My parents gave me that as a child to make me sleep on car journeys..... and when they were going out and didnt want us kids waking up for the babysitter.

Some form of child abuse methinks :) hehe

You're so welcome.  I am so sorry.  I know how awful it is.  It seems like it will never end.  I get so sick when I brush my teeth that I have actually peed on myself just from straining so hard while throwing up.  Brushing my teeth does it everytime.  Oh, and the brand of that tea is called The Republic of Tea.  I looked when I got home from work.

I started out taking that and it did nothing for me.  I did have extreme nausea and vomiting though, my OB ended giving me both Zofran and Tigan and taking that around the clock helped somewhat.

Before the presciption meds though I tried everything I heard of from peppermint, ginger, cola syrup, lemon candy, the sea bands... everything!!!

Good luck!

I took it and it worked a little but it did not take it all away for me but I have seen posts from other who said it was a miracle drug for them.  One thing that helped me some was peach/ginger tea.  It's really good and it will help settle your stomach some.  You won't find it with the regular teas though.  If you go to a big store, they will probably have a section for specialty teas.  It may be close to the coffee.  I found it at a store called H-E-B. but I think those are only in Texas.  It will probably really help you.  I strongly suggest the tea.  There is also something out there called prego pops.  They're suckers for pregnant women made for the morning sickness.  I can't testify to these because I didn't find out about them until I was past that point of my last pregnancy but I would sure try it if I was pregnant right now.  Oh, and pepermint ice cream.  That helped my stomach too.  This time last year I was miserable sick (pregnant).  And the ice cream helped me.  Blue Bell makes it for the holidays.  You can also get it at ice cream stores such as Baskin Robins, Marble Slab, etc.  Best of luck!!  I know it's awful.
