Question for Working Expectant Mothers

I'm in my first trimester, I'm currently 8weeks 5 days pregnant. I experience nausea a lot throughout the day and I have an spitting habit. I recently accepted a new job offer. Now I worry about being overwhelmed by my nausea while working. Are there any nausea and vomiting meds that I can request for a prescription from my doctor that could help me other than Zofran?

Diclectin works great! It makes you sleepy though.

I've had it bad this time round and lemon water helps a lot. That and fresh ginger can help but it's best in a tea. Boil water and pour over fresh ginger and let steep for 5 min then sip away. Also protien, I know it sounds wired but my dr has me snaking on protien all day (like a slice of cheese or handful of nuts) it keeps the nausea down.

Also try half a unisom and 50Mg of B6. Extra rest helps and B6 helps your stomach. I found just the B6 helps a little if you don't want to take unisom.

Diclegis helped me A LOT. I tried the pops as well but feel like it was mainly the Diclegis. I had it bad in the beginning. Definately worth a try.

I had it so bad that I ended up taking zofran, but I only took it on the days it was soooo b ad. Ginger ale and anything with salt see mean to help.
