That sounds exactly like me, you aren't just being a wuss! I ended up keeping a little container full of cheerios next to my bed, so I'd have a handful of them before even getting up-- I'm a snoozer, so when the alarm went off, I'd have a handful, sleep another 15 minutes, then get up on the second alarm. Then have toast or something right away.
The biggest thing for me was never to have an empty stomach-- always have at least crackers or something on hand so the second you feel hungry or nauseous, have a couple. Also especially in the beginning protein helped a lot, even though most forms of it grossed me out-- for me, almond butter on toast or meatball subs worked. I agree that cola was awesome, but maybe ginger ale will work too.

My midwives told me that almonds are supposed to help, although I didn't hear than until the worst of the nausea was gone so didn't try it. Also vitamin B6 is supposed to help-- I don't know, I did try that and can't say if it helped or not. Unisom and B6 at night should help and they said even helps the next day, but I was nervous about taking Unisom unless I really needed it (even though the midwives said it was fine-- get the caplets that you can split in half, not the gel tabs).

Finally, it almost definitely won't last for 9 months. I had the same feelings as you-- oh my god, how am I going to get through this, I thought I WANTED this? But now at 13 weeks, I'm struggling to remember how bad it was. So you WILL get though it. It just sucks for a few weeks, a lot. I think 8-9 weeks was my worst point, actually.

Good luck!!

ETA: Um.... sorry for the novel!

I should also say, for me the turning point was right around 12 weeks. Right around the point where I started telling people and could get some sympathy, I stopped needing it

Hard peppermint candies (Starlight Mints, I think?) helped me a lot. And trying to keep something in my stomach at all times (sometimes just a handful of almonds, or a piece of toast with peanut butter). Honestly, though, I was sick all the way through to the very end...these just helped me not vomit in public.

Chewable papaya enzyme

Worked wonders for me!

For me (other than prescription drugs -- Zofran) my best cures were sipping hot herbal tea. (Water or other drinks mostly made me gag.) And sucking on lemon candies. I feel your pain. Morning sickness is the worst, and I had it for my entire pregnancy. I hope yours goes away in another couple of weeks like it's supposed to!

I had this all day nausea from week 6 to about week 24 and also swore off having any more kids at the time...but once the nausea broke it never returned and my pregnancy was super easy after that (except for all the weight I gained)

I totally relate to the soda craving...I never drink soda but I craved it and felt like it helped with the nausea. I only drank ginger ale and Sierra Mist natural...I also started drinking tons of sparking water (hated it prior to getting pregnant)

Sucking on ice all day helped...and hard candies...I bought a giant bag of dum dums and would have a few throughout the day.

I ate so many saltine crackers and carbs in general...but everything else made me feel sick so that's what I ate

Hang in there!!!

Didn't read replies yet - I was sick all 36 weeks after bfp!

-lemonade!
-coke
-sucking sour patch kids
-lots of carbs all day long
-ginger ale was amazing!
-keeping food by the bed, in my bag, in my car, etc
-greasy food actually helped for some weird reason. Never ate more $menu items than when I was pregnant!

@evenstar982: if it eases your mind at all, my OB recommended a can or glass of coke before Tylenol for pain! Tylenol is generally recommended in pregnancy so to encourage a little caffeine before trying Tylenol helped me be ok with it

Week 8 is a particularly bad week- I think I just curled into a ball on the sofa and stayed there all that week, apart from trips to puke in the bathroom : ) The biggest tip I have is to never, ever, EVER let your stomach get empty and always stay hydrated. Just find something to eat and drink that doesn't make you hurl and keeping it by your bed and in your bag will really help. If smells set you off then carry an orange or lemon with you and sniff it when something horrible catches your nose - totally helps. In all honesty, the only thing that helped me not want to die was medication, three different types of it all at once, two of them prescription - and I was STILL puking. Most people will stop feeling sick in their second trimester though so hopefully you'll feel much better soon,

@evenstar982: What really helped me was chocolate milk! My husband got up for work between 4 and 5am and he'd bring me a small glass of chocolate milk then. I'd drink it and then when my alarm went off at 6:30 my stomach wasn't empty. It really helped! I hope that you feel better! It does get better

I was really sick to my stomach from weeks 6 - 14. Carbs helped me a lot and ginger ale. Try to not go to bed on an empty stomach... that helped me sometimes.

Sometimes just thinking about certain foods/things would make me dry heave. If I felt like I was really going to throw up, my one friend told me to think about fresh fruit! So I would talk myself down by imagining fresh strawberries, grapes, blueberries... haha sounds weird but it helped me!
