Answer 1

Get used to it, you've got about 15 more weeks of it. Welcome to motherhood.

Answer 2

Hi honey. Bless your heart. It will get better, I hope! You have received some wonderful answers here. The only thing I would add is that I used the actual ginger capsules that they sell at health food stores. I would ask your doctor how many of them are safe to take as each doctor has different ideas. Ginger is wonderful for that.
The papaya chewable tablets are wonderful for heartburn, I have used those myself.
Remember that the key is to not let your stomach get totally empty. That is why it tends to be worse first thing in the morning. The crackers, chewed slowly before you even get out of bed are a tried and true remedy.
OH! and one thing that really did it for me were the lollypops called "Queasy-Pops" . They are wonderful. They have a website, it is www.queasypop.com I would highly recommend them. My favorite was the Green Tea with Lemon although they do come in many other flavors. These worked like magic for me, be sure to try them. I bet they will help!
The second trimester is almost always a great time during your pregnancy. Things are sure to get better. Think about your precious little baby and try to concentrate on happier things than on how miserable you feel right now. Have you been to that wonderful website www.babycenter.com? It is really great and may give you some tips to feel better. You can put in your due date and it will track your pregnancy. Take a look at it.
Cheer up you have SO much to look forward to!

10 Remedies for Pregnancy Nausea

You may have a hard time mustering the energy or enthusiasm to get organized for your baby if pregnancy symptoms such as nausea are hitting you hard. Often referred to as "morning sickness," pregnancy nausea is a very common affliction.

"Expectant mothers and their families are bracing for big changes," says Christine Zuchora-Walske, co-author of Getting Organized for Your New Baby (Meadowbrook Press). "Unfortunately, nausea can add to stress and detract from enjoyment during this exhilarating time." Fortunately, she provides some tools for combating pregnancy nausea.

If you suffer from nausea, Zuchora-Walske suggests taking careful notes throughout the day. Record your activities, your snacks and meals and how you feel. This may help you recognize patterns in your nausea and try to prevent it in the future.

If you can't seem to quell your sickness, carry a "nausea survival kit" with you at all times. This should include unscented moist towelettes, a travel-size toothbrush and toothpaste, gum or breath mints, a plastic bag and possibly a fan.

Try high-protein or high-carbohydrate snacks such as peanuts, soda crackers and granola bars. These will soak up excess stomach acid and prevent blood sugar swings that can lead to nausea.

Eat small, frequent meals to avoid having an empty or too-full stomach.

If you don't have to wake up at a set time, don't. Get as much rest as possible and ease into your day.

Carry hard candy with you. Sometimes, sucking on something tart or sweet can ease nausea.

Take vitamins with your biggest meal of the day.

Keep a damp cloth at your bedside to place over your eyes or on your forehead when you feel ill.

Exercise, preferably outdoors. The fresh air will help.

When traveling by car, be a driver instead of a passenger.

With your caregiver's permission, try a chewable antacid.

Undergo acupressure treatments or wear acupressure wristbands.

Answer 4

Aww, Sounds like you have a case of pregnancy. It sucks yes,. But untill you are around 12 weeks there is nothing you can really take besides rolaids. So i hear. Ask you DR about the heart burn. As far as nausea. Suck on some mints!!

Answer 5

Ginger is a natural remedy for nausea & heatburn - put your feet up with a nice cup of tea & a packet of ginger biscuits.x

Answer 6

When you first wake up, stay lying down for 30 mins or so. Crackers helped for one of my friends, for my mom it was scrambled eggs. There is a medication, its a gravol for pregnant women called dyflectin ( dont know if i spelled it right), but you need a doctors prescription for it.
