How to relieve severe morning sickness

When many women find out they are pregnant, they don't have time to share the joy with their families before they are troubled by early pregnancy symptoms, which even makes the pregnant mother irritable. So how to relieve early pregnancy reactions? I have sorted out some tips that pregnant mothers can try.

In fact, this is closely related to the increase in the secretion of chorionic gonadotropin during pregnancy. It not only affects the normal gastrointestinal absorption function of pregnant women, but also causes pregnancy reactions such as dizziness, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and physical fatigue in pregnant women. It is a normal physiological phenomenon.

1. Maintain a happy mood. Pregnant mothers who have early pregnancy reactions must not feel depressed or upset, because this will aggravate the early pregnancy reactions. Under the condition that the body permits, they can participate in some activities, or recall some happy things, and listen to some of their favorite songs. Through these, they can improve their mood, relieve their emotions, and keep themselves in a happy mood as much as possible.

2. Eat a healthy diet, eat small and frequent meals, and avoid eating high-fat, greasy, spicy, and fried foods, as these foods will irritate your already sensitive digestive tract.

Try to focus on light and easy-to-digest food. You can prepare some sour things in advance, such as oranges, dried green plums, etc.

Because morning sickness is more severe when the stomach is empty, pregnant mothers are advised to eat small and frequent meals. In addition, don't force yourself to eat foods you don't like, and try to choose healthy foods that you like.

3. Rest when you need to rest. Early pregnancy symptoms will make pregnant mothers easily tired. When you are mentally tired, don’t try to get rid of sleepiness, you should rest to meet the needs of the body.

In addition, try to maintain a regular work and rest schedule, don't stay up late, and develop the habit of taking a nap at noon, which will help relieve fatigue.

4. Proper exercise is healthier. Pregnant mothers should insist on doing some simple exercises every day, which can make your body more comfortable and also help sleep. It is recommended that pregnant mothers participate in some brisk activities, such as outdoor walks, doing prenatal exercises, etc.

5. Smell the aromatic smell. You can drop a small amount of lemonade or orange juice on toilet paper. This aromatic smell and strange taste can relieve dizziness, nausea and vomiting. Carry it with you in case of emergency when you smell a pungent smell.

6. Replenish water to avoid dehydration. Pregnant mothers who experience morning sickness will lose about 300 ml of water each time they vomit, so pregnant mothers should drink more water to replenish water at home to avoid dehydration due to morning sickness. If you don’t want to drink plain water, you can consider using milk, freshly squeezed vegetable and fruit juice, soup, etc. instead.

Of course, the effectiveness of this method for everyone varies from person to person, and it may not be effective for everyone. If the early pregnancy reaction is severe, you should see a doctor in time. Don't force yourself to stay at home to avoid affecting the health of yourself and your baby.

Finally, I hope all pregnant mothers can go through early pregnancy reactions healthily and comfortably.
