Morning Sickness

Morning sickness is characterised by excessive salivation and vomitting, brought on by the sight, smell and taste of food. It usually starts at four to eight weeks into the pregnancy and continues for up to sixteen weeks.

 

Morning sickness indireclty aids in preventing toxins from reaching the developing baby.

 

Ginger aromatic water can be used to relieve nausea in the first trimester

 

Constipation in Pregnancy

Hormonal changes affect bowel movements. During pregnancy, the body produces more progesterone, which relaxes the muscles to allow the baby to grow. However, the wall of the intestine is made of muscle, too. As the progesterone makes it relax, it can become less efficient at moving along food and waste.

 

Flax seed oil can support the lubrication of stools.
