M/S and drugs?

[mswax]

Sorry for all the m/s questions. This is my third pregnancy, and I've never been sick like this before. For over a week now, I've felt sick all.day.long. I can get through what I have to (work, kids, etc.), but it's hard. I vomit at least once/day and dry heave multiple times a day. Most foods disgust me, and I have to force water down. If I get in 16 oz/day it's a win.

I was sick with DS2, but not like this. When I went to my 1st appt with him, the doctor offered drugs and I accepted. I don't have my 1st appt this time for another week and a half. Should I call and see if I can get something sooner, or just hold out until Jan 3rd? I don't think anything terrible will happen in the next week and half, but I feel pretty awful.

So, call right after Christmas or hold out? Thoughts?

Call right after Christmas. Don't suffer needlessly, especially since I doubt you can laze about with 2 other kiddos around!

I'd call right after Christmas. It's not worth it to feel miserable for another week.

Call ASAP! No need to be miserable!

Call, and are you doing B6 and/or unisom?

I'd call ASAP. That said, I will say that the zofran curbed my vomiting but didn't do a ton for the nausea.

I hope you feel better soon!

Yeah, this. Zofran helped me stop vomiting so much, but I still felt like absolute ass until about 17 weeks. I'm so sorry you are having a hard time.

Call now. But don't expect the m/s to disappear with it. It definitely helps me but I'm still puking/nauseous, it's just not as bad.

Call and also try 25 mg of vitamin B6 3x a day. Did more for me than Zofran and I did both.

You may not remember this but you and I were due within like a day of each other last time (DD was born 7/26/10 at 40w1d). Glad to see you are expecting again! Hope you feel MUCH better soon. I had wretched morning sickess this time as well.

We were due date twins last time! I'm going to call on Wednesday, but I'm also going to get some B6 as well. Not sure I can do another month of this!!!

I did B6/unisom and while it worked for about a week, my body apparently decided to build an immunity up to it. Ask for the Zofran - it may not fix everything but it's a start. You have two other LOs to take care of, it's hard to do when you're non-functioning.
