Anyone Successfully use chinese herbs/medicine for Morning Sickness?

Ginger tablets, accupuncture and the couch were my friend. That and dry salada bikkies at work with lots of water. (and flat shoes that can easily be slid off for a quick mad dash to the loo when you do gotta hurl!!)

Hi Salad,
I'm not sure about chinese medicine, but i have been taking blackmores morning sickness tablets, not sure if there working, but am starting to feel better. i didnt have any ms with ds so it was a shock for me to get it this time! and like you said it so hard with a little one, but somehow you just have to get on with it for there sake, ds has actually been a good distraction!
just plenty of crackers, ginger beer and sleep when there sleeping, thats what ive been doing.

sorry i havent actually answered your question...i hope someone else can be of more help

I regularly saw a naturopath who gave me some really good stuff to take- I Can't remember the name of it, but it really helped me.
PM me if you need more info, I can always ring the naturopath.
I know what you mean about the icy poles!!!

Salad, go hunt down yourself a good naturopath, you won't regret it! I will often see mine before my GP.
I wouldn't recommend taking herbs/chinese meds until you have spoken to someone that knows what they're talking about.

Hi everyone thanks for your replies - when I say chinese medicine herbs I mean prescribed by naturopath or chinese herbalist I would never ever take anything without consulting someone first. I am planning on seeing a local chinese herbalist here before we try for our next bub as I strongly believed it helped us last time. I was just curious if anyone had been prescribed anything and if it had worked. I tried blackmores ms tablets last time and it was difficult for me to take them, maybe the trick is to start taking them before I get the morning sickness what do others think??

It probably wouldn't hurt (ask a chemist though haha, i don't have medical certificates)? Get them built up in your system before the bad stuff hits!
