Nvm zofran sucks!

As I sit here with horrible gas pains, bloating, and constipation. I ask myself which is worse? Feeling nauseous or feeling like my lower stomach and ass are going to explode (yea tmi) and then nothing and I mean nothing comes out! Grr.. Looks like it was too good to be true for me.

  • My OB put me on Diclegis this time, and it seems to be working pretty well for me. I was put on Zofran my other two pregnancies, and it didn't really work well for me.

  • Colace (100mg) 2 times a day. Miralax as needed. I will take this over puking multiple times a day. The Zofran is the only reason I am finally able to maintain weight and keep what little food I eat down. Good luck.

    Yup. DS is Tommy Pickles! Nothing like living with an escape artist.
    Just another cloth diapering, baby wearing mama.

    I had the same experience with Zofran, the constipation is not worth it. It took me about a week to feel normal when I stopped taking it. Drink a cup of prune juice everyday and it will help get your system regular again.
  • Thanks! Yea the gas pains for me are much more uncomfortable than the nausea I was experiencing. I guess it's a trade off. And only a few more weeks of it hopefully!!

  • I hate zofran for that reason. I have Ménière's and take it only when it's really bad and I won't be able to shit for 2 days and that's when I'm not pregnant. Pregnancy constipates you anyway so I do everything possible to not take it. I took the b6/unisom combo and it helped me last time.
    Fucking bump!!!!
  • That happened to me.  I didn't poop for a week and then the colace took 72 hours to kick in.
