- Try to eat whenever you feel queasy; it doesn’t have to be a lot–just a couple grapes, a cracker or slice of cheese
- Stay hydrated. Sip on beverages all day long. But sometimes even drinking plain water can make a pregnant woman gag. Add some freshly squeezed lemon. (real lemon works too)
- Drink some mint tea first thing in the morning and whenever you need it
- Eat ginger snaps or other food with ginger in it
- Wear sea wrist bands available at most drug stores; they’re also called travel bands or acupressure bands
- Always have food on hand–keep a baggie of oyster crackers, cheese sticks, or a protein bar in your purse
- Toothpaste making you gag? brush your teeth with mouthwash instead
- Take papaya digestive enzymes (or eat the real fruit either dried or fresh)
- Don’t lie down until your food has a chance to digest
