Sickness continues...

[Eliska43]

Hello,

I am getting a bit desperate, mentally and physically drained. My sickness started in the week 6 and I saw the light at the end of the tunnel in the week 12. I am emetophobic, with terrible fear of vomiting. I have managed without vomiting so far, but was feeling queasy 24/7 and lost some weight and I didnt have some fat reserves in the beginning...

I just finished week 13, I dont feel queasy all the time (just most of the day), but I get boats of nausea when I feel like vomiting. I have to lie down and breath deeply to calm it down. It stays for couple of hours then.
It colides with eating and I am losing hope I can survive like this for much longer. I just keep crying, it is for me somehow very very dramatic and I cant cope anymore.

Have somebody been through this? How were you able to put on weight when you do feel so bad all the time?

Thanks a lot!

Unfortunately the nausea doesn't ease for some people, I was sick the entire way through pregnancy with our little boy. I actually found it better to be sick as that briefly eased the nausea, but then you've got to be aware about your hydration and I would find that my blood pressure would drop lot as well, which just exacerbated the problem, but I found electrolytes to help. What have you tried? I found ginger biscuits helped a bit, although I've read that some people find mints to be better - I didn't. I also found sickness bands helped xx
