GINGER
Drink some ginger ale or have a cup of hot ginger tea before bedtime. Ginger, in moderation, is great for handling nausea.

MOTION SICKNESS BANDS
Sea Bands motion sickness bands are great for handling nausea. They are bands that are worn on the wrist, putting pressure where it is needed most for motion sickness. Since they have no side affects, they will not harm your unborn baby.

DRINK FLUIDS
Drinking plenty of fluids will help your body eliminate nausea as well. Avoid sodas and coffee and focus more on water or juice. Ice water helped me when I was pregnant with my children. Surprisingly milk helps as well. If you do not like the taste of white milk, then try chocolate or strawberry.

GET PLENTY OF REST
Make sure you are getting a sufficient amount of rest at night and try to take a nap during the day, if possible. When wake up, take your time getting out of bed.

BRUSH YOUR TEETH
Brush your teeth often and after every meal. This will get rid of the taste from previous meals which are prone to making your feel ill.
