What are the methods for pregnant women to relieve nausea?

After pregnancy, women will have various reactions. The lightest reaction is vomiting. Although it is also very uncomfortable, it is not a big deal and will not affect people's health. However, we still have to find a way for pregnant women to relieve vomiting. Only in this way can pregnant women be happy and wait for the arrival of the baby happily. Let us solve this problem below.

Method 1 to relieve morning sickness: Don’t force yourself. Try to avoid foods or smells that might make you feel sick. If you feel like you're nauseated no matter what you eat, don't worry. Eat things that whet your appetite, even if they don't give you a balanced diet. No matter what it is, eating a little is better than eating a large meal and then throwing it all up.

Method 2 to relieve morning sickness: eat cold food. Try eating foods that are cool or at room temperature, as the smell of these foods is not as strong as hot foods.

Method three to relieve morning sickness: small snacks at night. Place some simple snacks such as cookies by your bed. When you wake up, you can eat a few cookies first, then rest for 20 to 30 minutes before getting up. If you wake up in the middle of the night feeling nauseous, you can also eat some cookies to relieve the pain.

Method 4 to relieve morning sickness: Eat small and frequent meals. Or eat some snacks at any time and don't let your stomach be empty for a moment (an empty stomach is the easiest to cause nausea). Also, eat bland foods that are rich in protein, which can help curb nausea. But, all in all, you still have to eat something that can whet your appetite.

Method 5 to relieve morning sickness: Avoid high fat. Avoid eating high-fat foods as they take longer to digest. Avoid greasy, spicy, sour, and fried foods, which can irritate your already fragile digestive system.

Method 6 to relieve morning sickness: Drink water in small sips. Don’t drink too much! Although drinking water is important to prevent dehydration, don't drink so much water that your stomach is full, as this will prevent you from having room for other foods to prevent vomiting. If you vomit frequently, try a sports drink that contains glucose, salt, and potassium to help replace lost electrolytes.

Method 7 to relieve morning sickness: Avoid taking pregnancy vitamins on an empty stomach. Do not take pregnancy vitamins on an empty stomach after getting up in the morning. You can try taking vitamins with food or before going to bed at night. You can also ask your doctor if you can temporarily switch to a pregnancy supplement with less iron, because your fragile digestive system can hardly tolerate the mineral iron.

Method 8 to relieve morning sickness: Try foods containing ginger. Studies show that ginger can make your stomach feel better. Make yourself a cup of ginger tea by chopping up some ginger and brewing it with hot water. Ginger candy is also a good choice!

Method nine to relieve morning sickness: wear an acupoint wristband. You can buy this soft cotton wristband at the drugstore. It was originally designed to prevent seasickness, but pregnant women can also wear it to prevent morning sickness. The wearing method is: tie the wristband tightly around your wrist, and the plastic "buckle" on the wristband will gently press on an acupuncture point on the inside of the wrist, which can inhibit the vomiting center in the brain. You can also consult your doctor and wear an electronic wristband, which looks like a watch and uses a weak electric current to stimulate the corresponding acupuncture points. It is safe, and studies have shown that it is effective for some pregnant women.

Method 10 to relieve morning sickness: Vitamin B6. Although it's not known why vitamin B6 may help relieve morning sickness, you may want to ask your doctor if you can take it. Some expectant mothers find it effective. The recommended dose of vitamin B6 is 1.9 mg per day, but if your vomiting symptoms are severe, your doctor may also have you take a dose of 10 to 25 mg three times a day. Do not take vitamin B6 or any other supplement without consulting your doctor.

There are many ways for pregnant women to relieve vomiting, but not every method is suitable for everyone. Pregnant women should find the real reason for their vomiting according to their own situation, or find the food or things they hate, and then try to stay away from these things that make them vomit. Only in this way can they completely get rid of this trouble.
