If you have morning sickness, fortunately there are many things you can do to cope. Here are some time tested remedies that help relieve some of the symptoms of morning sickness:
Eat several small meals per day instead of three large ones.
- Have some crackers and soda or water by the bed and try eating a few before you rise in the morning. An empty stomach often results in more nausea.
- Drink lots of fluids. Some women find carbonated water flavored with lemon to be quite soothing.
- Try some ginger or ginger ale, which is well known for alleviating nausea.
- Eat foods that are high in protein and carbohydrates.
- Avoid fatty or spicy foods, which are more likely to cause nausea.
- Get plenty of rest and take prenatal vitamins. If your vitamins make you nauseous, try taking them with meals.
- Avoid strong odors or smells that can induce nausea.
- Avoid lying down immediately after eating.
