And is it better to just throw up, or do things to avoid it (warm bath, belly rub, calming breathing)?

Ok, so that was more than one question ... Thanks in advance!

I definitely listen to my cravings and aversions.
If my tummy tells me to stop eating, I stop.
I try to avoid throwing up at all costs because I HATE throwing up.

Hey everyone sorry I've been out for a while but nausea hit me sooo hard last week. Plus I feel tired all the time. I take naps on my free time like no other...hehe. Anyway thank you all so much for answering my question on belly binding. I was already planning on doing it and didn't even know it. That is a huge part of my culture (Brazillian). My mom, my grandma, and aunts all did it. I'm doing it for sure too.
As far as the nausea feeling when I used to throw up before I was pregnant over something that made me feel sick I instantly felt better afterward. However I have a feeling that if I throw up now I won't feel better lol...I have nausea so bad that's enough to get me in the bathroom but then nothing happens. I'm so glad I'm not the only one feeling sick halfway through my food...lol.

Dreams- I checked those books out at my library...so excited to read them
