My experience with morning sickness was different than what I expected. I never thought that morning sickness could happen at any time of the day. I thought that its name stands to what it really is. In my early weeks of pregnancy, I was always vomiting and I often felt tired and nauseous.
It was hard because I vomit whenever I eat. I was very picky with food. Whenever I smell a strong scent, I feel nauseated.
Morning sickness is common in early stages of pregnancy. I was suffering with morning sickness for 8 weeks and its occurrence became less until I was 12 weeks pregnant. There is no standard treatment for morning sickness. It depends upon the call of your body and its response to your pregnancy. However these are some of the things that you can try to lessen the severity of morning sickness:
* Take enough rest
* Listen to your craving (but lessen intake of unhealthy food)
* Avoid scents or smells that make you dizzy
* Always bring a cracker with you and munch on it whenever you feel hungry
* Avoid fatty foods
* Drink plenty of water (especially if you keep on vomiting to keep you hydrated)
* (This I haven't tried but this was tested by my 2-months pregnant friend) Try taking in (orally) Virgin Coconut Oil. (She said, her nausea and vomiting were decreased to up to 80%)
* Avoid taking strong medication
As I've mentioned in my previous post in the Early Signs of Pregnancy, every pregnancy is different so what didn't work for me might work for you and what worked for me may work for you.
My heartfelt advise is for you to enjoy every bit of pregnancy. Each experience is a blessing. The baby inside you is far more precious than anything else in the world!
