The best thing you can do to help with morning sickness is to eat several small meals throughout the day. Morning sickness is often caused by going to long with out eating. Also keep a pack of crackers by your bed to nibble on before you even get out of bed in the morning. If you feel yourself getting sick throughout the day take the time to stop and grab a little something to eat. You will be amazed how much this can help with your morning sickness.

Answer 3

Make sure you are getting enough water during the rest of the day. Sometimes morning sickness is caused by a lack of water in your system. Also, skip a day of your prenatal vitamin and see if you feel better. If so, ask your doc to switch your prenatal.

Good luck on your new wee one!

Answer 4

The main cause of morning sickness is a combination of issues related to the chemical changes your body is going through. Mix a pinch of nutmeg powder with a table spoon of gooseberry juice, and take it thrice a day. Sip little by little ginger juice mixed with honey before you get out of bed.

I drank a lot of sprite to setttle my stomach. lol but it didn't work. I KNOW THAT MORNING SICKNEss is like the worse feeling ever, well its all worth is once the baby gets here but anyways.
Eat crakers- Cheez-it cause they have flavor, drink a lot of fluids. And stay away from smells that make you feel sick.
Also like someone said eat breakfast as soon as you wake up so the stomach acid won't build up. You know the salty stuff that u throw up when your stomach is empty. But make sure you drink plenty of fluids, i couldn't hold water down, i even threw up water, but i had to keep drinking it. GOOD LUCK AND I HOPE U FEEL BETTER. N HAV A HEALTY BABY.
It'll be over soon ad then you can eat everthing. :-)

The only thing that worked for me was eating breakfast right when I got up. I tried the ginger ale, peppermints, soda crackers and water and none of that worked for me. It's just kind of trial by fire! Good luck!
