A great home remedy to end pregnancy sickness is chewing ginger bits in the morning, but cold foods and reflexology are also good help.
Pregnancy sickness affects 80% of pregnant women and lasts on average up to the 12th week and occurs due to the hormonal changes essential for the baby's formation. Some natural strategies to overcome this discomfort are:
1. Eat Ginger
Eating bits of ginger is a good natural strategy to eliminate the typical nausea from pregnancy. For those who do not much like the taste of raw ginger, you can opt for ginger flakes or make a tea with this root and take it when it's cold because warm foods tend to aggravate nausea.
2. Wear sunscreen wristbands
The anti-nausea bracelet has a button that should be positioned a specific point on the wrist, which is a reflex point called Nei-Kuan, which when stimulated can combat the feeling of nausea. To have the expected effect, you should use a bracelet on each wrist. This can be purchased at some pharmacies, drugstores, maternity and infant products stores or the internet.
3. Eat cold food
The pregnant woman can also try eating cold foods such as yogurt, jello, fruit popsicles, salads, sparkling water and avoid eating too much at one time, but always eat every 3 hours, avoiding too much time without eating, but eating always in small portions.
Other strategies that help in this phase are to avoid strong smells, avoid eating very fatty and spicy foods. However, smelling lemon and coffee powder helps to combat nausea quickly.
In some cases, the obstetrician may indicate the taking of specific medications, which should be taken daily to control this symptom, especially when the woman can not feed properly.
