Actually I threw up the coffee more often than not, but it still helped! I tried not to take Zofran with my first and suffered a lot. I found that taking regularly helped build it up in my system, but even missing one pill meant bad things for me. With my second I was much more consistent and the sickness wasn't nearly as bad. Of course that also meant I had to then deal with the side effects of Zofran, but that was much easier for me than the consequences of not taking it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-283121 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 15:24:15 +0000 tororojo 283121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Honeybee: When I got really desperate to poop a few weeks ago, I went to Starbucks and that did help! I'm not a regular coffee drinker though. Does it help with your nausea or just constipation? This morning I fought through it and didn't take the zofran after all, so that should help! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-283114 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 15:18:19 +0000 Honeybee 283114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tororojo: Have you tried coffee? My go-to pregnancy breakfast is a cup of coffee and a Fiber One bar. Even if I throw it up, it seems to help. Also, maybe ask your doctor about what else you can take. Constipation is a serious problem on these drugs, and it can cause big issues besides just discomfort. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-283087 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 14:54:32 +0000 travelgirl1 283087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I still have it in my third trimester, but it's only when I forget to take my anti-nausea tablets that I really feel it. Don't feel bad about taking medicine! I was on two different types for the first 20 weeks and it was a life saver, I feel like baby was better off when I wasn't a hot mess of sickness. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-283079 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 14:50:01 +0000 Mrs. Pen 283079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaisyMay: @tororojo: my mw told me that fruits actually tend to make you more sick because they are a fast digesting food... meaning the fast it digests, the faster it could come up :P she recommended pairing fruit with protein or "substance", such a peanut/almond butter, oatmeal, nuts, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-283078 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 14:48:41 +0000 Mrs. Pen 283078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was sick the entire first half of my pregnancy... finally felt better between 18-20 weeks. I didn't take zofran at all just because in general I'm against medication (but that does not mean you shouldn't - if it helps you need to do what's best for you!!). I threw up every morning... it was awful.<br /> Finally what helped tame it was tea! Earth Mama Angel Baby morning wellness tea. It was a lifesaver.<br /> Thankfully it didn't return :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-283048 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 14:24:55 +0000 tororojo 283048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaisyMay: I only have the problem when I take zofran and I've tried everything! Lots of fruits and veggies, water and fiber cereal. I can still go, just takes a little longer than I would prefer. Ahh, pregnancy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-282990 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 13:38:28 +0000 MaisyMay 282990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tororojo: Can you up your fruit intake? That might help with regularity issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-282966 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 13:29:46 +0000 sulli301 282966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It is normal!! I was getting sick almost every day until 22 weeks &amp; now @ 24 weeks 3 days I am finally getting sick less often (maybe once or twice/week). Hang in there!! :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-282961 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 13:28:00 +0000 blackbird 282961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One of my girlfriends was really sick up until about her 5th month. Took Zofran every day and got to the point where it barely took the edge off. Eventually she stopped taking it, poor thing. I hope it goes away for you soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-282953 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 13:24:47 +0000 wheres_c 282953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was really sick until about 14 weeks. At 14 weeks, my sickness transitioned to early-am only. From 14 weeks until now (24 weeks) I puke every morning when I wake up but then it's gone for the rest of the day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-282925 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 13:14:12 +0000 Weagle 282925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was really sick throughout my first and second trimesters. It was a bit better for the third. Still kind of nauseated, but no longer puking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-282898 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 13:01:08 +0000 googly-eyes 282898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't have it in the second, but I did get it again in the third. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-282879 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 12:48:30 +0000 Honeybee 282879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Weeks 15-16 were my worst, so here's hope you'll feel better soon! Truthfully, my sickness never fully went away, but it did get much better between about 20-30 weeks, with both pregnancies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-282867 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 12:43:39 +0000 tororojo 282867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm, this hasn't given me much hope, but at least I'm not alone! I keep reading things that say 16 weeks, but I have my doubts. I never realized how badly pregnancy could suck!</p> <p>@MaisyMay: The other reason I would like to avoid Zofran is that it totally stops me up. It's better than puking, but not ideal! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-282677 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 10:13:21 +0000 MamaMoose 282677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine stopped at 18 weeks.</p> <p>@LemonLong: I just turned 28 weeks on Sunday and your comment is scaring the crap out of me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-282671 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 10:08:18 +0000 LemonLong 282671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was sick until 18 weeks before it went away....then it came back at 28 weeks :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-282665 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 10:04:16 +0000 MaisyMay 282665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't feel bad about taking medicine! It's there to make your pregnancy more manageable.<br /> I threw up every morning and every night until nearly 20 weeks. And there are times when I eat something and not even an hour later I am throwing up, not as often but once every few weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2nd-trimester-nausea-anyone-else#post-282658 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 09:59:55 +0000 tororojo 282658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Waaaaah! Tomorrow I'll be 15 weeks along and I still feel like puking daily--is this normal? I am averaging about 1 Zofran a day still. This morning I have been fighting it, trying not to pop a pill, but I think I'm about to cave. I feel like a failure when I resort to taking medicine, but maybe that's stupid. I just don't want to keep taking it for the next 6 months! Any other miserable 2nd trimester moms-to-be out there? When did it go away (did it go away?) ? </p>
