Motion sickness and pregnancy

Hi everyone, I'm almost 11 weeks pregnant and I have to fly home from a holiday soon. Getting here I experienced really bad motion sickness. Can anyone recommended any remedies? Most tablets say not to take while pregnant.

Thank you

  • I was recently on a cruise and my motion sickness was moderate.  My doctor was ok with dramamine.  I would consult yours before taking anything though. I didn't take dramamine I took zofran, don't know if you could get a prescription for it though.

    I used seabands and ginger morning sickness drops and they also helped.

  • Last time I was pregnant I got terrible motion sickness and seabands & lemon drops really helped.

  • Dramamine is OK.  You could also try a B6 supplement with Unisom.  I have motion sickness with this one too.  Good luck!
  • Totally sympathize with you... sitting in the car for hours has been miserable.  I spend the rest of the day and next morning feeling extra awful, no matter what I take before the trip or do during.  I travel for work every other week usually, and my inability to travel without really feeling like death made me tell my boss about being pregnant earlier than I would have liked! The first time I cancelled the trip, I claimed the flu, but you can only have the flu so many times. ;)
