Motion Sickness Relief
15
items Ive always struggled with motion sickness since I was super little. Once I got pregnant, it got so bad I could barely be in the car for 5 minutes. We made frequent 8 hour trips between MO and TX, so I got really good and fighting it.

Sleeping it away
Sometimes just sleeping during the ride is the best way to avoid it. However, you must be comfortable to do that. Here’s a list of how I get and stay comfortable
Noise-canceling earbuds (or even headphones) are my absolute go-to when trying to avoid getting sick while in the car. The sound of the car is what gets me sick the most. I don’t go a road trip without them

Headphones for those that don’t like earbuds. Anything to drown out the road noise in the car
