgreens and they help!
  • Jolly Ranchers have really helped me.

  • Also picked up the sour apple B-Natal, recommended by OBs office - a lot less sugar than preggie pops, the sugar makes me feel sick
  • Almost any hard tack candy is pretty effective at getting rid of nausea for me. Jolly ranchers are probably my favorite though (: good luck finding something that works for you.

  • I use lemon drops, or just any sour hard candy.  I normally cannot tolerate sour things very well, but it really helps with the nausea when I need it.

  • Good ol lemon drops. The old fashion kind. I have a bag at work 1 in the car and 2 at home along with lemon heads. They have been a life saver!

    Maybe this is part of my problem. Of course last time around the sour patch kids came from a coworker's candy bowl so I didn't eat nearly as many...oops! This time DH kindly picked up a bag for me from the grocery store.
  • This post seriously just made me go out and buy some Sour Patch Watermelon candy lol. Felt sooooo good to eat but now I feel bloated haha!
