Welcome to Togetherismyfavourtieplace and HopefulJ2018.
Togetherismyfavouritelace Congratulations for your courage in going for it again. I would definitely take the meds while you wait for an appointment. There is lots of support on here. Did it ease off a lot at some point in your last pregnancy? Have you got support ffrom friends and family to look after your LO, as rest is one of the best things? HopefulJ2018 You've had great advice already from Derbee and others. I include my normal spiel that might help, though you may have come across it on the thread. Ignore the bits that don't apply. Most sufferers find that they improve a lot at some point between weeks 14 and 20, or sometimes later. Even those who are unlucky enough to suffer throughout generally are not as ill later on as they are in the first part. A good anti acid can make a surprising difference to the sickness. Kesostix are worth buying online or from a chemists, as while they aren't they best test of dehydration, hospitals take them seriously. When reporting on the vomiting to doctors, remember to emphasize the number of heaves in each vomiting session, as doctors tend to count these as 'vomits' and this can lead to their underestimating the severity of your symptoms. Besides drinking through a straw, here are some drinks that have helped others: full sugar flat coke (if you don't find it too acid), ice lollies, the juice of tinned fruit, Lucozade, apple juice, Ribina, Dr Pepper, soda water, Elderflower water, tonic water, ice cubes, Iron Bru, lemonade, lemon squash, orange squash, orange juice (if not too acid), fizzy orange, 7Up, isotonic drinks, sips of chocolate milkshake (maybe soya), fizzy water, apple juice, Robinson's fruit drinks, Rubicon sparkling mango drink , raspberry Lucozade sport and frozen ice cubes of flat Lucozade sport. Also, pink lemonade and cloudy lemonade. Foods of a sort include tinned fruit, cuppa soup, nibbles of crisps and chips, cheap ice cream, Scotch pancakes, bagels and biscuits, potato smileys, slices of melon and mango. Protein drinks have also been mentioned.
Interesting how Acupunture helped Derbee and LK18 and others and not Melleebacca. And interesting about it not being likley to work if it hasn't in 3 to 4 sessions.
Waves to thingymaboob abbs1 kalidasa. .Great advice from you all as ever.
