Morning Sickness : Causes and Cures

Morning sickness is often the first sign of pregnancy, as it can start as early as 2 weeks after conception. Despite the name, the sufferer can feel ill at any time of the day, although as an empty stomach is thought to be one of the triggers then mornings are a common time for it to appear.

Not every pregnant woman will experience morning sickness, although most do to some degree, and it can vary from a feeling of mild nausea or queasiness ranging up to feeling truly dreadful and unable to keep any food or liquids down. The severity of the effects seems to be greatest in women with a history of migraine or travel sickness.

It's not known exactly what causes it, but most doctors agree that the changes in hormone levels that pregnancy triggers are the most major factor. One of the effects of these hormones is to change the way your digestive system works, which can lead to higher levels of acid.

Another possible cause is that many women experience a heightened sense of taste and smell while pregnant, which can make nausea feel worse when unpleasant or strong odours are around.

Finally, tiredness and stress play a part, and most pregnant women are tired and stressed a lot of the time!

Morning sickness can occur over the full range of your pregnancy, but most women find that it more or less disappears by around 14 weeks as hormone levels in the body stabilise.

There are dozens and dozens of traditional 'cures' for the feelings of nausea, with every mother having an opinion on the subject! The fact is that every woman's body is different and so no single thing will work for everyone. However, there are some simple things to try which can help most feel better.

As previously mentioned, an empty stomach can be a cause, so snack little and often to keep hunger at bay, and keep a couple of biscuits by your bed for if you wake up during the night.

Sucking on an ice cube can help, as can fizzy drinks. Fresh ginger is reputed to calm the stomach, so making a tea from crushed root ginger or even chewing on a piece can be worth a try.

Remedies for travel sickness can also help, so it might be worth trying the magnetic wristbands you can buy, but you should never take any medication while pregnant without consulting your doctor.

Morning sickness is a natural part of pregnancy and will not harm your baby in any way, but in severe cases you may be unable to keep any food or fluids down and if this continues you could become dehydrated, which is very dangerous for your baby. If your urine starts to become very dark in colour this is a sign that your fluid levels are too low, and you should speak to your midwife or doctor.

Finally, when you're in a bout of morning sickness, don't worry too much about what you're eating - getting enough energy is more important than a balanced diet at that moment, so if chocolate makes you feel better then go for it! You can always stock up on healthier foods when the sickness has abated a little.

Purchasing Safe Personal Health Care Items

When can you consider a personal health care item to be safe? Well, in today’s modern times, people are now realizing the importance of natural products. Did you know that there are natural personal health care products that you can purchase in the market? You see, some products are chemically based while other products make use of natural ingredients. The choice is up to the individual using the product but don’t you think it’s best to purchase safe personal health care items?

Personal health care items which are considered safe are not necessarily free from chemicals. In fact, in order to live, people use chemicals like dihydrogen oxide. Cellular functions of the body also need a chemical called sodium chloride. The former is more commonly known as water and the latter is salt. So you see, some of the things people consider safe is not exactly free of chemicals. This is also true with personal care products. These products are free from toxic and harmful chemicals. All the personal care products are safely manufactured and undergo certain production processes. The manufacture sees to it that the processes don’t make use of toxic and harmful substances or chemicals. For personal care products to be classified as safe, the product items should be minimally processed and the manufacturer did not use synthetic perfumes and dyes.

Personal Health Care Examination for Early Years

In a man’s life, there will come a time when he has to take a trip down check-up lane for his annual medical examination. Although not everyone is taking part, it is quite important to have your doctor see how your health is doing. Personal health care examination can decrease a person’s chances of getting sick or acquiring a disease because of early diagnosis. There would be other reasons why people would be advised or would want to go to the physician:

Personal Health Care Info

The health info of every individual is necessary so that in case medical problems occur in the future, it will be easier to determine the appropriate medication that should be administered. At present, the personal health info can be stored digitally. The records are intact and up to date. These digital records can provide support for the continuity of medical care. Since the records are kept digitally, all the health info is confidential as well.

Quality health care can now be given to every individual all throughout his lifetime because of the digital health records. If you really care about your personal health, you should have a portable device that can facilitate the storage and retrieval of personal health records rapidly and in a secured manner. The device should be user friendly so that problems can be avoided or minimized.
