I just found out I'm pregnant, and I've been feeling so nauseous almost everyday. It's really new for me. Is this normal, and what exactly causes this feeling in early pregnancy?
Beta, this is just your body adjusting to the little one inside you, hamare yahan isse 'ji ghabrana' bolte hain. It usually happens because of hormonal changes, especially in the first three months. Don't worry, just keep taking small bites of dry toast or biscuits.
Think of it as a positive sign that your pregnancy is strong! I had terrible nausea till 14 weeks but keeping some ginger candy nearby really helped me push through. It will pass soon and you'll get your energy back.
Basically, the surge in hCG and estrogen slows down your digestion, which triggers that constant sick feeling. It's totally normal unless you are unable to keep even water down. If the vomiting gets too severe, definitely let your gynac know.
During my first checkup at the hospital, the care team explained that hormonal spikes cause this nausea. They gave me a great leaflet on managing it and told me to call their helpline immediately if I couldn't keep liquids down. Do discuss it clearly with your doctor during your next scan.
It is just a sign that your baby is growing and hormones are active. Try to rest as much as you can and take small, frequent meals instead of heavy ones.
Yaar, early pregnancy nausea is basically the worst feeling ever, like you are constantly seasick. Actually it's just your pregnancy hormones shooting up like crazy. It starts around 6 weeks for most people, but it usually gets much better after the first trimester.
