Im a first time mom and I keep throwing up. I just got sick and now my throat is burning and it also feels swollen. It even hurts to swallow! Idk what to do. Im sure its really sore from stomach acid, but is there anything to relieve this lain and the nausea feeling? Im going to see about getting in with a midwife tomorrow, but I could use any advise to help comfort my throat and nausea. Im just so miserable right now, I want to cry! Please if you have any advise it would be great! Thanks ladies!!

Try ginger ale. I had HORRIBLE morning sickness and that was the only thihng that kind of eased it. Eat slower and more times a day but smaller meals. Don't drink as much while eating. Don't move too fast. Try crackers or toste. Preggy pops. Motion bands. Those are somethings I tryed. They didn't really work, but you would always try it. I had to get a prosciption medication and stop my prenatal vitamins. I take Zofran before I eat. It's such a life saver, honestly.

Take a few sips of coke when you feel sick! Your not supposed to drink pop but when I had morning sickness I was so sick that my doctor told me to literally eat and drink whatever I wanted because I needed the calories that bad. So I wouldn't worry about drinking caffeine if I were you. And, coke always worked for me :)

Try and snack frequently. Crackers and ginger ale even if you don't feel like eating. As for your throat suck on a lemon they are really good for sore throats.
