Morning Sickness Posted: 01-03-08 13:42pm
so i've read the comments that most of you
have posted when i was talking about my
ultrasound results, and no people i am not
lying about being pregnant. the doctor
that did the ultra sound said its early in
my pregnancy, but everything is going
well, i dont have a family doctor which is
WHY i have gone to only TWO doctors, i am
on a waiting list for a family doctor. and
yes i took a hpt on the 10th of dec. and
it was positive, i even took one the day
after that one and it was positve too. im
5 weeks pregnant now, and the answer that
i got from the doc. that did my ultrasound
was: you dont concieve while on your
period, but doctors go by when you had
your last period and then tell you how far
along you are. But an ultrasound tells you
exactally how far along you are.
Anyways, i had the flu on dec.25th which
sucked, and it lasted for three days but
now its all gone. But now morning
sickness has kicked in, anytime i have
milk products i get nauseus and throw up,
does anyone have any tips on what helped
them with morning sickness?

I just didn't eat in the morning. For the
first 3 months of my pregnancies, I had
almost no appetite.
Try hard cheeses, hard boiled eggs, and
bland carbs (like potatoes cooked in
butter, or saltine crackers).

I can't have milk products even now (36
weeks) You could with the milk product
just grown a temp. allergy like we think I
have during pregnancy.

i still dont know what foods are better
for me to eat right now, most things i eat
come right back up, like [u]some[u/]
fruits, cheese, yogurt, plain bread,
chicken noodle soup, some pastas...
today was a pretty good day, i only had
sickness in the morning and i kept down
spaghetti, peanut butter and jelly a small
fruit cup and some lasanga, which is way
better than this last week!

crackers before bed and lots of water

gestational age??

often when you are pregnant your taste
buds will drastically change. good luck
with that!

Every morning I grated some fresh ginger
and poured hot water over it. It seemed to
help a bit.
Since milks kinda hard right now, make
sure you're taking you're vitamin and
getting lots of calcium.
I also found that baby cookies were really
easy on my stomach too. Mmmmm and
Popsicles and ice cream. It helped kinda
numb my nausea : )
I also found that fresh air works wonders,
and colder air as well. Good luck!

A good friend of mine had horrible
morning/all day sickness and she swore by
"Preggo-Pops"??? I'm pretty sure that's
the name...anyway their lolly pops that
you can get at the drugstore/walmart ect.
Good Luck!

Man, I looked everywhere for Preggie-pops!
I saw them on the internet and wanted to
find them so I looked in the pharmacy,
Walmart, Zellers, even a specialty
supplement store, and nada!
Do we even have those in Canada?
I was going to buy them on-line but
deliver was gonna be forever and I figured
I'd be better by then, lol.

You can't get pregnant when you are having
your period because there is no egg. What
happens, I guess, is that people are
having unprotected sex at the very. very
end of their periods and the sperm are
living long enough to fertilize the egg
that comes early, after the period.
So what krystineM said is true, you cannot
CONCEIVE during your period.
In other words, the first day you are
late on your period, you are approximately
2 weeks pregnant.

What bugs me about that is that you
technically are only two weeks...but when
you get a positive, your doc says four
weeks, counting from your LMP. Makes no
sense! I really think that's why so many
chicks go overdue.

actually i went a week over due and tehy
calculated my due date from an ultrasound
:p
i agree though it is stupid (im just
playing with the above, its true but i
know what you mean), i dont get why they
cant just tell you from early
ultrasounds...although those arent
completly accurate

I think the reason they can't tell from an
early ultrasound is because there is
basically a bubble there for 4wks or
something... Just don't quote me on it,
I'm not a doctor.
