I don't think it helped much with nausea (I had it pretty badly), but it did help a lot with insomnia. I hope the MS is short lived for you :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/morning-sickness-and-magnesium#post-2865289 Sun, 06 Jan 2019 19:41:42 +0000 IRunForFun 2865289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@DesertDreams88: Well, if nothing else I could use the anxiety relief. Being nauseous makes me really anxious! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/morning-sickness-and-magnesium#post-2865288 Sun, 06 Jan 2019 19:38:03 +0000 DesertDreams88 2865288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took mag during my 2nd pregnancy but I don't think it helped my nausea, sorry :-/</p> <p>It totally helped my anxiety, constipation, insomnia, and light sleeping. I still take it regularly and I've started giving MagKidz to my toddler. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/morning-sickness-and-magnesium#post-2865279 Sun, 06 Jan 2019 18:50:55 +0000 IRunForFun 2865279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kaohinani: Ohhhh OK, that makes sense. Right now I'm having the opposite of constipation anyway, LOL. </p> <p>@turquoisemama: Ugh yeah 6 or 7 or more weeks seems soooo long! I was considering the spray. We already have some of the powdered drink mix so I may try that first. Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/morning-sickness-and-magnesium#post-2865278 Sun, 06 Jan 2019 18:45:23 +0000 turquoisemama 2865278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@IRunForFun: I did the magnesium spray. I would just spray it on after showering. I can’t say for sure that it helped but I think it did a little bit. I was also taking Unisom B6 which helped the most. But really it just took time to get through it. Hang in there, it sucks :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/morning-sickness-and-magnesium#post-2865274 Sun, 06 Jan 2019 18:24:07 +0000 Kaohinani 2865274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@IRunForFun: It is but calcium in larger doses can constipate. I was also taking a prenatal, extra folic acid, a plethora of medications. My OBGYN stated that the mag/cal mix did it for me. 🤷‍♀️ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/morning-sickness-and-magnesium#post-2865273 Sun, 06 Jan 2019 18:21:26 +0000 IRunForFun 2865273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MommySLP: Thanks!!</p> <p>@Kaohinani: Oh really? I thought magnesium was supposed to help with constipation! That's crazy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/morning-sickness-and-magnesium#post-2865271 Sun, 06 Jan 2019 18:19:58 +0000 Kaohinani 2865271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@IRunForFun: I used magnesium with calcium supplements while pregnant with my son. I only had very minor nausea with him (not at all like the 24-7 nausea I had with DD) so it helped considerably. The ONLY downfall - I suffered from EVEN WORSE constipation. I suppose the trade off was worth it though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/morning-sickness-and-magnesium#post-2865269 Sun, 06 Jan 2019 18:07:07 +0000 MommySLP 2865269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@IRunForFun: I started magnesium/calcium supplement after doing the same unisom/B6/sea bands. I think I took it twice a day (can’t really remember). But it really helped. Hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/morning-sickness-and-magnesium#post-2865257 Sun, 06 Jan 2019 17:02:07 +0000 IRunForFun 2865257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did anyone try a magnesium supplement to help with nausea? Or take one for another reason and found it helped? I'm trying to stay ahead of this constant nausea at only 6 weeks - already doing unisom + b6 and wearing sea bands. </p> <p>Anyone have luck with the magnesium? </p>
