Brief Answer:
Detailed answer below

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear. I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Pregnancy related vomiting is due to hormonal changes in pregnancy. If she is having several episodes of vomiting, then she needs to take emcet orally, if not controlled then injection emset should be given. Along with it doxinate should be given, which is the best drug to control vomiting in pregnancy.
There is no effective home remedy to control pregnancy related vomiting.
She should avoid spicy and oily food, take a toast or biscuit as soon as she wakes up in the morning, in the bed itself and then do other activities. She should avoid drinking too much water or tea empty stomach.
She should eat whatever she likes, and this vomiting gradually decrease after 12 weeks of pregnancy.
Hope you found the answer helpful. Please do get back for further queries.
Wishing you both good health.

Thx doctor. Any liquid intake comes out immediately in 15 mins in last 2 days. Will she become weak physically and get tired. What should we do now, other than the medicines to keep her fit and strong?

Brief Answer:
Needs admission

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, if she is having complete intolerance of oral fluids, then she is having the condition of hyperemesis gravidarum. This is an extreme form of vomiting in pregnancy.
She needs admission in hospital as soon as possible so that she can be given intravenous fluids to maintain fluid balance of the body, and injections to control the vomiting.
She should stop taking orally till she starts tolerating fluids.
Hope you found the answer helpful. Please do get back for further queries.
