Healthy food

Hi! Sorry for posting alot of questions. I am unable to drink milk, eat vegetables or even fruits. I will vomit or the sight of it just makes me nausea. Any advise? I am worried about my baby. I am taking folic acid and multivitamins every morning. Will this affect my baby?

Hi Nathira. When you have a bad nausea you can't eat anything that has 'taste or flavour' in it. The only foods you can eat are the plain ones like plain biscuits/crackers, plain porridges, plain bread, peanuts also does help. Try to drink hot Milo or 100 plus (non-gas). This phase is normal in the 1st trimester and will usually subside by the 2nd tri depending on individuals. Try not to go on an empty stomach. That makes you more nauseous. Other alternative is get yourself an anti sea-sick band which you can get at Watson/Guardian. Helps to curb the nausea. Baby is still tiny so it won't be affected. Just make sure to take your folic acid daily.
