If you are like me, I am a victim. When I get pregnant, instant morning sickness, and afternoon sickness, and oh please, let's not forget night sickness. I will throw up from the simple smell of breakfast and if I am lucky, I will be able to eat lunch and dinner without laying on the couch wanting to die.
With Lily, I had Hyperemesis Gravidarum. I was so ill that I was in and out of clinics and hospitals.
I am terrified that it is going to happen again. The second I start feeling nauseous, I either throw up or have to lay on the couch, because I can't do anything. Which simply, does not work when you have 2 kids.
I remember shopping when I was pregnant with Lily, and I came across Preggie Pops by Three Lollies. I thought to my self, typical waste of money on a product that will work as well as those balance bands, and I went about my way.
This pregnancy, the sickness started early and I was not willing to go through what I did with Lily, on a daily basis. Three Lollies was kind enough to send me samples on their Preggie Pops and Preggie Drops.
I decided to go with the Preggie Pops first. I waited until my morning sickness hit it's peak and in goes the sucker. Instantly, I mean within a minute or so, my nausea was gone. I continued to suck on the sucker, until it vanished down to a stick. I actually felt normal again. I threw a couple in my purse and waited until the next batch of sickness to hit me, so I could use the Drops.
Around 8 pm, I started to get the icky, sticky, sickly feeling and I knew what was happening. I popped in a Drop and as I continued to use it, the sickness went away again. Now, these drops remind me of War Heads, you remember that candy right? I had to keep reminding myself to only use them when nauseous.
Information about Preggie Pops from Three Lollies
Childbirth educators have historically recommended sour flavored pops for labor because they were perceived to be less likely to exacerbate queasy stomachs. Lavender has been widely used in aroma therapy for relaxation and sometimes for upset stomach as well. Mint has long been used in both oral and aroma therapies for upset tummies. Ginger is an ancient remedy for tummy troubles and research shows that mint has been used for over a hundred years.
We use the natural essences from these sources to flavor our Preggie Pops. For nausea caused by hypoglycemia, even the sugar and brown rice syrup in our pops can be effective. In fact even the mode of delivery is therapeutic as only a small amount is delivered to the stomach at a time. So, part of why Preggie Pops work rests on where your morning sickness is coming from, which is still rather poorly understood. The overwhelming response from our customers is that our special formulation does work for most women.
In development of our Preggie Pops we also incorporated what women requested or recommended. Our pops are for both labor and morning sickness and we have tried to address each phase with specific flavors. However, our customers report using all flavors with success for both labor and morning sickness.
Preggie Pops use only natural flavors and colors and there are no medications to interfere with other therapies or complicate your pregnancy.
In summary: Our Preggie Pops work by a combination of:
Specific essential oils flavors known to help stomach problems
Aromatherapy
Mode of delivery
Sugars to combat hypoglycemic queasy stomach
And, they are safe because they are all natural
