A number of foods and candies have been marketed to help to take away morning sickness. One very popular product is the pregnancy lollipop.

Drink Your Sickness Away
Another idea to get rid of morning sickness is to drink tea. Ginger tea is said to be the most effective, as ginger has properties in it that help with vomiting and nausea. Remember, when you are looking for a good tea, search for one that is caffeine free. Caffeine has been tied to miscarriage and should be avoided during pregnancy.
