Morning Sickness
- Soluble fibre for morning sickness. Karen Hurd’s original article is no longer available but this blog post pretty much covers it. See also, Food Sources of Soluble Fibre – from Homemade Granola.
- Anti-nausea snacks for morning sickness. Consumption of apple during pregnancy is reported to reduce the risk of asthma. And my daughter has no peanut/treenut issues so common in Australia.

Other
- Its not pregnancy related, but I was pregnant while organising the move to Australia, and I used the Freecycle Network to give away items we couldn’t take with us. Items that were still useful but not worth transporting from Moving to Australia with a Baby on Board. Here in Australia there are many local community “Buy Nothing” Facebook groups to achieve the same thing.
