Sages - no drip. I do take the zofran before I get out of bed, while I'm having my cuppa tea and biscuits - then another in the afternoon. I usually don't vomit now until I get to work (the drive to work and walk in there makes me nauseated plus plus)
Peanutterr I'm exhausted so I have been getting more sleep then I ever have. I'm in bed by 8, asleep by 830-9. Wake up at 6 (plus a few times during the night to pee). I do have a number for accupunture but because I work full time it's hard to find time to make an appointment
Thanks Cheshire xox
Lying in bed at the moment - can feel my stomach up in my throat.... Need to get up and go to work and can just feel today is going to suck
I completely get what you mean with the acupuncture - I was the same. I got the number, I called to find time when they are open, but it wasn't doable with full time work
Sounds like you are doing everything you can to help yourself. I always used to split my dose too.
This may not be helpful to you at all, but I found that my HG was more managable with 2nd and 3rd as I wasn't working in paid employment. The drive to train station followed by train trip was a shocker for me. Sometimes I would push myself to get to the train station, only to then vomit in the car and again on the train station, and at that point I would turn around and go home. I ended up taking about 6 weeks leave from work, I know not an option for everyone but we were able to manage financially. Avoiding motion was key for me, including not unstacking the dishwasher, not turning my head too much etc.
Anyway, many hugs to you and yay for a better day!
I totally feel your pain. I had HG for 20 weeks this time, and even on zofran there were days I would literally throw up all morning and just go back to bed cause the day was impossible.
I truly feel for you - I could barely look after myself, let alone DD and partner.
Do whatever it is you need to, just to get through the day.
I'm 33 weeks now and still struggle to eat much at all and still feel nauseous most days, but haven't throw up much since about week 24.
I still live on salad biscuits and orange juice, the two things I can stomach most days.
And I tried every single trick in the book and not a thing worked (except the zofran was the most helpful thing. Gotta love paying that kind of money for almost 6 months!)
I remember days where I'd be sitting on the edge of the bath, throwing up in the toilet with a zofran tablet in my hand but couldn't stop throwing up long enough to get the zofran in.
It really sucks. Sending you love x
You poor thing, i remember this well even just thinking about food was enough to make me sick, its awful! Nothing works but i found eating belvita breakfast biscuits before getting up helped a little (at least there is something to throw up when you stand up ) and hydralite ice poles. Other than that i have no suggestions, i hope it eases for you soon! Big hugs xxxxxxxxx
Hi Cat,
This is Danie from the April due date thread..
Gosh I am so sorry you are having such a horrible time with all day sickness..
Maybe its worth taking a sick day from work so you can give the acupuncture a go?
