What Helped with Nausea During my Pregnancy
Jasmine Flournoy – August 2 2024 – Empowering Tips for New Moms
Lemon Water
One thing I had a hard time doing during my pregnancy was drinking water. I tried to stay away from sodas and anything that contained any dye in it so certain juices and sodas of course. When I wanted to drink just water it would make me feel really nauseous. I read in a book that adding lemon juice from an actual lemon helped with that and it definitely did.
Juce from Terra Kai Organics
This a super fruit and veggie supplement powder blend. This powder blend is packed with prebiotic fiber. Mixing the powder with water is all you have to do, super easy. I would make this mixture each day I went into the office which was twice a week mainly, because I wanted to avoid being sickly at work and this definitely helped me with that.
Drinks I Purchased at Restaurants and Grocery Stores While Pregnant
Chick-fil-A
Now I have heard that one should avoid certain teas such as black tea due to the caffeine, but my mid-wife assured me that drinking caffeine while pregnant was okay as long as you don’t drink 50 cups of it in one. In other words drink caffeine in moderation in a day.
Lemonade (made with real lemon juice, water and cane sugar. No dyes.)
Teas (Seasonal teas are also available different times of the year)
Sunjoy (half tea half lemonade)
Bottle of water
Wendys
