QuestionHi, hope all is well with you. I need some advice. I have morning sickness sooooooo bad! I can't even keep water in my tummy for very long, the yucky feeling lasts all day and I get sick 3-6 times a day. I am just wondering when this will stop, its driving me nuts?! I am also wondering if this highly sensitive smell will last the entire pregnancy, I am only 9 weeks. Everything smells so terrible! Things that never bothered me before, now send me running to the bathroom. It is driving my parter crazy, everytime he cooks, walks by, or anything I get sick. I cannot go the gym, because the second I walk in there I get sick, will I be able to go back to the gym once the sickness passes? Also I have not been able to keep my prenatals in my tummy, so I have been taking childerns chewable vitamins, is that ok for now? Sorry so long, just need a shoulder to cry on! One last thing, the fatique, will this ever go away?
AnswerHello K. There is a very good chance that all of this will clear up in the next 3-4 weeks. However, there are some women who are plagued with these problems much longer. In that case your dr. will prescribe medication that is very effective. Try very hard to keep something in your stomach at ALL times- the best is dry toast, crackers, popcorn, rice, etc. Even when you wake in the night, eat some crackers. The nausea is MUCH worse when your stomach is empty. You must force yourself to eat little nibbles ALL day long- every waking moment. Hope that helps- Cheri.
