Nausea

soon to be mrs umpierre · June 2014

Hi ladies. Yesterday I found out I am pregnant. According to all the million apps I downloaded I am currently 5 weeks along. I unfortunately had a miscarriage in January. It was the worst feeling I have ever been through, as I never experienced loss of any kind. But anyway to my question. How are you ladies dealing with nausea. With this pregnancy I feel much more sick than I did with my other one. I am exhausted and nauseous all the time. Anyone have any advice?

I took 1 zofran last week it was so bad and that helped, but lately I've been smelling mint oil my hubby got an herbal store that surprisingly really helps. You look a little nuts sniffing a bottle all the time but it's made me feel better! He also got me ginger candy which was good but the mint oil has mostly helped.

I find that if I make sure to eat small snacks/meals every 2 hours, it helps alot. Also, ginger ale works for me.

I try to eat small snacks. My nausea flares up on an empty stomach. Other than that (carbs a lot of the time), ginger helps me sometimes. Or I just curl up at home....work nausea blows!

This... the longer I go without eating, the more intense the nausea and the hunger pains. I try to keep a snack nearby. Ginger works. Ive started grating fresh ginger and adding it to my applesause cups.

None yet really but I'm only 5 weeks. With my first I threw up once or twice but was otherwise fine. With my second I was more nauseous but never actually threw up, I did take zofran here and there.

Ginger chews have saved my work life

Eating frequently. For me 2 hours is too long to go, so it's little snacks pretty much all the time. When I get up in the middle of he night I eat some Cheerios that I keep bedside. Drink plenty of water. I found that sucking on hard candy (dum dum lollies for me) helps get that gross taste out of my mouth. And smelling peppermint helps too.

I've had constant nausea (w/o vomiting) for almost 4 wks already and haven't found the magic solution. Ginger chews were too strong for me. Nothing noticeable with nausea bands. Keep trying until you find what works *best* for you.

Agree with all the PP's. Ginger is a lifesaver during the first trimester. You can get ginger candy, make ginger tea or drink gingerale. Frequent snacking is also your friend - keep a bag of crackers with you at all times. If you do spew make sure you are drinking extra water to keep yourself hydrated!

I'm all for taking zofran... I'm such a weenie when it comes to feeling sick but my prescription is way too expensive so I've been living off preggie drops and ginger ale. My nausea is the worst at 1-3 pm. Also staying away from dairy.

SeaBands.

Try them. Love them.

It's been so brutal. No vomiting here big constant nausea that is so intense it seems impossible to deal with at times. I try SO HARD to snack but I basically have an aversion to everything ever made it grown. Ginger- which I usually love gave me the worst heartburn and it's all I could taste for hours. I was so bummed because I usually love it. I am a big fan of essential oils and am grateful for the suggestion of mint oil. I will definitely be trying. I don't care if I look nuts. I would sniff a bag of dog poo if it helped at this point. No joke. I can't function!

Congratulations on your pregnancy. :-)

Constant snacking and my bffs in the morning, 1 Pepcid Complete and 2 Tums.

Drink lots of water and make sure you aren't constipated. Dehydration and constipation can make nausea worse.

pomegranite09 · June 2014

I bought some Preggie Drops from Babies R Us. They help to subside my nausea.

kayshaspoon · June 2014

I've had nausea but no vomiting yet. I did buy some ginger tea in case it hits soon though. I'll be 6 weeks tomorrow.

mrsherr22 · June 2014

Have any of you nausea ladies tried Sea bands? There is no medication in them it's just a band that goes in your wrists and is recommended for morning sickness/cancer patients/and sea sickness. You can get them at any drug store for around $12 I must say that have helped! A button pushes on your inside wrist and is a pressure point to help the nausea. It could also just be a placebo but it's worth

I'm 6w 2d I've been eating sea salted almonds and animal crackers

reneamac313 · June 2014

Congratulations!! Ginger chews have been the best thing ever for me...although I'm currently out so I'm spraying Caudalie's Beauty Elixir on my face consistently since it's got some mint in it...but I definitely can't keep that up. I agree with a lot of the other ladies as well when it comes to small, frequent meals. That has made a big difference as well.

I'm 2 days short of 9 weeks and have been nauseous for the last 3. Have only thrown up twice but I feel sick 24/7. It's so hard to eat because I have an aversion to anything I think of eating. I am gonna try the ginger candies and the arm bands to see of that helps. What are those preggie drops you guys were mentioning?

kdhuling · June 2014

My go to nausea remedy is club soda with fresh piece of ginger and a lemon wedge squeezed into it.

pomegranite09 · June 2014

This is what they look like. They basically taste like candy and work wonders for my nausea. I got mine for $4.99 and they come in suckers, too.

lor21ram · June 2014

Start the day with a small breakfast like a banana or some cream of wheat or oat meal and some water. Then finish getting ready or go back to bed if you can. Next eat a little more. Eating every 2 or so hours really helps. Also make sure you get lots of sleep and water. Lemon water also help. I find that room temp water seems to sit the best. Good luck

I hope and pray my nausea goes away in the 2nd Tri. I'm 9 weeks today and I think I've forgotten what it feels like to NOT be nauseous 24/7.

If you saw my purse, you'd think have a toddler because of all the little snacks I have to carry around with me. Eating a small snack every few hours is key!

Jasx130 · June 2014

I ordered the preggie pop drops this morning! I'm excited to try them!

Mrsgclark81 · June 2014

Had my first bout of nausea last night while in the car with hubby. He was terrified that I might upchuck in his car so he pulled over every couple of minutes to be safe. I was able to get rid of the urge to barf and was ok for the rest of the night , but we did stop to get some gingerale.

mylazypony · July 2014

Around 6p it's as if I step onto a boat. Boat docks around 8p then I'm on solid ground til the next day at 6p.

agt104 · July 2014

Gingerale is my best friend

Paleomama · July 2014

I rub peppermint on my tummy. Also diffuse peppermint and lemon. I eat ginger chews and ginger ale. Also a bath with the jets on helps. Sunday morning I had to be to work at 5:00a. All Saturday night I felt so sick. I did this all night, never threw up but only go an hour sleep. Yuck
