Just a quick question. Does anyone know if chamomile tea is safe during pregnancy? I used it for upset stomach in the past and I'm thinking that maybe it would help this nausea and throwing up. But I know that when your pregnant you need to be careful about herbal stuff. Last pregnancy i took zofran, which is of course now linked to defects in babies and it gave me awful constipation, and I also took Diclegis which is taking the edge off but I'm still feeling so sick. It's awful =[
Re: chamomile Tea
Ask your doctor about safe natural remedies. My personal favorites are coke (I hate it usually), saltine crackers, and anything with real ginger.
And I'm with @sorarose ginger ale is my best friend right now. It helps with gassiness too (is that even a word?)
It really is so effective for nausea, not just during pregnancy. I've seen it at whole foods and wegmans. Hopefully there's one near everyone, highly recommend it.
I've read mix things about chamomile - best to just ask your doctor but for lots of things (except things we know we shouldn't have at all) I think anything moderation is fine.
For me in terms of nausea though.... saltines... all day errrry day.

Conclusion that chamomile should be safe in normal amounts.
ETA: here's one for zofran and pregnancy as well if anyone wants it https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3470505/
