Natural nausea remedies... What works for you?

Question

I am 10 weeks 2 days and have been nauseas since 5 weeks. It lasts pretty much all day with a few times of relief throughout. Today just feels like a day that I can't handle it. Can anyone share what natural remedies or practices have worked for you? So far deep breathing helps me get through the bad bouts. Trying to have small, healthy meals, as I've noticed large meals and anything very sugary makes it worse. Also, I'm sleeping an outrageous amount... What has helped you manage?

Answer

Trader Joe's makes tiny cookies called Triple Ginger Snaps and they saved me. Just one or two instead of crackers gave me enough time to get a meal together. Pellegrino also helped me a lot. Check if your vitamin has B-6. Some docs prescribe it for bad morning sickness.

Answer

Vitamin B6 at 100mg per day. I've taken it for years to help with that sadness during PMS. I've taken all through my pregnancy and have only felt nauseous less than a handful of times. I later came across what the active "drug" is in the anti nausea medication that some get prescribed. It's vitamin B6:).

Answer

The small meals are wise- it's low blood sugar that makes us throw up. Little healthy snacks and avoiding empty carbs is very helpful in particular.
Magnesium supplements (powdered) helped with a lot of my nausea too - especially the overall sour feeling that I had, but also just relieved a ton of the nausea.

Answer

These really helped me! My nausea was not horrible but enough to be bothersome and these did the trick.

Answer

Peppermint essential oil

Answer

Mineral Water infused with lime and ginger with a lime squeezed in just before drinking

Answer

Magnesium. I take natural calm every night. Also snacking on almonds. I had nausea with my last pregnancy but didn't know about magniseum. Now I swear it's making me feel normal.

Answer

I wore sea-bands till I was about 4 months. Worked pretty well. Peppermint tea helped too.

Answer

Thanks so much everyone for the great advice! I'm going to try out the ones I can. I live on a farm in rural Costa Rica, so some things aren't available but luckily there are lots of great fruits and herbs easily available. I'm so glad to hear what has worked for everyone else. You are all such wonderful supports. Here's to happy, healthy pregnancies! Xo

Answer

Preggie pops worked for me and they are all natural, also mint works well. Eatting small meals helps, eatting bigger meals made me barf EVERY time.
