Is There Such Thing As Morning Sickness Relief?

By Julie Ingham

It is unknown as to why morning sickness relief happens to begin with. But there are several ideas why. There are rapidly changing chemicals in your body such as estrogen and progesterone that enhance smells and belly acid. Then there is stress and fatigue that will surely come with just being pregnant that is more than capable of keeping you sick.

The progesterone works by relaxing your bodies muscles. It also affects the uterine muscles and that helps with preterm labor. So there is the chance that the stomach which is a muscle also could be adversely affected.

Another widely accepted idea is a buildup of hCG that is human chorionic gonadtopin. This build up happens until about the twelfth week of pregnancy and at this point this hormone begins to decrease.

But studies show that women who this type of sickness have fewer problems. Regardless of which one or even if neither is right there are a few things that seem to help with it. And you dont have to know why an airplane flies to know it will fly. So if the ideas help it really dont matter why.

There is another natural remedy to try Acupuncture. Studies had shown that pregnant women with hyperemesis, that's a fancy word for sever morning sickness, have seen benefits from acupuncture and or a anti nausea drug called metoclopramid. Yah I know that isn't a natural remedie. But that is for the worst case. But women who had both treatments were seen to reduce nausea and vomiting.

You can keep smells around you that will over power the offensive smells like lemons. Stay away from spicy foods, now if you have cravings its probably for a reason so give into them. Your body seems to know if it is lacking in anything. And you can stay away from liquids when you are trying to eat, less of a chance of getting overloads of acid on your belly. - 30525
