Tips for napping without sickness on waking

[littlemiss83]

Hi ladies

I know i'm such a bore always moaning about being sick.

The last couple of weeks i've only been sick in the mornings, first thing before i've eaten, not had it any other time of day, but i'm extremely tired, and would love to be able to have a nap when I get home from work, even 20 mins on the couch, but i'm sick even when doing this.

Any tips on sleeping positions (apart from sitting upright)

it must be something to do with lying flat but i cant think of any other option.

I now have 4 pillows as I think lying flat don't help. I also take my time getting up slowly, I lie in bed half hour and sip water and eat a few grapes and read my book, I'm sure it's helped me as my main nausea is evenings now. I also sleep with sea bands on, when I removed them over night I felt terrible!

Hi Sarah

Thanks for that, I might just try the extra pillows, i'm sure I have some spares in the wardrobe. Its gonna be very strange to sleep like that, i'll probably throw them onto the floor while half asleep, but they would be good for a quick 1/2 an hour nap.

Wish I could lie in bed for a while after I wake, but because I have to get up so early I think I would fall back asleep again, can barely keep my eyes open.

I keep hearing people talking about those sickness bands, definately gonna try and get my hands on some.

Is a bit odd with so many pillows but you get so tired that you could prob sleep on a washing line! Sea bands don't take it away but I think they take the edge off which helps you get through! Hope you feel better soon x

Eee I HAVE to sleep with no pillow at all, as If my head is raised I feel very sick! x I've been sleeping with sickness bands on too! They help a lot throuhg the night I've found, but not so much during the day x Don't know why x

Thanks so much ladies.

I'm feeling like I could run a marathon today, the sun is shining and I wasn't sick this morning

First day in about 6 weeks, hopefully its gone although I wont be suprised if its back tomorrow.

Didn't do anything different but i'm definately going to look out the pillows anyway.
