Wife has been battling really bad nausea in her 1st trimester. Last kid we had, she ended up with pretty bad restless leg probably as a side effect of the anti-nausea medicine she took, that lasted the entire pregnancy. Are there any actual natural options to consider? Or a medicine that doesnt have sode effects of restless leg, etc?

I assume this board is mostly guys, but if anyone has any experience from their wives or there are any women here who have dealt with this before. Thanks

My wife used Preggie Pop Drops. Hope she finds something that helps!

Ginger candies seemed to help my wife.

Mine used ginger and some king of wristband for morning sickness. I think it helped but didn’t cure it.

Google vitamin b6 and unisom. Very safe—been around for years. Whatever chemical reaction it makes in your system is very effective for morning sickness. It kept me out of the hospital. (And use the sleep tabs—unisom puts a different medicine in their gel caps. You want the little tablets. Take a unisom at night, 2-3 b6 throughout the day.)

May want to rethink ginger beer with her being pregnant----or go all out and get ginger laced vape liquid to go with the ginger beer to get the fetus started on their road to recovery.

Pickles and sour things. Mine is 21 or 22 weeks, and her entire first trimester sour things kept her moving.

Semen

parents.com

[T]he cure for morning sickness may be exposing yourself to semen through either vaginal or oral sex. This would help your body develop a "tolerance" to paternal DNA, thus decreasing nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.

You can thank me later!

Vitamin b6 taken regularly and consistently (exactly every 24 hours) worked for me. Takes a few days to take effect. Didn't need the unisom added inm

The doc gave my wife (no pics) that b6 unison combo along with zofran for the really bad flare ups. She found sparkling water helped pretty well with the nausea fairly often as well. Almost no morning sickness for our first but the second pregnancy was hell for her pretty much the whole time. Baby is an angel most days though so at least it wasn’t a bad pregnancy followed by a really difficult baby to top it off.
