Morning Sickness

Ginger ale and saltines - ginger is known to help settle tummies.

That's exactly what I was going to say. I also tried having the crackers and ginger ale before getting up(you have to have someone bring it to you unless you have it beside the bed somehow). It seemed to make me less likely to get queasy when I finally got up. I really wish you the best and hope you don't have it too long

Phone a good health food store...there is a B vitamin - B6??? - that is REALLY supposed to help morning sickness!

HUGS and I hope you are better soon!

I didn't really have morning sickness, I just didn't feel good unless I had little meals all day. Sort of grazed all day.

HMMMM B6? Maybe I should drink some gatorade, that has a lot of the B vitamins in it. ginger Ale seems to be helping a little. It makes me burp more than throw up so that's good lol. I have been trying the saltines but I just can't stomach them. I am sick as soon as I open my eyes in the morning, I have to run to the bathroom immediately.

Come OOOOOOOOON 3 months LOL.

I've found that it varied with me. Saltines would help for awhile, then ginger ale, then peanut butter crackers, then Coca-cola (Caffeine free works just as well.). Werther's Originals candies helped sometimes, too. Thankfully mine was truly "morning" sickness most days, so I could eat fine the rest of the day. I'm in my 15th week now, and it has just now gone away (I think--yesterday was the first day I've felt really good, and today is okay for the moment.)

Also, your doctor should be able to prescribe something for you if it is bad enough. Mine was never quite that bad, but a good friend of mine had to go on medication, as she could barely function without it.

I think that's a good idea. Throwing up that often can't be good for you.
When I was taking chemo treatments, my Dr. gave me a RX for the nausea.
It really helped. Good luck with this.
