Have you tried ginger nut biscuits, they worked well with me! My friend also used the anti-sickness bands, the kind you get for travel sickness that you wear around your wrist. Its good to keep drinking. I hope it passes soon. I was only nauseaus from 8-10 weeks x x

Hi Faye, I had terrible sickness & dizzy spells, which only really died down to occassional sickness at 23-25 weeks.

absolutely nothing worked for me. I spent 8quid on travel band they didn't work, they were too tight on my wrist, i found them so irratating. I think the doc can prescribe tablets to help, but i heard about some horrid side effects regarding babies being born with disabilities so opted to grin & bare it. Im now 28wks, and very tired.

Hi Faye i to had morning sickness all day from week 8 to 17 and then it was about every 3 days i would have about 3 days feeling really sick and sometimes sick until aboiut 22 weeks. in the early stages i went to doctors because i couldnt keep anything down so they put me on anti sickness tablets as not only was it horrible but it was keeping me off work. the anti sickness they gave me was fine for pregnant women they said. the only problem i found with them was they made me quite dizzy and very tired to the point i had to sleep (prehaps thats why they worked because i wasnt awake to throw up lol). They did give me other tablets but the side effects for people my age (20) was a no no so just took the first lot they gave me when it was really bad.

i would suggest going to doctors. you only need to see a nurse.

i was lucky and only had 1 morning of sickness but i found if i ate a ginger biscult before i went to bed and marmite on toast in the morning helped me thoughout the day to feel better x

Hi Faye I hope that your morning sickness soon passes, it's really not nice! I'm now 27+4 weeks pregnant and still suffering with sickness and nausia, althoug it has eased from what it was. Like Leila-Kay I found that nothing works for me apart from fizzy vimto, but that soon wore off at christmas! I was however prescribed anti sickess tablets by my doc and only took them if I really needed to!
Sorry it's probably not much help but try and eat little and often and drink plenty and as I said I hope it soon passes x

hi im 9wks pregnant with my 4th child and this is the first time ive had morning sickness and its awful sick all day and nite really getting me down doctor offered me antisickness tabs but i refused have found eat tiny bits throughout the day the neausea is the worst though hope it ends soon :(

Iam 8 weeks and 5 days (had my scan yestoday) I have found Iam mainly really sick in morning and at night but it can get so bad I can't even keep water down. I have become really emotional and I'm in tears all the time. Nothing seems to work and it all repeats on me. I even retch when nothings in my stomach. I feel rubbish.... :'(

Night sickness 3am, 19wks, fed up what can I do?
