Nausea and toddler

Hi

I am just 8 weeks pregnant . I am finding my nausea is at it's worse 11/12 sort of late morning then continues. It then gets worse during the evening and I struggle to sleep because my stomach is churning . I am also waking up in the night feeling sick
This is absolutely draining me , I feel sick pretty much all day with retching and occasionally vomiting but it's the constant feeling that I will vomit that is getting me down . I struggle to bend and pick things up due to the motion . I feel so sorry for my 2 year old as I can't take him out at the moment and I have to keep lying on the sofa and giving him healthy snacks to try keep him sitting down for a little bit ( he is always on the move )

Any advice please ?
I have taken anti sickness and it didn't help From the GP, am trying to eat regularly as it's worse with an empty stomach. As soon as I have finished eating though I just feel sick again. Have been having polo mints too. I work 12.5 hour shifts luckily only 2 per week but I don't know how I get through them :(

Hi I was in your shoes about 20 weeks ago..you can ask for a different anti sickness medication, sometimes switching it will help. I cant remember the name of what I took but it definitely made a difference. I still felt sick but the world wasnt spinning anymore.

Dont feel guilty about laying around, just put out lots of toys and use more tv if you need to get through this. Thats exactly what I did with my 2yr old .Hopefully it will pass soon.
