HIMGODDESS Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 as mentioned earlier i had small travel sickness tablets from jessops, i was also on a drip, the good thing was they told me for every day i was on a drip i had to have a week off work, so i got 6 weeks off, which would have been great had my head not still been down the loo, but not as bad as b4 the tablets! you cant understand how a small baby will be ok when the first weeks/months of its life in yr belly is so traumatic for the poor mother!! it DOES get better tho, then theres only the heartburn to deal with!!

Bless you! You have my complete sympathy love. I was exactly the same with baby no. 2. It was awful. Anything and everything would set me off - the times I've had to get off the bus on the way to work for fear of being sick! My doctor and midwife both said there was nothing I could take to stop it and that it wear off eventually! And it did at around 14/15 weeks although I still couldn't bear 'nice' smells like washing powder, perfume, air freshener etc. (still funny about washing powder - 2 years on! but that could be psychological). I found sipping ice cold lemonade helped (as daft as it sounds) ginger did nothing apart from make me worse! I also found I felt worse when hungry (which seemed to be most of the time) so eating little and often helped as well. Keep smiling love, you'll soon be over it and be able to enjoy your pregnancy! Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flutterbyes Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 i suffered emmensly with it, borderline in the hospital jobby! every time i went to the gp they all had a different opionion. work were breathing down my neck etc etc i tried everything!! the only medication my gp would prescribe was promethazine, it didnt work, i tried ginger, the anti-sickness travel bands, everything!! the only thing i could suggest is plenty of rest, been stressed about work makes it worse! trust me!!! have as much time as you need off work, the gp will write you a note as there is nothing much they can do, they tell you to plod on... try to keep having water, even if you can't face it. your little baby will be getting everything that she needs from you, regardless of what you eat, they are like little parasites!!! im 29 weeks and still feeling sick in a morning. as soon as i wake up the acid/god knows what in my stomach comes up!

Raychul69 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I know it will be worth it but oh god I feel pooh. I'm 16 weeks now and still being sick like a good un When I was only a few weeks everyone kept saying, don't worry it will pass at about 12 weeks so I was focusing on getting past that stage but now I'm nearly 5 weeks past it and it's not getting any better. Are there any old wives tales on what it can mean if you have 24 hour sickness during pregnancy ALL THE WAY THROUGH Sorry to whinge but please tell me I'm not the only one on here suffering like this.

gina2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I never had morning sickness, must be lucky! But i've heard a few people saying they had sickness throughout pregnancy. And got advised to keep drinking water to keep them hydrated. Speak to your midwife hun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honeyb35 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I had sickness all the way through with my first (sorry!) I dont know if its an old wives tale that the sicker you are the more likely it is to be a girl? Lol! I hardly had it with my son, just a bit of nausea in the first few weeks...!
