    Unhappy Morning, Noon & Night Sickness Cures?

    Well, Ive tried:
    Ginger (dry ginger ale, ginger gummi bear things)
    Dry crackers (with and without margarine)
    Toast (hot, cold, with marg and without, with vegemite and without)
    Dry bread
    Fruit
    Munching raw vegies
    Water
    Tonic water
    Soda water
    Icy poles
    Maxolon
    Other m/s tablets
    Peppermints
    Fruit tingles
    Sleep
    Eating lots of tiny meals throughout the day and night
    plus other things that I have forgotten and I still feel sick.
    I have managed not to vomit yet this pg, but its all I did in my last pg. So, last pg I put on no weight, and soon got sick of everyone telling me how fabulous I looked. Yeah right. I enjoy being a pale shade of green all the time! Whilst I haven't vomited yet, I constantly feel like I am about to.
    I'm not all that far along in this pg, and am totally jack of feeling sick already. Last night we had sausages (garlic and pork !) and vegies. It was okay, but I spent the evening (and night waiting for it to come back up). Then, my darling little girl woke at 2am, I picked her up and she burped right in my face. Oh god, the smell! Rancid garlic pork sausage smell! I nearly vomited on the spot (and feel like I am about to right now just thinking about it!). So I managed to settle her quickly and put her down again, then ran to the loo to vomit. But, nothing. Instead, I got so hot, which was just really weird considering how cold it was (especially in the loo) and I only had a t-shirt on! I had to pull my t-shirt off quick, I don't remember ever feeling like that. It was really awful! I eventually went back to bed (stayed in the loo while baby girl was grizzling again, but she settled herself, thankfully) and lay uncovered for ages, still really hot. When I woke later in the morning, the Man was covering me up so that my back was covered, as I usually complain if it isn't, but I was quite happy still being uncovered. And it wasn't even that warm in our bedroom. What the hell is wrong with me?
    And does anyone have some other morning sickness cures?
    All I have being wanting to eat lately is chicken (mainly red rooster/charcoal chicken, especially zinger burgers), hot chips and pizza. I never ate 'badly' like this with the first.
    I am finding it quite depressing to be feeling this sick all of the time. I know I have managed before, but this time I have had enough. To be always on the verge of vomiting is too much. I think it is worse than actually vomiting. I do not want another baby after this. And yes, I know, they are all different, and maybe the next would be plain sailing, but I"m not interested in finding out. Neither of my pg's have been that soppy glowing loving time. GRRR. Not happy.
    Sorry for the vent too.

    I was like that when pg with my first daughter. It was awful. Nothing at all would work. When I was pg with my second, I started getting m/s real bad, and my dr was able to give me something for it, which worked. Fortunately I only had it for a few weeks.

    I was eating green apples last night. All they did was make me burp the flavour of the sausages! Had one before, and it didnt do anything either.
    For my last pg, I went to the dr (a different one to this time), and the only thing I haven't tried that he suggested is vitamin b (I think) injections, which help you feel better for only about 8 hours. Yep. Right. Thanks, not a chance! Considering I'm petrified of needles!
    Last week when I went to the chemist for pg vitamins, the pharmacist said that ms was a good thing, and meant my body was doing all the right things, so try to take some comfort in knowing that. By the way, in case no one could tell, the pharmacist was a man!
    I guess I will try this dr I am seeing again, to see if he can recomend something else. He gave me maxolon, even though I didn't think it would help.

    I can't remember what it was, but my dr was able to prescribe me some medication to take which was safe during pg. And it worked a treat. Other than medication, you could also try accupuncture? It apparently helps, although at the time I had it, I didn't know about it.

    I had TERRIBLE ALL day sickness for first 12 weeks and I tried eveything too - I finally went to the chemist and they gave me Blackmores Morning Sickness tabs and they work a treat!! I would recomend trying them.
    I am now 13w and 2 days and I only get MS evey second morning now - alltho I vomit now and i didnt b4 but after the first 20 mins ut of bed and a quick vomit I am pretty good all day. There is still smells and foods that I cant stand and make me feel sick but all in all alot better.
    I recomend oranges, savoys and hot chips and sauce!
    Hope something helps!

    I went to the homeopath this arvo, and got some nux vomica (I think! ) and some tiny little chinese medicine tablets. THey should help, and the homeopath felt really sorry for me, especially after I told him about how sick I was for the whole of my last pg.
    Well, we will see if this magic stuff works (I hope it does ). I'll let you all know in a few days when its had time to do its thing. I'm not feeling real good at the moment, but I think I may have eaten too much at dinner.

    I am so unhappy. The homeopathic potion and pills are not working. The sea bands are not working. In fact, yesterday I took nothing for m/s and felt the same as when I was taking everything. Each of the two days before that, I vomitted terribly in the evenings, it was really painful. Yesterday I even had these funny marks (still) from the little beady things on the sea bands, even though I had taken them off the day before.
    I went to go and see the homeopath last night, as on Fridays he is only open between 4 and 7pm. I waited until 4.30, but he never opened his store. I even rang his landline, and just went through to the answering machine. I am pretty sure that he should have been open already this morning, and I have not heard from him. I don't think I will bother going to see him. It will only cost me money for more than likely no positive result. Last time he did not charge me a consultation fee, of which the first is $70-odd, and the subsequent $30-$40, plus any medications.
    Well, maybe taking nothing and feeling the same means that it is passing ( please!), even though I tried to bring up this morning's breakfast.
    I am so sick of feeling like this, and so is my Man. He is being very patient, but I am being very distant.
    Oh yes, I have been having mandarins, and I can't say if they have been working, but they have been really nice. Until the ones Ibought yesterday. They are really ordinary. Actually, not nice at all. I went to a different grocers. Dammit. I now have a whole bag of hard, not sweet mandarins to eat!
