Cures For Morning Sickness - 5 Ways To Get Your Morning Sickness Under Control

Morning sickness usually begins around the 4th week of pregnancy and typically begins to subside around week 14.

Morning sickness varies greatly from person to person. Some women have severe cases that prevent them from carrying out their normal daily routines, while others may experience just slight nausea.

Most women experience morning sickness more intently in the morning hours but it can last all throughout the day.

Morning sickness can be very inconvenient and can cause you to have trouble carrying out normal routine tasks. But there is help. Following are 5 cures for morning sickness that have been helpful to many pregnant women.

Get Out Of Bed Slowly - Set your alarm clock 5 to 10 minutes earlier than you normally would and upon waking in the morning take your time getting out of bed instead of jumping up as soon as the alarm goes off.

Also, you may want to keep crackers by the bed and eat 2 or 3 before getting up. This has been known to help combat the feeling of nausea that you experience first thing in the morning. For some reason nausea seems to intensify on an empty stomach.

Eat Small Meals More Frequently - Try eating smaller meals more frequently. Every two hours is recommended. This will keep your stomach from becoming empty and causing stomach acids to build up.

Try not to allow your stomach to become completely empty. As this tends to cause nausea. What you can do, is eat something every couple of hours to keep yourself from getting too hungry or too full at any given time.

Drink Plenty Of Fluids To Keep Your Body Hydrated - Try to keep your body hydrated by drinking a lot of water. If you are not able to drink water because it makes you nauseous try sucking on ice chips.

You can also drink carbonated caffeine free drinks such as 7 up, ginger ale and sprite. But water is still the best option.

Fresh Air - Spending 5 to 10 minutes outside exercising in the fresh air will make you feel ten times better. I know it may be hard to imagine trying to do any type of exercise when you are feeling miserable but you will feel much better afterwards.

Ginger Tea - Ginger has been used by mid wives and doctors for years to treat morning sickness. Even though the FDA has not approved or does not officially endorse ginger they admit that it is a good home treatment.

You can consume ginger tea, capsules or in powdered form to help with nausea. Just be sure to use it in minimal amounts.

Remember that morning sickness does not last forever. But during the time that you experience it can be very debilitating. The remedies listed are just 5 cures for morning sickness of the many available. The key is to find the one thing or combination of things that work for you and stick with it until your morning sickness is under control.

How well does the morning after pill work if you take it 37 hours after intercourse?

Myself and my partner had unprotected sex the night before last I was ovulating at the rime I have just been able to take the morning after pill 37hours after does anyone know if it will still work and if not and I'm pregnant will it harm the baby?

The morning after pill is most effective when taken within 24 hours (like 95% effective). However, if you take it within 25-48 hours after unprotected sex, it's about 85% effective. After about 48-72 hours, it's way less effective, about 50% or something. (Not exactly sure).

If you are already pregnant, it wont do anything. It's just a way higher dose of hormones that your body already produces during the beginning of pregnancy anyway, so it wont do anything to the baby. They just say that you're not supposed to take it if you already know you're pregnant because there would be no point, really.

Best of luck to you!
