I’m struggling to eat currently. Taking ondansetron every 4 hours, most times I’m not puking but I get very close to. I’m basically bed ridden. This is my second pregnancy with HG but haven’t been hospitalized yet. With my first I was a lot.
I usually puke 1-3 x a day but the medicine helps a lot.
@Prana try asking for the Zofran pump that’s ondansetron. That will help you. I was bed ridden for a while then I found a work from home job. It takes time to get to that step . What do you eat now?
I’ll ask about that! Thanks. Currently I can only have pumpkin seeds covered in salt, plain oatmeal, I force myself to eat a scrambled egg every morning with my nose plugged. And I can’t drink water so I have cranberry juice with water or I have water with liquid iv in it. I also just had some flavorless jello. Every now and then after puking I have a spoonful of plain vanilla ice cream and it helps my throat
At the start of the pregnancy I could only have plain salads and apples, pears or melon. But now thinking of that makes me gag
@Prana okay do you want some snacks and different foods ,drinks to help list that helped?
Hi Dana, any suggestions to ease the insane saliva amounts? Xx
Thanks Dana, yes please list some things/ snacks that you could keep down. I’m willing to try it all
@Hannah yes try the water hack sea salt with lemon or lime above to get back the hydration your losing… Also try unsalted sunflower kernels at least 3 big handfuls at least 3 times day that will help it should go away soon or get a lot better asap.
Any advice is appreciated!
