    As the months go by my nausea and reflux are getting worse. If I smell something I find disagreable I get all nauseous and sometimes vomit but even if I don't I heave and feel terrible for some time. Some things I eat make me feel heartburn and reflux.
    I'm hoping you can give me some tips to deal with this. it's getting worse and worse.
    Thaks.

    Your nausea can actually be caused by your reflux. I too, still have days that I feel like I have morning sickness all day. Just feel nauseous. Anyway, talk to your dr about maybe using a medicine like Zantac or Pepcid (I currently use Pepcid AC). Those may help you with both symptoms.

    I agree with pp. It can all be related. Definitely speak with your dr. Around 26-27 weeks, the relux got so bad I would wake up choking on my own bile in the middle of the night. It was so disgusting and utterly horrible. Tums and Maalox were NOT working one bit. They ok'd me to start taking Zantac. So, I got Zantac 75 mg and that worked for about 2 weeks. It quit working, so I switched to Zantac 150 mg and it's been better. I have to be very careful not to eat too much at one time and to stay away from "red" stuff like spaghetti sauce, fruit juice and stuff like that and no acidic fruit, etc. So far the 150 mg is working and I pray it doesn't stop working.

    I too would get nausea feeling from the heartburn and reflux. I hope you find a "cure" soon...it definitely is miserable...I can totally sympathize with you.

    I am a big fan of the Zantac and take the 150 every night before bed. Sometimes, I don't make it through the day though and wind up taking it earlier. I think once you start on that, it will make a world of difference.

    My reflux makes me cough and gag and if I don't take care of it I will vomit. It is aweful. My OB said I could take Zantac 75 up to 2x a day. I currently take it in the morning after breakfast and then take 2 tums before bed. Occasionally I will take it before bed also, if I have eaten something I shouldn't have or I just don't feel right. I will be taking it 2x a day as it doesn't seem to be cutting it just the once anymore. Good luck, hope you feel better soon.

    I agree the reflux is probably whats making you so naseaus. I had it so bad with my twins I have nightmares about it. I hope your DR prescribes something and you get som relief soon.
