http://pilatesnutritionist.com/nausea-pregnancy/

Nausea during pregnancy, often termed “morning sickness,” is no joke.

Some women seem to bypass this queasy phase, while others get hit HARD. Those that avoid it entirely are the exception, however, since researchers report that 70-80% of women will experience nausea at some point in their pregnancy. 

For most women, nausea hits in the first trimester and then gradually improves. Roughly ⅔ of women will notice their nausea improves significantly by 13 weeks. 

1. Eat small, frequent meals or snacks.
2. Balance your blood sugar—aim to include some protein and fat when you eat, even if the portion is small).
3. Try salty, sour, or cold foods.
4. Keep a snack at your bedside and move slowly first thing in the morning.
5. Consider eating more (and/or supplementing with) ginger, vitamin B6, and magnesium.
