What Can You Do About Pregnancy Morning Sickness?

If you are expecting a child, you are probably already suffering from pregnancy morning sickness or dreading the nausea, vomiting and queasiness that you know will come one day. Many mothers-to-be only have to deal with morning sickness early in their pregnancies. Others may continue to suffer from bouts of nausea and vomiting for as long as six months. But at some point during their pregnancies, a full 75% of all pregnant women experience symptoms. This is one instance where comfort is not found in numbers, however. All pregnant women are in search of a natural cure to help curb the nausea and vomiting, especially women who are responsible for caring for young children or who are holding down jobs outside the home for whom pregnancy morning sickness is particularly incapacitating.

While it may be good to know that, according to several studies, you are much less likely to miscarry if you experience pregnancy morning sickness, you still need to find a safe method to ward off the unpleasant bouts of nausea and vomiting. Several natural home remedies exist and many of these have been effectively and safely used for decades by pregnant women in many different countries to overcome nausea, vomiting and other symptoms.

Foremost among such morning sickness remedies is acupuncture, a safe and proven method that the medical profession approves of. Acupuncture controls nausea by stimulating precise acupoints located in the wrist area to relieve the symptoms associated with pregnancy morning sickness. Acupuncture therapy is popular among people who feel sick when they are on boats or other moving vehicles. Although you can visit an acupuncturist, the easiest way to use this remedy is to wear an acupuncture wrist band. You can purchase one of these bracelets in many drugstores and in all stores that sell travel-related items. Acupuncture therapy has helped many mothers-to-be cope with nausea and vomiting.

Adopting a special meal plan is a second safe remedy recommendation. Women who eat many small meals during the day have found that keeping their stomachs full helps to ward off the queasiness and nausea, especially if the meals contain foods with carbohydrates. To obtain maximum relief from symptoms, keep crackers or toast by your side to munch on in between the meals. Some pregnant women may shy away from this plan, fearing excessive weight gain, but the principal objective at this point in your pregnancy should be to ward off symptoms. Any extra weight you may gain can be lost later.

Ginger is a natural home cure for pregnancy morning sickness that is extremely popular. This spice has long been used across the globe by pregnant women to overcome nausea and vomiting. Flat ginger ale used to be a traditional cure for children suffering from upset stomachs a few years ago, and ginger popsicles are often given to chemotherapy patients to help them cope with the vomiting and nausea that are a side effect of the treatment. If you want to try this age-old remedy to overcome your pregnancy morning sickness, you can drink ginger ale or make a hot drink out of ground ginger and hot water. Eating ginger candy or ginger popsicles is also an effective way to cope with nausea and other symptoms.

Surprisingly, potato chips are widely used as a cure for pregnancy morning sickness. Apparently, eating salty or vinegar-flavored potato chips helps many women to cope with nausea and vomiting. The explanation for this is that women tend to produce more saliva when they are pregnant and this contributes to their symptoms. Salty potato chips have the effect of drying up excess saliva and warding off nausea. This is a favorite cure among expecting mothers, but it’s important to choose chips that have the least quantity of artificial additives and to avoid any potato chips made with Olestra (an ingredient that is found in fat-free foods).

Most women will find relief using one or more of the safe remedies described above. The few mothers-to-be who find that none of the above cures for pregnancy morning sickness work for them should not hesitate to ask their physician about prescription medications. Anti-nausea prescription medications are available, but most pregnancy healthcare providers will only prescribe them in serious cases that threaten to affect the health of the mother and the fetus.
