I'm so sick! WTF

So this is my second pregnancy. My first was a breeze and I had no complications at all. This one.....I'm sick all day, I have frequent headaches, and I'm super fatigued. I've tired ginger candies, teas, and ale and nothing is working. Saltines isn't working nothing is. On top of that I can barely eat. I've lost 10lbs since I found out and it's freaking me out. I have a doctors appt on the 21st. Hoping i can get some type of relief. Help!!!

I feel your pain. Me too!!! Search bands didn't help me much. I had to get a prescription and now I can actually keep food down. I'm still a lil weazy at times but it has helped a lot! Hope u find your solution mama....

I am in the exact same situation! I've been back and forth to the doctors and I was recently prescribed zofran after trying everything else- and this has stopped me vomiting! I still get nausea but it's not as bad now with the zofran. Talk to your doctor and maybe try it.

Theu reckon the sicker you are the helathier the pregnancy  ;) This is my 3rd and everything you have described is me plus every single pregnancy so i can definitely sympathise, unfortunately nothing really does help. For me, even prescribed tablets didn't help one bit. I just take it day by day and ride the roller coaster, hopefully it stops at some point for you but for me its from day 1 until delivery and even then im still a mess so sick it ***** thats for sure.

Just FYI.. Sea Bands are little sweatbands you wear on your wrists. They have a plastic bead that presses on your acupuncture pressure point on the inside of your wrist. There are easy instructions to help you find exact point. I wear mine about 24/7, except when I shower and I take them off for about 15 mins every few hours just to let my wrists breathe. But they're soooo worth it!! Haven't felt sick once since I bought them three days ago. And no I'm not a paid spokesperson lol

Try Sea Bands!! I know it sounds silly but I'm serious. I've had so many mom's swear by them and now I know why. They look kinda goofy-cute and are a lifesaver. I had bad morning sickness too and ever since I started wearing sea bands I've felt normal again. I literally used to just sip Sprite, and dip saltines into chicken broth. Now I can eat whatever, WHENEVER. I bought mine at CVS but I think they're also available at most drug stores and Walmart.
