Morning Sickness

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.

I remember those days all too well. What I found really helped was eating something just before going to bed, and if I woke up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, eat something then, too. I found I ONLY got sick when my stomach was completely empty. And many times it meant eating when that was the LAST thing I felt like doing. Bleccch!! But then after eating something, the nausea would magically disappear. Also, stay hydrated!! Especially after puking, try and drink something even if it is just a sip at a time.

One more suggestion: try different kinds of crackers. I, too, hated saltines, but found that goldfish really worked. Also, milk (surprisingly) would settle my stomach if it was just a little bit upset. Soft rolls really worked well, too. If something sounds good, then go for it, and once you find something that "works" stick with it.

Also, for me, 90% of the nausea/vomitting was done with by the time I hit 10-11 weeks, so hang in there. All of a sudden you turn around and realize, hey I don't feel so bad today!!!

I know how miserable you must feel, mine was really bad, i had to quit my job, but honestly i would not get anything from the doctor,unless absolutely necessary, only my opinion, but i just would not like to take the risk for my unborn child,you never know what things can do,it is a hard road to travel, as the saying goes, and it is just awful, but it usually does pass ,until then you have my sympathy,as been there ,done that.
