Grocery shopping w/ nausea

I can't even think about stepping foot into a grocery store because of how sick I feel! I don't currently work so I do the shopping and cooking. Any tips on how to get over the nausea long enough to shop and cook my husband dinner? Thanks :-)

I had a peppermint candy and helped a lot while at the grocery store. Once that candy dissolved, nausea came back with a vengeance and I had to leave the store as fast as I could. I should pack a lot of peppermint candies if I'm out and about. Poor hubs, I haven't been cooking for him since everything smells foul.

Thanks everyone! I have zofran but I'm doing my best not to use it because I don't really like taking medication during pregnancy but I might just have to!

Omg same here I was in Publix this morning and was only able to get 3 items off my super long list. I called the dr and he's calling me a rx in.

I know how both you feel ! I'm a assistant manager in the shoe store called champs sports and I went to another town to help set up the new store that's opening this weekend and felt nauseous all day ! They ordered everyone pizza , I had one bite then threw up up everything I ate I thew it up or felt like I was going throw it up ! So I went to target near. By and got some pineapples and a bottle of water . After I ate that and drunk my water a sat for a few minutes and was good . I also noticed when sit straight up or when I stand and walk around to eat or do anything I feel really nauseous as well but those pineapples really worked but that and all the liquids I drank had me in the bathroom all day it's starting again today

I know how you feel, had to do that today and was so annoyed at the queue. Just wanted to grab the items and go back home already. I ate a ginger biscuit on the way to the shop. Don't go to the shops feeling semi-hungry. There's not much else I can say, do pack snacks and water when you head out and know what to buy so that your time out is quick. I'm not even excited to go clothing shopping because I know it will be loads of standing around, probably long queues and a stuffy shop. Avoid this, or risk fainting, lol!
