Product Details


Product Description

From Library Journal

Written by a registered dietician, this detailed guide to morning sickness focuses on controlling symptoms through diet. The role of nutrition and food choices in reducing illness is explored, and sample recipes, menus, and a "survival kit" are provided. Using case studies, the text also examines mothers' feelings and partners' reactions to the symptoms of morning sickness. Often dismissed as a trivial or transient complaint, morning sickness becomes severe enough in one in 72 pregnant women to require hospitalization. An occasionally awkward writing style does not diminish the importance of this handbook in synthesizing current knowledge about this disorder and providing practical advice to reduce or eliminate its impact. For all popular medicine and consumer health collections.

1.0 out of 5 stars not helpful, Nov 10 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: No More Morning Sickness (Paperback)
I'm puking my guts out and all she has to say is avoid smells and try different foods. The only thing that has done for me is now I puke up different foods. First of all, the title makes you think that you can get rid of your morning sickness, which is totally false. I didn't find anything in the book that helped me. Also, it left some of my key questions unanswered such as: Are there things other than diet that can help? At what point should I call my doctor? How long is this living hell going to last? And lastly, a few additional words of comfort would have been appreciated, rather than the chapter on all the women who spent 9 months hospitalized for this, and this is written as a success story because they were able to cope with it. Come on...

This review is from: No More Morning Sickness (Paperback)
With the Internet, there are now a number of new resources for woman experiencing morning sickness. In particular, there are more resources for those with hyperemesis gravidas (extreme vomiting) , and new theories for why it occurs (the bacteria h.pylori, linked to ulcers).
