I found that normal sea sickness bands take the edge of the worst of the vomiting for me but not enough to keep me out of hospital..... Hoping these work better. Are expensive ($289) but I'd pay 10 times that to make those 7 weeks (between 6wks and 13wks) bearable.
The other thing I am going to try is Ze Su Yi - its a chinese leafy herb you make tea out of and its supposed to work wonders. I figure it can't hurt to try. I am on a countdown now - I reckon I've got about 10 days before the sickness hits.
So happy for you Treens, congratulations Sent from my SM-A225F using Tapatalk
