How do you function at work with morning sickness?

Question

I am a elementary school teacher and I’m a FTM. I wake up so nauseous early in the morning before work, and I often throw up before I leave. At work it’s so hard for me to get up from my desk and give my students all of my attention. I’m seriously struggling. Any advice on how I can function at work and to be honest at home as well?!? I’m 6w5d. Thanks!

Answer

Right there with you! I teach 5th grade and battling the all day nausea has been really difficult. I basically chain eat pretzel sticks to try and keep my stomach calm. I’ve definitely been sitting way more than I ever normally do...which drives me crazy! I’m also a FTM and am 10.5 weeks. Hoping the morning sickness leaves soon!

Answer

Not sure where you live and if you have any targets or buy buy babies near you but I got these preggy drop pops and they work pretty well. Not sure how well it’ll work for you but it might be worth a shot. They also make the preggy drop pop plus which has vitamin B6 in it which is supposed to help with morning sickness. You could even just try getting vitamin B6 in general and that might help.

I teach kindergarten. I have a chair up front in case I need to teach sitting down. It gets better! I started sucking on gingins and they help with sickness. I’m currently on break napping on some bean bag chairs lol so it’s still exhausting ❤️

Answer

I talked to my dr and she gave me a prescription for Bonjesta which is essentially unisom (taken once at night) and B6 taken in the am at lunch and dinner time and it worked wonderfully good luck 🍀
