Today I finally got a hold of some "Sea-Bands", they are these acupressure wristbands that hit the P6 or "inner gate" point which is supposed to calm upset stomach. You know what? I think that they might be helping. Since wearing them my stomach is not totally calm, but I only yarked once today and that was before the bands. I still felt queasy but was able to eat some small stuff. I also discovered that the company that makes the bands also has ginger gum, which is great for a fast fix for rapid onset nausea. Go team pregnancy!
I am still worn out as all hell, but I managed to run an errand and spray weed killer on the front yard today :)

Glad to hear the bands are helping a bit :-) I've heard of women using them during pregnancy. Never heard of ginger gum! Sounds good though.
ReplyDeleteGinger seems to help the tummy. Are you taking prenatal vitamins? Its a good time to start if you aren't. It's good that you are able to eat a little today. Hang in there :-)
