The only thing that ever did was eating carbs and diclegis. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acupressure-bands-for-morning-sickness#post-2746909 Tue, 13 Jun 2017 14:20:34 +0000 hellobeeboston 2746909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did... I *think it helped? </p> <p>I wore them for a few weeks then my nausea went away on its own. So I wore them when it was really bad (for me) around weeks 7-8. But, i luckily didn't have it as bad as many do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acupressure-bands-for-morning-sickness#post-2746860 Tue, 13 Jun 2017 12:49:02 +0000 Revel 2746860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I felt like they helped a little for a while with my second baby. I did end up in diclegis as well.</p> <p>Acupuncture also helped quite a bit. I would leave the appointment hungry and have a good 24 hours after where I felt decent. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acupressure-bands-for-morning-sickness#post-2746779 Tue, 13 Jun 2017 11:32:03 +0000 Meowkers 2746779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@periwinklebee: ginger candy will forever have a palvovian effect on me. Just seeing it makes me queasy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acupressure-bands-for-morning-sickness#post-2746766 Tue, 13 Jun 2017 11:14:18 +0000 cascademom 2746766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used them with my first pregnancy. I thought that they helped a bit. They cut down on the constant queasiness in those early months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acupressure-bands-for-morning-sickness#post-2746757 Tue, 13 Jun 2017 10:59:14 +0000 periwinklebee 2746757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think they make much of a difference for me. Basically what helps me to keep stuff down is diclegis and subsisting on bagels....I also never want to see another ginger candy - or cracker for that matter - for as long as I live :silly: Lukewarm bath in epsom salts maybe helps a bit when I'm feeling yuck in the evening. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acupressure-bands-for-morning-sickness#post-2746754 Tue, 13 Jun 2017 10:57:54 +0000 LBee 2746754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@babybunnylove: Same. They did have a great placebo effect at first, though. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acupressure-bands-for-morning-sickness#post-2746749 Tue, 13 Jun 2017 10:53:49 +0000 LemonJack 2746749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@babybunnylove: Same here. The unisom and B6 is the only thing that kept me functioning!</p> <p>OP, I did wear the bands too and I felt like they helped. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acupressure-bands-for-morning-sickness#post-2746743 Tue, 13 Jun 2017 10:48:45 +0000 babybunnylove 2746743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used them initially starting around 6 weeks. By week 7 I was had worse MS that I called and talked with my doctor. They suggested a combination of unisom and b6. I needed that and continued to take it until week 21 (unfortunately that long). It worked so well and made it easier to function. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acupressure-bands-for-morning-sickness#post-2746727 Tue, 13 Jun 2017 10:25:29 +0000 psw27 2746727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used them both times and I think they helped! I was so sick I was willing to try anything! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acupressure-bands-for-morning-sickness#post-2746710 Tue, 13 Jun 2017 10:11:53 +0000 MrsRoo 2746710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used them with number 2 and they did help! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acupressure-bands-for-morning-sickness#post-2746709 Tue, 13 Jun 2017 10:09:24 +0000 Meowkers 2746709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone tried using acupressure bands or seabands to relieve morning sickness? Did it help? I'm approaching 6weeks and just like last time, the morning sickness has arrived. Looking for any novel advice to relieve it that doesn't involve ginger candy or crackers. Thanks! </p>
