I have hit the fun nausous stage of my wonderful pregnancy (not a big surprise...I was very sick with my first) and I forgot how crappy I can feel. Even water makes me sick :(
Anyway, I ran across these and I was wondering if anyone has tried them and if they did anything for you? Supposedly they work by triggering a nerve that helps 'reset' the rhythms of your stomach. I just started experimenting massaging that area on my wrist when I really feel like I am going to lose it, and it really does seem to help. So, has anyone tried these and did it do anything for you???

Here is the link: https://www.biobands.com/index.htm

I know they also offer electronic pulse ones, but they cost $70 and I really didn't want to spend that kind of money, although they would probably work a lot better than these.

Anyway, here is the link on it. For $11, I was willing to try (they probably offer them in the store too, but I haven't found them yet.)
 
I used these, but they didn't work for me. I am sorry that you feel so sick - this period is not easy! Strangely enough, preggipops (these little fruit candies) helped alleviate it somewhat while I sucked on them...You can find them on the net but I got them from Target. I also tried accupuncture for the first time in an effort to try to stay away from the meds my dr suggested. It didn't hurt at all and I went to 3 sessions in total. Accupuncture worked for me - I still had ms, but it was considerably lessened. The accupuncturist gave me one of these bands to use as well with magnets on the pressure points - but I don't know if it worked.

I hope that you feel better soon! It is very hard to believe now, but it does pass.
 
I tried them and, unfortunately, they did not work for me. Nothing for the first 4 months worked for me. I am so sorry you are going through it. It is truly bad. No way around it, no way to sugarcoat it...BUT, IT DOES PASS!!!!! And, morning sickness is said to be a great sign that the babies are doing well.

HANG IN THERE.

We have sailboat and I used them on the boat, they did seem to reduce some motion sickness, but not all and I wasn't pregnant at the time. Try your hardest to get foods down like crackers. I had am sickness with #2 but mine was the kind that went away when I ate.
