Are pot noodles the cure for morning sickness?

Currently at 6 weeks of baby #3 and the morning sickness has hit HARD!
The only thing I can stomach are chicken pot noodles and sparking water.
Would love to know what everyone else is reaching for when the nausea strikes 🤢

There is no cure apart from medication if it's too bad to handle. A nurse prescribed me something recently as I'm really suffering and she recommended anything dry nothing milky but to be honest it depends on the person. I'm liking pot noodles but only one particular flavour, although I may have now gone off them, loving honeydew melon!

@MummyFD mine was chicken super noodles. Possibly the high salt?

I used to crave pot noodles (well the Aldi pen brand) and I would eat them and be sick not long afterwards. Now I can't bear the thought of them!

Apples, couldn't stand to even touch the things but DP cut them up for me and I managed to get them down. As hard as that was it really helped.

I'm 9 weeks pregnant. Gp has prescribed my cyclazine which has really helped. In the meantime, I've gone up a dress size as bread and crisps really help the nausea.

Orange juice, Pom bears, plain pasta with butter and McDonald’s chicken nuggets with tomato sauce was mine!

O and Sunny-d and chicken super noodles on toast with grated cheese on top! I had hg for my entire pregnancy so these were the only foods I lived on for months and months

If I grazed constantly, I could stave it off (not good for my weight!), except for when I was driving past fields of oil seed rape, which made me retch (it was the smell of the pollen). I had to keep cough candy in the car as that smell and taste blocked it out.
I never actually vomited, but I did put on four stone with each pregnancy! (And lost it eventually each time after.)
Mine was all day nausea.

satsumas, strawberry jam on crackers. Sipping on sparkling water during school run helped. With all three pregnancies I could not stand coffee the taste was just awful. My friend survived on lucozade for months, that was when it was real lucozade with glucose.

1st pregnancy, orange juice. Disgusting muck. 2nd pregnancy, pellegrino water. The other sparkling waters has to big a bubble.

Marmite on toast
Salt and vinegar seabrooks crisps
McDonald's strawberry lemonade

Orange ice lollies. I was throwing up plain buttered toast :(
