suck on mints / boiled sweets. There are some lollypops called preggypops or something but you may as well use regular sweets.
try an antisickness wrist band (can be bought from chemists) which works on pressure points on wrist.
if it gets really bad or continues well into the 2nd trimester then mention it to your midwife.

Ah. I was just about to say it should stop soon enough... until I read nudgescuffler's comment. Oh dear, lets hope you're not one of the unlucky ones!
If you're actually being sick, and after everything you eat, I would strongly suggest you see your midwife. Your baby can't be getting much nutrition. Poor you :-(

hi bondgirl, i was nauseous and sick on my first pregnancy and didn't cope well at all (tried ginger, eating small amounts often) etc but nothing much worked and I was physically sick morning, noon and night until 21 weeks. it stopped for a while, then came back again at 36 weeks!
second time around (I'm 11 weeks gone) i've got the same nausea and vomitting (boo!) although I do seem to be coping with it better this time.
tips include: avoid fatty foods, dairy foods, sweet stuff, and rich or highly flavoured foods as these are more likely to make you throw up.
suck on sour/bitter hard boiled sweets like lemon drops (don't bother buying the expensive preggypops as they don't work any better and cost the earth!) as the constant swallowing helps combat some of the nausea.
I've also found wearing 'fat pants' or spanx really good as the tightness (make sure they are not too tight) around the tummy helps ease some of the queasiness. I'm definitely worse on the days I don't wear the pants than on the days I do.
try and eat a piece of toast or crackers before getting out of bed, and when you do get up, don't move too quickly or you'll throw up.
otherwise, congrats on the pregnancy and fingers crossed it will ease for you when the placenta kicks in around 13 weeks.
