Hiya, my midwife recommended eating ginger biscuits for travel sickness as i cant take my normal pills. Would think they would work with the morning sickness aswell.
Hope you start to feel better soon. xx
hiya, yeah they are phenergan tablets, i took one yesterday and within 2 hours i was almost asleep! not good when i got others to care for! did help with my hayfever tho! lol. i will just take them when i REALLY need them cos i dont actually like taking meds and avoid it if i can! how is everyone?? xxx
It really is awful to feel like that. I've been off work for 2 weeks withthe same thing and Im goin back on Monday :(
Im 10+3 n startin to feel better now thank God! I ate othing but junk for 2 weeks cause I just couldnt cope with 'normal' food. Travel sickness bands didnt work, My Doc gave me phenergan tablets but I freaked myself out reading the info leaflet that was with them and it put me off takin them so Iv just sort of got on with it but they are supposed to help and they're totally safe it was just the bit about them bein used as mild sedative that scared me cause iv been exhausted enough as it is n iv got my lil girl to look after. Oh the joys of pregnancy! xx
hi thanx for the advice girls, i saw my gp today for a check up and mentioned the sickness and he gave me some tablets to take to help stop it. my gp is sooo lovely! lol hope you are all well xxxxx
How are you feeling now? Are the Phenegran? That's what i've been put on, but have to take 2 to get any effect from them!!

oh bless ya! get sum travel sickness bands that u pop rnd ur wrists! they tend 2 help! i also found as gross as it sounds 2 eat either sum toast or digestive biscuits in the morn! it will pass soon hang in there! my sis puked 24/7 literally! was pretty bad but the sickness bands do help! xxxx
Try getting travel sickness bands (from boots or on-line) there's pressure points somewhere on your wrists and the bands put the right amount of pressure on your wrists and makes the sickness a lot better (sounds mad i know) but i felt like you and i would of done anything to stop that feeling.
Acupuncture is suppose to be really good (but i only found this out once my sickness had got better) go on-line and read up on it
AND! Trebor Extra Hot peppermints, they settle your belly, and get that yuck taste out your mouth!.
But the main thing is try and eat little but often, even if its dry toast it does make you feel a bit better.......sometimes.
Hope this is a little bit useful to you. Take Care & GOOD LUCK!!!

hey, i had severe morning sickness during the most of my pregnancy (weeks 8-20). I had to be signed off work for one month because i kept being sick in my waste paper bin in the office! I couldn't face eating anything 1st thing in the morning but made sure i drank plenty - to keep hydrated if you're being sick so often.
Ginger nuts didn't make a blind bit of difference, travel sickness bands only work psychologically. The best thing i used which seemed to help was lemon and lime shower gel. A nice warm shower and lashings of lemon and lime shower gel calmed me down nicely (don't eat it though)! The one i used was from the body shop but i don't think they sell it anymore so you may have to go hunting! Good luck and I hope it passes soon. Take care
hi huni how r u doing?? have u tried ginger biscutes first thing even b4 getting outa bed , the only thing that helped me wiv this pregnancy was wen i first got up i'd end up being sick 4-5 times more somedays but as soon as i cud face it i'd have a cup of black coffee (i know u aint really meant to but it was just 1 a day!!) used to work some days not everytime though hope u find something to help soon it's horrible especially wen u have other kids to get up n out. xxx
