Aunty e Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 How awful! That wretched woman should be forced to throw up non-stop for nine months and see how she likes it. I heard good things about those acupressure bands, but sounds like you should try and see another doctor to me. I'm trying to stop wishing E Coli on that doctor, but it's hard.

Thanks for that really made me laugh! A friend of mine has lent me some bands - I keep forgetting to try them !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 A friend of mine has lent me some bands - I keep forgetting to try them !!! Give 'em a whirl. They do help, but take a day or two to get going properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I sympathise - I used to get evening sickness as well! Fine all morning then queasy from lunchtime onwards (never actually threw up though thank goodness, was never that bad). Hated cooking tea for the family though Do give the bands a go. My sickness got worse with each pregnancy, by 14 weeks with no 3 I decided to give them a go, but the sickness went after that so never really used them properly. I was very fortunate! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen & co. Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 A friend of mine has lent me some bands - I keep forgetting to try them !!! Give 'em a whirl. They do help, but take a day or two to get going properly. Definately try them I took part in a survey while pregnant with YD as I had been so ill with all the others and had stick on plasters with a type of button on the inside to wear throughout the feeling nauseated stage (ie all the time ) they were based on the sickness bands and worked really well. I may have a couple left if you would like them? they say change them daily but mine survived the shower etc. and lasted about 3 or 4 days.

Egluntyne Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Do persevere......I found that it took a few days. Doesn't cure it totally, but certainly took the edge off it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogs and chickens Posted September 6, 2008 Author Share Posted September 6, 2008 Have not kept one thing down today and I'm sooo hungrey and the water works have opened up today as well and I can't stop crying .

Looney Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 Poor you Have a few virtual (((((hugs))))) from me Let those tears roll, no point holding back! It's horrible feeling rotten and not being able to do anything that makes it better...the end result will be worth it and you won't feel rotten forever. How about a nice relaxing bath? Have you tried sucking sweets? Can you stomach those? (sorry if that has just turned your stomach at the thought!) Take care, thinking of you xxxxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogs and chickens Posted September 8, 2008 Author Share Posted September 8, 2008 Thanks for the hugs Looney. I could do with some TLC at the moment! Baths do help, hubby gets quite fed up as I have been having baths that are two hours long! But I feel better in the bath so I stay there and read a book! I have stopped using the bands as they did not seem to make and difference. I feel really hungrey this evening but also really sick so another night of no food again. I guess I will be looseing another 1.5 stone in this pregnancy too ! Mx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Thats really fab about your pregnancy - congratulations! Sorry to hear about your husbands job hopefully the situation will sort itself out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 I'm so sorry you are feeling so poorly. I felt nauseous for about 5 months with my 1st, in fact we had to come home early from holiday in France as I couldn't find anything to eat that I could actually think about eating, was sick a couple of times with the 2nd and then really sick with the last one. It is awful when you're supposed to be enjoying your pregnancy to feel so awful. Nothing really ever worked with me so I can't come up with any great ideas. Sorry. Hopefully it will wear off soon.
