In most cases, morning sickness during pregnancy tends to disappear on its own at about 13 weeks of pregnancy. Morning sickness during pregnancy can be overcome by eating several small meals during the day rather than 2 or 3 large meals. One can also try eating some ginger or ginger ale which is a natural remedy for alleviating nausea.

In most cases an empty stomach aggravates the feeling of nausea and hence pregnant women should have some soda or water and some crackers just before rising from the bed in the morning. Morning sickness during pregnancy can be overcome by avoiding foods that are too spicy or fatty and instead consume foods that are high in carbohydrates and proteins. Women should ensure that they drink plenty of fresh drinking water to ensure that they don't get dehydrated. Women suffering from nausea and morning sickness should take their prenatal vitamins and also get plenty of rest, avoid strong smells or odors and they should also avoid lying down immediately after a meal.

In some cases morning sickness during pregnancy can become serious if women experience both a loss of appetite and they also experience severe vomiting. This may be hazardous for the baby and the mother and may result in malnourishment and dehydration. Another natural remedy for overcoming morning sickness during pregnancy is to try and make a cup of tea without caffeine or with some peppermint or ginger in it as it is known to calm the stomach and provide temporary relief from morning sickness. Women suffering from morning sickness during pregnancy should follow a balanced diet and also increase the intake of carbohydrates in the form of potatoes and white rice. Pregnant women should also chew their food properly to avoid indigestion and should not eat till they are overfull as this may increase the sensation to vomit.
