Finding out you're pregnant is an exciting time. Morning sickness during pregnancy is caused by hormonal changes, vitamin deficiency, low blood sugar, strong smells, fowl odors, lack of exercise, fatigue, stress, constipation, anxiety and worry about pregnancy.
Some women never have even the slightest touch of queasiness. Some are ill in the morning and recover by lunch. And some stay sick all day for days on end, wondering why it's called "morning sickness" when it lasts 24 hours.
No one wants to sit around feeling miserable, so be pro-active. Something as small as taking your prenatal vitamins later in the day if you have trouble keeping them down can make a huge difference. Here are some things you can do to help prevent or ease the symptoms of morning sickness:
Tip #1: Vitamin B-6 + Vitamin B-12
Tip #2: Preggie Pop Drops
Tip #3: Snack Often
Tip #4: Brown Sugar Cubes with Peppermint Oil
Tip #5: Ice Cubes with Lemon Juice
Tip #6: Chamomile Oil
Tip #7: Fresh or Ginger Chews
Tip #8: Natural Ginger Ale: Club Soda + Agave + Ginger + Fresh Mint
Tip #9: Almonds (or a high protein snack)
Tip #10: Know That Eventually It Will Pass
