I'm lost in Nausea-ville and can't seem to find my way out! Just when I was telling my best friend that I thought that I might be tapering out of it since I'm almost 13 weeks....up comes breakfast this morning. What was that! Has anybody got any NEW advice besides the older remedies...
- Don't let your stomach get empty. (Well, my tummy wasn't empty after eating breakfast...which seemed to make the whole "episode" to the bathroom grosser)
- Wear the "Sea Band" wrist bands on the pressure points. (If you don't lose one of them first b/c both have to be on to work)
- Emetrol (Not if you want to stay awake)
- Don't drink carbonated drinks (Another way to fight the pregnancy fatigue is a Dr. Pepper!)
- Eat crackers (This is actually a good one, but how many crackers can a person eat without serious dry mouth)
- Lay down and rest (With a 3 year old jumping on you - aint going to happen)
- Preggie Pops (That's just hard candy in a fancy wrapper)
The one and only wonderful thing about this season in my life is the end results which were again confirmed today at my sonogram. That little thing is about 3 inches long but we could fully see it's legs and arms moving around....it's a REAL LIVE baby! HA! While I could see the baby moving around on the screen, I closed my eyes to see if I could feel the movements...it's crazy I couldn't feel all that dancing around in there! The doctor checked to see if he could see the gender...he made a prediction ...but I personally think it was a little too early. Maybe I'm in denial...

Ginger tea or ginger capsules helped me. Also soup and baked potatoes for some reason. Hope this helps.
Sounds like a girl needs her momma!
Hang in there, Darlin, it will all be worth it...YOU WERE!
Love, Mom
Hey Chantel! THis kinda contradicts your #4...but Mineral Water, found in the mex. aisle at the grocery store is supposed to be good for nausea. I used it for heartburn last preg and it worked awesome for a month or so and then quit working. it's LIKE club soda, but more carbonated or I think. I tried club soda and it didn't work as well, but the mineral water did.
hey - i'm right behind you being preg =)!!
