    I think the "morning" sickness has set in. I haven't felt well all day, but I just ran downstairs to Hallmark to grab my mother's day cards, and I had this overwhelming feeling of nausea. So much so that I thought I was going to vomit all over the sales clerk in Hallmark! I love how they call it morning sickness when it can basically be any time, anywhere.

    What did you all do to help curb your sickness in the first trimester...and also, when did it start?

    I didn't have very severe morning sickness...more just a general queasiness that came and went from week 6 to week 12-13. I only threw up twice though. I ate saltine crackers a lot. It was uncomfortable, but never so bad that I couldn't go to work or get out of bed or anything. Good Luck!

    I identified the things that made me nauseous and I ran from them and then I immediately thought of something else if I came across it. If I could smell something sweet, it would make me nauseous and I thought of a beach or getting a manicure.

    I found that if my belly was full, I'd be less likely to feel sick.

    I'm sorry you are feeling sick but can I just say that this still makes me excited for you? Wasn't it you that got sick on the train once randomly and was hoping it was a sign? YAY now you're pregnant! (I hope you find something that helps with the nausea though- good luck!)

    @monalisa670: Yes! You have a really good memory! I still have no idea why I randomly got sick on the train that day, but it was back sometime in October. It seems sooo long ago, and I'm actually kind of excited that I'm getting sick...as really weird as that sounds!

    I understand the feeling! For me, it's nausea day in and day out... Fortunately I don't throw up just yet. My doctor just put me on Diclectin... I started yesterday, and not only did it help with the nausea, I had my first good night in over a month, because apparently being pregnant makes me suffer from insomnia too. I wasn't too comfortable with the idea of taking medicine, but she assured me it was safe, and so did the pharmacist, and so did my internet searches...

    Mine started around the 7th week and I threw up each Tuesday until my 2nd trimester. (Tuesdays because that's when I added a week.LOL Weird!)

    I used sea bands and ginger ale the most.

    @2PeasinaPod: Haha, yes I do tend to remember random things a lot! Too bad I can never remember where I put my phone. I totally get being excited to be getting sick... evidence that it's real!!

    I agree w/ artbee - making sure you eat some protein filled meals 5-6 times per day will keep the nausea away.  Morning sickness "usually" caused by the change in hormones and the best way to combat it is to eat (although that's the last thing on your mind).
