It was almost a year ago, but I still remember the icky days. What helped me the most was to eat like every half hour, constant snacking. Grill up some chicken and keep a bunch in your fridge. It's a good quick protien snack(which will last you longer) and it's great to throw on a salad too. I know when you feel sick, the last thing you want to do is eat, but that's what helped me. Good luck!The Hullshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02684746483238474520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685045962561762263.post-43428634753828173362007-10-26T21:54:00.000-07:002007-10-26T21:54:00.000-07:00I have no advice to get rid of that yucky sickenes...I have no advice to get rid of that yucky sickeness cause i oculdn't get rid of it myself.

I've tried everything under the sun and NOTHING has worked for me. So if YOU find something to be helpful, pass it this way. My turn will be coming soon and I'm sooooo not looking forward to that part of it :)Taraleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11261325369235046820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685045962561762263.post-34766981385822341552007-10-25T19:13:00.000-07:002007-10-25T19:13:00.000-07:00Daniel....personal experience???Daniel....personal experience???Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10653367923853307853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685045962561762263.post-48433235544106642422007-10-25T14:54:00.000-07:002007-10-25T14:54:00.000-07:00Wow!

Tiredness plays a big part in morning sickness.<BR/> * Get enough sleep at night.<BR/> * Get out of bed slowly in the morning.<BR/> * Try eating plain crackers or dry cereal before you get out of bed in the morning. <BR/><BR/>Smells:<BR/><BR/> * Open windows or turn on exhaust fans when cooking and after meals.<BR/> * Cooking in the microwave usually produces less odors.<BR/> * Silly as it sounds, carry a handkerchief with a few drops of a non nausea causing essential oil (lemon for example) in it and breath through it if you can't get away from the smell that is bothering you. <BR/><BR/>Food and Drink:<BR/><BR/> * Avoid greasy or spicy foods as they often cause nausea or heartburn.<BR/> * Eat what you want when you want it. Your cravings will not lead you the wrong way.<BR/> * Have frequent protein snacks. (Low fat meats and seafood, nuts, eggs and beans are high protein.)<BR/> * Eat smaller meals every two hours or so.<BR/> * Eating something salty before a meal can help you "make it through" a meal.<BR/> * Do not drink fluids with your meals.<BR/> * Non caffeinated teas like peppermint and ginger can help calm nausea.<BR/> * Drink small amounts of fluids regularly though out the day to avoid dehydration.<BR/> * Do not skip meals if you can help it.<BR/> * Avoid spicy and fried food - both eating and smelling it can increase your nausea.<BR/> * Cold food may have less nausea inducing smells associated with them.<BR/><BR/>Supplements:<BR/><BR/> * Try taking your prenatals later in the day.<BR/> * Talk to your doctor about:<BR/> o Vitamin B6 - 50 mg. daily. Vitamin B6 has been shown to help with pregnancy induced nausea.<BR/> o Ginger capsules: 250 mg. three times daily. Ginger has long been associated with alleviating nausea. (Remember drinking ginger ale when you felt sick when you were little?)<BR/> o Ask your doctor if you can stop taking your Prenatals temporarily to see if the nausea diminishes. You may still need to take a Folic Acid supplement to help protect your baby.<BR/> o Talk to your doctor about not taking iron supplements unless you are anemic. Iron supplements can be hard for your stomach to deal with.The RealFatmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17920653932121530891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685045962561762263.post-61529127846997554042007-10-25T10:29:00.000-07:002007-10-25T10:29:00.000-07:00I much prefer ROLAIDS to TUMS they taste like the ...I much prefer ROLAIDS to TUMS they taste like the Tropical Fruit Punch Kool-Aid.Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16473532005848242307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685045962561762263.post-33545810324085057782007-10-25T09:56:00.000-07:002007-10-25T09:56:00.000-07:00Morning Sickness sucks!

I've tried many tricks.. red hot candies, ginger snaps, B vitamins, they all help a little but carb anything is the only thing that settles my stomach. Especially baked potatoes or plain tortilla chips. Yuck, HATE that!Leah and Dustinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04215598044079155988noreply@blogger.com
