Morning Sickness & Nausea Relief in Early Pregnancy
For mamas in Morgantown, Clarksburg, Fairmont, and beyond — a gentle guide to easing morning sickness and nausea naturally.
You’re Not Alone
Up to 80% of people experience nausea — often called morning sickness — in the first trimester. It can impact your appetite, mood, and daily rhythms. Whether you’re navigating constant queasiness or random waves of nausea, this guide offers supportive strategies rooted in both science and lived experience.
Soothing Strategies
- Small, Frequent Meals: Keep blood sugar steady and avoid long stretches without food.
- Ginger: Backed by research to reduce nausea — try teas, chews, or capsules.
- Cold Foods: Often better tolerated than hot meals; think smoothies, fruit, or yogurt.
- Vitamin B6: Some providers recommend it to ease symptoms.
- Acupressure Bands: Like SeaBands — shown to reduce nausea intensity for some people.
When to Seek Support
- If you can’t keep fluids down for 24+ hours
- If you're losing weight quickly
- If nausea disrupts your sleep or daily functioning
- If you’re feeling isolated, overwhelmed, or anxious about your symptoms
