Unisom and B6?

His anyone taken this for morning sickness?  It was recommended by my OB, but I forgot to ask if I can take it everyday... I'm so weird about taking medication, but i have taken it a few times in the last few weeks and it helps!!  Does anyone know how much you can take and if you can take it everyday?  I'm having the hardest time combatting my morning sickness and have found this is the only cure for me.

B6 has been saving my life! I dont take Unisom because I still have a toddler who gets up quite a bit, but the B6 was prescribed to me for 1/2 a pill 3X a day. My pills are 50 mg (so 25 mg 3 x a day). It really is a miracle how much it helps!

B6 is amazing for morning sickness. I had very bad all-day-sickness weeks 6-13 and my doctor said you can take up to 200mg a day of B6. I have 100mg pills so i would wake up, eat something then take a B6 to help durning the day. I have trouble sleeping as well so i take unisom at night with a B6. Lifesaver! The unisom really knocks you out so i started with only half a pill. Hope this helps you out.

I started with just B6 (i only do 25mg 3x a day), and later added Unisom. I started with a half tablet (because the first time I took it, I did a full tablet, and I was a groggy zombie the whole next day), but after a few weeks, I moved up to 3/4 and then a whole tablet (i might have been able to go straight to a whole, but did the 3/4 for about 4 days first, since I'd had the groggy issues, so I could start a full over a weekend).

I moved up to the full tablet partially because I am also taking Unisom for early-morning insomnia (waking at 3-4 am) and the 1/2 had stopped working for that.

I am still having morning (all day) sickness, but it is tolerable most of the time, even though most days I can't eat all that much. Sometimes i have moments, usually early evening, when I can eat almost normally, but I'm still fairly nauseous a lot. I'm scared what it would be like if I wasn't taking the B6 and Unisom!

I'm curious, are these both over the counter? I'm having horrible morning sickness and was wondering what to take. I don't ave my appointment for a while, so I was hoping to find something in the mean time. Which unisom is it? What is the main ingredient in the unisom?
