Am I the only one?

Question

I just want to start by saying I am NOT suicidal. However, my 24/7 unrelenting morning sickness makes me think at moments I wish I was dead. I’m almost 19 weeks and I haven’t gained any weight yet. I’m negative 5lbs from my start weight. I’m not looking for help to treat the nausea and vomiting because I have tried everything (including 2 different prescriptions and spending $180 on the Relief Band). Nothing helps. It’s difficult to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Tell me I’m not the only one who has thought this.

Answer

I can totally relate to this. My nausea is easing up now but when you are already drained emotionally and physically from vomiting all day, you just want it to stop!! While I know everyone says “oh in the end it’s so worth it” and I know it will be, it seemed to just annoy me. I was prescribed 2 diff meds and also bought the sea bands, did the light snacking they suggest, even went to the ER for a IV drip and some meds. I am not very emotional but the constant puking would break me down with feeling like I wasn’t even able to feel excited about baby or do anything because the only thing I could feel was the urge to puke... And that made me feel like a horrible person. Just know that your feelings are valid, you’re going through a very difficult thing right now and that you can get through it, even when it feels like you are seriously going to die. I’m 14 weeks and still have puking and bad days. I hope you find relief soon.

So my first pregnancy I puked all the time until I gave birth and lost weight most of the time. I started to just eat cereal because it was easy to throw up. It was awful but I tried my best to stay positive.

Answer

I deal with nausea 24/7, even when I wasn’t pregnant. I found drinking Chamomile or Peppermint Tea each day, or chewing gum (Mint flavoured) really helped calm it, or at least give a little bit of a relief. Papaya Enzymes also have helped provide some temporary relief. If you can lie down- and take a nap. That helps a little bit as well. I really really hope you feel better 😌 
Oh, and remember - “it will all be worth it when you hold your babe in your arms”
