What's good for an upset tummy?

I had porridge for breakfast with coffee, then some cake & tea later on in the day. Got an upset tum around 3. Feeling nauseous and like I need to empty my tum since then. Is there anything I should eat? DH is having Indian take away 😭 thought best to avoid it.

Toast

My mum would tell you dry crackers.
I like peppermint tea.

Whatever you fancy eating. I would avoid anything fatty or spicy.

Ginger nut biscuits are good for settling nauseous stomachs.

Apart from that, plain food. Crackers, toast etc, plenty of water.

Probably best to avoid the Indian.

Mashed potatoes!

Drink some coke.. The really one...
Always works for us..

Lemon water. Preferably still lemonade.

I had some really heavy chicken pie at my moms at lunchtime. It was gorgeous, I had more. It expanded in my stomach, she told me there was cream in the white sauce.
I decided to go to the gym for an hour, really pushed myself.
Now my tummy feels crampy and won’t empty.
I’m on my second cup of lemon in boiling water. It’s helping to soothe and aid digestion.

Pepto Bismal - any 24 hr chemist's near you? It's great stuff!

Peppermint tea for me. And lots of water.

Haworthia · 09/12/2018 19:34

Honestly? I wouldn’t eat anything.

Cheeseandapple · 09/12/2018 19:34

Aw love mumsnet! Thanks everyone. No peppermint tea but I did find chamomile, which I'm sipping. Lemon & flat coke next.

I always have a bottle of coke ready to open when sickness bug hits our home.
It works a treat!
I have found it only work flat (pour into glass and stir) also it works better if it is coca cola, the real one!

WhoKnewBeefStew · 09/12/2018 20:46

Diet Coke always settles my stomach

chemenger · 09/12/2018 20:46

I came on here to say flat coke, with or without some dry crusty bread.

Northumberlandlass · 09/12/2018 20:48

My Mum would say flat lemonade

mummmy2017 · 09/12/2018 22:34

If being sick get a bowl feed the person flat coke, and wait. They throw up once.. Feed more coke... Job done bug gone...

bellsbuss · 09/12/2018 22:41

Flat Coke every time.
