Please help!!!

My wife is 6 weeks pregnant and is in almost the same situation as rn21666. I am desperate to give her relief. With our previous pregnancy, I rushed her to the ER about every 2 weeks... and it continued long after birth... until about a year ago. Since the GPs, ER docs, OB/GYNs AND the GI docs have no idea what causes her to be so sick, they slapped the "IBS" label on her.

Now, she is pregnant again and is very, VERY ill (again). Her OB says the illness isn't related to her pregnancy... but I know better.

Please, people... can you help with advice. We've tried EVERYTHING... ginger root, tamarind, etc. etc. etc.

No one has been able to give good advice.

So, I am praying that someone out on this blog is reading this and knows what she is going through... and has another idea to try.

With our last pregnancy, her pain, nausea and vomiting occurred so often that I came within about 8 hours or so of ordering an abortion... simply because of my wife's long term health.
