For my own benefit..

Helpful Do's and Don'ts:

Do:

• Eat small meals often
• Drink fluids 1/2 hour before or after a meal, but not with meals
• Drink small amounts of fluids during the day to avoid dehydration
• Eat soda crackers 15 minutes before getting up in the morning
• Eat whatever you feel like eating, whenever you feel you can
• Ask someone else to cook for you and open the windows or turn on fans if the odor bothers you
• Get plenty of rest and nap during the day
• Avoid warm places (feeling hot adds to nausea)
• Sniff lemons or ginger, drink lemonade, or eat watermelon to relieve nausea
• Eat salty potato chips (they have been found to settle stomachs enough to eat a meal)
• Exercise

Don'ts:

• Do not lie down after eating
• Do not skip meals
• Do not cook or eat spicy food
