Homeopathics for morning sickness?  

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
I have it really bad! Total 24 hr a day feeling like puking yet not puking. I can hardly take care of my kids. I was reading moondragon.org for some natual remedies and they listed this : "Try any one of these homeopathic remedies; Ipecac 30x, Nux vomica 6x, Cannabis 30x"

Does anyone have any experience with any of these? I still don't understand homeopathy--the more dilute it is, the stronger it is--yet it's the most gentle way to go? Is it really safe for pregnancy? I am willing to try anything.

I have used homeopathics a lot during pregnancy. The ironic thing is that during this stage, I am too sick and tired to research anything that might be helpful. It's more just a survival stage. I do know that homeopathic remedies are very safe. They are such minute quantities they can't possibly hurt. They work on the law of similars that like cures like. You might (and I might too!) also like to try Nux Vomica, for nausea.

oops, guess you mentioned that....I have had some luck with Nux.

I started the Ipecac yesterday afternoon and have taken it at intervals all day today--I think it's helping! I have not felt the overwhelming need to go lay down and hold perfectly still! I am going to keep taking it.

Hmmm...thanks for posting this. I think I will be heading the the HFS tomorrow. I just can't take much more of this feeling crappy, we have no clean dishes or laundry...and my poor Sam is in disposables because I can't manage to keep up with our clothes let alone the diaper laundry too. His first time in sposies, and he touched it and gave me this weird look...like, what the heck is this for??! LOL Thanks again for posting...
