I had given up all hope... life had shunned me and vomit was my new reality
Then i saw on my "modern mommy app" an article about homeopathic morning sickness remedies
It starts off talking about how ginger and saltines don't help those mommies with severe morning sickness, and pharmaceuticals aren't a good answer... WOW how did it know at this very moment i was struggling against throwing up and completely debilitated, Though i had to get up and get ready for our big day at the kids market and baby sitting!?!
So i googled a homeopathic place in the burg, and what do you know the park that kids market was at is RIGHT DOWN THE ROAD from the homeopathy place! what what
i poured on some essential oils, vomited, ate a few bites of toast vomited, then chewed some peppermint gum and packed up and headed to my destiny
The lady at the place was not the usual homeopathic expert that is their, so she answered my questions with some kind of gibberish and left me more confused that ever, but what i found out was
~you must not touch the pellets
~you cannot drop the pellets
~ you must dissolve the pellets under your tongue
There were many options in choosing which remedy i needed, i chose the:
"Nux Vomica: Nausea is worse in the morning and from eating. The stomach is very sensitive to pressure. If necessary, Nux Vomica can be taken in alternation with Ipecacuanha."
Well all i can say is wow... I had to use pretty hard core medicine with the first three babies, that was after aroma therapy, vitamin therapy, acupressure, self hypnosis, and a slue of other random things that always seemed to make me feel more and more depressed about being pregnant.
It doesn't take ALL the nausea away, but it definitely takes the edge off, enough for me to shove some high protein food in my mouth, which then gets me able to function. Also tic tacs, yes you red that right, Tic Tacs are a wonderful fix for a slight stomach upset. So i am not sick enough to justify a pellet of what ever is in homeopathic remedies, but i do feel like i need something... Tic Tac!!
I hope this continues to work! I am feeling quite hopeful even excited about being pregnant. Maybe this one will be a beautiful pregnancy, maybe i can enjoy the next 8 months of my life, maybe i should have tried homeopathy 5 years ago, then i may have been able to finish my bachelors.........
or not whatever ;)
