Patient's question:
Vomiting is still very severe. It was a bit better a few days ago, but it has become severe again in the past two days. After vomiting, I feel pain from my throat to my stomach, as if someone had brushed my esophagus with an iron brush. Is this considered severe vomiting? How should I solve this problem?Medical history and effectiveness: I previously had one baby, who is now 2 years old. This is my second pregnancy. When I was pregnant with my first child, I also felt this discomfort, but I still managed to endure it. For this second pregnancy, I hope the doctor can provide a solution.
Help needed: Solve the problem of severe vomiting.
Doctor's answer:
Hello, nausea and vomiting around the 6th week of pregnancy, fatigue, sleepiness, a preference for sour foods, and poor appetite are normal early pregnancy symptoms. It is recommended to relax, get adequate rest, eat small meals frequently, follow a light diet, avoid greasy and stimulating foods, and consider hospitalization with intravenous fluid therapy if necessary. Lemon juice, potatoes, and crackers can help alleviate morning sickness. It is beneficial to consume easily digestible foods such as rice porridge, millet porridge, and bread. Adhere to the principle of eating small meals frequently and chewing food thoroughly. Focus on consuming foods rich in protein and carbohydrates while avoiding refined sugar and highly stimulating foods. Snacks are appropriate, especially nuts like hazelnuts, walnuts, and pistachios. Consuming more fruits rich in vitamins and fiber is also beneficial. Avoid alcoholic beverages. You may consume some soft drinks with better flavors, such as orange juice or hawthorn juice.
