If you’re reading this, chances are you’re nauseated, exhausted, and maybe wondering if you’re ever going to feel human again.
Let me say this right up front: you are not broken. Dealing with first-trimester symptoms can feel like an endless uphill battle, but your morning sickness is not just bad luck or your body betraying you.
In fact, I’m going to share 7 clear signs that your morning sickness is fixable and that your body is actually trying to help you, even though it certainly doesn’t feel like it right now.
Why the “Standard” Advice Often Fails
When pregnancy nausea strikes, most women are told to “eat crackers,” “drink ginger tea,” or “just take meds.” Maybe you’ve tried all the standard natural remedies for pregnancy nausea, and you are still suffering.
You might start to believe that there’s nothing you can do. But what if your nausea was actually a message, not a mystery?
Pregnancy Hormones Explained
Morning sickness isn’t random. It’s your body struggling to tolerate a rapid rise in levels. To have these pregnancy hormones explained simply: you’ve likely heard about the spike in hCG, but there is another recently discovered hormone called GDF15, and it skyrockets!
It can jump from 400 to 73,000 nanograms during pregnancy, a 180-fold increase. That surge stimulates a specific part of the brain stem that communicates with the vomiting center.
The lead researcher on this from the University of Cambridge explains: “The baby growing in the womb is producing a hormone (GDF15) at levels the mother is not used to. The more sensitive she is to this hormone, the sicker she will become.”
Underneath that intolerance, there are often energetic imbalances. Through holistic pregnancy wellness, we look at the system as a whole. When your body becomes more hormonally tolerant, the nausea eases, sometimes dramatically.
7 Signs Your Morning Sickness is Fixable
1. Your nausea fluctuates
If it’s worse at certain times of day or after certain foods, that’s good news! It means your body can regulate; it’s just struggling to hold that balance consistently. If it can change at all, we can help it change in the right direction.
2. Certain foods or smells trigger you
If the smell of coffee makes you gag but you can handle pickles, your body just gave us a clue. These aren’t random; they point to specific nutrient and energy mismatches that can be corrected with proper natural pregnancy support.
3. You feel worse when you’re tired, stressed, or anxious
This means your nervous system is playing a role. By adopting calm pregnancy practices, you can lower stress levels, which often helps increase your hormone tolerance.
4. You feel a difference when you eat, rest, or hydrate
If your body responds even a little bit to an adjustment, like adding electrolytes, it means your body is responsive! You just need to learn to “speak the same language” as your body. This is where tailored prenatal nutrition and smoothies can become a game-changer for morning sickness relief.
5. You had a different experience in another pregnancy
Whether you had more or less nausea before, it’s proof this isn’t fate. Something has shifted in your hormonal environment, which means it can shift again with the right support.
6. You get short windows of relief
Even if it’s just five minutes while you’re sleeping, that is proof that your body can reset. Through mind-body pregnancy healing, we work to stretch those nausea-free moments into nausea-free hours.
7. Your intuition says, “There has to be another way”
If a little voice inside says this shouldn’t be your only reality, listen to it. That intuition is the part of you that remembers what balance feels like.
If you recognized even one of these signs, then your morning sickness is absolutely fixable. You don’t have to “just tough it out.”
I created a free training, Mellow Morning for Pregnancy, where I’ll show you how to uncover your core hormonal intolerance and restore your body’s energetic balance. I want you to feel like yourself again, able to enjoy food and the excitement of your pregnancy.
Your body isn’t broken; it’s just asking for the right kind of support. Once it gets that, the shift can be incredible. 💛
