Morning sickness

I’m 6 weeks pregnant and omg my sickness has gotten way worse the last week. I’ve always had nausea since before I even knew I was pregnant but now I’m struggling to eat. I’m in bed a lot as yesterday on the way to see my son in hospital I threw up all over myself :(

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!! Or is anyone experiencing the same

Mine has gotten a little bit better but it’s still pretty bad I’m 7w3d and the only thing that really helps is like mints or hard candies, it helps focus on something and makes you calm your breathing down (because it’s through your nose) but that’s just me but might be worth a shot?

Keep your blood sugar stable as much as possible- a dip in blood sugar will trigger nausea.
Try snacking on protein & complex carbs and eat more often - but smaller portions.
Ginger can help, I grate fresh ginger and sprinkle it everywhere, in my tea, in my broths, even in my morning porridge.

Vitamin B6 up to 25mg, 3 times a day has been shown to help so may be worth a try if you’re really struggling. I have also used homeopathy successfully for this- but it must be prescribed by a homeopath.

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.

Newborn stage

Is anyone tired of doing the same thing everyday and being on a 2-3 hour schedule? It’s the same everyday and I feel like I’m losing my mind. It’s making me depressed even if I get out once a day. When does it get better? I feel like I’m just waiting for the next stage where it’s not just sitting around all day.

Pregnancy after c section

What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.

Labour

Think im a bit confused really, i went into traige as was having contractions eveey 3-5mins. Since being here im now having them every 2-3mins which was confirmed with the machine and i think the toco was 90-100 and they feel painful and my lower back is in loads of pain but apparently im only just over 2cm dilated maybe, she has said i can stay here for a bit longer to see if things progress as had a previous quick birth as well but i dont understand why the pains are coming this quick if im only 2cm dilated and feel a bit deflated from it also.

I had a sweep this morning also.

Hospital bag (UK)

What did everyone pack for their section? I'm staying in for 3 days due to mental health, not really sure what I'll need to bring, feeling very nervous. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
