nausea and horrible taste

I'm13 weeks with my first child and I'm starting to lose hope that I will ever feel better. I've had to take a huge leave off of work due to my nausea! also, I have this horrible taste in my mouth that I cannot get rid of. the only thing that helps is gum and that's starting to get old. any suggestions or encouraging words?! Thanks in advance!

    If you haven't already, consult with your doctor. :( Sorry you're suffering.

  • I'm sorry you're dealing with those symptoms, they sound unpleasant to say the least.
    I am going to suggest in the future that you post questions or concerns re: pregnancy symptoms to the daily symptom thread.
    Also, I know that several people have posted about foul taste and you can probably find those posts a lot quicker by using the search function, instead of waiting for them to see this thread any maybe reply.
    It helps to reduce the clutter on the board when all the people who want commiseration or ideas for relief stick to that thread.
  • I was having this problem and also got sick of gum/hard candies. I bought some alcohol free mouthwash which has been a good change. Hope you feel better soon!

    Same, this is me on every post. Gum works for me. I'm pretty much sick of it at this point. I've been having the worst pains, no sleep and you go to the doctors and they're like " its normal " I'm 13+4
  • Same same same! I will be 14 weeks tomorrow. I am still constantly nauseous, and am losing hope that it will ever go away. I have missed about 6 weeks of work as well. I have tried every nausea medicine my doctor prescribes, and every nausea remedy known to man. Nothing works. Sending sympathies your way.

    I totally quit my job I couldn't work n I would just doze off. It's sucks to be 3 months and now having to job search
  • I've had very bad sickness so far. I'm 14 weeks pregnant and I'm on two different types of anti sickness tablets to help control it as I'm a cook so the smells of different food makes it worse lol I ended up in hospital a month ago due to being so sick and had to take two weeks off. But I'd suggest going to the doctors and asking about anti sickness tablets as they've really helped me :)
  • Peppermint candy works for me
