This is so horrible… everyday this week my stomach has been feeling so queasy .. I wake up feeling nauseous .. but when I get out of bed and walk around it goes away.. but when I get back to work the nausea comes back… I really cant deal with this.. its been everyday this week.. I haven’t thrown up or anything.. I just feel really weak and nausous through out the day.. any suggestions? Ugh I feel like goin home.. I hope its not like this for the next two months! ↓
Since you know about when it's going to hit, try the preggie pops. They really helped me keep m/s away. However, you have to eat them BEFORE you start feeling sick, or they don't really work that well. Also, I drank gingerale (whichi I hate) mixed with a little bit of cranberry juice. It wasn't too bad, and that helped settle my stomach a bit. As far as fatigue, I just dealt with it. I'd go to bed at 7:00 p.m. and still be sleepy the whole next day. However, I'm feeling much better now (almost to the second tri.), so know that relief is around the corner! ↑
I drank coke. Something in the coke seemed to settled my stomach. I has this with my 1st pregnacy and now with my 2nd. I am 12 weeks along and it only gets better the closer you get to your 2nd trimester. I also would take naps when I could to help with the lack of energy but it really didn't seem to help. Good luck! ↑
Mcbee I did the same thing a few times,, I would go to sleep realy early then couldn’t wake up in the morning… I wake up a lot at nite with nausea.. what are preggie pops? And where can I get them? Thanks a lot. ↑
years ago they used to sell flat coke syrup in drugstores specifically for nausea so coke will always help. try also lime in water...as in cut a lime and squeeze it in the water, it worked wonders for a coworker. ↑
Preggie pops are just suckers that are made of natural ingredients like lavender and ginger. You can get them at Motherhood Maternity or online. Also, if you can just find crystalized ginger (I found it at Harry and David's), that will help, too. It's just ginger candy. I never tried drinking coke, but give it a whirl. I know how you feel right now... willing to try anything, right? ↑
Oh, I also had someone tell me to try to chomp on ice. I've basically craved ice water since the beginning of my pregnancy, and I always chew on the ice. It never helped me get rid of nausea, but it might help you. ↑
Thanks for the ideas guys.. but oh god will I try anything… Even my stomach has been bothering me… its not cramps but I keep getting that wave raw uncomfortable feeling in my lower stomach.. it feels like im about to get my period everyday.. ugh its so annoying.. I been drinking lots of diet soda and ginger ale.. I know soda isn’t good to drink but its not working anyway. And whenever I get nauseous I seem to get weaker. Like I cant stand up straight.. im in slow-mo and sluggish ↑
Wow sounds just like the way I'm feeling. Even when I'm not throwing up I'm sick all day. Around 3-4 pm its so hard to keep my eyes open at work.
Soooo, I've noticed getting up adn going outside to get fresh air works ok.
I started bringing orange juice and pomegranite tea to work....for some reason the tartness wakes me up a bit. You could try anything you enjoy like popsicles that are cold or a smoothie.
Eat some grapes, fruit or crackers BEFORE you get out of bed. I picked grapes because they dont spoil in the nite and I can pop a few in my mouth when I get up to tinkle. It really makes a world of difference ↑
Tarap, so you going to keep the baby despite your fears you had before about the meds?? I read on another thread you were not....good to hear you made a choice, whatever it may be...You might be nauseous from darvicet withdrawl too. Did you tell your doc all this? ↑
Maryb... the pregnancy calculator says im six weeks pregnant... and the Dr. wont see me until im 8 weeks .. my appointment is july 9th.. I wanna keep it but what i said is that if there are any big risks and if the Dr. sees any type of defects when im pregnant.. then i will terminate because i wouldnt want the baby to suffer... But as for all the positive posts i feel that im in the clear.. But the Dr. will be the only one to tell me this.. Also i went to my endocrinologist about my hormones and pituitary gland.. and he said i was fine and my tests were normal and that my testosterone was slightly higher then normal.. he said i may have poly cystic ovarian disease because of my abnormal hair growth..but he said its no big deal since i got pregnant... So far alot of people have been telling me the horror stories of pregnant women abusing drugs and having healthy babies.. so thats all i can hope for.. i been clean since 6/13 when i found out.. and that wasnt even half my first trimester so im hoping im ok.. so i abused darvocet and xanex for approx. 4 weeks of my first trimester.. just pray for me that i can keep this pregnancy and ill have a healthy baby.. and i hope the same for everyone else.. a healthy happy baby. ↑
