My VITEX Journey

[Butterfly Spirit]

Thanks ladies! I will try to get in on Tuesday.
It will be nice to get an actual due date rather than going off of suspected O.

OMG for crying out loud, tell him I said to shut up. Women have been doing it for hundreds of years and they have healthy babies..If you can't keep anything down though you need to tell your doc. You should be able to keep something down. Crackers like saltines, gingerale, or dry toast. I'm sorry he's nagging you. I've started a bit of sickness myself and if I don't eat... it comes on. If I don't eat enough it comes on! I don't know if it's the same as my others but I hope not.

I'm sorry you are SO sick, really though if you can't keep anything down you need to tell your doc. There are anti-nausea meds and other things. I take Phenegrine for my M/S when it comes on strong. I know you can take B6 or B12 for nausea as well and it has been known to help. They can give it to you in shot form if you can't keep it down.

Babyy, you may find that if you eat, you actually feel BETTER, not worse. With my first I was throwing up all the time because i never wanted to eat, but with the other kiddos I realized that eating actually prevented me from throwing up.

Try sucking a Jolly Rancher or lemon drop in the morning first thing when you get up - it can help. I was able to handle tart things a lot better than most foods.

SO right! I am discovering that with this pregnancy.. if I don't eat, I get sick! It's been happening since yesterday.

OMG!! Why can't I be normal!? When I eat I am a wreck but when I don't eat I'm just weak and tired but not sick..normal?? I think not! But what I do is whatever I "crave" I go for it and I actually can stomach it. I force apples down tho and Teddy Grahams are my friends! I need to go shopping though because we have almost nothing to eat here & as long as I am forcing myself I might as well make it enjoyable. Pistacios, sunflower seed, Teddy grahams, fruit, and broccoli is what I will have to live off of..OH and white rice!
Lol Butterfly my hunny isn't THAT bad but he's afraid of losing the baby or something going wrong since the baby is tiny & since I rarely eat and I am a little extra stressed. BUT he does need to back off sometimes lol
Oh and atomic jolly ranchers!? I am excited now lol I get to eat candy for breakfast!

Sorry to interrupt here.
With my first baby I had HG. I was in and out of hospital on drips. Just thinking of different things I would get sick. My dreams would cause me to get sick. Smells. The works.
It was horrid. My partner had to cook for himself outside. I lived off of coffee and ginger biscuits the first 18 odd weeks then I could eat mashed potato cheese etc but still getting sick everyday till 40 weeks.
Well guess what??? My baby was a healthy 8 pounds 5 with scores of 8 and 9!!!
Trust me your baby will be fine. Yes I puked up water but I tried getting water into my system. The times I didn't I ended up in hospital.
With my second baby. I was sick every day till 16 weeks. Then every other day till 20 weeks.
In the first trimester I lived off of ice and lemon!!!

You can get tablets to help nausea though =) not sure on what their name would be over there. My dr write me a prescription the first appointment considering my pregnancy before that.

Best of luck. A high percentage of ladies ms is pretty much gone come 15 weeks ( hate whb thy say 12 weeks lol) if you need any help just pm me =)

You aren't interrupting here at all, everyone's input is welcome. And I hear you... I was sick all 9 months with my 2 boys but Phenegrine helped a lot. I have it in my medicine cabinet, I know it helps but it makes me REALLY tired.. and I'm already on progesterone so that makes me tired. I shouldn't complain.. this is NOTHING like I have been through before, I guess I'm just worried about it turning into what I've dealt with in the past.

I've read a bit into what you've gone through. But only on my phone ATM. And I don't blame you at all. I've never heard of phenerghan to help ms. But I cann see why it would make you sleepy. What category is it for pregnancy? C?
I took maxalon. It's safe during pregnancy. There's also donperadone? But it's not fully tested yet.
It sorrrrt of helped with my youngest. My eldest I would puke it back up. Even on the drip I would puke back up.
Look after yourself okay. Xo

Sorry I'm late in replying I was fascinated by this page:

It's the generic Promethazine that I have taken in the past. I've gotten it with my first 2 pregnancies. I'm actually not sure where it falls on the list..hmm. :\
Since I'm not as sick I'm wondering if it's my B-50 complex pill I've been on to conceive it has B-6 and B-12 in it. That might be the case.. this is different sickness, but it's not fun either lol Thank you!
