Is this too bad at this stage??

[Julia]

Hi Girls...

I have been suffering with sicknees all day every day. So someone suggested eating little and often. So today I have gone for it!!!! I have eaten:
- 2 crumpets and butter
- Sugarpuffs (cereal)
- Ham and Cheese sandwich
- Bread Roll and butter
- Piece of toast
- 6 Nuggets
- Lolly Pop

I have not felt quite soooooo bad cos I have eatten the above at regular intervals BUT: I am going to be the size of everest if I carry on like this!!! Don't know what is worse: Nausea or feeling like you have eaten like a pig!!!! Anyoine else eatting this much at the moment??

Fatty Bum Bum, Julia xxxx

Hi hun, I found it was the only way to ease sickness too, I honestly felt like I was eating all the time!! Someone even commented at work that I was eating lots (before they knew I was PG!!) I laughed it off and said that I had the munchies

Xxx

 

[Julia]

Thanks for your reply, Lindsay!

So it worked for you too? Oh well, in a couple of weeks the sickness should ease a little (by about 12 weeks i believe). I can calm down again then.

I can't remember feeling this sick when I had my little girl!! Perhaps this one is a boy??

Although your eating more often, your not eating alot! If thats what you ate all day then its not too much and I wouldnt think too many cals etc so I wouldnt worry about getting too big lol! If you ate 7 full meals or fatty crappy foods then i guess you may lol but a bowl of cereal etc isnt bad!

Lea M - You have made me feel so much better! I usually eat a healthy diet with the odd chinese noddle dish thrown in (once a week). So eating like I did today is totally unusual for me. I would hardly ever eat toast because I know it is not great for you BUT I am like a toast junky at the moment (about the only thing I can stomach!!!

You are right though - i could be eatting loads of real crap like big bars of chocolate and big homecooked dinners and sponge and custard JUST MADE MYSELF FEEL REALLY SICK THINKING ABOUT THAT!

Hello Julia Hope you are well!

I was very lucky not to have any sickness, but as I'm progressing further into my pregnancy, I'm having to eat little and often too because I'm running out of room! So, I think that eating as and when you can is brilliant, especially if you find a way where you feel better for it so go for it hun, I think you've done really well. If you weigh up roughly how much you've eaten in regular intervals, it sounds the same as a normal person's daily amount!

Hugs to you & bubs xx

Hi Julia,

Is this still working for you?

I am feeling sick and being sick every day and hate it, I don't really fancy anything and when I do, I can't keep it down

Maybe I should start doing this, eating little and often.

Lucylou,

It really does help. I just eat bland food such as bread and butter. Another thing I have tried is ice lollies and they seem to work. I do have to force it down sometimes but within half an hour the sickness has eased a little. Also sucking on a lemon seems to work. It is soooooo bitter that the sick feeling goes!!

Try everything and anything!!!!

Thanks Julia, I keep wanting ice lollies although end up with a strange taste in my mouth after

Sucking a lemon hmmm, not sure if i can do that one ! Crumpets, toast and sandwiches I can do x

my daily routine is now

7:30am Bowl of cereal
10:30am piece of toast
1pm Lunch
3pm Afternoon snack.....usually chocolate
5:30pm piece of bread while I walk the dog
7pm evening meal
8:30pm snack.......again usually choclate

I know if I was at home all dya I would probably eat more often than that and I know if I miss any of them....particularly in the morning I feel really sick. It does make me feel bad for eating so much but I've weighed myself and I haven't put any weight on yet from the weight I was before I was pregnant so my body must be burning off all the extra calories making the bean.

I am finding that I can't eat quite as big meals as I normally do though because I fill up quicker so at least thats a bonus

 

[Julia]

Same here, Chrissy, i can't eat big meals - only snacks. My poor DH has not had a proper meal in ages!! I do all the cooking and usually really enjoy it BUT there is NO WAY I can do that now!!

Thank goodness my little girl is only 2 and only eats small portions!

Meat is definately a NO NO!!!! UUUURRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!
