It's horrible. So far, one LO gets car sick a lot. Poor kid! I always feel bad about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-getting-carsickseasick#post-2708325 Fri, 10 Mar 2017 10:13:03 +0000 Caly 2708325@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup. Both of mine get car sick. I feel so badly for them. About 8 out of 10 car rides include a puke fest. One is good at using the bucket we keep in the car, the other, not so much. Let's just say I'm a professional puke cleaner upper. It sucks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-getting-carsickseasick#post-2708324 Fri, 10 Mar 2017 10:09:16 +0000 psw27 2708324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our LO did for a long time.... but we got him a new car seat and we have only had one incident in about a year. So weird. He's still rear facing, so I'm hoping once he is forward facing he is in the clear! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-getting-carsickseasick#post-2708315 Fri, 10 Mar 2017 09:57:57 +0000 catlady 2708315@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. DD threw up literally every time we were in a car longer than 20 min before she turned 2. Thank goodness for kids' dramamine! It has made our lives so much easier. Luckily, she seems to be starting to outgrow it now at age 3.5, plus she has never had trouble on planes, trains, or boats. Motion doesn't affect me, so we think she got it from DH.</p> <p>Not looking forward to seeing if DS has inherited it too... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-getting-carsickseasick#post-2708312 Fri, 10 Mar 2017 09:43:21 +0000 cabbagerose 2708312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My kids would get car sick , sea sick ect. I always carried zip lock bags just in case, and then I found PIS bands they work great. <a href="https://www.rei.com/product/783422/psi-bands-wristbands" rel="nofollow">https://www.rei.com/product/783422/psi-bands-wristbands</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-getting-carsickseasick#post-2708254 Fri, 10 Mar 2017 06:21:08 +0000 Ajsmommy 2708254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dd daughter gets car sick.

I give them Dramamine for kids and take Bonine for myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/kids-getting-carsickseasick#post-2708162 Thu, 09 Mar 2017 21:18:50 +0000 mrbee 2708162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is this a problem for you or your family? I get carsick sometimes, and my daughter inherited it from me - she gets so sick if she's in a car for a long time! We take a 6-hour bus pretty regularly to our province capital, and it's really hard on her... I feel awful, since it's basically my fault she inherited this. </p>
