Sorry you're suffering from this, go to your GP as they can prescribe tablets that should help as continual vomiting puts you at risk of dehydration. Look up hyperemesis gravidarum as this condition is unfortunately fairly common, my daughter in law had this with all 4 of her pregnancies, the tablets definitely helped. Hopefully your symptoms will ease anyway after the first 12 weeks or so.

Congratulations on your bfp, good luck xxx

Agree with Sunonarainyday, go and see your GP and don’t go on suffering.

I had this from 7 weeks until 15 weeks, some days were so bad I couldn’t even keep down water. I focused on staying hydrated as best as I could as I knew dehydration is the biggest concern with this condition.

I’m now 16+3 and although I’m still being sick now and again it’s not everyday and it’s not as severe.

I remember feeling it would never go away and I was so down, I took time off work too so don’t be scared to do that if you need to.

This is a serious condition and a lot of people don’t quite get that. I hope your GP can prescribe something that’ll help, if it doesn’t help go back as there are many things they can try. Xxx

Hi I was told not to take b6 in regards of the morning sickness I’m afraid not a lot help I was the same. Just keep having tiny sips of water. Before bed take rich tea ir digestives yo to bed with you and have one or two before getting out of bed you could speak to your GP he can give you tablets but I don’t think they work either. My sickness didn’t settle until about 16/17 weeks I lost a lot of weight but baby’s fine they’re are apparently tougher than we think xxx

Ask your doctor for either Diclegis and if that doesn’t work, Zofran. Diclegis is the same components as Unisom and B6 but is extended release that you take before bed. I work for an obgyn, and they prefer to prescribe that over Zofran, which is used in extreme cases.
