Does anyone here take any medication for morning sickness? Since i can't keep anything down my doctor gave me Zofran to take... let me know ladies. I just need someone i can relate with since it's so hard for me.

Many of my friends have been taking something called Diclectin. It works for most of them.

The meds that i'm taking makes my head spin and i can't help but just lay down on bed and sleep. I guess were the same then, i just hope the weeks can fly by fast so that this morning sickness can go away. I can't even do anything, i feel so hopeless. I hope ur better than me because morning sickness really is terrible.....

Well I fixed the zombie problem! So the prescription says to take 1/2 a pill to a whole pill every 6 hrs...well I found that I can only handle 1/4 of a pill...and as long as I take them regularly (no more than 1 whole pill every 6 hrs though) I do really well! No sickness and just a little tired! I just had to go with a trial and error type thing (started with a whole pill every 6 hrs and went down from there)...even a 1/2 a pill is too much..which surprised me b/c they are SO tiny! taking 1/4 makes me laugh cuz its like I'm taking nothing but it helps SO much! I hope you start feeling better! Also something else that helps is I'm constantly eating..nothing too big..it helps! If I get hungry at all I start to feel sick again even with the meds!

I heard that Zofran is suppose to help. I took Phenagrin with my son, but it just mainly made me sleepy. Peppermint candy really helped with my nausea, someone mentioned that to me on one of the forum's and it did work. I constantly had to suck on hard candy for weeks, lemon drops helped also. I hope the nausea gets better, I wish the sickness didn't have to come with pregnancy.good luck
