Morning Sickness has to be one of the greatest misnomers on the planet. First off, just calling it sickness falls woefully short of how you are feeling right now. Morning Wretchedness perhaps? Or Morning Ask-Me-One-More-Time-How-I'm-Feeling-I'll-Vomit-In-Your-Shoes Syndrome?

It doesn't just happen in the morning either. For some of us it is all day, or at night, or when we smell a hamburger, or see our mother-in-law. You never know when the nausea will hit.

Two bits of good news. First, it will pass. Cold comfort right now, perhaps, but the yucky feeling will generally wane after week 13. The other bit of good news is that many studies have shown that, believe it or not, women who vomit during their pregnancy are at much lower risk of miscarriage and premature delivery. (So, just know that your current suffering is only the first of a long line of times you will suffer on behalf of your child.)

Pregnancy has a lot of worries and concerns that go along with it and morning sickness is a part of that. Is my baby getting nutrition when I keep throwing up so much? Generally, you do not need to worry. Your baby will get the nutrition he/she needs to grow. However, do call your doctor if you are losing weight, feel dehydrated or find that you are not urinating. Daily vomiting is not generally a concern, but if you find that you can't keep anything down (including liquids) for five hours or so, call your doctor.

You have probably heard of all of the things you can do to make it through the next several weeks. Crackers by the bed stand, ginger ale, that sort of thing. It is about how to end completely the nausea, vomiting, and other early pregnancy symptoms without changing what you eat or taking some scary supplement you have never heard of.

One last word on morning sickness. For as horrible as you may feel, remember you will never be this close to your child again. The rest of their life will be a process of growing up and away from you so try to enjoy this relatively brief time of co-existence. You have probably heard of all of the things you can do to endure the next several weeks. Crackers by the bed stand, ginger ale, that sort of thing. You can overcome morning sickness quicker than you think so you can concentrate on your upcoming blessed event.
