Anyone had any success?

Got some at lunch time, as I feel absolutely dreadful from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to sleep - figured it was worth a try!

Had them on for 3 hours and still feel like a pile of pooh :cry:
 
Sorry you're feeling rubbish. I wear them most of the day and find that they help me generally speaking, but they don't get rid of the nausea entirely. I feel absolute rubbish! But I notice when I am not wearing them I physically feel like I am about to vomit which I don't get once I'm wearing them. I just have a general sicky feeling which is no fun but better than being without the bands :)
 
i only take them off to shower...last night i was feeling OK and took them off then an hour later started feeling crappy again.
 
I have them on currently and have been wearing them for a few days now ever since my MS kicked in. I fly tomorrow early and hope they help then as much as they have the past couple days!
 
i wouldnt say there a cure i think they ake it off a little maybe its phcoislogcal though haha but am wearing them yes xxx
 
I'm not sure - I'm too scared to take them off to see lol. I take them off to shower when I have to and feel gross always vomit after a shower anyway. So I'm not sure. You could try acupuncture?
 
I tried them awhile back when I went deep sea fishing and found out that I get very bad motion sickness. It was pretty choppy out on the water that day. And every time after I would go out on the boat I would wear it, it never worked for me. :(

My dad swore by them though!

What she said...I wear them and still feel blah, but if im not wearing them I feel a million times worse and normally WILL vomit as opposed to feeling like I might lol
 
They definitely work for me, I wish they made some less obvious so people won't notice them and know I'm pregnant!
 
They certainly help you to stop vomiting but the nausea remains there. I was always sick 15 minutes after I took them off.
 
i agree with hope !!! i girl at uni said why you wearing them hm hm i was like shit ! made somebull shit that i had vertigo sickness hahahahaha!!!!!!

they should make them look like real bracelts xx
 
Yeah my hubby got some black ones to help him with sea sickness, but I picked up the pink mumma ones because I thought they were cute. Regretting not getting the black ones because at least they are more subtle when seen under a top.
 
They haven't worked for me sadly despite me desperately wanting them to :haha: I have heard good things from other ladies though!
 
Thanks everyone, I've had them on since about 2pm yesterday, and still feel grotty, but I think slightly better!
 
I've had mine since monday morning, wore them all them all day, and although still nauseated not quite as badly, yesterday I left them off for part of the day and felt dreadful.
Today on since I first woke up and this has really helped, I mean the nausea hasn't gone completely but it is far more manageable, wish I'd have had them with my daughter xx
