Hellobee Boards

@LovelyPlum: weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I know preggo pops worked for a lot of people!

@LovelyPlum: Congrats!!! I've been following the July POAS board a little but must've missed this So excited and happy for you!!

As for the morning sickness, mine kicked in around 5-6 wks but my MIL told me hers starts at before 4! She said she got sick way before she missed her period with all 3 of her kids.

I know you've probably seen me go on and on about unisom + B6 but it really has saved me. I put up with M/S for about 2-3 weeks before I gave in and I am still taking it (at 16wks)!

Eating right before bed and even in the middle of the night seemed like the only other thing that helped me, as well. Constantly. eating. all. day! haha

I had nausea almost immediately when I was pregnant with LO.

I tried ginger (gum, crystallized, candies, etc), sea bands, eating small frequent meals, exercising, preggie pop drops, and sadly nothing really worked.

When do you go to your OB? I got a prescription for Zofran and that saved me.

I think taking B6 helped me too!!

And whaaaat @LovelyPlum: !!!! Congrats!!! I missed this BFP!!

I was sick constantly from around 6wks. I found drinking coke was the only thing that really helped.

@Dandelion: Wait a sec...did you get a BFP too???

@2PeasinaPod: I was wondering too... Congrats to both!!

Oh and the only things that helped were eating constantly and eventually zofran.

One of my friends is preggo with her third babe, and she always gets MS really quickly. I think everyone is different, I wouldn't necessarily believe the "general rules" about when things start in pregnancy. Mine started around 5 weeks. I too am sensitive to hormone changes! Even for just my period, I would be a raging monster one minute and a weeping mess the next. Lucky DH!

ETA: I ate stouffer's mac and cheese about 3 times a week for a few weeks... only thing I wanted!

So happy for you! And yes, my food aversions started the week we got our BFP (maybe 1 week later).

I found that drinking lots of water was key ... and eating a piece of fruit or some fresh veggies between meals. OH, and embarrassing amounts of sparkling water and ginger ale (I haven't touched the stuff since week 7).

These are good signs that your hormones are raging!!

Woohoo! Congrats on the BFP! Hope the MS does down soon!

@LovelyPlum: you'll want the Doxylamine and not the Diphen type. It's not a gel cap, it's like a tablet. Super tiny but tastes like hell so drink with a big gulp of water! good luck!!

With my first I was sick before I got a BFP, with my second, it's been more severe (hypremesis both times), but didn't start until 6 weeks and still going strong at 12.5 (first preg sickness lasted until 18 weeks). If you find the usual MS treatments work for you, good! If you're at the place where nothing is working and you can barely get out of bed, don't delay and ask your doc for Zofran/ odansetron. The earlier you get on top of it, the better you'll fare. No matter what, it will pass, you will like food again someday, and you'll have an adorable baby worth all of it. Good luck!

I am 4 weeks pregnant, and I get nighttime nausea and slight bouts throughout the day. I have been eating oatmeal in the morning and eating saltine crackers.
