It’s no fun. Got a call from my 21-year old daughter this morning. She’s in the early stages of pregnancy (her first child, my 10th grandchild), and suffering from morning sickness. Wanted some comfort and advice. I seriously sympathize.

I was the world’s sickest pregnant lady. Morning, noon, evening, middle of the night… I literally weighed less than 90 pounds with both of my pregnancies before I ever began to put on real baby-poundage (about the end of the 6th month). And I was a little queasy and occasionally vomiting throughout.

Research has found positive aspects of morning sickness, and there is plenty of information available about the causes and remedies for morning sickness. I sent all these links to my daughter, and I’d recommend them to readers who are experiencing the unpleasantness of early pregnancy.
