Yeah - something with actual, factual Ginger in it (Schwepps used to have it even they don't now). You might have to hit an artsy super market to find any (Whole Foods, Trader Joes, etc). One of my favorites is R.W. Knudsen: http://www.knudsenjuices.com/products/detail.aspx?groupID=12&categoryID=58&f lavorID=191&productID=261 Very lightly carbonated and delicious. Their Tangerine Spritzers are amazingly good as well. Been hard to find in Scranton (very easy in Boston) but when we do find them we stock up. > > or ginger chews certainly helped my nausea during pregnancy. > > also sometimes buffering stomach with milk can help? These work well for me as well... They taste like ass but raw Ginger IS very good at dealing with minor nausea. ;^) Just remember to research any home remedies that you might consider: most are harmless (and effectless) but many (especially herbal remedies) are drugs: they have physiological effects that might create more trouble depending on what medication you're on. Too many people think that anything "natural" is somehow automatically harmless or "separate" from marketed or synthetic pharmaceuticals... it's not.
