So I called my doctors office asking to get a prescription for nausea medicine, and they told me to take unisom, a sleeping pill....
has anyone else had a nurse say to take that? like, I'm exhausted as it is, I don't wanna take sleeping meds and make me more tired:/ I'm really frustrated, I can't leave my house because I'm running to the bathroom constantly to puke :'/
Vitamin b6 and the doxylamine succinate formula unisom are the main ingredients in s couple prescription nausea meds.
And the vitafol nano prenatals are seriously smaller than a aspirin. I just take a dha pill with them because they don't have it in them
I had morning sickness, but come to find out, all the iron was making is 10 times worse.
@elliekayy, yeah. Being sleepy sucks. I'm 31 weeks and I still can sleep all day and have zero energy. I never got that burst of energy like they say you get haha 😂 I found out, I was sensitive to iron. And most prenatals have lots of iron in them... My midwife prescribed me vitafol nano and they only have 18mg compared to the OTC ones with 25+ mg. she prescribed them to most of her patients in their first trimester.. Still to this day, if I take another prenatal with more, I feel awful.. So I'd explore that too. They'll just check your iron and make sure it's not to low.. Thankfully I've been able to stay on them.
@lumos.nox, that's the thing, I can't eat anything lol I just throw up damn near everything I eat😭 @klove2016 that's crazy, I just don't wanna be any more tires than I am 😂😂
you can also order them on Amazon. I'm not sure how long it'd take for them to get to you though.
Most nausea medicine they prescribe makes you sleepy. But yeah. It's weird that it works, but it's something to do with the sleepiness helps block the nausea signals in your brain. Something along those lines. Hope you feel better Hun.. It sucks; I was hospitalized with dehydration from throwing up so much. It gets better! Promise!!!
@angelic_clover, I've looked for those at the target, Walgreen's and rite aid and nobody has them:/
@klove2016, I just still think its crazy to take a sleeping pill lol I may try it just to see if it works 😰 @smb_mommy I've tried like four OTC meds lol nothing has worked
there r over the counter meds you can take. go to walmart but i can't remember the name
Unisom is super common to take for nausea during pregnancy. But I got prescribed zofran, nothing else helped
