First Trimester Nausea
Bhawna, age from Omaha, NE asks...
I am pregnant and this is my initial three month period. My problem is that I don't feel like having anything like food or milk. I feel that as if I will vomit it out. Is it normal?
Stacy Says...
COMEPLETELY normal. Unfortunately. The first trimester, with all the hormones, reak havoc on every part of your body. Try to find something you like, and stick with it. Herbal teas worked for me, at least for awhile, then they made me nauseous. Crackers, toast...for a while I wanted nothing but milkshakes and pancakes--and that's what I would have for dinner. You need to eat something so try to nibble throughout the day (big meals aren't the best way to go) and stick with bland foods. And remember, this will get better!
