Motion Sickness During Pregnancy: Safe Drug-Free Relief
Pregnancy hormones independently increase motion sickness susceptibility. The same hormonal changes that cause morning sickness amplify vestibular sensitivity. Many women who've never had motion sickness develop it during pregnancy — and existing motion sickness typically worsens. This effect is most pronounced in the first trimester and often resolves after week 16.
Safe Options
- Sound therapy apps (drug-free, any trimester)
- Acupressure wristbands
- Ginger (small amounts, talk to doctor)
- Fresh air, horizon focus

What to Avoid
- Scopolamine patch (Category C — not recommended in pregnancy)

Why This Matters for Pregnant women
