My 10 yr old daughter gets car sick. She used to only have a problem if she tried to read, or play her DS in the car. Now it happens even if she's just sitting there. She's fine for short rides around town, but anything longer than 15-20 mins is a problem. She has a field trip coming up this month, and she'll have a long bus ride. She's very worried about having motion sickness on the bus. I was thinking of trying Sea Bands. Has anyone used them for car sickness?
They helped me! I used them both in the car, and for morning sickness!
Yes, those things are awesome!
I have always had a terrible time with motion sickness. The Sea Bands work wonderfully for car, bus, train, or larger airplanes for me. I currently live in Japan. I regularly use the Sea Bands when I take a bus or train here. They help a lot for easing my motion sickness. (They haven't worked as well for me on the smaller airplanes and ironically on any ship or ferry boat. However, wearing them is better than not wearing them.) The two things that have helped me the most when it comes to motion sickness are using the Sea Bands and eating mints. My only complaint about the Sea Bands is that the little ball that applies the pressure to your wrist can start to feel painful after wearing them for more than a few hours. You have my vote for giving them a try. That, and buy a big bag of her favorite mint candy.
yes! My daughter also gets car sickness pretty bad. Hers will start with in 10 minutes. We have used sea bands and they have worked great for her! We call them magic bracelets :)
My son wears them for car sickness. He also chews mint gum. It made a noticeable difference.
My son's friend is over right now and he gets motion sick in the car on long rides too. He says they help. My oldest uses them on boats and swears by them.
