Follow these guidelines for minimizing nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.
Keep food in your stomach, but not too much at once. An empty stomach can make nausea worse. Eat several small meals every day instead of three large meals.
For morning nausea, eat a small snack (like crackers) before rising. Allow a few minutes for the snack to digest, then get out of bed slowly.
Stay hydrated. Drink a lot of fluids. Try a sports hydration drink, as well as water, broth, or juice.
Eat more protein, and cut your fatty food intake.
Avoid smells and foods that make you feel nauseated. Citrus juice, milk, coffee, and caffeinated tea commonly make nausea worse.
Avoid iron supplements, which can make nausea worse. These aren't necessary during the first trimester.
Get lots of rest. Stress and fatigue can make morning sickness worse.
Contact your health professional immediately if you vomit more than 3 times a day or are unable to take fluids, especially if you also have pain, fever, or both.
