Anyone....i Could Used Some Advice Posted: 01-29-04 09:50am
I am 9 weeks pregnant and having some
serious nausea. I went to the doctors
and she told me to eat starchy foods to
help it. Well how am I supposed to get
any nutrients if all I can eat is dry
toast? I mean I can't eat or drink
anything with out wanting to crawl into
bed and ball up. I can't drink juices,
eat fruit, just toast and water. Can
anyone tell me some other foods that might
help me?

As long as u take ur vitamins faithully
and eat all the toast that u can u should
b okay at first..Thats more than some
women can hold down and keep ur body
hydrated with lots of water! Talk to your
doctor about a vitamin supplement other
than prenatals

What about peanut butter and crackers? I
heard a lot of women say that's all they
could hold down. It's got protein plus it
tastes good. I'm not sure what you could
hold down but what about waffles with
blueberries or something without syrup.
You should definately try the crackers
though. Now i'm hungry!

Have you tried like gatorade or something
like that? My friend drinks a lot of
that and she has been able to keep it
down.

Your body and your baby are built to
sustain this type of nausea. As long as
you take your prenatal vitamins every day
and eat whenever you can, you'll be fine.

Try eating some pasta, a baked potatoe,
and white rice. In the meantime if you
can hold it down you should try drinking
some ensure so you can get some nutrients.
Good luck.
