Nausea in Early Pregnancy (2753)

During the first three months of pregnancy a woman may experience nausea and vomiting. To ease the effects of nausea:

- Keep meals small.

- Eat four or five small meals a day, instead of two or three big ones.

- Drink fluids between meals, but not with meals.

- Stay away from greasy, fried, or spicy foods or any food that upsets your stomach.

- Eat dry toast, crackers, pretzels, or dry cereal before you get out of bed in the morning.

- Keep crackers or pretzels with you to eat when your stomach feels upset.

- When you cook, open windows or use a fan to get rid of food odors.
