Understanding Morning Sickness: Causes and Remedies

Morning sickness, or more accurately, nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, is a common and normal part of the journey for many moms-to-be. Despite its name, it doesn’t just strike in the morning—it can happen anytime, day or night. This queasy experience usually starts around week 6 of pregnancy and often eases by weeks 12–16.

While it can be frustrating, there are ways to manage it—like snacking frequently, sipping ginger tea, and staying hydrated.
