Patient's question:
Medical Description: Currently experiencing a 45-day pregnancy with a regular menstrual cycle of 28 days. Around the 28th day, I felt extremely hungry every day and would often look for food in the middle of the night. By the 35th day, I started experiencing morning sickness, which became increasingly severe. In the past few days, I felt very hungry but could not keep any food down. Even when I managed to swallow something, it would come back up before I could finish it. Eventually, I could no longer eat and began vomiting bile, only able to drink water and not take in any food. However, suddenly from yesterday to today, it has become strange again. I have stopped vomiting as much, though I still feel a bit nauseous. But I am always hungry—just after eating, my stomach feels extremely empty. Is there a problem? Can this prove the baby is still developing?Past Treatment and Effects: Some people say the uterus has a magical memory function. This year, I have...
Doctor's answer:
Hello, this is a normal pregnancy symptom, experienced by all pregnant women, though the severity varies. Regarding claims about the uterus having a magical memory function or telepathy, science cannot prove their existence, but it also cannot disprove them. These are generally taken with a grain of salt. You should adjust your mindset and avoid excessive stress. It may be uncomfortable at first, but it will gradually improve with time.During this period, avoid fasting. Have a few crackers or slices of bread upon waking in the morning. Get up slowly to prevent sudden movements. Eat 5-6 small meals a day, avoiding hunger. Do not consume liquids between meals. Maintain a light diet, avoiding fried foods, indigestible foods, and those with unpleasant odors.
Nausea and vomiting usually subside around the 12th week of pregnancy, so take good care of yourself. You can have an ultrasound examination between the 12th and 14th weeks to check if the fetus is viable and whether there are any abnormalities.
