vomiting. protein shakes?

Question

I'm 8 weeks 2 days. I can't eat anything and I'm at the point of where I'm just throwing yellow stuff. Do you think a protein shake would be okay to drink? To get something nutritional in my stomach? I'm dying. Please help.

Answer

I had terrible morning sickness just like this. Protein shakes make it 9 times worse! I ended up having to freeze Gatorade to make Gatorade pops and I kept crackers by my bed and before I even moved in the morning I nibbled on a cracker while laying down and when the nausea eased up and I could move I made dry toast and nibbled on that until I wasn't nauseated as much. And if I got nauseated throughout the day I ate a Gatorade pop to keep hydrated and kept crackers with me at all times. Plain anything is the best it worked wonders with me and I was in the hospital 4 times for dehydration because of my morning sickness. Sometimes I even made planes grilled chicken with no seasoning and it worked too so you might try a bland diet. Or you can try the protein shake if you want but I know it made me worse

Answer

Protein shakes are some of the few things I can actually stomach. I make sure to add 2 cups of spinach in it to help with veggie intake in case I can't get veggies in the rest of the day. I drink a chocolate one and though it's not as appetizing as it was not being pregnant, I can still drink. But I also drink it with a piece of Ezekiel toast and some almond butter and I take bites between sips. That has been helpful because it continues to settle my stomach while I get some nutrition in.

Answer

I had the best luck with comfort foods from when I was a kid. Pasta with olive oil, cereal, watermelon and goldfish crackers. Not very nutritionally varied lol but in those really sick weeks getting your stomach to settle is the main goal.

Answer

Protein shakes made me puke while trying to sip it
