morning sickness/:!

I was sick as a dog in my first tri. Horrible! Nauseus 24/7(although I never puked) and had dihareah alot too from about 5 weeks to 12 weeks. I did find out I am having a girl, so maybe you will too! lol! I hope you feel better soon!

I've gotten it with all of mine- not fun!  I hope you are feeling better soon!  Here's a few little tips I've tried along the way, some of them worked, some of them didn't- and I've noticed that something different works for each person, so it's just a trial and error thing!  Good luck!

Eating small meals throughout the day instead of three big ones
Have some crackers or a snack by your bed, so when you get up you can put something in your tunmmy right away
Sliced apples
Slicing lemons (the smell helps some)
Motion sickness bracelets
Ginger- anything with ginger root in it, even ginger ale
Peppermint (even try some peppermint tea)
Vitamin B6
Don't have fluids and meals together
Make sure you are drinking lots of water, you need to stay hydrated or it will make it worse
Eat things high in protein and complex carbs
Don't rush around in the mornings- that can make it worse
Stay away from stress as much as possible
Slurpees, or icees... When it gets really bad they help... and they are not hard on you coming back up.
Think about the flavor of your toothpaste and switch if it is contributing to making you nauseous
Get plenty of sleep
Avoid sugar and fatty foods
Ask your doctor about switching to a prenatal vitamin with a lower amount of iron for your 1st trimester

Where do I find these at?? =)

I have been consistantly sick throughout my pregnancy (I'm 20 weeks now). It's eased up a bit, but not a whole lot. I'm no longer throwing up, just nauseous. I'm having a boy though so who knows what these old wives tales are good for! xD
