first trimester must haves??

Question

what are some things that helped you guys get through your first trimester? i’m nearing my 5th week and i heard that symptoms can really start ramping up in the 6th or 7th week so i just wanna be prepared!
any tips to stay comfortable, and to help soothe symptoms? (especially morning sickness… a bit scared of that one haha.)

Answer

First trimester I didn’t really need anything extra. I had a lot of symptoms like hyperemesis and pain so I did take Epsom salt baths daily and that helps with the symptoms. Some people like ginger chews and ginger tea for nausea but those didn’t really help me. You may not even get nausea though, not everyone does! Now I’m in the second trimester and now I’m needing to have to get some things like a back brace and some looser clothes.

Answer

If you get nauseous, grilled cheese is supposed to help

Answer

My first pregnancy I had no sickness. Pretty easy from start to finish- luckily. Now this second pregnancy has been different. From 5 weeks to 10 weeks I was miserable. Some days better than others and some days I was just watching the clock until I could go to bed. I have to say saltines, Gatorade, pickles and pickle juice literally saved me during those five weeks. Also snacking on small snacks every hour helped ease the sickness. Sleep when you can but also get up and move around. I relaxed when I laid around too much I felt way worse. Don’t be scared to call your doctor too, there’s medicine they can give you for sickness!
