For decades, morning sickness was a bit of a medical mystery.
Researchers had lots of theories.
Maybe it was HCG.
Maybe it was your heightened sense of smell.
Maybe it was your body trying to protect your baby by making certain foods unappealing.
Some of those ideas contained pieces of the truth.
But none of them fully explained why one woman could barely function while another, at the exact same stage of pregnancy, felt almost completely fine.
Then, just a few years ago, researchers uncovered a key piece of the puzzle.
That discovery completely changed how I understand morning sickness—and ultimately changed how I support the women I work with.
It's one of the reasons I'm so excited to be writing Bye-Bye Morning Sickness. For the first time, we're able to connect the latest research with practical strategies that actually make sense.
💛 I'm curious... before finding my page, what did you think caused morning sickness? Hormones? Blood sugar? Something else?
I'd love to hear what you were told (or what you believed!) in the comments.
