Hello.., thanks for asking on HealthReplies.com
Regarding complaints of weakness, no appetite, nausea and vomiting that you feel at the age of 14 weeks of pregnancy, it is normal. This condition is better known as "morning sickness". Morning sickness generally lasts until the age of 14-16 weeks of pregnancy, but if this complaint continues for more than 16 weeks even until birth it is called hyperemesis gravidarum. Symptoms that appear between morning sickness and hyperemesis gravidarum are generally the same, but the difference apart from the time is the severity of the symptoms.
Morning sickness is caused by:
Hormonal changes in the first 3 months of pregnancy
Pregnant with first child
Family history of morning sickness
Pregnant with twins
History of having drunk driving
Stress
Excess weight
Hyperemesis gravidarum can interfere with daily activities, can adversely affect the patient's physical and psychological health and the growth of the baby in the womb. If nausea, vomiting is felt to be severe and continuous, it is advisable to consult an obstetrician directly so that further examination and appropriate treatment can be carried out. To reduce the complaints you feel, there are several things you can do at home, such as:
Drink lots of water by drinking little by little so you don't get sick and vomit
Avoid smells that can cause nausea
Enough rest
Wear comfortable and not tight clothes, especially at the waist
