Suggest Remedy For Frequent Vomiting During Pregnancy
Hello.
My stepson and daughter in law just moved here (FL) from Columbus OH about 5 weeks ago. She is 3 months pregnant and they have a 3 year old. She is having a hard time of it. She cannot keep anything down. Everything she tries to eat now comes back up. She had this problem when she was pregnant with her now 3 year old. She thew up at LEAST 8 times per day until the baby was born. When the baby was born, she stopped throwing up. We are seeing the same type of thing with the new baby. However, being in a new town and trying to find work, this has made things nearly impossible. She has tried Fenegren(sp?) suppositories, but they now do not work. They just make her tired and she continues to throw up. She has an appt. with an OBGYN tomorrow, but I was also researching the disease, Multiple Enchondromatosis, which she also has and she lost an index finger because of it.....what can we do to help her?

Hi
I think I have understood your concern.
I will suggest her small, frequent meals.
Avoid fasting for more than 3 hours.
Avoid deep fried foods, bakery products and refined sugars.
Cap Perinorm CR once a day and Tab ONDEM MD half hour before each meals; this will help to get control on vomiting.
Also blood TSH levels need to be checked. Avoid lying down just after meals.
Let her be happy, cool, meditate, think positive.
All things will be fine.
I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks
