Early pregnancy is a time for hormonal changes. The ladies body adjusts to being pregnant at first. Then feelings of nausea and sickness can happen around weeks 6 to 12 weeks pregnant. Again these are due to hormonal changes happening. A pregnant lady can must eat a healthy diet in her pregnancy. If she feels sick at a particular time of day she could avoid eating then. The middle stage of pregnancy is when the ladies body if fully settled into the pregnancy. For that reason around 18 to 24 weeks pregnancy is an ideal time for a vacation. By then the nausea has gone due to the hormones staying more calm.

One of the causes would be the increase of the hormone HUMAN CHORIONIC GONADOTROPIN. Excessive vomiting of pregnant women is called hyperemesis gravidarum. Hyper = increased, Emesis = vomiting. Gravidarum = during pregnanacy.

Its all because of hormonal changes that their body undergo while giving birth to a baby. There must be a specific term for this that a person with medical background may tell, but for me being pregnant is reason enough. Along with vomiting they have tons of other things on that is not normal as well. Mood swings, willingness to eat sour dietaries and getting tired frequently are also there.
