I have been on the wait to see if this baby will make it. and now 6 weeks 3 days. I have had many losses last yr and I believe they were all due to my thyroid. Well I started meds shortly after confirming the pregnancy, last week had an ultrasound at 5 weeks 6 days and we saw only the gestational sac measuring 11.6 or 5 weeks 2 days. last loss had same and got really ill before baby passed at 6 1/2 weeks but I didnt know till 8 weeks 3 days.
suddenly I am VERY ill, whiney and anxiety ridden. so bad that I feel like I have the flu nearly all day and Im gagging. I have only puked right at the beginning of the pregnancy. Im eating so much to keep the lump out of my throat but Im miserable. with kids at home and trying to school them and live... I wonder why on earth I did this to myself.
give me every suggestion possible. I have taken or eaten most of it but maybe Im missing something. I am temped to go find a joint cause Im that desperate. (Not that I would ever know how to do it cause I dont even drink) good grief, someone come put me out of my misery.

The amount of protein I ingest right now is insane. The bad is, Im so ill, I tend to forget to take my meds.
oh and I need to brush my teeth constantly or that makes me gag too.
Im not one that pukes much but I do get the constant puke feeling for about 12 hrs or so and that alone makes me want to die. I tend to get depression easily when Im sick too long. Im just bad at being stuck in one spot or feeling so bleeping awful.
For the nausea can you ask your dr for anti nausea meds? I was really nauseous for about 7plus weeks and got nausea meds when I was really desperate and the PregEase was no longer working. The Rx worked much better! I know some people will not take an Rx but if it's that bad maybe it's worth a discussion.
Good advise is to keep eating! Sounds like you are doing that sweet ginger, apples with peanut butter, ob and j, ginger ale, citrus and pancakes with syrup were all the best foods to calm my stomach. Good luck!

Baby BOY was born April '15
however, today I woke and felt wonderful. no sickness all day. I actually dont feel anything which is what happened with my last loss. a surge, then nothing. so Im fully expecting wed to not see a heartbeat. I dont know how to feel about that because I have had so many losses. I do not think I will try again. Im too much of a whimp to go thru the sickness and try to function in life. with my daughter I was sick till 20 weeks and single then too. it was so awful but of course she is so worth it.
I had that with my 10 weeks loss. baby died at 6 weeks but I grew everything till I got it all out and was so ill. that SUCKED. I knew I had lost it at 6 weeks too. so the 4 weeks was absolute hell.
the nausea for me is a good sign but not a definite. usually when I feel something is wrong, it is. right now not feeling hopeful.
and the gum thing, I so wished it worked for me but peppermint makes it worse. I put in some gum today and had to take it out instantly. lemon or tart is ok tho.
Ultrasound is in 2 days.
Good luck at your scan!
anyway, Im 7 weeks tomorrow and baby measures 6 weeks 4 days. I also have a small bleed. I had this last time and the culprit I think is orgasm. not sex... just strong orgasm. I didnt have the bleed last time, (tmi) and I had 1 or 2 orgasms since last week and they are really strong for me which clearly means I need to stop it. not great. how do you go months without that?
so Im guessing the sickness will get way worse. Im puking and gagging now and starving every hr. still stuck on the couch or in bed all day. too dangerous to drive
I told the dr I was was so ill and he said, well you wanted to be pregnant! wonderful thank you. jerk.
sorry Im crabby cause I feel awful and it took 2 hrs for the appt when I only saw him 6 minutes.
That clinic has not given me another name for the thyroid dr tho so I need to start somewhere else. I do have a previous Dr I saw tho and shes the one who gave me the thyroid meds Im on now. I saw I have 2 refills but i really need to know my level soon to see if the dose im at now is ok. Just seems that no one knows a thing around here. I moved to a new state and missing my old dr's.
I typically get sick right after eating breakfast and it gets worse as day goes on.
I also called a different dr who saw me early on and begged for zofran or diclegis meds. they are at the store waiting for pick up now.
I lost the baby around 11 weeks. I bled terribly. Baby was perfect and a boy.
I have not been able to get pregnant since.
