Morning Sickness!!!!

Hey everyone! I don't know what to
do....I am 9 weeks and 2 days and I can
not stop throwing up! I spoke with my Dr.
Who laughed and said that's one of the
many joys of expecting!!! Well, this is
my first child and I was not expecting
this! I knew I would be a little sick but
no where near to what i'm feeling now!
I'v tried ginger snaps, ginger ale, ginger
tea, saltines, chicken broth...You name it
i'v tried it and it just keeps coming back
up! Last night I was in bed and suddenly
had to vomit...I wasn't even able to make
to the bathroom and wound up throwing up
on the floor....Thank god we have
hardwood! My hubby was very sweet and
cleaned it up for me while I was in the
shower, but he must think I am insane b/c
all I could do was cry and cry. He sat in
the bathroom telling me "its ok sweety i'm
gonna be cleaning up a lot of messes
soon".....And all I could manage to say
between sobs was "i'm sick!!!!" my morning
sickness also seems to hit me at night
when I am trying to get some much needed
sleep, so lately I have been grumpy and
exhausted all day long. My mother seems
to think that i'm exaggerating b/c "she
was never that sick when she had
us"........Well good for her!!! I'm sorry
to be such a complainer but I am so ready
to feel better......When will relief
come???? I will be so thankful for any
suggestion that yall can give!!!!

See if your doc will prescribe diclectin
for you. That's what I wa son at the
begining cause I was super sick too.
Also carry life savers. I'm sure a
pregnant woman invented their name.

It sounds so simular to what I went when I
first got pregnant what a messed up time.
U are not a happy camper i'm pregnant with
my second child not nearly as bad.The
first time I threw up everthing u listed
even water.Really all I can say is this to
shall pass in when it does u will eat
everthing in bird eyes view.I'm 6wks
pregnant now in i'm having the same
nausea. All I can say is find things that
are solid not easy to barf up.Eat slow and
small portions. But ur pregnancy is like
mine u will stop barffing soon
good
luck to you and god bless
and
congrats on ur beautiful baby

Also, if you started taking prenatals
already, they could cause nausea. You
could try taking a different kind.

Thanks for the quick replies....I'll talk
to my doc and see if maybe the prenatals
are playing a factor. I can not wait
untill this is over....I know my hubby
will be glad too. Poor man probably feels
like he's married to a vomit machine with
multiple personalities. I actually just
snapped at him for eating mcdonalds b/c
the smell bothered me......Then I cried
and said I want mc donalds too but i'll
throw up!!!! Oh the joys of pregnancy!!!!

I Feel Your Pain

I know what you are going through. I went
throught that for seven months with my
pregnancy. I hated it and was in to see
my ob/gyn once a week. He felt for me
too. I would go in every monday to be
hydrated in the er. Then see him on wed.
To make sure all was well. I was admitted
to the hospital for five weeks to be
hydrated and fed via iv. I hated
everything about it. We tried every
prescription medicince we could and still
the I was sick. About my seventh month
things started to look up and I was on a
medication used for chemo patient with
severe nausea...But I also delivered that
same month...Go figure. Good luck and god
bless the rest of your journey.
Ps I became so depressed over the
"starvation" and constant sickness that my
ob/gyn put me on an antidepressant at
about 4 months.

Oh grace that's aweful! I can not even
begin to imagine having to deal with that
for so long. Thankfully today has been a
good day...I haven't been as sick but
unfortunately it seems to kick in the most
at night time. They really should change
the name to "all day long especially when
you smell something sickness".

I got this dreadful nausea too, I think I
got it because I had twins though, because
I was told the hormonne levels are higher
with twins, so maybe your in for a
suprise! Who knows!
The doctor can prescribe lots of
anti-nausea medicines that worked for me
such as cyclazine and metoclopramide and
they can give you them in an injection.
I was told that ginger can help with the
nausea and that an old sailor trick for
sea- sickness was to tie an elastic band
around your wrist as theres a pressure
point there. None of this worked for me
but if it works for anyone else then
great.
All the best.

Usually morning sickness disappears around
12 - 15 weeks, but with my first pregnancy
I had all day sickness for the entire 9
months. Then with my next 2 babies, I
didn't vomit 1 time. Go figure. I am
currently preg with baby #4 & I have
not had any sickness thus far (i'm due
7-27-06). Every woman is different, &
every pregnancy is different. I sure hope
relief comes for you:)!! Wish I could
make it go away!

1)saltines first thing in the morning
2)peppermint
3)spearmint
4)licorice--black
5)preggy pops
6)gingerale
7)most hard candies actually--gum, chew
gum
8)try not to be empty ever--eat often,
little at a time.
9)snack often
10)empty stomach mixed with hormones
causes great morning sickness.
11)try childrens vitamins with dr
approval, prenatal especially in the am
causes morning sickness
12)coffee is bad for morning sickness,
also tea in the am is bad(actually they
say dont do coffe or tea, caffeine bad)

Thanks so much for all the suggestions!
For some odd reason I did not feel sick
all day yesterday, but I was thinking that
it would catch up with me last
night.......It never did! I got a
wonderful night's sleep and woke up this
morning feeling good and rested. So far I
haven't had any problems today, even when
I walked past someone who was smoking,
which made me sick a few days ago. It's
funny how certain things that never
bothered you before suddenly become so
revolting. I never particularly enjoyed
being around smoke, but I was never
sickened by it untill recently. I
certainly hope that I can continue feeling
good, but should I be concerned or just
consider my self lucky?

I would concider it luck!!! And I hope
mine does not get any worse - I just get
queezy not sick, but I was in the bathroom
most of my preg. With my son. People
would laugh at me, because in public I
would actually have to back into a stall -
if I even saw the toilet, I would get sick
(really lol!!!) pepermint seemed to help
a little - the little red and white ones
you usally get at resturaunts.
Good luck!!

(sorry for the spelling, I prob. Should
stop typing that, but I do feel bad that
i'm 28 and can't spell better than my
7year old)
