Obviously you need a decent diet whilst breastfeeding in order to give your baby the nourishment he/she needs, so how did you cope with that whilst having morning sickness?
My son was 13 months old, so not a young baby, when I found out I was pregnant. I actually found nursing to reduce my morning sickness. If I started feeling nauseated, I nursed and had a snack at the same time. My son ended up weaning himself at 19 1/2 months when I was 26 weeks along.
Lavender helped a lot with me. A little lavender essential oil or there are lavender suckers you can get.
Also, eating small frequent meals
Try not to worry too much in those early morning sickness days. Your baby will get the nourishment he/she needs despite your diet, though you may suffer a bit.
Drink Red Raspberry Leaf Tea, it offers good nourishment for your body and can help with your milk supply. Take your prenatals. And just try and eat and rest when you can.
First thing in the morning I would suck on a piece of hard candy until I could get some breakfast. Cough drops worked really well for me. They have special candy for morning sickness, but it was expensive and didn’t work any better than regular suckers for me.
If you get up at night to go to the restroom. Try eating a snack then. Also I used ginger tablets and they worked wonders. Safe while breastfeeding too.
if you want to stop the morning sickness just get yourself a pair of travel sick bands for your wrists it works!!!!!
