I myself never had the problem, not even on long boat rides, and neither do my two elder children. However, I've noticed that my 8 month old spits up a LOT during car trips, and I'm wondering maybe we'll be making a whole lot more stops during trips in the near future!<br /><br />Really enjoy reading your blog by the way!<br />EleenaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-998204900912962092.post-90563697279681872942009-06-22T15:08:42.869-06:002009-06-22T15:08:42.869-06:00At least not all four have been car sick at the sa...At least not all four have been car sick at the same time... same trip, yes, same time, no.

Boats are the same thing - I have to be at the front to keep the wind blowing. <br /><br />But man, car sickness times 4?

I've tried to tell them to "look out the front window."

I can sympathize because I suffer from motion sickness, also. Flying and I totally do not mix. I was sick ( going thru barf bags like crazy) on a flight from England to the States . Apologizing the whole looong flight to the man sitting next to me. I would like to say that they will grow out of it but you and I know that is not true. You just get it under better control.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
