How do you like not get fired being sick and nauseated all the time during pregnancy? I couldn’t go to work for two out…

You can ask your doctor for medicine to control your vomiting and nausea. I had the same problem and I told them if i didn’t get something I was going to lose my job.

@dammmonique, I have something, but it knocks me out and they said they couldn’t give me anything else because I can’t take anything that doesn’t make me sleepy until I’m out of my first trimester.

@sagwaenglish, I’ve tried those 😭

Peppermint, ginger ale and gaterade were my best friend my 1st trimester with both of my pregnancies. I would also try to eat small meals or just have snacks to help. I had a bag of peppermints with me at all times and I also used doterra peppermint essential oils.

@1818.whiterabbit, have you tried these? Ginger candy helps. When I use to feel sick chewing on mint gum helped, have a cup of cold water and lemon and talking small sips . With my first it was so bad I would keep crackers on my night stand and before even getting up I would eat a few and that helped too.

@thegermanmommy, I’ve literally tried all of the above (Sprite in place of the ginger ale.) I literally cannot hold anything down. I’ve stopped gaining weight. I’ve given up on eating a healthy diet. I’m more concerned with what I’m going to do about work until I can have non drowsy nausea medicine. I feel like I can’t eat at all then when I don’t eat I vomit acid so I lose either way. I just feel awful

@dammmonique, I haven’t tried those yet. This is the first I’m hearing of them! I’ll have to get me some. Where can I find them?

@jmariegarbaloff, thank you so much!

That’s how I was I ended up losing 15 pounds but not since I been in my second trimester I feel a lot better

@mommie_4, I’m just trying to get past the first trimester. Ill be able to take Zoltan instead of the phenergan and I am beyond ready.

@1818.whiterabbit, any baby store! Or

Target

@dammmonique, thank you!

The pill with the pink lady on it... lol

@beachcutie0808, well okay lol

Call your Ob for a Prescription of something for nausea

@sunflowerfields, I have an appointment Monday. I already have something but it makes me drowsy.

Try asking for b6 Vitamin

@1818.whiterabbit Diclegis

I take phenergan, and just make myself stay awake through the fatigue. It knocks me out too but I’d rather be sleepy than throwing my guts up. Lol I’ve lost 18 lbs in 6 weeks from being sick and not being able to eat. I’m definitely ready to hit the second trimester and be able to take zofran IF I’m still sick.

@lauren_leigh, I am right there with you. I will literally fall asleep and they’ll fire me. I’ve already got an issue with fatigue because I have an under active thyroid and low iron, so I can’t add phenergan on top of it. I’ve already tried.

@1818.whiterabbit, thankfully my supervisor knew about my ttc journey and knows how much this means to me, and is super supportive and a good human being. Lol I have a desk job so if I fall asleep he will wake me up. He knows that I’m doing the best I can. I can’t miss anymore work either or I get knocked out of being able to go to first shift, which would basically end in me having to find a new job. Hopefully at your appt they will be able to give you something else that might help!

@lauren_leigh, it always helps having people who support you!
