I'm a vege and had some morning sickness for maybe 2-3 weeks in the first trimester - just felt really nauseus in the afternoon/evening but never actually threw up.

I imagine there's a lot more to those people of other cultures who don't eat a lot of meat - they also probably don't live in big cities and inhale loads of pollution and smother themselves in chemicals etc!]]> Fri, 15 May 2009 14:21:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=687050&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#687050 <![CDATA[Vegetarian and Morning Sickness : Hi Shezhoping...

Hi Shezhoping...
It's through my naturopath... I think it's about 30 micrograms? It's called P-5-P

I was taking the Blackmores B6 for morning sickness and the health shop warned against taking it for too long because the other B vitamins get out of sync]]> Tue, 12 May 2009 09:36:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=684004&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#684004 <![CDATA[Vegetarian and Morning Sickness : Hi Lizze, how much B6 are you...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=683893&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#683893 Author: Shezzey

Hi Lizze,  how much B6 are you taking?  I posted a link on the Dec site that indicated that too much B6 can be dangerous for developing bubs.

i'm a vego, and no morning sickness yet :)
My mum said she got it at 5 weeks, but I'm still waiting.
I feel 100% not pregnant, but my bloods say I am, and I'm having a scan tomorrow.
I'm also taking B6 and Zinc supplements so maybe that helps. ]]> Mon, 11 May 2009 16:10:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=683484&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#683484 <![CDATA[Vegetarian and Morning Sickness : Totally agree that vegos don&#039;t...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=682262&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#682262 Author: Emmecat

Totally agree that vegos don't always have healthier diets.... *I* have a healthy diet but yes it's very easy to eat just as much crap on a vego diet as a meat eating one. Eating a rubbish diet as a vegan is a little harder but I guess one can always eat lots of processed tofu and soy stuff which is arguably even worse.

Think it comes down to individual makeup rather than willpower probably. I definately suprised myself about not gaining much weight as I always thought I'd put on heaps when pg. But just cos I haven't gained much doesn't mean I'll lose what I have put on easily lol.

I don't know about the vego thing and not gaining that much weight either. With Daniel even with throwing up daily by the time I was full term I had gained 30kg and that is NOT at all healthy and he was only 7lb 12oz so not massive either. It took ages to loose that weight.]]> Sat, 09 May 2009 17:08:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=682198&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#682198 <![CDATA[Vegetarian and Morning Sickness : I am a meat eater and didn&#039;t...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=682179&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#682179 Author: LadyLizard

I am a meat eater and didn't get much MS, just nausea and queasiness which went away when I ate something.

Worst of it was around 8-10 weeks (sorry!)

I don't know about vegos always having "healthier" diets- alot of the very unhealthy things that I have been craving haven't been meat products at all!

(bread, cheese, chocolate, crackers, chippies, hot cross buns..!) they aren't vegan though..

Maybe you just have more willpower than I do Emmecat.

Having said that though eating is pretty much back to normal now and total weight gain so far is only 6kg which seems to have stabilised (for now!!!) so I am feeling pretty good about that.]]> Sat, 09 May 2009 16:06:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=682179&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#682179 <![CDATA[Vegetarian and Morning Sickness : Apparently studies have shown...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=682145&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#682145 Author: Nutella

Apparently studies have shown that the people in cultures that rarely eat meat, tend not to get morning sickness! That is why I was wondering because it would just as likely be something in their genetic makeup that stops them getting sick.

I think the studies were based on how the liver was functioning with vegos having better liver function or something coz of not having to process meat or something like that!

Considering no-one knows what causes ms it seemed a bit of a long straw and def by the response so far is a lot of rubbish in NZ society!]]> Sat, 09 May 2009 15:23:36 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=682145&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#682145 <![CDATA[Vegetarian and Morning Sickness : I cant see why there&#039;d be...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=682107&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#682107 Author: KitKat

I cant see why there'd be any correlation between being a vego, or meat eater and morning sickness.

Id have thought there were numerous factors at play.

lol I hope so for your sake hun....but remember it might still be to come

On the plus side of being a vego- and the other vegos can let you know if this was the case for them- I've had a really healthy diet throughout my pg and not put on much weight at all... I was sitting at about 8 kilos weight gain...until these last couple of weeks then I've been eating everything not nailed down lol..so the total is maybe 11 kilos. But it's ALL baby. Literally. Gulp.

I am definitely a meat eater but haven't had morning sickness, only nausea. I don't think it really matters what diet you are on, except perhaps when you are on a healthy/not-healthy diet.]]> Sat, 09 May 2009 11:53:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=682019&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#682019 <![CDATA[Vegetarian and Morning Sickness : Darn it, I was counting on a miracle...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=682009&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#682009 Author: Nutella

Okay, I want to find out from vegetarian people out there, whether they had bad morning sickness when pregnant as according to studies, vegetarian diets in some cultures have resulted in little or no morning sickness. So I am curious as to whether this is the diet resulting in this or because they have different genetic makeups!

I am curious because even though I have been feeling not 100%, I sure as heck haven't experienced any full on morning sickness yet, and I am a vegetarian!]]> Fri, 08 May 2009 17:30:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26408&PID=681570&title=vegetarian-and-morning-sickness#681570
