Age old question: How can I stop Morning Sickness!?
Thought I would be lucky this time and not have sickness. I'm 7 weeks gone - with the first one I was sick straight away at 4 weeks, so thought I got away with it this time!
When I felt really ill I used to have a luck warm bath to take my mind of the yucky feeling. I try to eat little and often, but most times the thought of food makes me feel worse - as does the smell - EWWW!
Does anyone have any suggestions they swear by, looked on sites and they suggest ginger, eating little and ofter etc, but would like to hear of some REAL tried and tested techniques from you lovely mums and mums to be )
Thanks, Karys xxx

Thanks lucyp, I'm going to look those up! Sounds great and I'll also try the bands Sukina.
It's ok if you manage to throw up because then you get some relief from it for a while, but if you're not sick then it is constant nausea!
Anything to stop this, it's a real blag on my life at the moment! I'm due on 19th June 2008. Sounds like such a long way off - but it's going to be here before you know it!! Take care, thanks for the advice - keep in touch! xxx
you are dew 2days after my daughters 4th bday.
i also sufferd from constant nausia and the best thing for me was having a bag of mint imperials, they always stopped me feeling sick for at least 45mins-1 hour.
hope it eases soon hun xx

I have also heard about anti sickness bracelets you can get from boots but as I live abroad it isn't something I have tried. May be worth a look though!
Good luck! xx
Tips that worked for me:
1. Eating dry food like toast and crisps.
2. Eating as soon as I got up, BEFORE I had anything to drink as if I drank first I was sick. Weird eh?
3. Eating really plain food like beans on toast, staying away from smells especially fried food - yuck!
4. Plain mints like mint imperials helped.
5. Eating little and often.
6. Plain fizzy drinks like lemonade.
7. Being active cos the more u lie down and think about how bad u feel the worse u will feel!
I agree Tiger Lily - anything fried definitely sets me off - I eat plain cream crackers in the morning before drinking.
I went out and the cool fresh air felt great.
Hi Click! I know what you mean...the best thing to do is try to explore the different ways to try and combat the sickness, look at the suggestions given by these lovely ladies. The sickness bands really worked for me. They are staying on 24hours a day!!!!!!
You are NOT being a wuss and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Being preggers takes a LOT out of you. You feel tired, sick, dizzy and if no one is in the same situation as you, they simply will not understand. Just take it easy and talk to your boss about it so concessions can be made for you. Like more regular breaks etc. You deserve it.
Has anyone else tried that yet?
It's hard because the foods I loved for treats like fish and chips I can't stand anymore. Nothing gets my taste buds going!
