Feeling nauseous every morning? Then follow our top tips and your own ideas to help relieve your morning sickness.
- Eat little and often. Bland, low-fat, high-carb meals are best.
- Drink loads of water and juice but avoid drinks that dehydrate, eg, coffee or alcohol.
- Keep dry crackers, rusks or biscuits to hand day and night.
- Tiredness can make it worse, so make sure you're getting enough sleep.
- Ginger tablets or capsules (from health food shops) are better at reducing nausea than ginger-based food or drink.
- Vitamins B6 and B12 can help. You need to take the supplements from the start of pregnancy for them to be effective.
- Try acupressure wristbands - sold as a travel-sickness remedy.
- Fresh air makes you feel better, so sleep with the windows open.
- Your doctor may prescribe antihistamines Don't try any old ones you have at home, as there are some that should be avoided in pregnancy
