    Ease morning sickness

    When you're pregnant, it's important to eat healthy, regular meals to provide plenty of nutrients for your developing baby. But morning sickness can make that a tough task.
    Here are some suggestions when you're dealing with morning sickness, courtesy of the University of Michigan Health System:
    Get enough rest.
    First thing in the morning, eat a few pretzels, crackers or some dry cereal.
    Eat small meals frequently throughout the day.
    Stay away from greasy, fried or spicy foods.
    Drink plenty of fluids throughout the day. Try to drink them between meals instead of just with them.
    If you don't feel like you can eat anything and can't drink water, try some ice chips, fruit juice or fruit juice popsicles.
    Steer clear of offensive odors.
