Morning Sickness or Emesis associated with NVP or Pregnancy?

A new understanding of the pathways used in sickness (Emesis).

 

Morning Sickness
Morning sickness has been around for as long as women have been pregnant. It is estimated that between 50% to 80% of pregnancies bring with them the sickness that can start and end at any time of day or night - sometimes not end at all. For decades the world of medical science has sought an answer to it, but this has been a demanding task as no-one in their right mind would attempt tests on a Mother and Fetus.

Research
Asking a Mother to try a new product is unsavoury for obvious reasons - why should she be the guinea pig? Hence nothing much has really progressed in terms of finding a solution to the problem, that is until now. Now we have a better understanding of which bodily organs are involved in the process of being sick - what the medical profession calls "EMESIS".

 

What have these organs have to do with morning sickness?

At first it may seem strange but these organs have have very definite roles to play in the process of being sick. See the important information below.

Maternal susceptibility to nausea and vomiting of pregnancy:
is the vestibular system involved?

Nausea and vomiting of pregnancy shares many characteristics with motion sickness, a vestibular dependent phenomenon. A number of physiologic changes that occur in normal pregnancy are also known to accompany nausea and vomiting in patients with motion sickness and certain vestibular disorders. This chapter summarizes some shared features of both phenomena. The unmasking of subclinical vestibular disorders may account for some cases of hyperemesis gravidarum. Hormonal effects on neurotransmitter function may also play a role in nausea and vomiting of pregnancy and in some vestibular disorders; however, the specific neural mechanisms of nausea and vomiting have not been identified. Until the neurochemical processes underlying these phenomena are understood, prevention and management will remain in the domain of astute, but so far limited, clinical observation.

Physiology of chemotherapy-induced emesis and antiemetic therapy.
Predictive models for evaluation of new compounds.

The physiology of emesis has been studied for several hundred years, focusing on the different centres involved and the mechanics of expulsion. The vomiting centre receives inputs from various emetic detectors such as the gut, the vestibular labyrinths and the chemoreceptor trigger zone. Emesis is a common disabling effect in motion sickness, postoperative conditions and in radio- and chemotherapy. Our current understanding of the mechanisms has been provided mainly by the recent introduction of serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonists into therapeutic use. Nevertheless, despite the considerable advances made in the understanding of the different pathways involved in emesis, there are number of areas that still require experimental investigation. Different animal and human models are available to study the physiology of emesis and to evaluate the antiemetic activity of new compounds, but they need to be predictors of clinical situations.

MORNINGWELL is the ideal choice for the symptoms of Morning Sickness as it is without drugs and chemical free, non-invasive, non-conflictory and side effect free. In fact there are no known contra-indications derived from its use.

A National Health Service (  NHS  ) Study showed 9 out of 10 pregnant women experienced a reduction or elimination of their symptoms of Nausea & Vomiting in Morning Sickness by using MORNINGWELL.

How good is the product at combating nausea and vomiting?

Clinical Research Data from the MRC Spatial Disorientation Group, Imperial College School of Medicine, London, United Kingdom proves the programme is highly effective against Nausea & Vomiting associated with Travel Sickness too!

Don't be confused - "Travel" or "Motion Sickness" is the name commonly applied to the symptoms of Nausea and Vomiting we suffer as the result of being moved about in a vehicle. A full report issued by the researchers is lodged with the NLM (United States National Library of Medicines) - see here:

Dear Dave,

 

Having been pregnant before and agonised over the associated sickness that I experienced 24 hrs a day, I was very nervous about being pregnant again.  I researched morning sickness for months before falling pregnant, and bought the MorningWell cassette in preparation.  The morning sickness kicked in around 6 weeks and I immediately started to use the tape when nausea was present.  I found that in the first week the sickness subsided significantly - it did return for the next 8 weeks but I found that playing the cassette as I went off to sleep or whilst working at the computer kept the vomiting at bay.  I also found that the following day (after playing the cassette as I went off to sleep) the nausea was significantly lessened.

 

I would recommend this product to all pregnant mothers that suffer from nausea as it was a great source of comfort to me.  I found that nothing else helped (apart from nibbling on crackers) - things like ginger ale, ginger tea, morning sickness tablets by Blackmores, or acupressure bands did nothing for me - the MorningWell tapes kept me sane during a very distressing and uncomfortable time and I am very grateful to the people who have made this tape available!
