Essential for those struggling with morning sickness.

Miriam Erick's "No More Morning Sickness" provides the information that any woman struggling with this potentially debilitating and frustrating symptom of pregnancy needs to read. Miriam Erick assures her readers that it "is not all in your head." She describes the history and treatments of morning sickness, and most important of all, she makes you feel like you have an ally in your struggle with this potentially horrid "illness." I have experienced the good ol' morning, noon and night sickness with all 3 of my pregnancies, and I found the information in this book comforting and helpful, though, I would steer clear of the recipes and head instead to the frozen food section of the local supermart. She does provide tremendous food lists and ideas for those who are frustrated to no end with their sickness. I think every Obstetrician should know about this book and recommend it frequently to those patients they know to be struggling.

thorough excellent source

This book provides a thorough review of the history of nausea and vomiting in pregnancy, possible causes, possible reliefs or remedies, and nutrition information. It also has touching stories about women who went through what you are probably going through now. She does not believe that n/v has a psychological component.

A real life saver!

Just when you think you are totally alone in the battle against morning sickness, a book like this comes along and saves your life... and your sanity. Miriam Erick - thank you from the bottom of my heart (and my husband's as well)
