I'm 12 weeks and I was told that the MS should end around 12 to 13 weeks. Well, I hope this is true. I've been so sick. I don't even feel like myself anymore. All i do is sit in my bed praying that this MS will end soon. I was hoping I could find confort on this forum, but it doesn't seem too busy.:-(

This forum doesn't appear very active but I'm just here to gripe. I'm in bed for about the 7th straight day feeling increasingly nauseaus each day. Haven't brought up, just queasy, tired, stuffy, crampy, headachy et al. I'm self employed and used to being active so this is really tough on my spirit as well as my professional and personal life! Can someone remind me how awesome babies are and why I wanted this so bad?

I had tried everything - every dietary recommendation, B12/B6/Folic acid injections, acupuncture, electrode nausea bracelets.... everything! Finally, I went and saw a Naturopathic Doctor who did a homeopathic makeup and gave me a dose of Sepia 30c. It was miraculous! Within minutes I had color to my face, I was hungry, and I was happy for the first time in weeks. That evening I felt so wonderful. I had to re-dose a few times and eventually I took my constitutional remedy of NatMur 30C and that has been my savior for the past three days. No more puking, dry heaving, or feeling generally awful. I am still amazed! I recommend seeing a doctor who does homeopathy, unless you have experience yourself.

I'm taking generic Zofran and it is working great. I had to call around and found a HUGE difference in price for it. I was quoted over $350 at Walgreens for the highest, $68.84 at Sams Club and $17.30 at Costco. I about passed out over the difference. The same dose, the same drug, the same amount (30 pills). I recommend anyone who has to take it to call around and price check. If there is not a Costco close to you, I would mail order it through them with that type of savings. I'm also very upset with Walgreens who I have used pretty much my whole life for marking this drug out of my reach using them where I have to drive two hours to get it at a reasonable price. It's worth the drive for the savings but I should not have to.

My Dr. put me on half a unisom and 50mg B6. I only take it at night with this pregnancy, but took it twice a day with my last one. Maybe ask your Dr. about that option. They will know if it's right for you.

Hi there. I am really at the end of my tether. I'm 14 weeks with my first babe. I have been so so sick. I hardly ever vomit but I constantly have extreme nausea. From morning till evening and if I wake in the night, I feel terrible then too. It's constant. I had 3 weeks off work and it was just awful. It's so lonely lying in bed in so much discomfort. I couldn't do anything. I finally saw the specialist and he prescibed Zofran which has helped but sometimes doesn't seem to do anything. I'm too sick to worry about missing so much work. I have tired everything homeopathic remedies, Acupuncture even a Osteopath but nothing seems to work! The specialist said yeterday to try and accept it which does make sense and is better than what my GP said 'embrace it'. If people haven't been through it, they really do not understand. I say eat small amounts regularly and eat what you like! This moan has helped, thanks!Has B6 helped anyone?

Hi,
I am on for my third pregnancy, I have a 7 and 8 year old, the sickness during both these pregnancies were extreme, the sickness/nausea is gradually getting worse with this pregnancy. During my first pregnancy I had tried the travel sickness bands, but found these totally hopeless, they would not stay on and moved around, today I my husband purchased the boots children bands, I am over the moon with them, they apply the right amunt of pressure, as I have such slim wrists, I know a lot of people say they dont work, (as I did with the adults ones) but the childrens ones have really worked for me, might be worth a try. Oh and Im just coming up 7 weeks pregnant.:)

I am almost 18 weeks pregnant and still vomiting:(
I keep thinking it will go away. The doctor has me on meds to ease the nausea and they work most of the time. But when I try to stop taking them I get so sick within the next 48 hours. I guess I have to take them for a few more weeks.

Caitlen - I would try eating more protein. When I had m/s really bad, the only thing I was eating was crackers but then my blood sugar would crash and i would get even more sick. My midwife suggested protein, so I started drinking milk before getting our of bed (that's to my DH delivering it to me!) and I always carred those little cheeses in wax. It didn't solve all my problems, but it definitely helped. Good luck!! And if you find something that you can eat w/o getting sick. Just go for it.

Hi Caitlen. You poor thing. I suggest going to the pharmacist or even your doctor if you are finding it too much to deal with. It sounds like you are having lots and lots of morning sickness and pregnancy symptoms and it can be really tough. Some people get more than others and it sounds like baby is kicking your butt! lol. Can you take a day or two off just to take it easy and find some ways through your symptoms? I found eating apples and fresh fruit helped... later crackers and sucking barley sugars (hard candy) was good, but everyone is different. I used to go into the kitchen and look around until I found something that I felt ok about eating... listen to your body and it might let you eat something. I really hope that you are starting to feel better!

Hi all .. Im just over 5 weeks along in my first pregnancy - I haven't even been to see my OBGYN yet. My appointment is set for week 8. I am experiencing some terrible pregnancy symptoms. Head aches , nasuea, vomiting on empty stomach, low blood pressure, dizziness, fainting, im not able to sleep at night, I havent been able to find anything that i can stomach to eat. I havent eaten anything substantial in days. Is this going to get any better? i work full time and am a part time student in grad school at night. I don't know if all of this is normal and I'm starting to slack at school and work because of these symptoms. Any one have any suggestions or advice?

Our family recently had a tummy bug that had my partner and I feeling really yuck for days. Then it suddenly occured to me (and I told my partner).... this is what morning sickness feels like.... but morning sickness was worse. I think my partner gained a whole new respect for pregnant people. lol.

Hang in there everyone. Morning sickness is seriously yuck... mine went away at 12 weeks luckily, but everyone is different. I found that eating an apple or plum as soon as I felt nausea made me feel better. Just before eating times I would always feel sick, so I started to eat something when I knew I would be feeling sick soon and that helped. There were a few days there where I felt sick all day and that was it. All I can say is that 2nd trimester was much much much better. Hang in there everyone, and listen to what your body feels like eating. If you feel like crackers, eat them, if you feel like fruit, eat those. Good luck.

Morning sickness is the worst.. And I have no clue why they call it morning sickness because I also experienced it all hours of the day.. The only thing that made me feel better was eating.. I took popcorn (no salt no butter) in the car with me because I could eat it constantly and it was almost flavorless so it didnt upset my tummy.. Hard sugar free candies also worked for me.. I had it until about 13-14 weeks.. I slept alot but didnt have alot of responsibility at the time so I was lucky enough to be able to do so.. Its just one of those things that you have to ride out.. Hope you all feel better soon!.. =)

I couldn't find anything that helped my morning sickness. I was sick from 5 or 6 in the morning when it woke me up to 3 or 4 in the evening everyday until I was about 4 1/2 months. I am now 24 weeks and still get sick every morning as soon as I get out of bed. If I eat it makes it worse so I get it over with first thing and then I'm good for the rest of the day. Oh well, maybe when I hit the 3rd trimester it will go away :)
