Morning Sickness
Sunbun,
I had such a bad chase of morning sickness through my 14th week, that I felt like I was undergoing chemo-therapy combined with a champagne hangover. Not one thing did the trick...here are some things that helped me and I hope that do relieve your symptoms some. But, I've felt what your going through... I'm in my 21st week and fine now so most people were right about it lasting only during the first tri.
1. Grapefruit gatorade. Always seemed to settle me stomach whenever I started feeling nauteous. A quick swig usually worked.
2. Fruit juice (anything non-citrus, like grape or apple)
3. Honey-ginger tea sold in Korean grocery stores.
4. Mangos
5. Total Cereal, Chex Cereal, etc...with milk. They also have folic acid and are loaded with vitamins that are good for you anyway.
6. Toast with sweet jam.
7. Roast sweet potato. Pop these in the oven for about an hour and they carmelize and turn really yummy. Packed with good vitamins for bubs.
8. Live yogurt with honey.
I think the trick is to when you are sick on something, not to have that food again for a while. For me, something sweet always helped me and if I ate anything dry as suggested by the books, they were just chalky and hard to swallow.
Hope this helps. It does get better. I promise. Even though I treated myself to these sweets in the morning, I've gained average weight and it was more important to get through the first miserable weeks than watching my sugar intake.
