How to overcome morning sickness during early pregnancy?
The morning sickness is really getting to me; I feel nauseous almost all day. What are some effective home remedies or tips to help overcome severe morning sickness in early pregnancy? I desperately need some relief.
Oh I had terrible vomiting till the 5th month, so I completely feel your pain! What saved me was cold apple slices and sniffing fresh lemon whenever the smell of tadka triggered me. If you are throwing up absolutely everything, please ask your doctor for safe pregnancy-safe anti-nausea meds.
Sipping ginger water or sucking on lemon candies is an excellent way to keep the nausea under control. Eat very small meals throughout the day instead of three large ones so your stomach never stays completely empty.
No need to buy fancy ginger lozenges or expensive remedies. Just keep normal parle-g biscuits by your bedside, have small sips of warm water, and avoid spicy or oily foods for a few weeks.
I found that keeping myself hydrated with fresh coconut water and buttermilk worked wonders during my early months. Just take it easy, listen to your body, and don't force yourself to eat heavy meals if you don't feel like it.
I used to panic that keeping crackers next to my bed wouldn't be enough and that vomiting would dehydrate the baby. Try nibbling on a dry biscuit before you even lift your head off the pillow, it really helps calm the stomach, but keep your doctor informed if you can't keep any liquids down.
