My daytime nausea was better at 15 weeks, but I still felt funky if I forgot to take the diclegis at night.</p> <p>I stopped it by accident when I ran out of the meds. Luckily I felt fine that night so I decided not to refill. I have tons of Zofran left over so when I feel a wave of nausea on occasion I take that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/life-after-unisom#post-1990730 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:39:00 +0000 Mae 1990730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took 1/2 unisom + b6 until 20 weeks. every week after 14 weeks I would try to stop and I'd get sick so I'd start again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/life-after-unisom#post-1990720 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 20:36:39 +0000 Mrs. Coral 1990720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Corduroy: I had the same problem. A reall y nice older nurse told me to stop pressuring myself and to take it as long as I needed it. I took it until almost 20 weeks. I would wait a week in between weaning attempts to eliminate unnecessary nausea. Try it, if it doesn't work, try again in a week. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/life-after-unisom#post-1989851 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 11:33:55 +0000 Banana330 1989851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm still taking diclectin @23w, two pills in the late afternoons to combat my continuing evening sickness. I had a few spells of feeling great and thinking I could stop but continue to feel terrible at least a few times a week. Good weeks I get 2-3 days of feeling fine. Your body probably needs to adjust. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/life-after-unisom#post-1989849 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 11:31:44 +0000 MrsKoala 1989849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I tried to come off of it several times before 20 weeks and each time I threw up and was horribly nauseous all day long. At 20 weeks, all of the sudden, I started to feel better and tapered off of the unisom by 23 weeks. Hopefully, you just need some more time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/life-after-unisom#post-1989843 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 11:29:41 +0000 Cole 1989843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had hyperemesis gravidarum so my experience is (hopefully) different but I wound up taking it until the end, just once a day before bed. I sort of suspect that my nausea and vomiting was exacerbated by stress and exhaustion so getting a good night sleep helped (which the unisom part helped). Can you maybe try a super calm bedtime ritual for yourself to see if you can get good sleep and see if that helps? Don't get me wrong, I think a big part of it is just that the medication helps keep the edge off for nausea but it might be worth trying if you think it's mostly gone.</p> <p>Good luck! I hope you feel nausea free soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/life-after-unisom#post-1989816 Thu, 18 Dec 2014 11:19:52 +0000 Corduroy 1989816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 14.5 weeks and have been taking Unisom for morning sickness since week 7 or so. I tried to stop at week 10 for four days or so but I still had nausea. For the past week I've been tapering down to &lt;1/4 pill and feeling pretty good. Then I tried not taking it again last night and I gagged at the breakfast table this morning. </p> <p>How was your transition off Unisom? Did you have a few days of nausea as your body adjusted or did you feel 100% better? </p>
