All-Natural Remedies For Morning Sickness 

If you're pregnant and can't keep any food down, don't worry, you're not alone. 

More than 50 % of women will experience nausea and/or vomiting during the first trimester of their pregnancy. 

No one knows exactly what causes morning sickness, but we do know that for most it will pass quickly in the the first trimester but for others it can last the whole pregnancy and can often make this wonderful time of being pregnant rather miserable. 

Lucky there are some great all-natural Remedies For Morning Sickness that can help to relieve that constant urge to throw up.

What can help

Changing your diet: Sometimes all it takes is some tweaks to your diet to make nausea go away. 

We know you might be craving them, but try to cut back on fatty and fried foods. Sometimes just the smell of seasoned or spicy foods can trigger nausea, so it's good to have some bland food in the house that you can munch on instead. 

Make sure you're drinking lots of fluids, especially if you are throwing up regularly as vomiting drains the body of fluids.

Ginger: Ginger is a highly recommended all-natural remedy for morning sickness. 

Asian cultures have used it for years to relieve stomach conditions, like nausea. Clinical studies have shown that one gram of ginger a day, which is equivalent to a half a teaspoon taken four times a day, effectively reduces the occurrence of morning sickness in women. 

A word of warning, however: some doctors are reluctant to recommend ginger for morning sickness because large amounts can thin the blood and interfere with blood clotting. So, consult your doctor before you start chugging ginger tea on a regular basis.

Vitamin B6: Doctors often prescribe Vitamin B6 to expectant mothers who are battling morning sickness. 

The vitamin can be found in lots of foods like bananas, nuts, cauliflower, carrots, lean meats and fish. 

However, you probably won't get the amount of Vitamin B6 you need from your diet alone. That's where supplements come in. 

To relieve nausea and vomiting, doctors recommend that pregnant women take 25 mg of Vitamin B6 three times a day. Be careful not to take more than your doctor's recommended dosage.

Too much B6 can cause temporary nerve damage in your limbs.

Citrus: Citrus, especially lemon, has been used for many years by various cultures to relieve nausea and other stomach issues. 

If drinking water is making you feel like throwing up, try adding a slice of lemon to your water pitcher. Many women also find that sniffing a slice of lemon or citrus peels helps to relieve their nausea. 

Try carrying around a zip-lock bag of citrus peels or lemon slices around with you, so that you can take some whiffs of it during the day. Don't worry about people staring at you. Just tell them you're doing it for the baby!

Suffering in silence won't help the nausea and vomiting go away. Start incorporating these all-natural remedies into your life and you'll soon feel that unbearable nauseous feeling begin to subside.
