    Default I feel like I'm back from the dead! :)

    Thanks to Seabands and ginger gum. Phew. Last week was rough. Have you guys tried Seabands before for nausea? Did they work for you?

    I had them when I was pregnant with Hannah but they didn't work for me. I'm glad you're getting relief from them!

    I haven't tried seabands but I want to get some soon! I'm so glad they're working well for you. Where did you get the ginger gum?

    I bought my seabands at Walmart for about 8$, they helped for a week or so but then they didn't anymore. So I tried seabands and ginger gum (from rite aid) and that helped for a bit but the ginger gum is super expensive so I only bought 1 pack. I think I toughed through it for a few weeks before I finally convinced my doctor that I couldn't possibly continue to be non-functioning like this because of ms and they put me on Zofran. That helped tons for awhile but I still have days where even that won't help me get out of my funk. Motherhood Maternity sells preggie pops, I heard they help alot but I haven't tried them yet.

    I'm glad the seabands worked for you and I hope they continue to do so!

    I tried both of those. The ginger gum helped some but now I can't even fathom the taste of the gum and I have a half a box left. Tried the sea bands at work and didn't really help and of course I got questions the day I wore them.

    I don't have much m/s with this pregnancy, but I have tried preggie pops with the others and I thought that they helped quite a bit! I also drank ginger ale and saltines in the mornings. Glad some of you are able to get some relief from the m/s, hope we can all sail through this first tri quickly!!
