Honestly, the only thing that helped me was Zofran. Talk to your doctor and see if he/she thinks that would be an option for you.

I still felt mildly nauseous on Zofran, but I kept food down (most of the time), and that was my biggest concern.

I agree with BlueBonnet - Zofran was the only thing that helped me. I still felt sick, but kept food down - which was most important to me.

ditto Zofran.
I have ginger gum which helps for like two minutes and then it's over. If I continually drink ginger ale that helps a little depending on what I've already eaten that day..soda is not the greatest thing for me.
My doctor didn't even ask any questions, just said, yes, here's the prescription, take it if you feel you really need it.

ginger and popsicles. they only helped a little. there was a lot of "grin and bear it" and "carry a puke bucket everywhere"

I always had to keep my tummy full. As long as there was food in it, I wouldn't puke.

I havn't found anything that has helped me yet...I decided to just try and get through it...I actually find if I just throw up and get it over with I feel much better.

I'm from San Diego and we have a ton of Mexican candy that can be found anywhere. All the tamarind candies worked wonders!!! The Pelon Pelo Rico in the push-up tops especially worked for me. I took a bunch during our international flight and it actually stopped my nauseousness.

I also used the B6/Unisom combo. It helped a little. I had all day (and night) sickness too, and like you, throwing up didn't make me feel any better...

Call the doctor and see if she'll give you Zofran. If I had known that mine would last 24 weeks, I would have pushed harder to get it in the beginning. Good news is, puking doesn't actually hurt the baby... If you're keeping something down, baby is getting some nutrients. You're body will give them to him/her before it takes them for you.

Two things that have helped me this time around- Otter Pops, my 11 year old cousin brought me one when we were at the beach last week, it really helped!

Also I found these Chimes Ginger Chews at one of our little markets the other day (Fresh and Easy if you have them). These are awesome, I eat one, it really burns like regular ginger, but then it gets rid of the nausea for a half hour or so! It gives me a chance to eat, which then makes me feel a little better!

Just wanted to chime in to say - mint tea has saved my sanity! From weeks 6-10 I was feeling awful pretty constantly. I felt like I tried everything - Wristbands, eating all the time, smelling a lemon, anything and all things ginger - some of it helped for a moment or two, but nothing consistent.

My accupuncturist recommended peppermint or any mint tea. I finally tried it this weekend and I'm like a whole different person. I just always have a mug with me and sip on it throughout the day. I felt like myself for the first time in over a month.

I had never heard the mint option before so I wanted to be sure to share it here. It might work for those of you who haven't found much relief in other remedies. Good luck!
