Synopsis

Many women suffer from pregnancy sickness, with symptoms ranging from mild, temporary nausea to persistent and severe vomiting. Gestational sickness is, however, attributed to physiological rather than pathological which causes obstetricians to dismiss it as a "minor" disorder, yet for many expectant mothers it has a profound impact on their daily lives, even if only temporarily.

This book is a comprehensive review of both orthodox and complementary management options for nausea and vomiting in pregnancy. It explores the incidence, causes, effects and complications associated with pregnancy nausea and vomiting, together with a comparative study of conventional and complementary medical approaches to management and care of these women. It is aimed primarily at midwives, obstetricians, general practitioners and health visitors but may also be useful for others working with pregnant women such as National Childbirth Trust teachers, other childbirth educators and for complementary practitioners.

  • A new approach to the management of a common problem in pregnancy
  • Covers both orthodox and complementary approaches to treatment
  • Written by an acknowledged expert in the field
  • Includes an 'Inventory for Practice' guide
