Anti-Sickness Bands
Hey all mum2bes
Really started off today feeling so ill didnt think i could get of bed, surprisingly i wasnt sick but kept gagging. I couldnt handle it anymore so decided to go to get some bands while i was christmas shopping.
They actually work! Hubby thinks its psychological, i dont think so, i can actually think about what i want to eat for dinner without gagging for once. Definately recommend them.
Only problem i got is i havent told work yet so i cant wear them or they will pretty much figure it out, but anyways thought id let ya know they work.

I find eating a dried cracker before I get out of bed really helps xx
I have snacks by my bed too, sometimes i need them other times i am fine. I feel quite sick if i let myself go hungry, so i just keep snacking. Lots of fruit and crackers works, then i eat big meals as well. no wonder i look pregnant already.

I have felt grim today. I have been sipping on peppermint tea and nibbling fruit. Just when you think it has done the trick it comes back! I'm trying the bands!xx
heres to keeping the nausea at bay!
I feel sick 24/7 and this is my second child. I am hardly eating. Only nibbling very little although I am drinking. I am not throwing up either. This feel is the worst ever and I can't until it passes. I had to take off work as I can't even get out of bed for most the day.
im wearing my sea bands first time today and ive been feeling ok today. not sure if thats a coincidence though.
quick question: how long can i wear them? my husband was concerned that if i wore them all the time id get used to them and they would stop working. can this happen?
JVL - with my fisrt 2 I wore them all the time - all day and occasionally at night but did usually take them off at night. I didn't find the affect wear off after time but then my nausea was only mild with the first 2. This time it is not having the deisred affect at all!!
As far as I am aware you can wear the bands all the time. The only thing is that you have to make sure that they are positioned all the time in the right place and I find that they do move a bit.

I wake up every morning about 5am and the nausea wakes me. I eat a bite of a rich tea, it goes. 15 minutes later it's back and so on until I go to bed.
Eating a little bit helps but it's a real chore. I got the bands yesterday and they'll be going on as soon as I get home.
I've got my work Christmas lunch in half an hour and the thought of what i've ordered makes me want to throw up. Luckily my boss knows so can cover for me.
I wonder if i'd feel better if I actually was just sick!!
Not much longer and this should, touch wood, pass! xx
Hope you feel better soon.
