Hello mums
I am going to be mum for the second time. My first time pregnancy first trimester was terrible. I somehow survived it. But it’s becoming worse this time with a toddler around. I am having terrible nausea and vomiting. I can’t stand any food. Every other smell makes me puke. It’s like living a nightmare every single day.
I know I can go to the GP and ask for anti-sickness meds. But I am bit suspicious as I had miscarriage before my first baby after taking a lot of anti-sickness medication.(idk if that was the reason). It just remained in my head and I can’t trust those medications anymore.
Please tell me if you have any other solutions or home remedies that worked for you which I can try. So far I have tried anti sickness bands and some sucking lemon chocolates. Does not seem to help at all.
Thank you in advance 🙏🏻

I suffered so much in pregnancy with sickness, heartburn you name it! I just fount sucking on mints and avoiding any form of rich foods helped! I lived on noodles, scrammed egg on toast, anything light for the first 4 months😢x

I was struggling terribly to eat due to nausea and someone recommended me to sip sparkling water during meals. It helped me to eat something during the whole pregnancy.

Take some pepcid complete daily, for me I wasn't aware of how bad it was contributing to the HG, but that helped control the nausea. Find a good electrolyte to drink daily, to avoid a hospital visit due to dehydration.
