i had really awful morning sickness this pregnancy. i didnt enjoy eating or feel hungry at all for ages. but the one thing that my midwives kept drumming into me, was protein! so every morning i would hardboil an egg and eat that as quickly as possible. i also got hard cheddar cheese and would force down slices of that when i could during the day. mushrooms i could also do when they were sliced and gently fried (easy to shove in and swallow).
I also went to a health food store and bought high quality ginger tablets and took 3 of those a day as well as a plant/food based prenatal (but not sure if you can get them here in OZ...i was in the US at that time and so brought back supplies!), but is worth checking out as when i made the switch i swear that it helped!
also did the seabands on the wrists. never took them off for the whole time that i felt rotten (and they did help in taking the edge off).
i really feel for you, it was the pits and in the US it was impossible to get your hands on any anti-nausea meds lol. i even begged but nup, nada, zip, zilch lol wouldnt give me anything lol.
I hope you feel better soon. I have been getting a 1.5 litre of bottled water, and chilling it, then adding the juice of 1 lemon. I find it refreshing, and nutrtious and I am drinking more water than normal. Also peeing more than normal....but I had bad MS with the beginning of this one, and ginger ale, and ginger beer helped. Also sugar.....fairy floss, sour lollies, bubble gum too...but was craving sweet sweet things too lol.......
