I'm only 11 weeks, and have had morning sickness from week 8 - i find a ghlass of milk and a ginger cookie helps. ↑

yes sally it is normal to feel fine for a few days at a time i was sick like that for a few days and then i was fine i found that i had had a case of the flu. not morning sickness. but it is also common in morning sickness to feel fine for a few days and bad the next 10 you never know. now that i am towards the end of my preg i find that i am sick everymorning and most of the day....good luck to you ↑

I'm 9 weeks pregnant and I have had morning sickness since about 5 weeks pregnant. I find eating something like crackers in the morning makes me feel better. And some nights I even sleep with a pack on the side of me for those mid-night snacks, because if I eat something too heavy it will all come back up. ↑

when i was in my first trimester i was so naseated all the time. never actually vomitted but felt like i needed to all day. I tried everything to try to help me, everyone suggest things but until you try multiple things you will find one that works for you. Here are a few things to try mylanta (coats your tummy) tums (work for me) crackers, plain bagels, gatorade. I have to say that I tried a lot of different things but the thing that worked for me was gatorade and tums. Sometimes even a glass of milk but you may have to wait until some of it lessens. I also found that as long as I ate very bland foods that I was a lot better. My doctor told me that the naseau was created by too much acid in your stomach, so watch what you eat. The mylanta and tums you can take safely as directed on the bottle. You will make it through, I am 22 weeks now and feel great! Good luck!!!! ↑

Morning sickness is worst when your blood sugar levels are low. So, ironically enough, the less you eat, the less you feel like eating - viciuos cycle. Try taking some juice to get your levels up, then try to force yourself to eat something every couple of hours and see if that helps. ↑

If it is that bad go to the ER .. I had to & they gave me medicine & within a couple of days or regualry taking it when they told me to, it helped a ton ... because if you wait until the dr appt you could get dehytrated, I did & that's why I had to go ... so be safe & go now, they can't turn you away ↑

You may want to consider sucking on peppermints, although try not to eat too many, because that can make it worse. ↑

I'm sorry you feel this way at 4 weeks, but I guess it's all a big part of being pregnant. I am 27 weeks, and stilkl have morning sickness almost everyday, and actually throw up about 2x a week, it's horrible. It is a lot worse when I eat or drink anything with sugar in it in the morning. Even coffee or juice. So, if i stick to water and carbs in the morning I'm usually okay:) ↑

well sweet heart all i can tell you is to maybe eat some crackers that some times but very seldomly helped me, i'm 17 and about to have my first baby and i'm 3 months and i still have morning sickness maybe you should see a better doctor because no matter how many weeks you are you should still be able to see the doctor.GOOD LUCK ON YOUR PREGNANCY! ↑

I am a little over 6 weeks preg. and sadly enough there just isnt much that helps. Drink lots of cold water and nibble on a few crackers. Good luck, I know how awful it is! ↑

Try sucking a boiled sweet, I have lemon hard boiled sweets in individual wrappers, the old fashioned kind where you buy them out of a bottle and get them weighed! the odd one really helps to gently sooth it away, And i also find Ice cream - it temp numbs that yuky feeling cause its so cold, either get stuck in with a spoon or put loads in a pint glass and let it melt down a little, its yummy and really helps. Im 7weeks and feel really yuky all day and all night its awful - you just have to make yourself as comfortable as you can to get by the next few weeks. Sleeping helps loads - you cant feel sick when you asleep, so sleep as much as pos, just to pass time - Remember its only temp!! Good Luck to everybody xxx ↑

Finally someone I can really relate too! I am 12 weeks today and my nausea is just letting up a little. I was severely sick from week 5 until week 10. Completely miserable!!! I was vomiting, on average, 5 times a day and sometimes up to 12 times. Twice I went to the ER and was given an IV for my electrolytes and the Rx phenegren for the nausea. On my 2nd visit to the ER they admitted me into the hospital overnight ans gave me the Rx Zofran. Zofran helped more than anything! The phenegren they gave me just made me sleep. Before the Zofran I felt bad from am to pm. I couldn't keep ANY food or liquids down and my husband was really freaking out. I have never known anyone else that had nausea like me. I thought it would never go away. I was put on a special diet that may help you. I ate plain chicken broth, jello, popsicles and crackers and could only drink ginger ale, tea, and pedialyte. I am still careful of what I eat. Good luck! ↑

Maybe it's the British in me, but I find food items that contain vinegar and salt are helpful, particularly dill pickles, Whole Foods Mkt. Organic french fries with malt vinegar and salt on top, and Boulder brand Malt Vinegar & Salt potato chips (also at Whole Foods and other health stores and depts.). I couldn't believe the crackers and ginger didn't really help. In fact, the smell of ginger alone made me gag. Don't overdo the chips, though, as too much greasy food only adds back to the problem. Just eat enough to feel better. ↑

I had many suggestions when I had m/s, however none of them worked, turned out I had hyperemisis which is the extreme form of m/s, I was hospitialised to get my fluid intake up as I was peeing once a day and not able to ingest anything, it lasted 3 months. I'm not trying to scarey you, but I was very naive and thought it was normal, it wasn't. I was very sick, my baby was fine, but I wasn't enjoying life or even functioning. Try everything everyone suggest, ginger, peppermint tea, salt and vinegar crisps, lightly flavoured mineral water, strawberries, dry toast before you get out of bed, crackers with a tiny bit of cheese, try standing on your head if someone suggests it, cos anything is worth a go, if you are dehydrated then you will find it difficult to pull yourself back from that and will need some assistance. I tried all the natural suggestions, I tried b6, medication from the doctor, I ended up havign to use supositories after my hosiptial visit (very unpleasent), but you do what you have to. I had my son in last June, and before I had him I was certain her was going to be an only child due to my pregnancy experiences, two days after giving birth I was talking of number two. Thankfully God designed us to forget these horros, m/s and birth. Good job too, or the worlds population would be of the rapid decline. All the best, remember take each day as it come, don't do too much, get your friends and family to help out, cooking, cleaning etc, to leave your partner to care for you. ↑
