7. Get enough rest. Fatigue can actually make your nausea worse. Try to get a little extra sleep each day.

8. Keep a food diary. Track the foods that make you queasy and those that seem to agree with you. You can check your notes and plan menus accordingly.

More Morning Sickness Relief Tips

9. Don't run for the antacid. You may be immediately tempted to reach for an antacid, but don't do it without consulting your doctor. Some antacids can cause fluid to build up in your system. Ask your doctor if she recommends you take over-the-counter antacids, or if she has another treatment to offer you.

10. Try mint. Peppermint refreshes and has a soothing effect on the stomach. Try chewing peppermint gum or drinking peppermint tea.

11. Sniff lemon or lime. Citrus scents can also help you cope with nausea.

12. Experiment with acupressure. Some people who suffer from motion sickness wear acupressure or motion sickness bands to combat nausea. Some pregnant women who've tried them have had some success. These bracelets exert a steady pressure on the inside of the wrist that seems to relieve feelings of nausea. Research done on one brand of motion sickness bands called Sea-Bands indicates that as many as 70 percent of women experience some degree of nausea relief.

13. Try to reduce your stress levels. Stress can trigger or exacerbate nausea. If you're stressed, take deep breaths and try to relax. Talk to a friend or take a walk. Take some time to plan your schedule and say no to things you can't realistically fit in. Remember to keep things in perspective. Don't sweat the small stuff. If you do have serious stressors in your life, seek professional help. Don't try to keep it all inside or deal with it alone.

14. Call your doctor, if needed. If morning sickness becomes so bad that you can't eat or take in fluids at all, contact your physician. If necessary, your doctor can prescribe Zofran or Reglan as a last resort to help control severe nausea.
