Guest guest Posted June 11, 2002 Report Share Posted June 11, 2002 Hello all My daughter's pregnancy is going well at the moment (thanks for all your thoughts) but she is having terrible sickness. Not just a feeling of nausea in the mornings, but more or less all day, and often can't face eating, and often actually being sick, not just feeling sick. Some suggestions please from those of you who have recently been there! or can remember further back, would be appreciated Regards Ann - Scotland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 11, 2002 Report Share Posted June 11, 2002 Hi Ann, I'm no help with this one. I had morning, noon and night sickness for 3 months with my son. Hate to say it but nothing helped that out for me except the departure of my first trimester and the arrival of the second trimester. It was so bad I used to drink berry smoothies for lunch just cause it'd taste good coming back up (which inevitably all meals would ; ). They told me that severe morning sickness is the sign of a strong, healthy pregnancy .. may the " old wives tales " be correct! Big (gentle) hugs to her! *Hugs* Chris Ann Thorpe wrote: >Hello all >My daughter's pregnancy is going well at the moment (thanks for all your thoughts) but she is having terrible sickness.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2002 Report Share Posted June 11, 2002 Good morning Ann: I can certainly feel for your daughter cuz with my second one I was sick the whole time. Had to have surgery when I was about 3 months and was sick, sick the rest of the pregnancy. This being many years ago, I do remember eating soda crackers before I ever got out of bed, but can't remember if it helped or not. So sorry she is having such a problem. Tell her to hang in there--it is temporary and worth it. Blessings and love, Effie Ann Thorpe <Ann Tuesday, June 11, 2002 12:50 AM morning - no all day sickness! >Hello all >My daughter's pregnancy is going well at the moment (thanks for all your thoughts) but she is having terrible sickness.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2002 Report Share Posted June 11, 2002 Hugs to your daughter. I was a fortunate one who didn't have morning sickness, but my friends who did swore by " sea bands " they are the bands you put on your wrist to combat motion sickness. Also ginger seemed to help calm her tummy. I wish your daughter a happy and healthy pregnancy!

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2002 Report Share Posted June 11, 2002 Ann, ginger tea should help, or sucking on ginger candy. Soda Crackers, 7-up, ginger ale. weak peppermint tea.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2002 Report Share Posted June 11, 2002 >I do remember >eating soda crackers before I ever got out of bed, but can't remember if it >helped or not. I did this too recently. It did help and I also kept a little can of pink grapefruit juice to sip on. Weird, but a gal I worked with (native american) told me about it, said it worked. It did for me. I nursed the juice though. Tiny sips and more crackers than juice. Hope she gets over that part real soon and has a very healthy pregnancy!
