A friend of mine this morning posted a Facebook link to an HG mother's request for advice. I thought I would take brief notes on the responses! Some were the inevitable "ginger and crackers," but most looked like they were coming from mothers who truly knew what they were talking about (i.e. other HG mothers).
Here are some of the suggestions:
- High-protein snacks, like almonds
- Zofran
- Peppermint tea
- Eating something every 10 to 15 minutes
- Diclectin - replica (U.S.) or the real thing (Canada)
- Caffeine-free coca cola, taken by the spoonful
- Cold foods and cold drinks
- Eating things that aren't bad to throw up later (bananas, etc.)
- Chamomile essential oils
- Acupuncture and acupressure
- Non-water fluids, and making sure to keep hydrated
- B-complex (P5P) and zinc supplements
- Vitamin B shots
- Ginger
- Medical cannabis
- Reflexology
- Hypnosis
- Nux vomica
- Aromatherapy
- Sour foods, like sour patches - "the brain has a hard time processing sour and nausea at the same time"

Thoughts, anyone?
