Especially in the first three months of pregnancy, there may be morning sickness, although it is a normal physiological reaction, the degree of discomfort is also unbearable for many people. In daily life, there are also many people who cannot distinguish between morning sickness and gastritis vomiting. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the difference between morning sickness and gastritis vomiting:
Generally speaking, pregnancy reactions often occur in the first two months of pregnancy, which is different from the common manifestations of gastritis. Pregnancy vomiting is generally conditional vomiting, such as eating strongly reactive foods, smelling uncomfortable odors, etc.
Gastritis and vomiting are often accompanied by abdominal pain, heartburn, acid reflux, and other irritating and spicy foods. It is difficult to completely distinguish clinically because chronic superficial gastritis is very common in most people, and vomiting worsens during pregnancy. Therefore, dietary care should be strengthened to avoid vomiting.
After understanding the differences, the next step is to learn how to relieve morning sickness:
1. Dietary therapy to alleviate morning sickness
Supplementing during pregnancy is a common knowledge, but there is still a bit of misunderstanding. For example, in the early stages of pregnancy, the growth of the fetus has not yet entered a high-speed stage and does not require excessive nutrition. During this period, pregnant mothers only need to choose food that suits their appetite, and eat small meals frequently to replenish water. The advantage of doing so is that it can ensure the nutrition of the fetus and oneself while reducing morning sickness. Targeted nutritional supplements should be provided after early pregnancy. At this point, without the impact of morning sickness, nutritional supplementation can still be done with half the effort.
2. Drug therapy alleviates morning sickness
Some expectant mothers vomit heavily during pregnancy. To ensure the health of both mother and baby, pregnant women should supplement their nutrition. For example, taking some B vitamins and vitamin C can alleviate morning sickness. It is worth noting that medication should not be used indiscriminately during pregnancy. If medication is needed, it must be taken under the guidance of a doctor.
