An estimated 70 percent of women experience nausea during pregnancy, especially during early pregnancy. The term morning sickness is frustratingly inaccurate as many women experience all-day nausea or their worst nausea in the evenings. Nausea can be triggered by a wide variety of factors, including smells, noise, heat, motion, stress, lack of sleep, certain food or for no reason at all! If your pregnancy nausea impacts your quality of life or ability to consume appropriate nutrition (especially hydration), don’t hesitate to speak to your family physician about it. There are several prescription medications available that may help safely combat pregnancy nausea. There are also over-the-counter options such as Gravol available, be sure to check with your doctor before starting one of these! Over my two pregnancies, I tried countless strategies to combat the pregnancy nausea, some more effective than others. These are the tips that I found most helpful and helped to make nausea more survivable!
