Understanding

Usual nausea or severe vomiting?

First trimester nausea is linked to hormonal changes. It often starts around week six and usually eases in the second trimester. It is unpleasant but you can still drink and eat.

Hyperemesis gravidarum is different: repeated vomiting throughout the day, being unable to keep fluids down, weight loss and severe tiredness. It can lead to dehydration and mineral imbalances, and needs treatment.

Warning signs

When should you seek care straight away?

Call the center or go to the emergency department if you have:

been unable to keep fluids down for a day
little or very dark urine, a dry mouth or dizziness
weight loss during pregnancy
vomiting with blood, abdominal pain or fever
marked weakness or feeling faint

Treatment

How is severe vomiting treated?

Assessment

Clinical examination, blood and urine tests to measure dehydration.

Ultrasound

An ultrasound scan checks the pregnancy and looks, for example, for twins.

Treatment

Rehydration, sometimes through a drip, and anti-sickness medicines compatible with pregnancy.

Follow-up

Dr Boudra adjusts the treatment and continues your pregnancy follow-up.

Day to day

Tips for coping with nausea

Eat small, frequent meals, sip drinks between meals, avoid smells and foods that trigger nausea, and rest as much as you can.

Do not take any medicine without medical advice, even over the counter. If your pregnancy follows IVF, ICSI or insemination, Dr Najib Boudra follows you as a continuation of your care. Also read when to see a gynecologist.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions about severe vomiting in pregnancy

Is severe vomiting dangerous for the baby?

With proper care, it usually has no effect on the baby. The main risk is for the mother: dehydration and exhaustion. That is why you should seek care quickly.

How long does pregnancy vomiting last?

It usually eases during the second trimester. In some cases it lasts longer, and Dr Boudra then adapts the follow-up and treatment.

Will I need to go to hospital?

A short hospital stay may be needed for rehydration through a drip if you cannot keep fluids down. The doctor decides after examining you.

Can I take medicine for nausea?

Only on prescription. Some treatments are compatible with pregnancy; Dr Boudra chooses the one that suits you.
