Morning Sickness
Morning sickness is nausea or vomiting during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy. More than half of pregnant women have morning sickness during the first trimester. Morning sickness unfortunately can happen at any time of the day or night. The cause of morning sickness is not well understood, but hormones seem to be involved. Morning sickness cannot always be prevented. Some women find diet and lifestyle changes helpful in reducing symptoms. Avoid things that produce the symptoms, such as certain foods and smells. Smaller, more frequent meals are advised. Dry crackers or toast, tea, cold liquids, and carbonated drinks may help lessen morning sickness.
Thankfully for most women it usually goes away by the second trimester.
