Not only did I take metoclopramide/raglin, I took Zofran and Morphine throughout my pregnancy. I had a continual pump/catheter in place.(Husband joked that the baby was going to be going to Betty Ford before she could come home)If it weren’t for those drugs I don’t know what would have happened to either myself or my baby. Whom by the way was born healthy. I lost 7 pounds, gained that back + 5 pounds while pregnant. When she was born she weighed in at 7 pounds 12 ounces! Sometimes you have to do what you have to do.

I have taken metoclopramide a couple of times and it is like a wonder drug. I have always had stomach problems and my biggest worry about pregnancy is the morning-sickness, so this is very exciting to read about for me!

Well I knew that.. I took Reglan throughout my first pregnancy 6 years ago! LOL She turned out just fine (as did I) Zofran worked MUCH better though.
