Hellooo!!

I am really struggling with morning (all day everyday) sickness!

I am struggling to find things to eat that I can keep down, or even stomach the thought of!

Any suggestions?? 🥺🤞🏼

Dry toast
And then on good days, dry potato waffles

Good luck!

Mini cheddars. I found that if I ate little and.often through the day the sickness wasn't as bad. I cut out milk in my drinks and just dipped on juice (normally just a water girl) but juice was good for me.

Also, buy some mints to suck on. Life saver at work . Or shopping !!

Eat as late as you dare and if you're able up in the night eat something then. Then eat as soon as you can in the morning. For me each of these 'meals' was a bag of crisps 😂 though I did find a cereal bar I could tolerate for a while it had to be crisps at night or I'd wake up with a sickly sweet aftertaste.
Melon, grapes, sliced apples (biting into a whole one was a no!) Birdseye waffles, boiled rice, oven chips, jacket potatoes, dry cornflakes with a bit of sugar, but mainly CRISPS! It does get better...I am eating like I did pre-pregnancy now at 27 weeks which is good apart from my liking for fruit (normally avoid it) was short-lived, I went through tonnes of it but I'm back onto veg again now instead.

Lots of melon here, good for getting some fluids into you. Lots of clear vegetable soup and plain boiled rice too. You have my sympathy, all day sickness sucks.

Have a cracker or Crisps plus a glass of water waiting for you when you wake up. Eg directly next to you, I couldn't move in the morning out of bed without being sick if I hadn't at least had a little to eat. That helped the very first initial morning throwing up ease a little. Again I ate so little at first but then my Dd was a good weight when born so definitely didn't harm her.

How many weeks are you op?

I had terrible morning sickness which disappeared as if by magic at 12 weeks!

Ginger biscuits, crisps, toast, sweets and grapes were okay ish....

I froze segments of orange and sucked them- gets a bit of sugar in and is so refreshing- almost like an orange ice lolly. Those and salt and vinegar crisps/rice cakes. And chocolate 😂Try and really tune in to what your body wants at that moment, I’ve found that helps.

Sounds weird but I relied on what I can only describe as cold wet things 😂😂

Melon
Cereal
Ice poles
Grapes
Apples
More ice poles

For me it was:
DC1: orange ice lollies, specifically the Tesco finest Valencia ones
DC2: raw carrot sticks I don't recommend eating nothing but several carrots a day & not drinking a lot.
DC3: it seemed to change every couple of weeks but the longest phase was beef hula hoops

For the first few weeks with the last 2 all I could stomach was tiny sips of flat 7up. Literally tiny sips - a 500ml bottle could last me all week! Medication made the world of difference!
