Roxster Welcome. Sorry you are suffering badly. Xonvea has helped many on here; I'm assuming they have given you a laxative with the Ondansetron, as it can really tie up the bowels? This is a very lonely condition, and everyone has dark thoughts. I hope you have help with LO? I found the sickness did seem bad in week 14. Here's my normal spiel, which I hope may help. 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, frozen smoothie ice lollies, the juice of tinned fruit, Vimto, 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 (M and S has been recommende), 7Up, isotonic drinks, sips of strawberry or 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 , cloudy lemonade and Sprite. Foods of a sort include tinned fruit, cuppa soup, nibbles of crisps and chips, cheap ice cream, Scotch pancakes, bagels and biscuits, potato smileys, minature salty Yorkshire Puddings and dry cereeal.
2littlegems It is dismal that they have been so dismissive at the hospital, when dehydration in a pregnant woman should be taken seriously. I'm sorry to hear about the atttiude about most of the nurses. When you are recovered, you might want to think about making a formal complaint. The NHS may be under a strain, but there is no excuse for such an attitude. I am glad you got fluids, anyway, and I do hope it eases for you a bit soon.
Apologies to anyone rudely overlooked.
