I'm 6 weeks and 3 days. I wasn't quite sure what morning sickness would be like.. Before today I felt really sick when I was hungry, but today i've just had this lump in my throat and feeling like i'm gonna throw up any minute
I've been nauseous for a week now. I'm 6w5d. I also get feelings of having to faint. It's been brutal and I haven't found remedies yet. I know water first thing in the morning isn't the best so I've been sipping on sugared sodas. I'm afraid to get dehydrated though! I never imagined me getting this sick because I usually have a stomach of steel! Any remedies that worked for other would be amazing. My sickness is constant throughout the day and is cutting into my productivity at work too!
I usually am able to help keeping mine at bay by eating protien snacks---cheese and cracker, hummus, yogurt, hard boiled egg, almonds or cashews, trail mix etc. that seems to really help. When my stomach is empty is when I feel the worst. So I try to keep something in my stomach at all times.
I've been nausious from w6 to w8. The past 2 days its been alot less frequent. Going away i hope! What helped me was essential oil - ginger rubbed on my stomach!
@allisonn1000 What's wrong with water in the morning? Is it just harder to keep down? I am SO thirsty every morning so that's the first thing I grab (sipping slowly to keep the nausea at bay).
OP, everyone is different, but the best remedy for me so far is making sure I never get too hungry. Small snacks throughout the day (large meals make things worse) seem to keep my energy up and my nausea low(ish).
I'm nauseous all of the time, but only throw up if I drink wAter. I'm worried about being dehydrated!
Tips from last pregnancy I got when i was such a lot ! Don't lay down after you eat. Sip water don't drink a lot at once. Don't drink any liquids when you eat.
When does the nausea end? I feel awful every hour of the day. I tried sea bands, ginger gum, B6, ugh!! I am going on vacation soon w/ DH and I don't want it ruined.

I'm the same way. Hoping it subsides a little before I go on vaca too or it's going to be no fun
I've been eating Preggie Drops. It's helps with the nausea at least while you are eating them. Which is better than nothing. After its gone the nausea comes back though. I got them at Babies R Us.
I thought my nausea was ending yesterday 8w 6d but nope 9w came with a vengeance . We are going to the beach next week and Im praying it lets up by then or gives me a 7 day break.
Strong ginger chews actually do help me somewhat if I eat several over a couple of hours. So does fresh air and exercise, although it only helps in the moment and nausea returns once I'm settled again. As PPs have noted, if I eat too much or too little I'm screwed. Some days nothing at all helps though. I did get lucky when my nausea went away at every special event I've had recently so I was thinking mayyybe it could be helped psychologically... But I don't *really* believe that.

I don't know if it's just a coincidence but I went for acupuncture to treat my constant battle with nausea yesterday. I left thinking it hadn't done anything but today I've actually had an appetite and only puked twice in the morning ( usually my symptoms last morning till night)
@techytexmom I read somewhere that water helped increase gag reflexes in the morning but I've been drinking it now anyway. There doesn't seem to be a solution for me right now. I'm going to see if my doctor can prescribe me something. I had to leave work early yesterday because I kept throwing up at work. I hope this sickness is soon over.
I feel worse in the evening than the morning?? Morning I feel ok, get through most of the day at work, then it hits me around 2pm and doesn't stop until I sleep!! Anyone else experience this??
I'm nauseous beyond belief and also have a stomach of steel so never thought I'd experience this. I have been sick since week 6 and I'm currently 8w 4d. I've missed so much work. I'm going to have to tell my co-workers this week since they keep asking me if I'm okay. The doctors say it peaks at week 9 and then subsides through week 14 so hang in there, ladies. This is all very normal...so I'm told.
I'm 6w today and I've been nauseous all day for 5 days now. I sip sprite when I can't do water and drink as much water as I can when that feels possible. I'm sucking on lemon drop candies a lot and that helps. Also, just taking it easy and trying to eat frequently seems to help a little. Even if you're not feeling the best on your vacation just try to enjoy the down time and the time with your DH! Best of luck!
@Naomi777 totally normal, MS isnt just in the morning with my DS I would feel bad all day and only be sick in the evening. This time it has no rhyme or reason all different times of day it comes/goes.
I've been eating small meals throughout the day and it does help, but I get sooo hungry and really want a meal and the thought of it sounds good but then when its put infront of me I have to push it away
With my first son I was sick from 9w till 11w. With this pregnancy I started to become sick at 6w now I'm 7w 2d I'm hoping this ease up a bit. I lost 20 lbs with my first son I refuse to lose and more weight then I have already lost 5lbs. Mints seems to help me a little bit
@BabyHope2013, agreed! Eating something with protein every 2 hours has made a world of difference for me. I've been craving mostly carbs and was very nauseous. But after having a little hypoglycemic event (scary), I started upping my protein and eating snacks often. I feel so much better. I really recommend trying it. I've been eating hard boiled eggs, string cheese, yogurt, cottage cheese, nuts and peanut butter and apple or rice cakes for snacks.

I've been such a struggle for the past week. The start of week 6, each day got worse and worse. I couldn't keep anything down so my doctor prescribed me Diclegis. It's b vitamins and an antihistamine so nothing too harsh! I'm still struggling in the morning, but the afternoons have been getting better! This is my 4th day on it and I feel the best I have in a while. Going on vacation for 2 weeks starting tomorrow so I'm happy to feel some relief and enjoy the pregnancy more! Hope this helps ❤️
I have been incredibly nauseous the whole time too and I am as far along as you. 6 weeks and 3 days. I try to munch on stuff.. Even if it is little crackers or bread.. Mashed potatoes have helped me a lot. They help me feel full faster.. Like I actually was able to eat something. Dairy products are supposed to calm the acids in your stomach a little bit too. My doctor told me ginger ale works for a lot of people. My mom swears by pretzels and sprite. If I eat something before I get out of bed in the morning I usually have more of an appetite the rest of the day and I don't get sick as much... Another thing that has helped me is lemon ginger tea. I am usually a coffee drinker but I've stopped, so now I have this decaf lemon ginger hot tea. The warmth helps calm that little lump in your throat. Hang in there!
I had no idea what to expect from morning sickness. I have been nauseous and throwing up since 6wk2d. I'm 7wk3d. Ginger oil helps me, I put 10-15 drops in water w lemon, also you can put it in smoothies and juice. Fruit has been a big feature on my diet lately and I know my prenatal vitamin is causing a lot of my nausea, Trying to locate a gentle kind. Congratulations, Good luck!

I have still lost weight and still have food aversions, but I was miserable before Unisom.
