Nausea/Vomiting is Back at 19w

Hey ladies! Anyone else's nausea/vomiting come back? I'm 19w4d and mine started up again last weekend and it sucks :( tricks that worked for me early on aren't working this time! What works for you?

  • Sickness tables been taken them sick the start as could not keep anything down

  • When does your sickness happen and is it different now?  In the beginning for me, it was typical morning sickness.  Now, it's acid reflux and heartburn.  A hormone called relaxin relaxes your muscles including those in your esophagus and you are more likely to throw up.  Combine that with the fact your stomach is squished up into a much tinier space and can't expand as much as normal and you've got a recipe for throwing up. 

    I would try some antacid tablets, smaller more frequent meals, less greasy or spicy food, and sitting or standing for at least an hour or so after eating.  There are also a ton of threads about ways to stop heartburn/acid reflux/nausea that could be very helpful to you.  You can find those easily by using the search function.

  • My nausea came back as well, it just started again last week at 19 weeks! I don't know know what triggered it and it also is mixed with heartburn at other times. Not fun! I'm just trying to deal with it :(
  • It's been happening in the middle of the night - early in this pregnancy it was just a constant all day nauseous feeling but now I can't seem to figure out what triggers it since I'm sleeping and don't eat right before bed - maybe I'll try that...a little dry snack before bed (crackers, dry cereal)

    You may want to try sleeping propped up on more pillows.  By 9 months with my first I was sleeping on the couch every night because I couldn't lay down without my throat burning with acid or vomiting.

    I've had morning sickness several times a week from 14w until now at 19w. Still going pretty strong :(
    I try to drink lots of water and bland foods. It absolutely sucks. I hope everyone feels better soon!!
  • Mine is similar to vexymommy that now it's more acid stomach/ squished stomach related and it comes at night. When I feel it coming on I take a tums (sometimes in the middle of the night) and it typically calms it enough to pass. It doesn't feel like normal heartburn so I wouldn't have thought of tums to help until my cousin suggested it. They've definite saved me from a few vomit episodes!

    Mine comes back if I don't get something in my stomach right away (which sucks, because I'm not supposed to eat for at least half an hour - ideally a full hour - with the thyroid meds I've been put on).
  • This week I have gotten sick twice but I wasn't queasy, just couldn't stop gag/coughing and threw up my breakfast. Besides that my energy has been great and my symptoms minimal. I sure hope the first trimester uglies don't come back, I had a terrible first trimester. I hope you feel better soon.

  • I'm 18w1d today, and thought I was past it. Then I got sick. Lovely
    Baby number 1 on the way!

  • I had an extremely stressful day yesterday and felt horribly nauseated but I think it was more of a stomach acid issue. Definitely lots of heartburn lately.

    I agree with all PPs, but sometimes i also think that i get nauseous/sick to stomach because the baby is moving around and affecting my stomach, especially when i get ill during a meal. I've told him to stop moving around so that i can eat before!

    I too haven't stopped getting sick since the beginning, but feel I can predict my triggers better.
    I agree with the stress though, if I'm really emotional or stressed out i feel sick. I've always handled my emotions through my gut.
    But surprisingly, I've been a heck of a lot less anxious since pregnant!! I stopped taking meds when we were trying, and haven't had any issues.

    I just need to get this car sick thing under control now!

    Unfortunately my sickness hasn't 100% gone away....it has gotten better for sure...I was diagnosed with HG early on around 6 weeks it was AWFUL! Thankfully now at 20 weeks 4 days the sickness is maybe once a day or every other day...but on those sick days boy oh boy is it a complete drag :( 
    I'm still having morning sickness a few times a week(which I usually feel nauseous) and then sometimes it switches to night when I completely loose my dinner! During those times, there is no nauseous warning, it just happens!  I've just kinda come to terms that I have no control over it and this may continue to be my reality until my baby boy comes. 
  • I'm bumping this thread, because this is where I'm at right now. 20w5d, and while my nausea has completely subsided, I am still vomiting. Sometimes I may go over a week, and sometimes it's every other day. Nothing specific seems to trigger it, I'll just be perfectly fine and then--BAM! Pukey Pukington. Ugh. Luckily, after it comes up, I'm perfectly fine again.

  • Glad this was brought back to life. 24 weeks tomorrow and I've been nauseous the last 3 days :-?

    This is me. I don't have any nausea, but when I wake up in the morning I have coughing fits that trigger my gag reflex and it's game over for 10 minutes. But aside from that - I don't have any other symptoms for the rest of the day. My doctor said that acid reflux can cause the coughing/puking, even if it doesn't feel like you have heartburn or anything.
  • The past week or so, I've been experiencing heartburn for the first time in my life. This is awful! I can't imagine it gets any better from this point forward either (23w today).
  • I'm 23 & 5 and I take a unisom and a b6 tablet every night before bed. It makes me feel great the entire next day and I highly recommend it!!!! Seriously!!!
    Those are the 2 active ingredients in diclegis- but you don't need a prescription :)
  • I was exactly the same - sickness came back at 19 weeks! It only lasted a couple more weeks though and was very sporadic. Almost 22 weeks now and aside from a little occasional nausea, it's all gone.
  • I'm 24+4 & I've been more nauseous than usual, but it's because there's just no ROOM for anything anymore. I'm battling the constant need to stuff my face with a squished stomach, and it's basically lose-lose. Lol.
