Ginger and acupuncture can help reduce nausea during pregnancy.

Whether raw, in tea or in capsules, ginger noticeably lessens nausea, according to the Professional Association of Gyneacologists(BVF) in Munich.

The study showed that taking Vitamin B6 and stimulating certain acupuncture points by applying light pressure to body parts also helps. Special bands worn on the wrist can stimulate those points.

Changes in diet can also help, says the BVF. Women suffering from nausea should eat more meals, but smaller portions or eat something before they get up in the morning.

Three of every four women suffer from nausea or vomiting during the first trimester of pregnancy. It is most likely caused when hormones boost metabolic or pancreatic activity. Pancreatic function tests area recommended for especially bad problems.
