Tips for morning sickness???!! TMI

Question

I am exactly 6 weeks pregnant today and the morning sickness is horrible! There's not a moment of the day that I feel even half decent. I wake up around 5 am and it starts with horrible diarrhea. Tmi-complete liquid. I've had to change my pants a couple times 😳 I was so embarrassed but I told my fiance anyways and he was like "I was to embarrassed to mention it but I crapped my pants yesterday too. Thought I just had to fart. Does that make you feel better?" Lol he's great. But anyways, after the diarrhea comes the vomiting. Multiple episodes of it until I'm dry heaving. It even comes out my nose. And for the rest of the day I'm super nauseous. Any tips or remedies for really really bad morning sickness? I don't think I ever want to get pregnant again after this baby comes 😩

Answer

I had extreme morning sickness until 21 weeks and nothing really worked. I just tried doing things that i thought would make the experience a little less awful since i couldnt stop the vomitting. Like drinking flavored water and being mindful of what is easy coming back up. It makes throwing up more pleasant. Also lying down with my lovely "puke bucket" next to me as i called it lol so that i didnt have to worry about not making it to the bathroom in time. As far as foods go it was literally a game of every couple of days trying to find foods i could tolerate. I ended up losing 15 pounds through it all 😛 it was rough. Important thing is to keep hydrated. If u cant keep water down go to the clinic for an iv drip. I was perscribed anti nausea meds as well when i got an iv and they never worked for me but they could work for u. Srry so long! Good luck!

Answer

My gosh, you sound like how I was.  It was miserable.  I couldn't take any medicine for sickness and nothing stayed down.  I threw up everything.  I lost 10 lbs (I'm 23 weeks now and I still haven't gained it back) I had all day sickness, nausea and vomiting.  At 12 weeks my Dr told me to try taking Unisom(25mg) and B6 (50mg) everyday and wear Seabands (the motion sickness bracelets). I still threw up everyday, not quite as much though.  The nausea and the all day queasiness was fine though.  (For me being nauseous all day was worse than the vomiting) I stopped taking the Unisom and B6 at about 17 weeks and stopped wearing the Seabands at week 20. I still occasionally may throw up (one or twice a week) but I feel so much better.

Answer

I wish I could suggest something to help. I had really bad hypermesis and the doctors prescribed me several different pills but none worked. If I ate something that helped, 2/3 days later it would start making me feel sick again. Unfortunately I just had to deal with it. There wasn't much I could do about it. I just had to deal with it. Other women have said dry biscuits and ginger helped a lot, maybe you should try those. Hope you feel better soon xoxo

Answer

Pregnancy pops... Saltine crackers and ginger ale on your night stand... Motion sickness bracelets... Ice pack and fan at your bed side. Those all helped me out a lot. Also ask your doctor.

Answer

I have some remedies, but they might not help as much as getting stomach meds from your doctor. They make them safe for pregnancy.

For me, eating a quick bite of something and going back to sleep stopped the throw up feeling.

Ginger drops might help with the diarrhea.

Sea band bracelets helped with that constant feeling of motion sickness.
