Welcome to Gyno Info, this week we’re talking about something many pregnant women experience—but don’t always feel prepared for: morning sickness.
I explain what morning sickness (also called nausea and vomiting of pregnancy, or NVP) really is, why it happens, and what you can do to feel better. I also share some personal insight from my own experiences caring for patients, along with practical, realistic tips you can try right away.
We also discuss hyperemesis gravidarum, a more severe form of morning sickness. I explain how it’s different, when it becomes a medical concern, and what treatment options are available if symptoms become overwhelming.
Most importantly, I want you to know when it’s time to reach out for help and why regular prenatal care is essential for both your health and your baby’s.
In this episode, I cover:
- What’s normal when it comes to morning sickness
- Common causes and why symptoms can vary so much
- Simple strategies to help manage nausea and vomiting
- Signs of severe morning sickness that shouldn’t be ignored
- When to call your healthcare provider
You’re not alone, and you don’t have to suffer in silence. My goal is to help you feel supported, informed, and confident throughout your pregnancy.
