Malfunctioned :(  The sea bands were not working and my Dr. said that these bands were like little miracles.  It is a wristband that sends a signal to your brain to control the nauseas and vomitting.  It does work but my M/S comes and goes a lot.  I really depend on it.  The Dr. has to prescribe it for you.  I wish I could teell the whole world about it because it was a big help. Have you been ok since that one night?

Sorry to hear about the morning sickness during the night, beautifulgirls.  That would be awful!  I had trouble one time at night and that was it, but it was miserable.  You might want to try "Sea Bands".  It sounds like they're the same thing as prima bella, but you said it stopped working, so I wasn't sure if it malfunctioned or if it stopped holding back the M/S.

Where do you get the Lara Bars?  I think I might try the shakes since jaded said they are good. I wonder if they have strawberry. I would love that flavor and then the Vanilla.  I am not a big chocolate person. Unless its a hershey bar :)

Sadly, I have M/S 24 hours a day. Nights are my worse.  I am up until 3-4am.  And I am so upset because my Prima Bella stopped working and that is such a big help when I have a really bad attack. I did buy the gummy prenatals today.  They seem to be full of what I need.

LARA bars are really good and theyare one of the only bars made with actual real food and not artificial stuff...
the belly bars had too much high fructose corn syrup and artificial ingredients to make me even want to try them...
my favorite snack when i feel like crap is chocolate milk.  lots of protein, vitamins and minerals and it settles my stomach well.

I've had the vanilla belly-bar shake.  They are pretty good, especially when you can't keep anything down as they have a lot of nutritiion.

I take my pre-natal at night, because of the M/S.  I recommend trying it if you can't keep them down during the day.  The thing to do, also, is eat shortly before taking them and going to bed so that you don't take them on an empty stomach.

yeah, I can't take prenatals yet.  I did see there were gummy prenatals also.  I am wondering if they would settle better.  They don't have any iron in them so that should help with the nausea.  I will have to eat iron rich foods instead.  Maybe between the gummies and the bars I will be able to get the nutrients I need.  I will go out tomorrow and buy them, thanks!!!!

They have a LOT of flavors and my personal favorite is Nuts Over Chocolate.  Its much more filling than normal snack bars but has 100% folic acid and a bunch of other vitamins.  If I weren't able to take prenatal vitamins I'd be confident I was getting the important stuff.
