Oh, morning sickness totally ruined my love for street food! I found that very cold things like a lemon popsicle or simple fruit salad helped calm my nausea instantly. Try finding your comfort food!

Sip ginger tea and eat dry crackers first thing in the morning. It really helps!

Prabha Pai · Answer

I had terrible nausea till the day I delivered my baby via C-section. Taking my doctor-prescribed anti-nausea medication on time was the only thing that kept me functional. Please ask your doctor for safe medicine rather than suffering.

I know it feels like this constant sickness will never end, but it usually disappears by the 14th week. Just take it one day at a time, drink small sips of coconut water, and trust that you will get through this.

Keeping hydrated is the main thing, so keep sipping water or buttermilk throughout the day. It gets much better in the second trimester, so stay positive! I managed it well and had a smooth normal delivery.

Homemade ginger water and basic glucose water are very cheap and work wonders. Don't waste money buying expensive pregnancy-safe ginger candies or specialty drinks. Keep your medical fund saved for tests and scan costs instead.

Honestly, I just survived on cold apples and plain rice in my first trimester. Now in my 3rd trimester, I'm just tired of all the symptoms, but trust me, this phase will pass. Just hang in there and keep your sick bag close!

Small sips of lemon-ginger water or sucking on peppermint can help soothe your stomach naturally. Avoid oily and heavy food in the morning. But if you are unable to keep any liquids down, please consult your doctor immediately.

My MIL made me drink hot water with cumin and fennel seeds, and it actually helped with the morning sickness. In joint families, everyone has a remedy, but just stick to what suits your stomach best!

Carry dry toast or biscuits in your office bag and eat them before you even get out of bed or start your commute. It prevents an empty stomach which triggers vomiting. Don't try to cook heavy meals right now, order healthy options or take family help to save time.

Mili Murugan · Answer

My mother told me that eating small, frequent meals instead of three heavy ones helps keep nausea away. I hope this simple tip helps you feel better soon. Take care of yourself.

I literally just delivered last month and remember this so clearly. Eating dry rusk the moment I woke up was a lifesaver. If you feel too weak, don't hesitate to ask your gynac for safe tablets, they help a lot.
