I just found out about two weeks ago that I am pregnant again.
Today we get to go and have an ultrasound. I am 6 1/2 weeks. Last time I had a miscarriage at 8 weeks so they are checking to make sure all is well.
I am having to take progesterone(sp) because I am at the bourder linelevel with it.
But I have been having a bad case of morning sickness. Last night was the first time I lost my dinner though and it might have been the spicy chicken, won't be doing that again. Anyways. What are some things that you ladies did to combat this? I tried crackers before I get out of bed and through the day but they upset my stomache worse. 7up and peppermints seem to be helping. And I just bought some SEABANDS at the drug store that are makining a difference. They were $10.00 but worth it to be able to deal with it.
Also what were somethings that you were/are able to eat. The only thing that I can think of without feeling sick is a Mc Donald's cheeseburger. I have 15 minutes until I can get one. It seems like forever.
Well thanks for listening.

I ate LOTS of Chicken Noodle Soup during that time....Also, chewing Spearmint gum worked & Altoids.

I also used the wrist bands and they worked for me, too.

This time the only thing that helps if I feel a little sick is lemon drops. Otherwise nothing is working, just like last time. :(

Well I was so sick the other night. I think that I puked about 15 times. Every drop that went down came back up. So I went to the dr in fear of being dehydrated(sp) and he gave me xome phenergrin(sp). It works great in the day and makes barable at night. I was normal on Monday night but last night is was back to the couch. Oh well. I guess it will be ok in the end when I have my baby.
I know about the fast food thing. That is all I have wanted to.

I was given Phenergran too but it only stopped me from throwing up as often as I was but I was still throwing up. Instead of throwing up 6 times it went down to 3, lol.
