7. Nausea, Vomiting, and Food Cravings and Aversions
Nausea, with or without vomiting, is a common symptom of early pregnancy. Often called morning sickness, nausea may develop at any time, day or night. This is due to hormones slowing the emptying of the stomach.
While nausea may abate after the first trimester, some women may experience food cravings or aversions to food that persist throughout their pregnancies.2‘Early Pregnancy: Signs & Verification Services.’ UPMC, www.upmc.com/services/south-central-pa/women/services/pregnancy-childbirth/getting-pregnant/early-pregnancy. Triggered by hormone changes, sensitivity to odors may increase and the sense of taste may be affected, causing food preferences to change.1‘Symptoms of Pregnancy: What Happens First.’ Mayo Clinic, Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research, 11 May 2019, www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/getting-pregnant/in-depth/symptoms-of-pregnancy/art-20043853.
