Nausea making me not so excited!

[Holldoll]

UGH! I said to my DH last night, I think one kid sounds like a good number! I've been nauseous for 3 days, not throwing up, just that feeling you get right before you throw up, so I'm sure it's coming.

Over the weekend was okay, because I didn't have to do anything, well, today I'm supposed to be working on clients stuff and tomorrow I have to spend all day seeing clients (I work for myself, so there is no taking sick days, I don't work, I don't get paid).

*BLECH*
Any one have any remedies? My DH is going right now to pick me up so Sea Bands and some peppermint oil. Hopefully they help.

ok im not sure if ur meant to use peppermint oil in pregnancy just googled it an seen this:

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
https://www.naturalstandard.com/naturalstandard/images/home/red_bullet.gifPeppermint oil and menthol should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to insufficient information and potential for toxicity.

When DH came home with the bottle the first thing I saw was on the bottle it says DO NOT USE DURING PREGNANCY. great! I wonder if I'm only smelling it and not ingesting it if it would matter. I'm gonna find out, because you are allowed to eat peppermint flavored stuff. I'm going to do some more research before I do it.

The wrist bands seem to be helping slightly. Not completely but I feel a *little* bit better.

I am so there with you. I am nauseous all freaking day long. I do find that keeping food in my stomach helps. So I eat a bit every hour to an hour and a half.

I know that I should be eating, and I really try to, but the thought of food makes me even more nauseous! I am usually one that LOVES food! The only thing I want to eat is soup. I had it for breakfast and now I'm making some more for lunch.

This past week has been horrible for my stomach!!! No matter what I do..eat..not eat...I'm sick!!! I'm in my 10th week.

I'm feeling a lot better today. I'm guessing it's because of the Sea Bands. My DH also brought me home some ginger snaps that might be helping as well.

I used the preggie pop drops to get me through my commute. I did not take make prenatal pills at the time because it made me even worse. I ended up taking folic acid supplements for awhile until the sickness stopped. The smell of lemon helped me get through the work day (on the days I could work, lol)! Hope things get better for you soon.

Anything with ginger!!
Dry crackers
Very cold water
A cool enviornment, I found the heat made things worse for me

 

[Linzi]

Ginger didn't do anything at all for me except make me feel worse! Mint imperials work wonders.

My morning sickness has been returning over the past few days and now it's worse than ever. I find myself trying to sleep all the time just to get past the sickness. I thought my symptoms were going! Part of me wants to be happy because atleast the sickness means its probably okay..
