Hi! I haven't been on the computer in awhile so I apologize for not posting for quite some time... I am posting today because we just found out on Friday that I am pregnant... we are very excited, but the one thing that scares the crap outta me is the fact that I am terrified of throwing up... every morning that I wake up and feel yucky, I panic and I am really not supposed to be taking xanax because it is a category D drug, so I don't take those anymore and I am in agony when I don't feel well... has anyone else who was afraid of being sick gotten pregnant and made it through without throwing up?... my gyno won't prescribe me anything unless i'm actually throwing up, which thankfully i'm not right now, but it's the worrying about will the morning sickness get worse and make me throw up... if anyone has any advice PLEASE SHARE! thanks!

If do actually feel sick in a morning (I was an evening sickness type) then take to bed a glass of water and ginger biscuits or crackers. When you wake up - do so gradually and sip the water and eat the biscuit until you feel able to move and the nausea has eased.

I found mint imperials eased my sickness feelings.
Could be trial and error until you find what works for you.
Try not to worry about it cos' it only lasts a few weeks then goes. Many women don't throw up just feel queasy.

thank you Linda! I will definitely run that by my doctor, I know they told me before they wouldn't give anti-emetics unless I was throwing up, but I think me feeling sick, not being able to eat, and panicking before I feel sick isn't a good thing for the baby and if an anti-emetic will help then I am hoping they will say it's ok.

Congratulations.

Hi, this was a worry for me when I got pregnant, I was recommened ginger from a friend and i went along to a health food shop and got myself some ginger, didn't taste fantastic, but it took me from feeling like I was going to throw up, to feeling a lot better. I am sure you will be fine.

you mean like the actual ginger spice? My fiance actually got me some of that and some ginger snaps... the ginger snaps didn't work, although that could be because i'm not hungry at all lately and it was hard to eat... did you throw up at all during your pregnancy?... my mom said she did once, but it was because she ate rich food or something, she said she never threw up in the morning... I just hate feeling like this, because I feel like I have no control... I have horrible panic attacks because of the nausea and I can't even take my xanax because they said it was unsafe.
