Re: All day long NAUSEA - Please help!

[Guest guest]

I have read on the group from those that have suffered naseau and from what I

have gathered it is better to eat small amounts of food throughout the day.

When I had it I lived on crackers, anykind of them and it helped tremendously.

I sure hope this passes for you. I was blessed to only have it about 3 weeks

and then NOTHING, I did not even feel prego, it was actually scary. I am now

almost 15 weeks and feel the baby move a bit so I feel better Good Luck to

you and I hope something works for you.

I too am 9 months post op and 8 weeks pregnant. I am so nauseous all day long.

It's so miserable. I was like that with my other 2, but worse. I have not

thrown up yet, but have come super close many times. I take Phenergan and

Zantac to help me get through the day.

I would experiment with the Phenergan. If you're not used to taking it, it can

be pretty strong. I would start with a half of a pill and take it first thing

in the AM then go back to bed and let it kick in before getting up and moving

around. Just do whatever makes you feel better. The Phenergan suppositories

just don't work as well for me.

Try and drink whatever you can. That's the roughest part for me. My water

consumption has halved since pregnancy because I just can't get it down with all

the nausea. I really worry about that. I shave ice and eat it that way. And I

try and eat ice chips.

Good luck and hang in there. You're not alone!

Thank you so much for your reply. I just felt " good " enough to get

a shower and run to Walmart to pick up my Rx for Phenergan. My PCP

wrote me a RX for the liquid so I smelled it first to make sure it

didn't smell of syrupy sugar and then let her fill it. It really is

a generic. The pharmacist told me it would make me sleepy - that's

one reason my PCP wrote the liquid so I could work with different

doses and see how it will work. ANYTHING HAS TO BE BETTER THAN THIS

NAUSEA!!! I'm also not throwing up but I haven't pushed anything

either.

Glad to know that there are SEVERAL of us on here that are in the

same boat. I was just wondering if the gastric bypass surgery had

made me be nauseous all day but I'm hoping it's just that the baby

will be a girl as I already have a boy. The surgery does make

it harder to eat certain things you may crave for fear of dumping.

I'm also wanting to eat the craziest foods! I've looked all over

for Garlic pickles. Bought some pickled okra while ago and the list

goes on and on. I remember with my first pregnancy that the little

cheeseburgers from Mcs were one of the only foods that would

settle my stomach. Chocolate milk also helped but those just are

not on my life after gastric bypass diet now. I have done the low

carb chocolate milk but it gave me pretty bad gas - I have enough

problems without that right now! LOL

Now, this subject I could write a book on! I am one of the unlucky

very few that has what is called hyperemesis gravidarium ( a severe

form of morning sickness). It was completely diasabling for the

first 3 months. I am 37 weeks now and still on meds so I am not

wretching everday. I was sick with my first child everyday as well,

but could just puke and get on with life. Now, with re-routed

plumbing I can't throw up and you just feel pukish all day. There's

an article on this condition in the Feb. issue of ePregnancy

magazine. I hope for your sake that's not what you have. I tried

all the home remedies that could be tried. I ended up on Zofran and

Reglan.....now just on one Zofran every morning. I wish you luck in

finding relief.

Hi there ,

Zofran has been a life saver for me. I was flat on my back for the

first 3 months. I was hospitalized 3x's for dehydration, etc. Then,

we found the right combo of drugs for me. I'm down to only one

Zofran every morning and it's made all the difference in the world.
