Pregnancy: Dealing With Morning Sickness

Overview

Morning sickness is nausea, sometimes with vomiting, during pregnancy. It occurs most often during the first several months of pregnancy. It usually gets better in the second trimester.

It's likely that your hormones are causing your morning sickness. But you can do things to feel better. You can change what and how you eat, avoid certain foods and smells, and ask your doctor about medicines you can try.
