Morning Sickness

What are some ways to get rid of morning sickness...or help? If only felt nauseous (not to jinx it) but for over a week. I feel like I can't do anything or eat.  I'd like to be able to hang out with my friends, clean, cook. Ideas?

I was so sick I was in the hospital for two days because of the dehydration. I got a prescription and yes it helps but I also like to eat mints or chew minty gum! It helps with the nausea.

I couldn't even keep down medication unless it was through injection
The only thing that helped was ginger vitamins :)

Yeah, it works because your stomach is less upset if there's always a little bit of food in it. It was one of the only things that helped me because I definitely couldn't eat large meals.

I use motion sickness medicine. You can get 8 tablets for a dollar at the dollar store. I take two in the morning with some Gatorade and can usually get something small down within the first half hour of taking it.

Honestly, there's no surefire thing you can do. My morning sickness was so bad I almost thought I was going to lose my job because I was constantly over the toilet. I couldn't eat anything and I lost weight. But you can let your doctor know and get a prescription for Diclectin. Also, try ginger (in a tea, or candy etc) It also helps to eat small snacks very frequently, and always keep a snack like crackers beside your bed to eat before you get up
