Every single person on here will tell you to wait dear! And we're not saying it to be mean. Babies are expensive! They require toys, clothes, shoes, diapers, formula, baby food, doctor visits. They are not all fun and games. And it's not really fair to a baby to have a mother who can't provide all its needs. You have so many things to do in your life still. Don't rush it. Finish school. Go to college. Do the things you can't do with a baby on your hip! Your time will come and you'll be glad you waited!

pregnancy sickness at 6 months?
ylime129
I am 6 months pregnant and am still dealing with severe nausea. I went to my doctor and he said he'd order some test one being checking my gall bladder. All he did was a sonogram on the baby and everything was ok. I am sick 24/7. I don't throw up but I have only thrown up 3 or 4 times in my whole life (I just dont throw up). I am really constipated on top of it all and have to force myself to eat. I'm thinking about just going to the hospital since my dr. isn't really doing anything. Any suggestions?

Ginger
Many sources will tell you that ginger is the best remedy for sickness in pregnancy. Although there is a fair amount of medical research to show that ginger can be effective against pregnancy sickness, it is not true that it is universally beneficial. For some women, taking ginger can make symptoms worse, trigger new problems such as heartburn, or even be unsafe.
Ginger is a common Chinese remedy, based on the traditional system of yin and yang and other opposing factors, including heat and cold. Ginger is a "hot" or "yang" remedy and will make sickness worse if you are already too hot - not only in temperature but also in terms of your internal energies. Ginger will suit you if you feel and look cold, want hot drinks, keep wrapping yourself up in layers of clothing and blankets, feel miserable, introspective and uninterested in your surroundings.
If ginger is appropriate for you, avoid ginger biscuits as these contain too much sugar and insufficient ginger to be effective. Any temporary relief from your symptoms will be due to an increase in your blood sugar levels. You could try making a tea from grated root ginger. Steep this in boiled water, leave it to cool and sip it throughout the day. If you don't like the tea, it is possible to buy ginger capsules at some health food stores.
Ginger works in the same way as medicine, and it can have an adverse effect on your blood clotting mechanism. If you take it constantly for more than three weeks, you should ask your doctor to check your blood clotting. If you are taking prescribed anti-coagulant drugs, aspirin or other similar medicines, you should avoid it altogether. You should take no more than 3g of grated raw ginger a day.
Peppermint
If you constantly feel hot, strip off layers of clothing, want cool drinks, if you look hot and bothered, red-faced and feel irritable and hot tempered, peppermint or spearmint is a suitable "yin" or "cold" alternative. However, homeopaths believe that you should avoid peppermint if you decide to try homeopathic remedies as the strong mint aroma can inactivate them.
Try sipping peppermint or spearmint tea. Sugar-free peppermint sweets or chewing gum may also help. Peppermint or spearmint essential oil will not suit everyone, as its strong smell can make some sickness worse.
Other herbal remedies worth trying include lemon balm tea, slippery elm lozenges (available from health food stores) or small amounts of chamomile tea. With any of these remedies the effects can be quite short-lived, so you may need to experiment and perhaps rotate them to get the best effects.
Acupressure
You could try wearing wristbands which stimulate an acupuncture point (the Pericardium 6 or P6 point) which can relieve sickness. A review of different research studies concluded that acupressure can work for many pregnant women. Make sure that the button in the band is placed onto the acupuncture point. To locate it, use one hand on the inside of your opposite wrist, measuring up three finger widths from the crease between your hand and arm, between the tendons in the middle of your wrist. At the point where your third finger falls, lift the pressure off until you are just touching the skin and feel lightly for a slight dip - if you now press into this dip quite deeply it will feel bruised. Place the button on the wristbands at this precise point on both wrists - preferably putting the bands on first thing in the morning before you even get out of bed.
During the day, if you experience a wave of nausea, press on the button (one wrist and then the other) about 20-30 times at one second intervals, to give more of a stimulating boost to the acupuncture point. If you forget your wristbands, you can simply press on these two points, or ask someone to do it for you on both wrists together.
Other ideas
If you find your symptoms are worse with movement - for example when you're in the car - try listening to a CD such as MorningWell. These have a specially designed programme of music with underlying frequent pulsations, aimed at reconditioning the balancing mechanism in your inner ear. You will need to wear personal headphones so that the music (and the unheard pulsations) rebound against your ear.
Which complementary therapies could help?
It is essential to find a complementary practitioner who is trained, experienced in and insured to treat women who are in early pregnancy. Osteopathy and chiropractic can be effective, especially if you have had any problems with your skeleton in the past, including broken bones, whiplash injury or a fall onto your coccyx (tailbone). Any of these may have pushed your skeleton out of line, putting stress and pressure on the soft internal organs. Acupuncture and shiatsu practitioners will aim to correct any imbalance in your internal "life force" - two to three treatments will usually have an effect.
