All I can manage is bread

I'm nearly 7 weeks and over the last few days the nausea has hit me like a truck.
It's especially bad in the evenings for some reason, so much that I'm wretching in the toilet before bed most nights.
All I seem to eat is bread bread bread and more bread, toast etc.

Please share your remedies.. and why is it worse in the evening? Has this happened anyone else?

Clear soup? Fruit squash? If you can’t keep other stuff down, make sure you talk to your midwife (and are getting the correct pregnancy vitamins). I felt bloated and mild nausea in evenings. It did get better around 12/13 week mark for me. I hope it does improve.

It just happens to some women that it's worse in the evenings, some the afternoons, etc. Mine was worse as the day went on because once I ate it started and the more times I'd eaten the worse it was, so the only time I didn't feel nauseous was from about 11pm in bed until I ate around 8am. No advice except just stick with whatever you can eat and drink and stay with that until it eases. This time all I could drink for months was diluted blackcurrant juice with ice in it and for weeks just ate crunchy veg and fried chicken!

Hi op. I was exactly the same. Carbs were all I could tolerate. Bread. Toast. Mac and cheese and jacket potato’s. For about 6 weeks - I felt better by 13 weeks and much better by 15 weeks. It’s one of those awful things you have to struggle your way through really and work out what works for you. I felt a lot worse in the evening or if I let my self get hungry so it was little and often for me. Obviously if you’re really struggling pls speak to your midwife or GP xxx

Yep I was the same...what helped was eating little and often, eating bland carbs, letting myself decide what sounded good and just getting it, taking vitamin B6, and lying on my left side. Oh and ice water.

See your GP. Lots of anti-emetic medication that can help. Don't suffer unnecessarily.
