Hi guys...Just a moan really...i have 3 children already...had sickness with my last 2...Vomitting and food aversions...Lost a good half a stone and was sickly throughout the day.But got through it.. So i can handle it to a degree...this is my 4th baby...Im 8 weeks tomorrow and for 2 weeks ive been vomitting everyday.Most times twice...evening im vomitting aswell as mornings.If im not vomitting im heaving and retching.I cant even drive as im gagging and pulling over constantly.Ive done ginger tea and biscuits...dry plain food little and often.Getting fluids in and keeping them down enough.G.P persribed cyclizine yesterday as im just not coping.I have a 2 year old.And even turning the oven on is making me be sick.(The oven smell) changing his nappys OMG :( and i cant take him out as im so weak and nauseous...i feel so guilty.My partners taken time off work but it cant carry on...No family or friends know im pregnant...im keeping it quiet til 16 weeks.Even if i caved in and told them.They all work and cant help anyway...The cyclizine hasnt made much difference and im also feeling bad and worried about taking it...Just looking for any reassurance and sympathy really.Really fed up!I dread waking up each morning to feel like this again...

Hi sorry ur having a hard time with sickness. 8-10 weeks was my worst and ended up on a drip at 9 weeks. I was given ondansetron when I left the hospital and it was a life saver I didn't like the idea of medication but it helped me function lol just remember it gets easyer I'm 21 weeks now and maybe sick once a week. Good luck hope u feel better soon

I have struggled a lot this pregnancy with sickness it has come back for the third time this week (I’m 23 weeks) I was on cyclizine initially but stopped working and they put me on metoclopramide which is working. Go back to your gp they can try you on something else there are lots of different sickness medications that work for different women xxx

Feel for you :( I posted something similar a few weeks ago. My severe sickness lasted until about 15 weeks and now only really sick when very tired.
Have you spoken to your GP/midwife to get some tablets?

Thanks guys....Im sorry your all suffering aswell...feel really deflaited that im struggling and at the end of my tether so early on...its giving me real bad panick attacks thinking about this lasting any longer...and further into pregnancy. Ive got a feeling the cyclizine is causing migraines...ive had it 3 days.I go to sleep with it...and wake up and its still there.Its just so suffocating knowing your limited or not really supposed to take medication...feel so trapped :(
