I tried 29 surprising morning sickness cures and here?s what happened
by Melissa Willets posted in Pregnancy
I have suffered from morning sickness during all four of my pregnancies. And I thought I'd tried everything out there to keep the nausea at bay, from eating saltine crackers, to sucking on Preggie Pops and ginger candy.
Unfortunately, nothing ever worked for me, until this pregnancy, when I discovered the wonders of chewing peppermint gum, and sipping on cranberry juice and coffee. Weird, right"
We put out a call to our BabyCenter Facebook community to find out what surprising morning sickness remedies worked for them. And let's just say we heard some doozies, from watching Back to the Future (I tried this and it didn't work for me) to smoking pot (sorry, not trying this one). All in all, hundreds of comments flooded in. I put 29 of my fellow preggo moms' morning sickness cures to the test, and here's how I fared:
Having the baby! After three births, I can vouch for the fact that this is a foolproof way to put an end to nausea and vomiting for good.
Popcorn and lemonade. Munching on this salty, movie snack made me feel even more queasy. Sipping lemonade was also not a relief.
Fresh cold tomatoes. This poster suggested eating them like apples. Which I'm just not doing. I'd rather puke.
Little applesauce cups. I agree eating this kid-fav food is refreshing, especially if you are feeling dehydrated from either puking or not being able to handle drinking liquids. But the respite from nausea was only temporary for me.
A cold wet...
