Just a quick question I forgot to ask the midwife this morning so I thought this would be the second best place!

Im travelling to the Isle of Wight on Saturday from Leeds. This involves driving to Portsmouth (about 6 hours) and getting a ferry to the island.

Since Im having to get off the bus twice on a morning to be sick on the way to work, and thats only a 1/2 hour journey, I dont want to have to keep making my inlaws pull over, so I was wondering if theres anything Im allowed to take, or a way to keep the sickness minimal?

Thank you in advance

You can try wearing a "sea band" which is like a lil bracelet worn on the wrist to prevent motion sickness. I wore them when I was terribly ill and it did help a lot.

As far as medicine, there are a few things you can but I suggest you call your doc of midwife for their advice on what you should and shouldn't take. They may be able to prescribe you something.

Hope you feel better soon

Thank you

im sure there is a tablet usually prescribed for travl sickness for morning sickness! ask your doc hun xx

I highly suggest the Sea Bands. I've been wearing them for the nauseousness, and they have really helped.

Where are they available from? A chemists or something?

I got mine at Walgreens. Not sure if you guys have that, it's a pharmacy (is that what a chemist is?).

Oh, yeah sorry! Keep forgetting it's not all british on here. Duh haha

I went to Walgreens in the US when I was on my hols, but we don't have them over here. Ill have a look tomorrow before we head off in our nearest pharmacy
