The very first time I used the Sea Band Morning & Travel Sickness Wristbands I was not only 6 months pregnant but also taking a cruise (don't ask!).  Since any sort of medication was out of the questions the Sea Band Morning & Travel Sickness Wristbands were really my only option.  

I didn't think that they would work, so "toughed out" my morning and sea sickness the first day. Upon arriving in Grand Cayman I literally wanted to sit down and kiss the earth that I was walking on.  

The next day I thought, I bought them may as well try them.  They did alleviate much of my  nausea but I found that the longer I wore them the less they worked.  I would occasionally have to add pressure to the pressure points to get me through the five star dinners on the cruise - not eating them all mind you but at least keeping my husband company. 

Since then I have tried them again from time to time on simply stomach sickness, nausea and vomiting in an effort to avoid using medication.  The Sea Band Morning & Travel Sickness Wristbands do help with the symptoms, but they end up wearing off and not lasting as long as I need to absolutely feel better. 

Would I recommend them? Sure, everyone reacts to morning sickness and motion sickness differently, they may provide you with just the help you need.

I wore these on a cruise and have no idea if they worked. I never got seasick or nauseous and was too afraid to take them off in case they were why. lol.

Interesting. I try to stay away from meds as much as possible, so I guess for at least some temporary relief, these might be worth it. Thanks for the info.
