It’s not just a little queasiness – morning sickness can affect your entire day, leaving you feeling exhausted and unable to enjoy the simple joys of pregnancy.
Fatigue, nausea, and sensitivity to smells are common during the first trimester. These symptoms, caused by hormonal changes such as increased hCG, slower digestion, and emotional stress, can often last throughout the first trimester and, for some, even beyond.
While medication may temporarily suppress nausea, it doesn’t address the root cause.
