Has anybody dealt with car sickness/motion sickness? I am starting to wonder if this is affecting Brodie. He has thrown up in the car three times in the last month (what a mess!) with no apparent illness or reason. It has been when we have been in the car for an hour or so. He gets kind of quiet and then says his tummy hurts, and then wham – puke everywhere! As upsetting as it is for him, it is equally troublesome for me, since I have to clean him, his clothes, the car and take apart his car seat and wash everything! The car seat takes at least a half hour to put back together!
I have thought of throwing it away, just because I didn’t want to take it apart. Anyhow, does anyone have any ideas, other than meds? I get severe motion sickness, so I wouldn’t be surprised if this bothers him too. I have those wrist bands for me, but I didn’t know if they would work on kids, or if he would keep them in place. Any thoughts would be appreciated! Thanks!!I notice that Bryce throws up more often in the car. Especially if he’s just eaten or we have to tube-feed him while we’re driving. I get pretty car sick too if I sit in the backseat. I know this doesn’t help him feel better, but maybe you could bring a little bucket or something for him to throw up in if needed and at least avoid a mess. My grandma used to say that taping a penny over your belly button would help motion sickeness. LOL I don’t know if it works.
