sickness during pregnancy

My 17 year old daughter is pregnant for the second time (1st child is now 21 months old)she is suffering from sickness every single day. she is sick upon waking in the morning (yellow watery sick) and continues to be sick throughout the day. She was sick during her 1st pregnancy but not as much as this (probably once to three times a week previously)she has not tried anything to alleviate the sickness and i would welcome any advice from you. She is approximately 14 - 15 weeks pregnant at the moment. thanks

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.

You can try the following remedies based on the symptoms(these are tips given by a great Homeopath Dr bishamber Das:
1.Nux Vom 9c alternated with Antim Crud 6c for a few days.flatulence without sickness is covered by Nux
coated tongue for antim crud.
2. Ipecac Excessive flatulence with sickness & hert burn. ecellent remedy for morning sickness.
3. Colchicum : Smell of food brings nausea which is also worse with motion sickness.
if you can give more details of her symptoms, like what causes it to aggravate, what makes her feel better, her emotional statenow, her thirst etc , it will be easier to arrive at a remedy.
But my best bet is Ipecac because it works for any type of nausea.
Also try giving her Nat phos 6x: 3 pills thrice a day.

Thanks for your reply. she vomits as soon as she wakes up, yellow vomit and she then vomits again after her first meal of the day usually toast (without butter as she does not like it) she drinks a lot of water during the day but says she isnt excessivly thirsty, she has always drank a lot of water. she continues to feel sick throughout the day byt usually only vomits after her before and after breakfast. nothing she eats relieves the feeling of nausea and the smell of food does not make her feel sick. her diet is not too bad eats a lot of fruit but doesnt like vegetables, eats salads and loves cheese, has a weird craving for concrete and has eaten a patch of concrete from the wall in her bedroom, (my nine year old used to do this as a small child maybe i have weird kids!) her emotional state is up and down as you would expect as baby was not planned and she was really unsure of what to do, feels she cannot cope. she is the oldest of my 4 daughters have others of 16 and 14 who she is very close to. has always seemed older than her age and likes to be in charge, would welcome any further advice. she had a scan yesterday and have confirmed she is 15 weeks and 4 days pregnant

Calc carb, and calc phos are both indicated for eating indigestible substances.

Hi, my daughter has been taking Ipecac for the past 3 days now, 2 every 2 hrs for first 8 hrs then 2 4x a day, she says it is having no effect at all on her sickness, is she taking the correct dose or should she try something else, bearing in mind that she is pregnant is it safe for her to try other remedies after already taking one or should she stick with the Ipecac for a while longer. any suggestions would be very welcome.

If Ipecac is not working, it is better not to continue . Is she taking the Nat Phos 6x?
Nat Phos 6x is biochemic & does not have any side effects even if taken for a long time. For sour vomiting it is very effective.Why dont you just try givin Cal Carb 30 c 1 dose only as suggested by Walkin
