Working during pregnancy: Do's and don'ts

Easing nausea and vomiting

It's called "morning" sickness, but pregnancy queasiness can hit at any time. To ease nausea at work:

  • Avoid nausea triggers. That double latte you craved every morning before pregnancy or the smell of foods reheated in the break room microwave might now make your stomach flip-flop. Steer clear of anything that triggers nausea.
  • Snack often. Crackers and other bland foods can be lifesavers when you feel nauseated. Keep a stash at work for easy snacking. Ginger ale or ginger tea might help, too.
