I preferred ginger candies/candied ginger. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ginger-capsules-for-nausea#post-2402635 Tue, 29 Dec 2015 00:31:32 +0000 mrschickpea 2402635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Peppermint tea has been working for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ginger-capsules-for-nausea#post-2402551 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 21:49:58 +0000 autumnlove 2402551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I liked ginger chew candies! Chimes brand. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ginger-capsules-for-nausea#post-2402541 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 21:42:25 +0000 hony bologna 2402541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sorry you've been having such a tough time! I also have celiac disease and pregnancy was such a struggle. Can't comment on the ginger (I tried the pills/tea/candy, but I had HG and the nausea was too extreme to touch it), but some other things that helped were:</p> <p>- sucking hard candies, especially peppermint-flavored ones<br /> - chewing gum nonstop<br /> - drinking carbonated beverages (if you can't stomach water)</p> <p>There are some GF crackers that are bland, Glutino table crackers and Schär breadsticks - you can find them at WF or online. Hope things improve soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ginger-capsules-for-nausea#post-2402525 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 21:30:20 +0000 ldh112 2402525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They didn't work for me unfortunately. I tried a few other natural things before my midwife prescribed me Zofran. I think Zofran is getting some bad press currently due to conflicting studies on its effects. I was on it prior to the newer studies (by just about 8 months!). My midwife said she's less likely to prescribe it now but I know there are a few other medications out there now as well. Good luck! Nausea is the worst. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ginger-capsules-for-nausea#post-2402510 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 21:10:10 +0000 yin 2402510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ginger worked well for me. I drank ginger beer and kept ginger candy on hand. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ginger-capsules-for-nausea#post-2402489 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 20:49:03 +0000 Silva 2402489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Tanjowen: I've had some tea but haven't tried drinking it all day, mostly because I can't stomach the thought of it. Hopefully the capsules will be an easier route! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ginger-capsules-for-nausea#post-2402467 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 20:31:14 +0000 Tanjowen 2402467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not the capsules, but my BFF had horrible nausea and drank ginger tea all day long and said it helped a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ginger-capsules-for-nausea#post-2402463 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 20:29:38 +0000 Silva 2402463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was never nauseous when I was pregnant with my daughter, but it's been rough this time around. I've only actually thrown up once, but i spend all day in the zone of debating whether or not making myself puke will make me feel better or not. i have to force myself to eat.</p> <p>A midwife at the practice I go to offered a couple suggestions, one was 1000mg daily of ginger (she said capsule form is easiest but tea/candies are fine too). Did this work for anyone?<br /> Any other tips? Eating all day doesn't work anymore, and I have celiac disease so I can't do saltines/most carbs. Gluten free substitutes are okay, but largely unappealing (like everything else). </p>
