Hi
I'm 14 weeks pregnant. I'm suffering a condition with my ears which causes me to be dizzy and vomit. My ears are constantly blocked. Nobody is diagnosing it, I've been to see a consultant - because I'm pregnant so they won't do any tests etc.
Thing is I'm so upset as I don't know if the vomiting is the baby or my dizziness? This is my 2nd pregnancy and I didn't feel like this in my 1st. I am so sick I don't know what to do?
Thank you

Have you asked about antiemetic medication? One of them - prochlorperazine - is used to treat labyrinthitis which is a middle ear infection that causes dizziness and nausea/vomiting. It is also prescribed for women experiencing severe sickness in pregnancy - might be worth talking to your GP?
