Yikes! This happened with my second too. I found that sometimes hard candies like Lifesavers helped a bit. And carbs of course

You could try unisom and b-6 (after talking to your OB) and/or these: http://www.amazon.com/B-Natal-Morning-Sickness-Therapops-Everidis/dp/B000XP9DSW

I haven't tried the lollipops. I did find that gum and pepper mints helped me get through some rough work shifts.

And I basically had to force myself to eat plain chicken breast because it helped me feel better long-term if I could choke it down.

And I took Zofran for about a week because I could not stop vomiting (it didn't help with the nausea but I stopped vomiting).

And I absolutely lived on Frosted Flakes.

So sorry you're going through this. I just had a mild stomach flu and it gave me such intense flashbacks to morning sickness! I also found I could only take a specific kind of prenatal and I had to take it at night before bed.

@wheres_c: I found citrus was most helpful for me. The only scent I could tolerate was citrus, plus sipping lemonade or Sprite. Lifesavers sometimes helped get me through the day. Seabands sometimes helped cut the nausea but I couldn't wear them to work so not super helpful.

I took meds though, because I was not at all functional. Don't be afraid to request something if you're keep feeling so terrible.

1/2 tab of unisom + vitamin b6 every night is the only thing that worked. it helped even the next day.

I'm so sorry you're sick! I had hyperemesis gravidarum and it was so awful. Try to keep down as much fluid as you can (obviously) try making your liquid icy icy cold. Try any fluid that sounds appealing, for me it was frequently lemonade. Try to only eat tiny bits and space it out to keep down as much as possibleb when you are feeling extra lousy.

The unisom and b6 was a godsend for me, definitely ask about it. There was just recently a study that was released about the safety of zofran so if that was a worry for you feel free to check that out. I know there is a link on the helpher.org site which is a site for hyperemesis. You might find some other helpful info on there too.
