Im almost 20 weeks.. Im on neasua meds and STILL sick a couple days a week. Preg pops dont work, vitamin b6, craxkers 7up none of that works. I found that vitamin water helps and peppermint candies do for as long as they last. Then it comes back. Iv tried soo many things and still sick. Its horrible. Iv been miserable :(

24 wks, it's gotten much better.  I was able to go off the zofran at 22 wks--TG! Now I'm only yakking 2-3 x/wk--usu in the am. and I can eat most things.  For nausea lifesavers work sometimes instead of the p pops. (Those were getting expensive and I didn't like half of them) Nights are bad with gas pain so I've been drinking peppermint tea.

I had horrible all day morning sickness. It started before I even had a positive test. It stopped at week 20. But...it seems to be coming back. I'm 28 weeks today. The meds just gave me.a headache.  I tried small meals. Crackers. Pretzels.  Water. Flavored water. Gatorade. Ginger tea. Ginger candy. Ginger gum. Peppermint stuff. Cinnamon stuff...the ******* pops drops actually helped.

What Helps Me Is I Eat Crackers, And Alot.... Drink 7up Or Sprite .. You Can Have 16oz A Day, Make Sure Your Drinkinq A lot Of Water!! I Drank Ice Cold.
And I'd Have Rolaids On Me At ALL Times. Like I Seriously Ate Them Like Candy But They DO Help! And They Are Sooooo Much Better Then Tums.

I don't know why it came up starred out. Maybe I can't use brand names in here. The last suggestion was pregnancy pops

I've at 27 weeks and the nausea hasn't gone away. I have been using sea bands. They worked for several weeks enough that I could eat. Now I'm trying vitamin B6. It hasn't done much for me but works for some women. They suggest you take it with unisom which will make you sleepy and some women don't want to take unisom while pregnant so ask your Dr about that. The sea bands work on pressure points though. No medication so they're safe. Also, I found ******* pops worked for short periods of nausea.

I was the same but at 20 wks it started to get a bit better. Now at 25 i have a system. I eat a little just b4 bed and have toast or an eggo waffle as soon as i wake. And i eat every 2-3 hrs and drink lots of water. Gingerale seems to help when i feel the sickness come on. Hope u start to feel better theres nother worse than feeling this way while pg it wears u down and makes u wanna lay down all day!

Unfortunately for some women it never goes away...my sister in law had to be hospitalized and the dr had to feed her and the baby with an IV...I'm sorry you're going through this :(
