My first pregnancy with Mason was an absolute breeze. First trimester was pretty easy for me. Much easier than a lot of girls that I know. I barely had any nausea and I rarely threw up unless I took my prenatals on an empty stomach which I learned pretty quickly or if I ate scallops which was sad because I love scallops.
I would say that by 8 weeks tops all signs of nausea were gone. I had aversions sure but for the most part my morning sickness was non-existent.
That was not the case with Elena. I had a feeling from the very beginning that Baby #2 was Baby Girl #1. The main tip off was how different this pregnancy was from Mason’s. The main thing? I had way more morning sickness. I still wasn’t a big puker but with Elena I was constantly queasy and it never really went away.
Baby #3 has been a mixture of my pregnancy with Mason and Elena but the main thing that’s the same as Elena/Pregnancy #2 is the m/s. I’m almost 15 weeks and it still hasn’t gone away completely although it has been much better than it was with Elena at this point.
Unlike my pregnancy with Elena this time I have some relief
Preggie Pops and Drops are made by Three Lollies!
I can not say enough good things about the Preggie Pops and Drops! I love all the flavors that I have tried so far (especially the Spearmint and Soup Fruit flavors) and it really helps me when I get overcome by morning sickness.
Preggie Pops aren’t only for Morning Sickness though, they’re also great for labor. As you may or may not know along with labor sometimes causes waves of nausea whether it be from labor itself, transition or medicine taken during labor Preggie Pops can help you then too!
How are they helping?
Preggie Pops uses
- Essential oils flavors known to help stomach problems
- Aromatherapy
- Mode of delivery
- Sugars to combat hypoglycemic queasy stomach
Another great thing about Preggie Pops? They’re all natural!
I also love that Three Lollies the company behind Preggie Pops and Drops also makes Queasy Pops Kids:
I plan on stocking up before our next road trip since Mason tends to be a puker on long car rides! My poor little guy! And it will be much easier to get him to take this then some of the liquid anti-nausea medication I have for him!
Do you want to try preggie pops and drops for yourself!? Out of the 1st tri and morning sickness is no longer an issue? They’re also great for labor! Here’s your chance:
When I was pregnant I couldn’t find Preggie Pops anywhere in my town! I had to get a couple bags of peppermints instead, I’m still finding peppermints everywhere! haha
Don’t get up! LOL I never did find any relief from morning sickness when I had it!
I love Preggie Pops!
If I eat carbs in the morning I feel less sick throughout the day. I also feel better if I take my prenatals at night!
sleep!
Alto ive never been pregnant my sister would have huge bottles of seltzer during her first trimester
eat really light, bland stuff when you’re feeling nauscious
I am not sure firsthand, but my sister is pregnant, and I think this would be great for her.
I never had morning sickness with my daughter, I was super lucky I guess!
crackers and taking it easy

i think eating bread and crackers helps!
Making sure to eat something at the FIRST twinge of hunger!
I WANT TO WIN THIS FOR MY PREGNANT BEST GF!
EAT CRACKERS GIRL
saltines usually did the trick for me
i just had to wait until the afternoon to start eating
Dry food helps a lot (crackers etc).
Seabands
I liked to suck on lemon drops to ease morning sickness
Lots of sleep!
Take a good multi-vitamin! I switched and felt much better!
Nothing is helping me lately.
Unsalted crackers and room temperature water.
