Morning "All Day" Sickness

[hgb1111]

I am 11 1/2 weeks and I am expierencing some grusome Morning Sickness all day long.  Had my 1st appointment on Monday 2/28 and my doctor perscribed me Reglan 10mg.  I was warned by a friend not to take it, without doing some research.  

Does anyone have a opinion/story or input to give me on Reglan 10mg?

From my reading of baby books they use reglan in the most severe cases where you can't keep anything down.  I work in pharmacy and we do not have declectin...so maybe it is outside the country.  Zofran and promethazine are some of the drugs of choice here and are safe...otherwise I wouldn't be taking them!  I hope your morning sickness gets better soon.  I know that mine has been so bad that I have lost 10 pounds in 10 weeks.  We will get there soon!

I also had horrible morning sickness all day everyday for the first 6 months then i was actually able to keep food down but all thx to zofran... it is very safe and it works miracles... i heard something about reglan causing some side effects so i would def do some research... but just to be sure i would def get zofran instead...

There is only 1 prescription medication that is 100% safe to take during pregnancy for morning sickness & it is diclectin.  The good news is morning sickness usually goes away around weeks 12-14 so fingers crossed it does for u.  With my last pregnancy & this current 1 I've had severe nausea right from the beginning around 6 weeks right uop til delivery.  It's VERY hard to keep anything down, but no matter what u have to keep trying.  Make meals smaller, more frequent, less heavy & bland.  Avoid foods when it's hot, as this will aggravate it as well.  I found koolaid lemon lime slushies helped me get some calories as I was unable to even keep water down at some points.  

I'd mention diclectin to ur Dr & see what he says.

Good luck & I hope you get some relief soon.  Please post an update when u have news.  If you want more info on diclectin or morning sickness feel free to message me.

Most doctors won't give reglan to pregnant women zofran is safer I would talk to your doctor about this
