Nearly 11weeks and plagued by constant nausea since week 5/6! Help!

[Roseylee20]

Absolutely ecstatic to be pregnant, I just feel so desperately stressed that I can't enjoy it!
I have constant nausea 24/7, can only eat very small meals, so eating little and as often as I can.
Palpitations on and off which I had before I was pg, but now they are worse.
Extreme fatigue to the point where I'll have a shower but within 10 mins I need to get out and lie down.
I can't stand up/walk around for too long without feeling hot/ill/sick.
I've tried; ginger biscuits, ginger tea, ginger 'beer', sipping on drinks, flat lemonade, dry toast, plain foods, resting, mint imperial sweets, biscuits, crackers, wearing sea bands, and possibly more but too many to think of!
Can anyone help??! I have a doctors appointment booked for Wednesday morning but I'm weary of taking anti-sickness meds for 1; any side effects? 1; reading that they haven't even worked for some people.
Please help x

Poor you - hopefully it will subside soon. I was sick from 6 weeks to 12 with 1st and up to 24 weeks with my 2nd - all day and extremely tired too. The key thing is to REST whenever you can as that does make a big difference. Nibbling food rather than eating large amounts...IF you can lie down and sleep then my advice would be to do that...ooh I remember swimming seemed to be one activity I could manage without feeling too bad - that helped work out a bit and helped me sleep. GOOD LUCK.

firstly, congratulations! and secondly, you genuinely do have my sympathy. I was plagued with near-constant nausea from about 5/6 weeks until about 13 weeks. it was awful :(

I tried all the usual remedies people suggested but nothing really seemed to help... some things I found that did take the edge off were to nibble almost constantly on dry foods like crackers, plain biscuits and dry toast. Warm food seemed to help more than cold food did, so things like soup, plain rice, potatoes... although interestingly, ice cold water helped more than hot drinks did!

Previous poster suggested swimming, I also found that a gentle swim helped keep the nausea at bay for a couple of hours. Aside from that, lie down and sleep when you need to/if you can... I know it's not always possible.

I've no experience of anti-sickness meds so I'm afraid I can't help on that front.

Hoping it passes soon for you.

I know it's hard but try to think of it as being temporary. I had constant nausea from 6 to 14 weeks and it suddenly started to subside. I'm now 23 weeks and no nausea, touch wood! I think it will come back at some point but now I look back on it as being a very unpleasant time that doesn't last forever. The tiredness got me down but that's gone now too. I found vitamin b6 helped and ginger chews to an extent. I'm not trying to minimise how horrid it is - just try to remember there will be an end point!

Thanks everyone- yes I hope it will be temporary! Although I've read that some ladies on here had it all the way through! puppydog thanks, yes whenever I am not at work I am resting. Even at food shopping yesterday I felt too ill to walk around. Katiegee I know what you mean, I'm better with ice cold drinks than warm too. And I used to love a cup of tea! The main thing that does seem to agree with me is crisps. I could happily just eat them all day but am really trying to eat something a bit better than them too. Instead of normal meals, because I'm eating a lot less than normal, I've started having kids meals from asda, the ready meal ones! The are easy as they are microwaveable (I haven't had the energy to cook every day), and they are small portions but just enough for me! Thanks everyone for your help x
